1.2 User
Typical users of the RDI 3000 are:
 the work planner who prepares safety plans and assigns the locations for installing the
RDI 3000 on the railway track;
 the installer, the track worker who installs the RDI 3000 on the railway track;
 the operator, the track worker who switches the RDI 3000 on the railway track.
The RDI 3000 is supported by the web interface MTinfo 3000 and the app. The work planner
will frequently use MTinfo 3000 web and the installer and operator will frequently use the app.
Every user of the RDI 3000 must meet the following requirements:
 certified to work with the RDI 3000;
 authorized by the user company’s perspective for the right access and user rights for
MTinfo 3000.
After certification, the user receives a personal MTinfo 3000 account. See 3.6 for the terms of
use.

Figure 3-1: RDI 3000
The function of the LEDs and the flag is to provide visual warning signals when a train
approaches a safety zone. The function of the detonator is to provide an acoustic signal up to
162 dB(A) to warn both the track worker and the train driver when a train or wagon
accidentally enters a safety zone.
The detonator must be placed on the detonator plate during the installation of the RDI 3000.
NOTE
The detonators do not belong to the delivery scope of the RDI 3000.
