Abstract

In a fail-safe arrangement for an anti-skid brake control system, several related pairs of sensor and control signals are produced only in certain possible combinations. The fail-safe arrangement checks each pair of signals and produces an error signal if a non-conventional combination of any of the pairs of signals occurs. In response to the error signal, the automatic anti-skid control system is disabled in such a way as to allow continued manual brake operation.
