The invention relates to a device for detecting positions of parts of a rail switch, the device comprising at least one continuous distance sensor for producing an output representative of measured distance between a pivotable part and a fixed part of the switch, the output being connected to a circuit having stored therein characteristic curve data representative of the switch operating between open and closed positions, the circuit being configured to connect with the sensor output and the characteristic curve data to perform two separate evaluations, the first evaluation being a distance evaluation and the second evaluation being an evaluation as to whether the sensor is functioning properly.
L'invention concerne un dispositif servant à détecter les positions de parties pivotantes d'un aiguillage, par exemple des rails à lame (1, 2). Ledit dispositif comporte au moins un capteur (4, 5, 6, 7) se présentant sous la forme d'un capteur de distance continu. La sortie de ce capteur est reliée à un circuit (10) permettant deux évaluations séparées. Une première évaluation se fait sous la forme d'une évaluation de distance et une seconde évaluation se fait sous la forme d'un contrôle fonctionnel du capteur. L'invention concerne également un procédé d'évaluation de signaux.
