Railway applications - Call for aid and communication device - Requirements for heavy rail vehicles
This document covers heavy rail rolling stock.
This document does not cover urban rail rolling stock.
NOTE 1 EN 17355 covers communication device requirements for urban rail rolling stock.
This document specifies:
— the functional requirements for a call for aid system and communication device system;
— the dynamic analysis of the call for aid system.
NOTE 2 “Dynamic analysis” is understood here as a sequence of actions.
NOTE 3 In a formation of vehicles where one complies with this document with one that does not, it is possible that the call for aid system is not fully functional.
NOTE 4 The call for aid system function is separate from the Passenger Alarm System (PAS) function, which is provided to deal with emergency situations. The PAS is described in EN 16334-1:2014+A1:2022.
NOTE 5 The communication device system can be different from the PAS, but it can share some or all parts of the PAS to achieve its functionalities.
NOTE 6 The PAS is regarded as a safety relevant system whereas the CFA system and communication device system are non-safety relevant aids to passengers.
Bahnanwendungen - Hilferufvorrichtung und Kommunikationseinrichtung für Fahrgäste - Anforderungen für Vollbahnfahrzeuge
Dieses Dokument behandelt Vollbahn-Schienenfahrzeuge.
Dieses Dokument deckt keine Schienenfahrzeuge städtischer Schienenbahnen ab.
ANMERKUNG 1 EN 17355 deckt Anforderungen an Kommunikationseinrichtungen für Rollmaterial städtischer Schienenbahnen ab.
Dieses Dokument legt Folgendes fest:
- die funktionalen Anforderungen an eine Hilferufvorrichtung und an eine Kommunikationseinrichtung;
- die dynamische Analyse eines Hilferufsystems.
ANMERKUNG 2 In einem Verband von Fahrzeugen, in dem ein Fahrzeug diesem Dokument entspricht und ein anderes nicht, ist es möglich, dass das Hilferufsystem nicht voll funktionsfähig ist.
ANMERKUNG 3 Die Hilferuffunktion wird getrennt vom Fahrgastalarmsystem (PAS) betrachtet, welches für Notfälle konzipiert wurde. Das PAS ist in EN 16334-1 beschrieben.
ANMERKUNG 4 Die Kommunikationseinrichtung kann vom PAS getrennt sein, kann jedoch einige oder alle Bestandteile des PAS nutzen, um ihre Funktionalität zu erreichen.
ANMERKUNG 5 Das PAS wird als sicherheitsrelevantes System betrachtet, während es sich beim Hilferufsystem (CFA) und bei der Kommunikationseinrichtung um nicht sicherheitsrelevante Hilfsmittel für Fahrgäste handelt.

Le présent document couvre le matériel roulant ferroviaire lourd.
Le présent document ne couvre pas le matériel roulant ferroviaire urbain.
NOTE 1 L'EN 17355 couvre les exigences relatives aux dispositifs de communication pour le matériel roulant ferroviaire urbain.
Le présent document spécifie :
- les exigences fonctionnelles relatives à un dispositif d’appel à l’aide et à un dispositif de communication ;
- l'analyse dynamique du système d’appel à l’aide.
NOTE 2 Dans une formation de véhicules dont l'un est conforme au présent document et un autre non, il est possible que la fonction d'appel à l'aide ne soit pas pleinement opérationnelle.
NOTE 3 La fonction d’appel à l’aide est bien distincte du système d'alarme passager (PAS) qui est fourni pour gérer des situations d'urgence. Le PAS est décrit dans l'EN 16334-1.
NOTE 4 Le dispositif de communication peut être différent du PAS, mais il peut partager certaines ou toutes les parties du PAS pour réaliser ses fonctionnalités.
NOTE 5 Le PAS est considéré comme un système de sécurité alors que le CFA et le dispositif de communication sont des aides non-critiques pour les passagers.
