Introduction
This document should be read in conjunction with ERA_ERTMS_015560, ETCS Driver Machine Interface,
and the EN 16186 series, Railway applications — Driver's cab.
CLC/TS 50459 series contains the ergonomic arrangements of information on the ERTMS/DMI Display
(CCD and TRD). Most items are illustrated with an example.
The reasons for defining the ergonomics of the DMI are as follows:
— achieving harmonized and coherent presentation for ERTMS/ETCS and NTC information;
— defining Driver-Machine Interface ergonomics that is compatible with agreed interoperable ERTMS
specifications;
— to reduce the risk of incorrect operation by a driver;
— facilitating train operation with a unified ergonomics, hence reducing the cost of driver training;
— better understanding of the tasks to be performed;
— increasing speed and accuracy of driver actions.
1 Scope
This Technical Specification describes from an ergonomic point of view how GSM-R information shall be
arranged and displayed. More specifically it covers information that is out of the scope of ERA document
ERA_ERTMS_015560. This Technical Specification describes more ergonomic details than currently
provided by the GSM-R specifications.
This Technical Specification defines the ergonomics for the Driver-Machine Interface (DMI) for the stand
alone ERTMS/GSM-R Voice Radio Systems.

4 General DMI-related principles
4.1 General ergonomic principles
The relevant requirements of the EN 16186 series shall be followed.
The GSM-R DMI shall follow the main ergonomic principles as described in CLC/TS 50459-1.
Any additional requirements that are specific to GSM-R are defined in this document.
4.2 Hardware
4.2.1 General
It should be possible to pickup and return the handset ‘blindly’ (from the driving position) and with one
hand. prEN 16186-2 shows the preferred location of the handset.
GSM-R shall automatically detect that the handset is off-hook.
As an alternative to a handset and loudspeaker, it should be possible for a radio to use a hands-free
microphone and loudspeaker. The hands-free microphone shall include a PTT function that is used when
the driver wants to speak during group calls. The PTT function may also be used during other calls.
4.2.2 Use of alternative layouts for the DMI
For existing systems or systems at an advanced stage of development alternative DMI layouts may be
used provided that they meet the functional requirements.
4.3 Areas on the DMI
GSM-R DMI’s shall have the following areas: input and monitoring. This is illustrated in Figure 1 — Areas
of the DMI Display along with their relative sizes (in cells). Refer to CLC/TS 50459-1:2015, 4.1.3 for a
fuller explanation of sizes and cells.

4.4 Colours
The display generally uses a dark background with lighter symbols. The figures and colours on them
within this document are for illustrative purposes only rather than presenting the precise colours.
The colours shall comply with those specified in prEN 16186-3 and CLC/TS 50459-1.
4.5 Information
As required by EIRENE the driver shall have the following information and functions independent of the
status of a call:
functional identity of connected party (for an outgoing call);
functional identity of calling party (for an incoming call);
the status of a call; this indication can use text or symbols or a combination of both;
see which (incoming) calls are waiting;
the ability to break into the voice call of other on-train users by picking up the handset (see NOTE 1);
the ability to terminate calls which he is entitled to terminate;
ability to end a call not by hanging up the handset, but by using a button;
radio network availability.
NOTE 1 Other on-train users can include, for example, a conductor using the intercom to connect via the cab radio to a
signaller, an external call routed via the cab radio to the public address, etc.
When a controller is handling a call other than the call of the driver, the driver should be informed about
that. The means of providing this is out-of-scope of this document.
The symbols shall be in accordance with the Table 3 — TRD Symbols below.
The symbolic indication of the status of a call is generally shown in A1. Some of the applicable symbols
given below may be replaced by symbols with a more specific meaning, for example a ‘primary controller’
symbol may replace the generic ‘connection established’ symbol.
The same symbol may be used both as a soft-key label and as a status indication, for example symbol
11.1. The background colour will differ (see prEN 16186-3 and 4.4) but the basic shape of the symbol is
the same.
NOTE 2 Status indications are not shown in fields C1 to C0.
NOTE 3 The numbering of the symbols is the same as in CLC/TS 50459-5:2005 where possible.
The symbols used are as follows:

4.6 Flashing
In general, the use of flashing is not recommended with GSM-R as it can cause an unnecessary
distraction to the driver.
4.7 Sounds
Sounds to be used are described in Clause 6. The reference to the sound numbers can also be found
there.
Any sound is related to one or more status symbol or command as described throughout this document.
4.8 Lists
A vertical scrollable list should be used to presenting the choices for the following GSM-R items:
• language selection;
• network selection;
• overview of recent incoming calls;
• predefined telephone numbers;
• selection of Group numbers;
• selection of Shunting Group numbers
A wrap-around principle is used such that pressing the ‘up’ key when at the top of the list results in the
bottom item of the list becoming highlighted. Similarly selecting the ‘down’ key when at the bottom results
in the top item being selected.
5 GSM-R functions shown on the DMI
5.1 Introduction
The following sub-clauses and figures illustrate the key functions of the proposed standalone GSM-R
Driver-Machine Interface.
NOTE The order of the subclauses has been chosen to match, as far as is practical, the order of screens
shown within UIC 612-04.
Within each subclause, the figure and text together explain how a function can be activated and how the
user should perform the navigation.
The examples below focus on soft key displays controlled via hard keys situated outside of the screen
(see Figure 1). A touch screen display, with buttons integrated into the screen, may be used to provide
the driver with the same interfaces. If a touch screen is used, buttons shall be placed only in the areas C,
F and S3.
Subclause 5.2 gives requirements of a more general nature. Starting with 5.3, a more detailed description
of functions and related requirements is given.
The descriptions below assume the use of a handset and loudspeaker. The mode of operation is
generally similar if a hands-free microphone is used in place of the handset.
5.2 General functions
5.2.1 Introduction
The wording on the screen shots generally aligns with UIC 612-04.
When the TRD is switched on, the GSM-R Cab Radio may be in one of two modes (Train Mode or
Shunting Mode) and, in each of these modes it may be in one of two states (Idle State when there is no
on-going call and Active State when there is an on-going call). The relation between these states and the
situation where the TRD is switched off is shown in Figure 2 — GSM-R Cab Radio Modes and States.
Figure 2 — GSM-R Cab Radio Modes and States
5.2.2 Switch DMI on/off
The on/off status of the display used by GSM-R shall be clearly indicated, e.g. by a blank screen which
indicates that is it switched off.
5.2.3 Basic screen – Train mode
There are no on-going actions from the GSM-R user, monitoring of incoming calls and alarms is possible.
Figure 3 — Basic Screen – Train Mode displays an example of no call activity for a cab radio which has a
registered train running number. This is the ‘Basic Screen’ shown by the display.

5.2.5 Menu structure
5.2.5.1 Menu structure – Idle state in train mode
Table 4 presents the menu structure and icons which are applicable when the radio is not involved in a
call.
Some features are only applicable when there is a call present. An example is the use of DTMF. Such
features are accessed via an in-call menu – see 5.12.
The following table describes the various steps within the menu structure that follows from the Basic
Screen – Train Mode. It is based on the menu structure in UIC 612-04 but has been modified where
necessary to provide EIRENE features that were not included in the UIC 612-04 structure.
