          Application 08/801,918                                                      


               at least one brake operator means mounted to said housing              
          means for defining a desired brake action pressure;                         
               a display means on said housing means for displaying said              
          desired brake action pressure; and                                          
               an electronic controller means in said housing means for               
          determining the position of said operator means and driving                 
          said display means to instantly display said desired braking                
          action pressure as a function of the determined position of                 
          said operator means.                                                        
               22.  An electronic brake controller for an                             
          electropneumatic brake system comprising:                                   
               at least one brake operator whose position defines a                   
          desired brake action;                                                       
               a display;                                                             
               an electronic controller which determines the position of              
          the operator, determines the desired braking action as a                    
          function of the determined position of the operator and drives              
          the display to instantly display the determined desired                     
          braking action.                                                             


                                    THE EVIDENCE
