TRITEC was responsible for all the specification and design of the control electronics and operating software for the Blocentre. The system was based on an embedded PC linking through a backplane to the various control interface cards.

TRITEC worked along side industrial designers to develop a clear and effective user interface using a plasma flat panel screen and custom designed membrane keypad.

Working in collaboration with mechanical designers from Blolite, TRITEC also developed a novel catenary method and sensor array to monitor and control the speed of fibre delivery.
