DEFINITION

Classification: 246/38

(under subclass 34) Systems in which the home indication is actuated or controlled by the presence or absence of current and the distant indication by the change of some characteristic of the track-circuit current.

(1) Note. As line-wire distant control is dispensed with, the system is sometimes referred to in the art as "wireless", but should not be confused with the true or Hertzian-wave

"wireless" of subclass 30.
