4 System requirements
4.1 General
The manufacturer shall demonstrate that characteristics which claim to be pre-tested comply with the
requirements of this document.
During the Initial Type Testing sequence, if one test fails the manufacturer shall identify the cause of test
failure and the proposed modification to the test module after which the failure within the sequence shall be
retested.
The technical description, including drawings, shall be as specified in Annex A .
Static calculations shall include all fixings and attachments.
The conformity of VMS test module to the requirements of this standard and with the stated values (including
classes) shall be demonstrated by initial type testing.
NOTE 1 Factory production control by the manufacturer, including product assessment is covered by EN 12966-3.
For the purposes of testing, the VMS may be grouped into families, where it is considered that the selected
property/properties is/are common to all VMS within that family.
Initial type testing shall be performed to show conformity with this standard on first use of this document for
VMS being put onto the market and:
- at the beginning of the production of a new or modified VMS design, the raw material or supplier of the
components,
- at the beginning of a new or modified method of production.
In case of type testing on VMS for which initial type testing in accordance with this standard was already
performed, type testing may be reduced:
- if it has been established that the performance characteristics compared with the already tested VMS
have not been affected, or
- in accordance with the rules for grouping and/or direct or extended application of test results.
Where components are used whose characteristics have already been determined by the component
manufacturer on the basis of conformity with other tech
