RCKR
RCKR - Code reception checking relay – This

senses the progress of the coding circuit at the
receiving end and when picked up, terminates
the pulse that is being received by opening the
line circuit. This relay prepares the instrument
for automatic answer back.

RDR
•RDR - Receiving delivery relay – This stores

the first pulse of any code when it is
negative and remains energized till code
reception is complete and relay 3CR de-
energizes.

CTR
CTR - Code Transmitting relay – This relay by

its state of energization or de-energization
decides whether the instrument is transmitting
or receiving respectively. Its front contacts
connect the line battery to line while its back
contacts connect CRR
(N) / CRR(R) to line.

CTR
. There is a time delay circuit which checks

the duration of a pulse on line. If due to any
trouble at the receiving end, the coding circuit
functions irregularly, CTR de-energized,
resets all relays and re-initiates the code
afresh.

CIRCUIT

CTPR
CTPR - Repeater of CTR. This repeats the

CTR while the instrument is transmitting code,
but remains energized till the complete answer
back code is received. A time delay circuit
measures the time taken by the other
instrument to answer back. If the instrument
does not respond within a definite time, CTPR
releases and reset all relays and code
transmission is initiated all over again.
LCCPR
LCCPR - Line Closed Code Reception Relay.

This picks up when Line Closed code is
received from line. When picked up this
enables the TGTR or TCFR to release and
switches on CTR for answer back when
necessary. This allows line closed code
transmission as an automatic reply code only
when the enquiry code is line closed code and
not otherwise.
PTR AND NTR
PTR & NTR - Positive & Negative Transmitting Relay.
These relays switch on positive and negative pulse on

line by connecting the line battery to line appropriately.
Stick feed to these over TCKR front contact ensures

the presence of pulse on line till the line circuit is
opened.

PTR AND NTR
These relays are use respectively to connect on

positive/negative of dthe line battery line at the
transmitting instrument. Only one relay can pick up at
a time and this depends on the condition of the
coding relays 1CR, 2CR, 3CR and the Instrument
Position deciding relays TCFR and TGTR provided
the relay CTR is in energized conditions.

PTR AND NTR
Once TCKR is picked up the relay PTR/NTR sticks

through its front contact to ensure the presence of a
pulse on line till the line circuit is opened either by the
receiving instrument or by the transmitting instrument
itself by dropping of the relay CTR. The 2nd case takes
place only if the receiving Instrument fails to open the
line circuit at the end of a pulse.

LR
LR - Coding Relay. This is the relay that is

reacted on first by CRR(R) or TCKR while the
instrument is receiving or transmitting
respectively. By picking up and dropping
alternately as required it activates progresses
and terminates the functioning of the coding
circuit. So, the feeding circuits to this relay
consists of two branches, one with TCKR and
PTR/NTR contacts and the other CRR(R),
CRR(N) contacts.

LPR
1) LPR- Repeater of LR. This repeats LR, but with

a difference. This sustains itself even during the
release period of LR by means of a time delay
circuit to monitor the duration of space period. If
the appearance of the next pulse on line or
closing of the line circuit after formation of pulse is
delayed due to irregular functioning of circuits,
LPR releases to reset all coding relays, even if the
code progress is halfway.

LPR
2) This relay virtually by its state indicates the

activity or otherwise of the coding circuit. During
reception of an isolated positive pulse not as part
of a regular code, its back contact connects the
battery to the bell, while during reception of a
regular code its front contact connects it to LR.

1CR,2CR AND 3CR
• 1CR, 2CR & 3CR - Coding Relays. These relays

pick up and drop in a pre-determined manner to
progress coding. The energization or otherwise of
these mark the various stages of coding. As said
earlier, commencement of a pulse is decided by the
transmitting coding circuit and the termination by
the receiving coding circuit.

1CR,2CR AND 3CR
• Among these relays 1CR is having two

branches circuits one with TCKR and other with
RDR respectively effective during transmission and
reception of code. Zener diode is provided across
the condenser of 3CR relay to have a constant time
delay irrespective of the voltage variation.

P2R AND N2R
• P2R & N2R - Second positive and second

negative pulse receiving relays. These
store the polarity of the second pulse of a
code that is received. Front contacts of
these are used in the circuit of the final
relay.

TOLTR
• TOLTR - TOL code transmitting relay. At the
sending station, this relay picks up when the
ASTR and ASR drop successively due to the
train occupying the FVT while entering the block
section. Consequently, CTR picks up to transmit
TOL code. At the receiving station, this picks up
in response to TOL code received from line.
The buzzer sounds intermittently, when the SM
acknowledges the TOL code by pressing BCB to
transmit a bell code, the TOLAR at the sending
station drops and causes TOLTR to drop to stop
the transmission of TOL Code.
TOLAR
• TOLAR - TOL Acknowledgement Relay. In

the Token less system of working, a train
entering a block section on Line Clear
initiates its own protection arrangement.
This relay comes into play from the time
Line Clear is obtained till the receiving
station acknowledges the TOL code.

TOLAR (cont..)
• At the sending station, this picks up

during reception of the second pulse of
TGT code and releases when receiving
SM transmits a positive pulse while
acknowledging TOL code. At the receiving
station, this picks up during reception of
second pulse of TCF code and releases
when the second pulse of the TOL code is
received.
PCR
• PCR - Pole Changing Relay. All

operative codes begin with a negative
pulse. Positive and Negative pulses are
interchanged in TGT and TCF codes. To
reset these conditions, Line Closed code
with positive alone as second and third
pulse is employed. This relay generates
these pulses. It picks up at the end that
initiates Line Closed operation.

TGTR
1) TGTR - Train Going To Relay. Type - QL1. This
is a magnetic latch relay, latching its armature
in the operated position only. The relay has two
coils (i) Operating and (ii) Releasing. When the
operating coil is energized, the back contacts
break and front contacts make.
2) Once operated thus, the armature is latched in

that position. Thus, the front contacts are made
till the release coil is fed with current in the
appropriate direction.
TGTR
3)The back contacts are designated as

‘Normal’ while the front contacts as
'Reverse'. This picks up on successful
reception of TGT code and releases when
Line Closed code is received. Its reverse
contacts are proved in the LSS control
circuits.

TCFR
• TCFR - Train Coming From Relay -Type

- QL1. This is also a latch relay like TGTR.
It picks up when TCF code is received
and releases on reception of Line Closed
Code.
• TGTPR & TCFPR - Repeaters of
reverse conditions of TGTR & TCFR
respectively.

TER
• TER - Time Element Relay. Before Line

Clear is cancelled when the train has not
left the station, a time interval of the order
of 2 minutes is required to elapse. To
achieve an Electronic Timer is used

ASCR -Advanced Starter Control Relay.
•
This relay proves that conditions for
dispatching a train on Line Clear are
fulfilled and that TOL condition can be
established subsequently when the train
passes the LSS. Also, it drops and locks
the signal when cancellation is initiated.
Front contacts of this are inserted in the
signal control circuits.
SHKR
• SHKR - Shunt Key Checking Relay.

This relay can pick up only when the key
is in the transmitter and locked. Picking up
of this relay is a pre-requisite for activation
of CTR, TCFR and TGTR Relays

CONDENCER AND RESISTOR UNITS
• The condensers and resistors

required in the time delay circuits of
various relays are conveniently integrated
into a plug in base, which goes into a jack
board. Connections are made to the
terminals on the jack board. This type of
construction allows spares to be kept
ready for quick replacements at site in the
event of a failure without affecting train
services.

• TOLTR - TOL code transmitting relay. At the sending station, this relay picks
up when the ASTR and ASR drop successively due to the train occupying
the FVT while entering the block section. Consequently, CTR picks up to
transmit TOL code. At the receiving station, this picks up in response to TOL
code received from line. The buzzer sounds intermittently, when the SM
acknowledges the TOL code by pressing BCB to transmit a bell code, the
TOLAR at the sending station drops and causes TOLTR to drop to stop the
transmission of TOL Code.S-23 Tokenless block instrumets

INSTRUMEN
FAILURES AND TROUBLE
SHOOTING
PBBI SUSPENDED
CIRCUMSTENCES
The Push Button Token less Block Instruments shall
be considered to be interrupted and their working
suspended in the following circumstances
1) When attention cannot be obtained direct on the

Block Instrument.
2) When signalson the Bell are received indistinctly or fail

altogether.
3) If the LSS fails to return to ON position as a train

passes it.
4) If the TAR (Train Arrival) buzzer fails even after
the complete passage of the train inside the
FSS over the LVT Circuit ( May be due to
failure of the LVT circuit)
Note: Though FSS may go to ON automatically

by passage of the train, FSS shall not be put
back to Normal position unless the whole of
the train has arrived inside the FSS. Failure to
adhere to this will result in a Block Failure and
the TAR buzzer will not sound under such
circumstances.
5) When there is reason to believe that there is
contact between the Block line wire and any
other circuit:
Note :(i) If a contact exists between the Block
wire and any other circuit, there is a
possibility of irregular beats on the bell. A
contact between two block wires would cause
signals given on one instrument to be
repeated on the neighboring instrument.
• Not (ii) The Telephone connected with
e
instrument for
the train signalling, also shall be
considered as having failed and working by
means of the telephone would not be
resumed until authorized by the Signal
engineer or any other authorized person.
6) If the Instrument or its battery counter is found
unlocked or seal missing.
7) When TOL buzzer fails at the receiving
station, even after display of TOL indication
on the Block Instrument.
Note: (i) If a following train in the same
direction working on paper line clear ticket
actuates the TAR buzzer, block working may
be resumed.
Note: (ii) If there is no following train but there
is a train to proceed in the opposite direction
the same will be dispatched on paper line
clear ticket. The SM at other end should use
cancel push button as in the case of a train
pushing back and receive the train on
proper signals after which block working
may be resumed without waiting for S&T
staff.
8) When Material Train etc. is required to be
taken into a Block Section after Line Block
has been imposed in accordance with
Appendix V to the G & SR.
Note: Block Working with Line Clear

exchange by any means shall to suspended
and the Material train etc. started on an
‘Authority to proceed without Line Clear’.
After the Line Block has been removed the
SMs themselves shall resume block working.
9) When a train is required to enter a block section
which is obstructed by an accident or any other
reason.
Note: Block Working with Line Clear Exchange by any

means shall be suspended and trains started on an
‘authority to proceed without Line Clear’. On the
obstruction being removed, the SM themselves shall
resume block working.
10) If it is known that the Instrument is defective in any

way not specified above.
PBBI OTHER FAILURES
1) If the TGT indication is not displayed on the
instrument when operated or TOL indication is not
displayed on the Instrument after the train has entered
the Block Section.
2) If the LSS cannot be cleared even when the

instrument displays TGT indication.
3) If the LSS can be cleared without displaying TGT

indication on the Block Instrument.
Note: This test shall be made when SM take charge of
the Block Instrument and an entry made in the Train
Signal Register (TSR)
PBBI OTHER
FAILURES
4) Since the OFF aspect of the LSS is the
authority to enter the block section in the
Token-less territory, in case LSS does not
assume OFF aspect, the Block working
should be suspended.
5) When a train arrives at a station when the

Block Instrument is not displaying TOL
indication.
Note: In this case irregularities shall be
reported as an accident.
PBBI OTHER FAILURES
6) If the Line closed indication can be displayed

on the Instrument before complete arrival of the
train.
7)If the TGT indication cannot be cancelled

even though proper manipulation has
been done.
8)If the TGT indication can be cancelled without

the co-operation of the SM at the other end of
the Block Section
ALTERNATIVE MEANS OF
COMMUNICATION
In the event of failure or suspension of Block

Instruments Line Clear shall be obtained by
any one of the alternative means of
communications in the order of priority
indicated below:
a)Telephone attached to the Block

Instrument,
b)Station to Station fixed telephones
wherever available,
ALTERNATIVE MEANS OF
COMMUNICATION
c) Fixed telephone such as Railway auto

phones and BSNL telephones,
d) Control telephone and
e) VHF set.
Shall be worked in accordance with the
procedure laid down in G&SR 14.01
All failures shall be reported promptly to all
concerned.
