PARALLELS ACCESS ATCS MONITOR SOFTWARE

How Does TrainMon5 Work? In the client-server model, TrainMon5 works by contacting an active ATCS data feed server, receiving data from it and then transforming that data it into a object oriented data structure which then can be transmitted over the web to connected users. Per the authors suggestion, think of TrainMon5 as being an integration of both ATCS and a where/how/go to guide for general railfanning and places of interest. Also, TrainMon5 does not have all of the capabilities that ATCSMonitor has, only the pertinent ones for enabling web-based monitoring.

As such, TrainMon5 cannot function without ATCSMonitor. TrainMon5 is tied to the same back-end server aggregators (with permission) that ATCSMonitor uses. TrainMon5 is not a replacement of ATCSMonitor, only an extension of it. It was introduced as a cross platform web-based solution to allow train hobbyist to be able to track nearby trains for railroads that utilized the ATCS (Advanced Train Control System) technology over radio antenna transmissions. It provides access to semi real-time data about the locations of nearby trains to help give you the edge in your sport of train watching by allowing you to determine where the best spot to view or record your next train.ĭevelopment for TrainMon5 began in 2016 and went live in 2017.
