Out-of-the-box G2000 component interfaces
Railnova’s real-time remote monitoring device Railster enables you to connect to and to monitor the following components on the G2000 out of the box:
Battery
Monitor battery voltage, capacity, current, and the status of both the main and the supporting battery when your G2000 locomotives are running and when they’re turned off.
MVB
Monitor MVB fault codes in real time, stream live parameters and turn them into actionable information, access or create your own counters for accurate maintenance planning.
GPS
Track the location of your locomotives, the distance they traveled, their speed and their GPS history. Use real-time GPS data for geofencing alerts.
Voith transmission
Monitor Voith fault codes in real time and automatically turn live parameters from the Voith transmission (L620reU2) into actionable information.
Caterpillar engine
Monitor live engine parameters and capture engine hours for an always up-to-date preventive maintenance planning, or for billing purposes.
Fuel
Track and be alerted about (low) fuel levels and refuels, follow up on fuel consumption per route to achieve fuel savings.

Out-of-the-box use cases for G2000 locomotives
Battery monitoring
A low battery voltage, or battery failure can cause delays, cancellations and even damages to a locomotive battery. Real-time battery monitoring and battery alerts enable you to detect anomalies and avoid battery failures on your G2000 fleet.
Fault code monitoring
Retrieve fault codes from the Voith diagnostics port, MVB bus or other systems, make it easy to cut through irrelevant fault codes and noise by setting up your own (notification) rules and enable people to act on critical fault codes.
Fuel monitoring
Monitor fuel levels and fuel consumption in real time. Be alerted about low fuel levels and refuels, and follow up on fuel consumption per route and load for e.g. fuel saving initiatives.
Geolocation
Keep track of the location and speed of your assets, view GPS history, track traveled kms for maintenance or billing purposes and set up geofence alerts to alert you of location changes or to send alerts to the right people based on the location of your assets.
Billing
Monitor and report on the actual usage of your assets and on energy consumption for billing purposes, or track refuels for billing reconciliation.
Digital maintenance planning & communication
Schedule events online and keep a full overview of the planning and progress of all corrective and preventive maintenance interventions for your entire fleet in one place. Share your planning and intervention details with clients, maintainers or other stakeholders.
Usage-based maintenance
Capture readily available real-time counter data, enter counters manually or compute your own to automate your preventive maintenance scheduling based on the actual usage of your G2000 assets.
Corrective maintenance workflow
Have your drivers or hotline personnel report corrective events straight from their phones, tablets or computers. Use QR-codes in your locomotives for fast and user-friendly defect reporting.
Data access
Already have systems in place to analyse G2000 data and to make it actionable? No problem, you can use the Railster to connect to the relevant data sources and to stream the data to your own systems in real time.
Data exploration
Not sure yet what kind of data you can access from your G2000 assets or not sure what you can actually do with that data? Connect the Railster or Railster Development Kit to any data source and explore the available data to identify new use cases.
