In case the impact of one of the errors as described in point 7.2.10.1 is identified as unacceptable on the Infrastructure Manager’s network, the Infrastructure Manager, based on the information previously provided by on-board manufacturers within the ERA questionnaires, shall identify the ERTMS vehicles authorised to run on its network or being authorised to run on its network that have not implemented a solution which mitigates the interoperability or safety problem caused by the specification error. In case of significant impact on existing vehicles running on its network reported by on-board manufacturers (with the support of operators), the Infrastructure Manager can voluntarily decide to evaluate the implementation of temporary trackside mitigation measures in order to facilitate existing vehicles to continue their services until on-board error corrections are implemented.

The Infrastructure Manager shall register in the related RINF ([^E0038]) parameter which error corrections are applicable (i.e. the errors preventing normal service in the network) for the on-board. Error corrections shall be registered: for the first time no later than 6 months after the publication by the Agency of the Baseline Compatibility Analysis (BCA) including the answers to the questionnaires; and whenever there is a change in the applicable error corrections due to new or upgrade trackside implementation within the infrastructure manager’s network.

For impacted ERTMS trackside subsystems, Infrastructure Managers shall implement the relevant trackside error corrections enabling a TSI compliant CCS on-board (including on-board error correction implementation) to provide a normal service, in accordance with Appendix B (Table B2) of this CCS TSI.

This Infrastructure Manager shall update -if applicable- the existing ETCS and radio system compatibility checks type (ESC/RSC) (i.e. this shall not lead to the creation of a new ESC/RSC type).

In case of a new or upgraded trackside implementation, the Infrastructure Manager shall make best efforts to publish the applicable error corrections in advance of the placing into service of the new or upgraded trackside implementation such that the on-board systems can be duly updated in accordance with Appendix B (Table B1.1) of this CCS TSI.

7.2.10.3.2.   Railway Undertakings responsibilities

The Railway Undertakings shall compare the error corrections registered in RINF for the area of use of the vehicle with the information previously provided as described in point 7.2.10.1 to identify the necessary error corrections to be implemented in the vehicles.

For impacted ERTMS on-board subsystems, Railway Undertakings with support of the on-board manufacturers shall implement the necessary error corrections in the CCS on-board subsystems in accordance with appendix B (Table B1.1) of this CCS TSI.

7.6.   Train detection systems specific implementation rules

In the context of this TSI, train detection system means the equipment installed trackside, which detects the presence or absence of vehicles either on an entire line of route or on a local section of it.

Trackside systems (e.g. interlocking or level crossing control systems) which use information from detection equipment are not considered parts of the train detection system.

This TSI specifies the requirements for the interface with rolling stock only to the extent necessary to ensure compatibility between TSI-compliant rolling stock and the Control-command and Signalling Trackside.

Implementing a train detection system that is compliant with the requirements of this TSI can be done independently of the installation of ETCS or GSM-R.

The requirements of this TSI relating to train detection systems shall be respected when:

  • (1) upgrading the train detection system;
  • (2) renewing the train detection system, provided that respecting the requirements of this TSI does not imply unwanted modifications or upgrades of other trackside or on-board systems;
  • (3) renewing the train detection system, where this is required by the upgrade or renewal of trackside systems that use information from the train detection system;
  • (4) removing Class B train protection systems where the train detection and train protection systems are integrated.

In the migration phase care shall be taken to ensure that installing a TSI-compliant train detection system has a minimal negative impact on the existing non-TSI-compliant rolling stock.

7.7.   Specific cases

7.7.1.   Introduction

The following special provisions are permitted in the specific cases below.

The configurable options shall be as follows: — Display the speed dial in both km/h and mph in the figure below, as indicated as an example for the 180km/h configuration: — Image omitted; see official source — Display the speed dial in km/h only. | T | This augments but does not replace the other TSI requirements for management of the driver interface, so that all new equipment shall remain also fully compatible with the interoperability requirements. A transition to the pure km/h speed dial shall thus become possible and is envisaged as soon as the Irish network is fully fitted with ETCS, or all lineside speed restriction signs can be changed to km/h (i.e. all existing trains present a km/h speedometer). |

Specifications

When a document listed in Table A 2 incorporates, by copying or by reference to, a clearly identified point of another document, this point, and only this, shall be considered as part of the document listed in Table A 2.

For the purposes of this TSI, when a document listed in Table A 2 makes a ‘mandatory’ or ‘normative’ reference to a document not listed in Table A 2, the referenced document shall always be understood as an acceptable means of compliance with basic parameters (that can be used for certification of Interoperability Constituents and Subsystems and not requiring future revisions of the TSI) and not as a mandatory specification.

Note: specifications indicated as ‘Reserved’ in Table A 2 are also listed as open points in Appendix F when there is a need for notification of national rules to close the corresponding open points. Reserved documents not listed as open points are intended as improvements to the system.
