1. The train is at standstill AND
2. The Driver ID and ERTMS/ETCS level are valid AND
3. The mode is SB, FS, LS, SR, OS, UN, SN.

OTH.DAT.MAN-[V].1The number of modifiable elements of train data depend on the pre-configuration of the ETCS on-board equipment and the data received from external sources.

There are three types of train data entry configurations available to be used for the driver:

1. Fixed train data entry: the Train data window contains only one input field allowing the driver to enter a train type amongst a number of pre-configured ones. Each train type represents a combination of all train data. Once a train type is selected, the driver cannot change any value of a specific train data composing the selected train type.
2. Flexible train data entry: the Train data window(s) contain one or more input fields for the specific train data that the driver has to enter/modify.
3. Switchable train data entry: with this configuration, the driver can switch from a Fixed train data entry layout to a Flexible train data entry layout or vice versa.

## OTH.ORNChange of Train Orientation (ORN)

OTH.ORN.1The driver can control the train from the front cab with the direction controller in the forward position. However, to change the orientation of the train, the driver has to change the driving cab.

Different situations can occur under these circumstances.

OTH.ORN-[V].1The driver changes of cab but uses the same engine (a mission is ongoing).

In this situation the driver closes Desk A and leaves Cab A of the leading engine of the train, to go to Cab B and open Desk B of the same engine (both desks are connected to the same ERTMS/ETCS on-board system).

When the driver closes Desk A (see section OFF.CLS Close the desk (CLS)), the mode immediately changes to Stand-By, which is considered as an end of mission.

When the driver then opens Desk B, the SB symbol is displayed (see section SB - Stand By (SB)).

OTH.ORN-[V].2The driver changes cab and leaves one engine to go to another engine.

In this situation the train has two engines available (Engine A and Engine B). Engine A is the leading engine and Engine B is the slave engine. Each engine has its own ETCS on-board equipment.

1. Case A: Engine B is in SL mode.

   The driver closes Desk A of Engine A (see section OFF.CLS Close the desk (CLS)), any mission in progress is finished and the mode changes to Stand-By mode.

   The ETCS on-board equipment of Engine B switches to Stand-By mode.

   The driver leaves Engine A and enters Engine B. When the driver opens Desk B in Engine B a new mission is triggered (see section SB - Stand By (SB)).

2. Case B: Engine B is in NL mode.

   The driver selects Non-Leading on Desk A of Engine A (see section NL - Non-Leading (NL)), the ETCS on-board equipment changes to Non-Leading mode.

   Once the Non-Leading signal is not received, Engine B mode changes to Stand-By mode (see section SB - Stand By (SB)).

3. Case C: Engine B is in PS mode.

   The driver selects Maintain Shunting on Desk A of Engine A (see section SH.PS Maintain SH when changing the cab (PS)), the mode changes to Passive Shunting mode once the driver closes Desk A of Engine A.

   If the driver opens Desk B of Engine B, the ETCS on-board equipment switches Desk B to Shunting mode (see section SH - Shunting (SH)).

OTH.ORN-[V].3The driver changes cab but uses the same engine, while a Shunting movement is ongoing.

In this situation the driver closes Desk A and leaves Cab A. The driver then goes to Cab B and opens Desk B of this same engine while the ETCS on-board equipment is in Shunting mode.

Both Desk A and Desk B are connected to the same ETCS on-board system.

When the driver closes Desk A of Cab A, if the driver has previously selected the function Maintain Shunting (see section SH.PS Maintain SH when changing the cab (PS)), the mode immediately changes to Passive Shunting mode.

When the driver opens Desk B of Cab B, the ETCS on-board equipment switches back to Shunting mode (see section SH - Shunting (SH)).

## OTH.JOIJoining (JOI)

OTH.JOI.1When the Joining procedure happens:

1. The joining train (train performing the Joining operation) approaches the train to be joined. This can be performed in SR, OS or SH mode.
2. The electrical and mechanical links between the two trains are closed.

OTH.JOI-[V].1Train specific clauses indicating how to close the electrical and mechanical links.

OTH.JOI.2If a mission is still in progress after the joining procedure, the driver must modify the Train Data such that it fits with the new train composition (see section OTH.DAT.MAN Manual change of train data (MAN)).

OTH.JOI.3If a former leading ETCS on-board equipment is to become slave equipment in NL mode, the driver shall select NL mode (see section NL - Non-Leading (NL)).

OTH.JOI-[V].2Information that a Joining operation has been correctly completed is not provided for the ETCS equipment. Joining operation requires the fulfilment of operating rules ensuring that a Joining operation has been correctly completed (e.g. physical connection).

## OTH.SPLSplitting (SPL)

OTH.SPL.1When the Splitting procedure happens:

1. The electrical and mechanical links between the two trains are removed.
2. If Splitting procedure requires moving the two train parts apart from each other for a small distance, this can be done even in SB mode.

The Splitting procedure must be performed while the train is at standstill.

The Splitting procedure can only be performed if the two resulting trains both have, at least, one ETCS on-board equipment each.

OTH.SPL-[V].1Train specific clauses indicating how to remove the electrical and mechanical links between the two train.

OTH.SPL.2If the ETCS on-board equipment which was supervising the train before splitting has not performed an End of Mission for splitting. The driver must modify the Train Data such that it fits with the new train composition (see section OTH.DAT.MAN Manual change of train data (MAN)).

OTH.SPL.3The driver can then start a new mission, Shunting movements or not move the train depending on the case.

OTH.SPL-[V].2Information that a Splitting operation has been correctly completed is not provide for the ETCS on-board equipment. Splitting operation requires the fulfilment of operating rules ensuring that a Splitting operation has been correctly completed (e.g. physical disconnection).

In addition, when the brake is not applied due to an overspeed of the permitted speed, a text message is displayed indicating the reason that caused the brake command to be triggered. Depending on the reason for the activation of the brake command, the brake release occurs under some conditions or other.

1. When the emergency brake command is triggered due to a trip transition, a text message with the Trip condition is displayed (see section DEG.TR Transition to Trip mode (TR)). In this case, the emergency brake command is released at standstill and after the driver acknowledgment of the trip condition.
2. The “Balise read error” text message is displayed when the brake command is triggered due to linking error, balise group message inconsistency or RAMS related supervision error. In this case the brake command is released at standstill (see section DEG.BLS Managing a balise read error (BLS)).
3. The “Communication error” text message is displayed when the brake command is triggered due to supervision of the safe radio connection. In this case the brake command is released at standstill or when a new consistent message has been received from the RBC (see section DEG.RBC Managing absence of RBC information (RBC)).
4. The “Runaway movement” text message is displayed when the brake command is triggered due to the detection of a train movement exceeding the allowed roll away distance, the allowed reverse distance, the standstill supervision distance or distance allowed for moving backwards in Post Trip mode, or while the driver is modifying the Train data or is entering the SR speed/ distance limits. In this case, the brake command is released at standstill and after driver acknowledgement (see section OTH.BRK.UNI Reacting to unintentional movements (UNI)).
5. The “Train data changed” text message is displayed when the brake command is triggered due to change of Train Data while the train is running. In this case, the brake command is released at standstill and after driver acknowledgement (see section OTH.DAT.EXT Change of train data by ETCS external sources (EXT)).
6. The “RV distance exceeded” text message is displayed when the brake command is triggered due to an overpassed reversing distance related to a reversing area. In this case, the brake command shall be released if the reversing distance becomes extended so that the reversing distance is no longer overpassed, or at standstill after driver acknowledgement (see section RV.RUN Running in RV (RUN)).

When the brake command is triggered due to the driver not having acknowledged a text message, the brake command is released only after the driver acknowledges the text message (see section OTH.TXT Text message from trackside (TXT)).

OTH.BRK.2If the driver’s acknowledgement is not needed to release the brake, the driver is warned that the brake has been released with the Sinfo sound.

OTH.BRK.3Otherwise, when driver’s acknowledgement is necessary to release the brake command, the Sinfo sound is played to draw the driver’s attention to this acknowledgement.

OTH.BRK-[L0N1.T].1To acknowledge a brake intervention and to release the brake the driver shall press the button which has a flashing frame as indicated in Figure BRK-[L0N1.T].F1.

### OTH.BRK.UNIReacting to unintentional movements (UNI)

OTH.BRK.UNI-[L123.N].1If after being at a standstill, the train movement or Shunting movement has moved unintentionally and exceeded the allowed distance defined by a National Value, the ETCS on-board triggers the brake and the “Runaway movement” text message is displayed.

In this situation, the driver shall secure the train or Shunting movement according to non-harmonised rules and acknowledge the brake application.

## OTH.INTDriver confirmation of train integrity (INT)

OTH.INT.1The Train integrity information is given either by an external device or by the driver.

The driver confirmation of train integrity is only permitted when the train is at a standstill.

OTH.INT-[N].1Network specific clauses explaining the non-harmonised rules to confirm the Train integrity by the driver.

OTH.INT-[L0N1.T].1To confirm the Train integrity, the driver shall first get access to the Special window by pressing the button on the Default window of the DMI as indicated in Figure OTH.INT-[L0N1.T].F1.
