Diagnostic system for a rail vehicle
First Claim
1. A visual diagnostic system for a rail vehicle having multiple assets, comprising:
- a data interface configured to;
receive a data stream from a wayside unit, wherein the data stream includes values of a plurality of parameters measured by the wayside unit;
receive geo-information associated with a geographic location of the rail vehicle; and
receive configuration-information including an order in which the multiple assets are arranged in the rail vehicle;
a memory device configured to store the data stream; and
a controller in communication with the data interface and the memory device, the controller being configured to;
determine, from the geo-information and the configuration-information, a geographic location of each of the multiple assets;
identify, from the received data stream and the determined geographic location of each of the multiple assets, an asset that is experiencing an operational status that is one of outside a normal limit or trending toward falling outside a normal limit, the asset being selected from the multiple assets; and
render for display in a user interface a visual representation of the rail vehicle, the visual representation including a graphical icon associated with the identified asset.

Abstract
A visual diagnostic system for a rail vehicle having multiple assets is disclosed. The visual diagnostic system may have a data interface configured to receive a data stream from a wayside unit. The data stream includes values of a plurality of parameters measured made by the wayside unit. The data interface may also be configured to receive geo-information and configuration-information. The system further includes a memory device configured to store the data stream and a controller configured to determine, from the geo-information and the configuration-information, a geographic location of each of the multiple assets. The controller is further configured to determine prognostic information associated with an operational status of each of the multiple assets. The controller may further render for display in a user interface a visual representation of the rail vehicle with the prognostic information for each asset of the rail vehicle.

16. A method for providing visual information on a rail vehicle having multiple assets, comprising:
-
receiving a data stream from a wayside unit, wherein the data stream includes values of a plurality of parameters measured by the wayside unit; receiving geo-information associated with a geographic location of the rail vehicle; receiving configuration-information including an order in which the multiple assets are arranged in the rail vehicle; determining, from the geo-information and the configuration-information, a geographic location of each of the multiple assets; identifying, from the received data stream and the determined geographic location of each of the multiple assets, an asset that is experiencing an operational status that is one of outside a normal limit or trending toward falling outside a normal limit, the asset being selected from the multiple assets; and rendering for display in a user interface a visual representation of the rail vehicle, the visual representation including a graphical icon associated with the identified asset. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)

20. A computer programmable medium having executable instructions stored thereon for completing a method for providing visual information on a rail vehicle having multiple assets, the method comprising:
-
receiving a data stream from a wayside unit, wherein the data stream includes values of a plurality of parameters measured by the wayside unit; receiving geo-information associated with a geographic location of the rail vehicle; receiving configuration-information including an order in which the multiple assets are arranged in the rail vehicle; determining, from the geo-information and the configuration-information, a geographic location of each of the multiple assets; identifying, from the received data stream and the determined geographic location of each of the multiple assets, an asset that is experiencing an operational status that is one of outside a normal limit or trending toward falling outside a normal limit, the asset being selected from the multiple assets; and rendering for display in a user interface a visual representation of the rail vehicle, the visual representation including a graphical icon associated with the identified asset.
