Short Range Devices (SRD) - Social Alarms Equipment operating in the frequency range 25 MHz to 1 000 MHz - Harmonised Standard covering the essential requirements of article 3.2 of the Directive 2014/53/EU

The present document specifies technical characteristics and methods of measurements for social alarm systems
operating on a range of frequencies that may be shared with other equipment types.
Social alarms are defined in Commission Decision 2013/752/EU [i.3] as:
"Social alarm devices" are radio communications systems that allow reliable communication for a person in distress in
a confined area to initiate a call for assistance. Typical uses of social alarm are to assist elderly or disabled people.

Naprave kratkega dosega (SRD) - Oprema za socialne alarme, ki deluje v frekvenčnem območju od 25 MHz do 1000 MHz - Harmonizirani standard, ki zajema bistvene zahteve člena 3.2 direktive 2014/53/EU

Ta dokument določa tehnične lastnosti in merilne metode za sisteme socialnih alarmov, ki delujejo prek različnih frekvenc, ki jih lahko souporablja oprema druge vrste.
Socialni alarmi so v sklepu Komisije 2013/752/EU [i.3] opredeljeni kot:
»Naprave za socialno alarmiranje« so zanesljivi radiokomunikacijski sistemi, ki osebi v stiski omogočajo, da v zaprtem prostoru sproži klic na pomoč. Socialni alarm se običajno uporablja za pomoč starejšim ali invalidnim osebam.

Foreword
This Harmonised European Standard (EN) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Electromagnetic
compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM).
The present document has been prepared under the Commission's standardisation request C(2015) 5376 final [i.10] to
provide one voluntary means of conforming to the essential requirements of Directive 2014/53/EU on the harmonisation
of the laws of the Member States relating to the making available on the market of radio equipment and repealing
Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2].
Once the present document is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive, compliance with
the normative clauses of the present document given in table A.1 confers, within the limits of the scope of the present
document, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding essential requirements of that Directive and associated
EFTA regulations.

Introduction
The present document is part of a set of standards developed by ETSI and is designed to fit in a modular structure to
cover all radio equipment within the scope of the Radio Equipment Directive (RED) [i.2].
It is recognized that the radio communications link alone does not determine the overall operation of a system, but that a
functioning radio communications link is an essential foundation upon which a system may be built.
The present document sets out various means and features by which the performa

Foreword
This Harmonised European Standard (EN) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Electromagnetic
compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM).
The present document has been prepared under the Commission's standardisation request C(2015) 5376 final [i.10] to
provide one voluntary means of conforming to the essential requirements of Directive 2014/53/EU on the harmonisation
of the laws of the Member States relating to the making available on the market of radio equipment and repealing
Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2].
Once the present document is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive, compliance with
the normative clauses of the present document given in table A.1 confers, within the limits of the scope of the present
document, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding essential requirements of that Directive and associated
EFTA regulations.

Modal verbs terminology
In the present document "shall", "shall not", "should", "should not", "may", "need not", "will", "will not", "can" and
"cannot" are to be interpreted as described in clause 3.2 of the ETSI Drafting Rules (Verbal forms for the expression of

Introduction
The present document is part of a set of standards developed by ETSI and is designed to fit in a modular structure to
cover all radio equipment within the scope of the Radio Equipment Directive (RED) [i.2].
It is recognized that the radio communications link alone does not determine the overall operation of a system, but that a
functioning radio communications link is an essential foundation upon which a system may be built.

Foreword
This draft Harmonised European Standard (EN) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Electromagnetic
compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM), and is now submitted for the combined Public Enquiry and Vote
phase of the ETSI standards EN Approval Procedure.
The present document has been prepared under the Commission's standardisation request C(2015) 5376 final [i.10] to
provide one voluntary means of conforming to the essential requirements of Directive 2014/53/EU on the harmonisation
of the laws of the Member States relating to the making available on the market of radio equipment and repealing
Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2].
Once the present document is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive, compliance with
the normative clauses of the present document given in table A.1 confers, within the limits of the scope of the present
document, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding essential requirements of that Directive and associated

Introduction
The present document is part of a set of standards developed by ETSI and is designed to fit in a modular structure to
cover all radio equipment within the scope of the Radio Equipment Directive (RED) [i.2].
It is recognized that the radio communications link alone does not determine the overall operation of a system, but that a
functioning radio communications link is an essential foundation upon which a system may be built.
