- taking into account up to 52 detectors
TAG
Coordination and remote monitoring module similar to PIAF II.
Simplified version and not compatible with the PIAF II standard.
SYSTEL - SYSTEL 2
Low cost remote monitoring module.
The SYSTEL 2 is an evolution designed to be compatible with the Minitel.
PIAF II
Coordination and remote monitoring module similar to PEGASE but based on the second generation PIAF standard.
PEGASE
Coordination and remote monitoring module based on the PIAF standard (light cabinet computer driver).
The coordination of intersections was done by the time received by France-Inter radio waves.
As part of remote monitoring, the information was sent to a Galaxie PC.
It could be installed with a Galileo controller
CIMAG - STC
Zone coordinator with microprocessor with serial transmission and traffic analysis able to control up to 25 intersections, working with the AGIR controller.
Remote control stations (STC) were associated with it, acting as a transmission interface between the CIMAG, the AGIR controller and the measurement points.
AGIS - GASEL
The AGIS hardwired logic electronic zone coordinator was used with the Gama series controllers.
It could be associated with another traffic analysis unit called GASEL.
DIAG 120
Digital computer from the 1970s to optimize the cycles and coordination of several intersections from measurements transmitted by detectors.
Device installed in junction cabinets or in a central control station.
COORDINATION
Electronic coordination module from the 1970s that can be installed on the following controllers:
- AG158
- AG165
- AG167
-MAG 20/21
Additional equipments for traffic controller
GAMA A277
Gama A277 is a controller with cabled electronic system, marketed between 1975 and 1980.
Its capacity was only 2 lines of traffic lights: 1 car line and 1 pedestrian line, or 2 car lines.

TAG (OCTM 32)
The TAG is a microprocessor controller designed in the late 1970s in association with the manufacturer Omera (where it was marketed as the OCTM 32). Garbarini designed the controller while Omera designed the software.
It was tested in 1978 by the city of Paris, which chose it with two other competing models to install its first microprocessor controllers. More than 250 copies will be in service in the capital, the last of which was deposited in March 2017.
OMEGA
Omega was a controller works by microprocessors for a small capacity, marketed between 1996 and 2003.
Its maximal capacity was 4 cars lines and 4 pedestrians lines.
Gallery controller with 48 lines
Déportation crossroads - Fresnes
The Gallery controller is originally designed to accommodate a maximum of 36 lines of lights.
But technically, nothing stands in the way of exceeding this number. On exceptionally large intersections, a fourth power rack can be added, which carries a maximum of 48 rows of lights.
5 intersections are equipped with such a controller: the first was installed in Lille, two in Fresnes, one in Choisy-le-Roi, and another in Bordeaux.
