Work with the hardware-software complex of an automated process development system is as follows.

Based on the applications, the network administrator using AWP 2 (Fig. 1) of the upper level subcomplex opens access for AWP 3-8 users of the upper and lower level subcomplexes to the databases and software applications of the automated system located on server 1.

When setting the task to develop a certain type of technological process for repairing a track, the technologist of the technical department of the track service using AWP 3 and the technologist of the distance track using AWP 7 receive input data from the AWP 4 of the head of the technical department of the track service.

In the same way, the technologist of the production and technological department of the Directorate for repairing the track, using AWP 6, and the technologist of the track machine station, using AWP 8, receive input data from AWP 5 of the head of the production and technological department of the Directorate for repairing the track.

All the aforementioned workstations are connected to the information channel of the database server 1 to provide access to the modules of the automated process development system (Fig. 2), while the control level modules, namely module 9 "Workplace Administrator" and module 10 "Electronic Editor of reference books ”provide the possibility of the functioning of modules accessible from workstations of the upper and lower levels of the hardware-software complex.

Using module 11 “Viewing the electronic reference book”, AWP users search for the required standards and apply these norms in the document under development, which eliminates input errors. At the same time, there is no need to additionally recalculate the time norms, since the user is given an already calculated operational time norm for the adopted work meter separately for workers (person / min), machine drivers (person / min) and mechanisms (machine / min).

Using the functions of module 12 "View library sheets" search and browse the lists of labor costs according to technical standards (Fig. 3) of a typical technological process, save them to the user's library and use them as a template for further development, adjustment or processing of the technological process.

Or, using the functions of module 13, “Template editor”, select and automatically enter the names of technological processes, work stages, and technical norms of time with numerical values. In the process of working with the module, the user changes such parameters as the amount of work, the coefficient for the passage of trains, the number of crews, etc. The final form of the statement of labor costs according to technical standards is displayed on the monitor screen for preview, saved and, if necessary, printed on paper.

After that, through module 14 “Linear graph editor”, users make a choice of the type of technological process and the name of the work schedule, automatically display on the monitor screen from the module “Template editor” a statement of labor costs according to technical standards, containing information on the name of the work with a duration in minutes and the composition of the brigades with the number of fitters and drivers. This module allows the user to build several options for linear schedules of the technological process in order to select the best option for the production of work (an example of a specific implementation of the linear graph is shown in figure 4).

Using module 15 “Complex Schedule Editor” and its blocks “Workforce Schedule Editor” and “Work Distribution Schedule Editor by Day”, as well as track profile information from the “Technical Passport of the Enterprise”, users bind the schedule of work on the technological process repairing the path to its profile, while receiving a comprehensive schedule that displays the flow of the process in dynamics. A comprehensive schedule allows you to get visual information about the technical means used to repair the track at a specific section of the track, at a specific point in time.

Users of the upper and lower levels using module 16 "Editor explanatory note" form the text of the explanatory note to the process. To do this, select the name of the technological process and display on the monitor screen a title page with the name of the technological process and details for the signature of persons who agree and approve the set of technological documents. Using the button with the function “Work with the text of the explanatory note”, users open a window with a text template and edit the explanatory note using “labels”. After editing the explanatory note, it is viewed, saved and, if necessary, printed out.

Upon completion of work with a set of technological documentation, the technologists of the structural units of the upper and lower links working at the automated workstations of the subcomplexes of the upper and lower levels provide information about it to the heads of the respective divisions, namely, to AWP 4 heads of the technical department of the track service or AWP 5 heads of production -technological department of the Directorate for repair of the track.
