Analogue control systems offer a number of advantages, including the ability to easily set the control parameters (e.g. the speed range, PID and proportional band) and the possibility of isochronous operation (proportional band of zero). In addition to their excellent control properties, a further benefit of analogue systems is that there is no need for software or a programming unit – merely a small screwdriver to set the potentiometers. Analogue control systems are ideal for applications requiring constant speed control (generator systems).
- Easy to adjust
- Fast commissioning
- Suitable for different engine sizes
Traction control panel with Viking35 ECU, performing the following core functionality:
Collects system status data from ECU via serial communications and hardwired inputs as well as engine and power car status data via hardwired analogue and digital inputs (on external antenna) to produce statistical and alarm 'black box' data. 
Provides regulated 28 VDC, 300 W power supply output for the traction control and monitoring units, derived from a power car supply input.
