Abstract
An activation system is described which controls the activation of at least one control means installed in a vehicle including a braking system including a main brake pipe containing a fluid. The control means assumes a resting state in which it consumes a first value of electrical energy and an active state in which it consumes a second value of electrical energy, greater than the first value of electrical energy. The activation system measures the pressure value of the fluid within the main brake pipe and generate an activation signal when the pressure value of the fluid within said main brake pipe is equal to or less than a first predetermined threshold value. The control means receives the activation signal and switches from the resting state to the active state when the control means is in the resting state and receives the activation signal.
