Simens M60 advanced traffic controller

189 Siemens Road and City Mobility has unveiled a new version of its m60 advanced traffic controller (ATC) software that acts as the intersection management nerve centre for small, medium and large cities.

Built on LINUX architecture, the new software complies with the latest ATC standard, making it easier to host third-party applications while remaining compatible with previous versions of Siemens electronically programmed actuated controller (SEPAC) software.

The ability to convert legacy controllers to the latest ATC standard without the need to purchase new equipment reduces costs for transportation agencies by up to 50%.

The m60 provides multiple Ethernet, USB and additional industry-specific interfaces that simplify backward and forward compatibility and includes Siemens Multiview Display, allowing the user to view an active status window while making configuration changes to the database.
