1.0 Introduction
This section summarizes the purpose of this guide, describes the SmartScanNG² system, tells
how to comment on this guide, tells how to order more copies of this guide, and covers STC's
standard warranty. It also covers the cautions and disclaimers of which the customer should
be aware of.
1.1 Purpose of This Guide
The technical staff at Southern Technologies Corporation (STC) created the SmartScanNG²
defect detection system. It is designed to monitor moving trains and report certain conditions
detected on these trains. The SmartScanNG² system is modular and firmware-driven.
Hardware and firmware can be changed to meet the unique needs of a given railroad. Thus,
some of the components that make up a SmartScanNG² system differ from railroad to railroad.
This guide covers the portion of the SmartScanNG² system that is housed within the wayside
enclosure. It describes the functionality, installation, and operation of these components.
1.2 SmartScanNG² - Wayside Enclosure Components
In this guide, the structure that houses the SmartScanNG² is called the "wayside enclosure."
This structure, which comes in many shapes and sizes, can be any appropriate waterproof
enclosure located adjacent to the tracks. It goes by many other names, such as bungalow,
location case, apparatus housing, and equipment enclosure.
Attached to the inside of most wayside enclosures is:
• One SmartScanNG² detector per track
• One power subsystem per SmartScanNG² detector
Attached to the outside of most wayside enclosures is:
• One antenna per radio
• One shielded temperature probe per SmartScanNG² detector
1.3 Cautions
Contact with electrically active parts could result in sparks, burns, and electric shock. Because
of this, you should avoid all electrical hazards when installing, wiring, operating, and
maintaining the SmartScanNG² system. Failure to do so could result in damage to the
equipment or serious injury to you.
