(Case No. 6996) ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A vital circuit network, equivalent to a two element, alternating current track relay used as a synchronous detector, has a first input transformer directly coupled across the local track circuit source and a second input transformer coupled across the track rails through a band pass filter tuned to the track circuit frequency. The transformers are designed to normally produce secondary output signals of the same range, which are connected into a series circuit network including a second band pass filter, a varistor, a full-wave rectifier, and a protective fuse, with a biased track relay connected across the rectifier D. C. output. From the two voltage signals in the series network, the varistor produces a product current signal which is rectified to provide an output sufficient to pick up the track relay only when both input signals are present, are of the track circuit frequency, and are within a predetermined phase relationship. The varistor circuit network has a sharp rejection of input signals outside the predetermined phase relationship or of a nonselected frequency.
