This Technical Specification describes from an ergonomic point of view how ERTMS information shall be arranged and displayed. This Technical Specification describes more ergonomic details than currently provided by the ERTMS/ETCS/GSM R specifications. This Technical Specification defines the ergonomics for the Driver-Machine Interface (DMI) for the ERTMS/ETCS Train Control System, and for the integrated ERTMS/GSM R Train Control and Train Radio Systems, and for the stand alone ERTMS/GSM R Train Radio Systems and for other technical systems currently provided on the engines. The ergonomics covers the: - general arrangements (dialogue structure, sequences, layout philosophy, colour philosophy); - symbols; - audible information; - data entry arrangements. The aims of the ERTMS/ETCS/GSM R Train Control and Train Radio Systems are standardised systems facilitating interoperable movement of trains and permitting economies of scale in procurement and operations. The objective of this Technical Specification is to define the minimum requirements on the DMI that are necessary to enable these objectives to be achieved. Hence the Technical Specification is limited to ergonomic considerations and does not define the technology to be used for the implementation. The reasons for defining the ergonomics of the DMI are as follows: - achieving harmonised and coherent presentation for ERTMS/ETCS and STM information. Given the large number of STM’s requiring the use the ERTMS/ETCS DMI, only a harmonised approach is feasible. - defining Driver-Machine Interface ergonomics that is compatible with agreed interoperable ERTMS specifications. - to reduce the risk of incorrect operation by a driver working with different trains fitted with ERTMS/ETCS and ERTMS/GSM R. - facilitating train operation with a unified ergonomics, hence reducing the cost of driver training. This Technical Specification is applicable on all trains fitted with the ERTMS/ETCS and also for trains fitted with train radio (GSM R) DMI. The scope of this part of the Technical Specification (Part 5) is to define the symbols used with the ERTMS/ETCS and the ERTMS/GSM R DMI. The actual use of the symbols is depending on the availability of the function addressing the symbol.

1 Scope
This Technical Specification describes from an ergonomic point of view how ERTMS information shall
be arranged and displayed. This Technical Specification describes more ergonomic details than
currently provided by the ERTMS/ETCS/GSM-R specifications.
This Technical Specification defines the ergonomics for the Driver-Machine Interface (DMI) for the
ERTMS/ETCS Train Control System, and for the integrated ERTMS/GSM-R Train Control and Train
Radio Systems, and for the stand alone ERTMS/GSM-R Train Radio Systems and for other technical
systems currently provided on the engines.
The ergonomics covers the:
general arrangements (dialogue structure, sequences, layout philosophy, colour philosophy);
symbols;
audible information;
data entry arrangements.
The aims of the ERTMS/ETCS/GSM-R Train Control and Train Radio Systems are standardised
systems facilitating interoperable movement of trains and permitting economies of scale in
procurement and operations. The objective of this Technical Specification is to define the minimum
requirements on the DMI that are necessary to enable these objectives to be achieved. Hence the
Technical Specification is limited to ergonomic considerations and does not define the technology to
be used for the implementation.
The reasons for defining the ergonomics of the DMI are as follows:
achieving harmonised and coherent presentation for ERTMS/ETCS and STM information. Given
the large number of STM’s requiring the use the ERTMS/ETCS DMI, only a harmonised approach
is feasible.
defining Driver-Machine Interface ergonomics that is compatible with agreed interoperable
ERTMS specifications.
to reduce the risk of incorrect operation by a driver working with different trains fitted with
ERTMS/ETCS and ERTMS/GSM-R.
facilitating train operation with a unified ergonomics, hence reducing the cost of driver training.
This Technical Specification is applicable on all trains fitted with the ERTMS/ETCS and also for trains
fitted with train radio (GSM-R) DMI.
The scope of this part of the Technical Specification (Part 5) is to define the symbols used with the
ERTMS/ETCS and the ERTMS/GSM-R DMI. The actual use of the symbols is depending on the
availability of the function addressing the symbol.

3 Terms and definitions

4 Symbols and abbreviations
For the purposes of this document, the symbols and abbreviations given in CLC/TS 50459-1 apply.
5 Use of symbols
5.1 Principles
The principles underlying the design and use of the symbols presented in the following clauses are
described within CLC/TS 50459-1.
The appearance of the symbols in this Technical Specification is normative. However, this does not
imply that the symbol must be shown on the DMI if a function is considered to be optional. The explicit
meaning is, that if the function is available, it must be presented in the way described in this document.
If it is not needed, then the DMI does not show the information.
If a symbol is used, its form, shape, colour and size shall be as specified in this Technical
Specification (CLC/TS 50459-5). Other information in Tables 1 to 11 is for reference. See also
CLC/TS 50459-1 for further information.
The symbol area codes for the ERTMS/ETCS symbols refer to Part 2 of this Technical Specification;
for the ERTMS/GSM-R symbols to Part 3 of this Technical Specification.
5.2 ERTMS/ETCS symbols
NOTE The “Symbol Area” column in the descriptions below is included for clarity and ease of understanding.
For good visibility all symbols are presented with the recommended background colour ‘dark blue’. In
an application the symbols shall have transparent background.
In general, symbols for area D2/3/4 with the size 20 x 20 have their reference point at the bottom of
the symbol itself.
