THE INVENTION
The invention relates to an electronic brake controller
for an electropneumatic railway brake system, the controller
being designed to deter an operator from overshooting the
amount of braking effort intended to be applied.
Representative claims 1, 16 and 22 read as follows:
1. An electronic brake controller for an
electropneumatic brake system comprising:
a discrete housing to be mounted in an electropneumatic

at least one brake operator mounted to said housing and
whose position defines a desired brake action;
a display on said housing;
an output on said housing providing operator position
signals;
an electronic controller in said housing which determines
the position of said operator and provides said operator
position signals to said output and drives said display to
instantly display said desired braking action as a function of
the determined position of said operator.
16. An electronic brake controller for an
