# Shunting (SH)

SH.1The purpose of the Shunting mode is to enable Shunting movements under the driver’s responsibility.
This mode can be selected by the driver (see section SH.MAN Manual entry into SH (MAN)) or ordered by the trackside (see section SH.AUT Automatic entry into SH (AUT)).

## SH.MANManual entry into SH (MAN)

Figure SH.MAN.SEL-[B3M1.L23.S].F1: Shunting button on Main window (soft key technology)

SH.MAN.SEL.1The Shunting button is enabled only when:

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

SH.MAN.SEL-[L01].1In ETCS levels 0 and 1 the SH mode is always accepted.

SH.MAN.SEL-[L23].1In ETCS levels 2 and 3, after selecting the Shunting button, mode transition will be only performed after receiving an authorisation from the trackside.

The Hour Glass symbol (ST05) is displayed until the SH mode is authorised or rejected by trackside.

ST05: Hour glass

SH.MAN.SEL-[LN].1In level NTC, if there is not an ongoing national trip procedure, the SH mode is accepted.

Otherwise, if there is an ongoing national trip procedure the Trip symbol (MO04) and the message “SH refused” are displayed (see section TR - Trip / Post Trip (TR)).

MO04: Trip

SH.MAN.SEL-[L23.N].1If the message “SH refused” or “SH request failed” is displayed, the driver shall inform the signaller about the situation. The driver and signaller shall apply non-harmonised rules.

## SH.AUTAutomatic entry into SH (AUT)

SH.AUT.1This procedure allows the automatic entry of a train into a Shunting area.

### SH.AUT.APPApproaching an SH area (APP)

SH.AUT.APP.1When the train is approaching to an SH area, the Acknowledgement for Shunting mode symbol (MO02) is displayed. The driver shall acknowledge the SH mode as indicated in the following section SH.AUT.ACK Acknowledge of SH mode (ACK).

MO02: Acknowledgement for Shunting mode

If the SH mode is requested for the current location, the transition to SH mode is performed immediately and the Shunting symbol (MO01) is displayed.

If the SH mode is requested for a further location, the beginning of the SH area is supervised as an EOA with no release speed until the driver acknowledges the request for Shunting mode.

### SH.AUT.ACKAcknowledge of SH mode (ACK)

SH.AUT.ACK-[L123.N].1When the Acknowledgement for Shunting mode symbol (MO02) is displayed, the driver shall:

1. Ensure the correct information concerning the movement to perform is available.
2. Then acknowledge the transition to SH mode.

SH.AUT.ACK-[L0N1.T].1To acknowledge the SH mode, the driver shall press the button as indicated in Figure SH.AUT.ACK-[L0N1.T].F1.

Figure SH.AUT.ACK-[L0N1.T].F1: Acknowledgement for Shunting mode button (touch screen technology)

SH.AUT.ACK-[L23.T].1To acknowledge the SH mode, the driver shall press the button as indicated in Figure SH.AUT.ACK-[L23.T].F1.

Figure SH.AUT.ACK-[L23.T].F1: Acknowledgement for Shunting mode button (touch screen technology)

SH.AUT.ACK-[L0N1.S].1 To acknowledge the SH mode, the driver shall press the button with a flashing frame associated to the MO02 symbol as indicated in Figure SH.AUT.ACK-[L0N1.S].F1.

Figure SH.AUT.ACK-[L23.S].F1: Acknowledgement for Shunting mode button (soft key technology)

SH.AUT.ACK.1When the driver acknowledges the transition to SH mode or the train reaches the beginning of the Shunting area, the mode changes to SH.

SH.AUT.ACK.2Once inside the Shunting area, if the driver has not acknowledged the transition to SH mode within 5 seconds after the change to SH mode, the service brake command is triggered.

The brake command is released as soon as the driver acknowledges the change to SH mode, unless the command was triggered for other reasons.

## SH.OPNOpen a desk in SH (OPN)

SH.OPN.1When a driver opens a desk, the driver shall verify the active mode that could be SH mode (see section SH.RUN Running in SH (RUN)) or SB mode (see section SB - Stand By (SB)).

To maintain Shunting mode when the Shunting procedure requires using two cabs see the following section SH.PS Maintain SH when changing the cab (PS).

## SH.PSMaintain SH when changing the cab (PS)

SH.PS-[L123].1When the Shunting procedure requires the use of different cabs the driver is allowed to select Maintain Shunting before closing the driving desk.

SH.PS-[L0N1.T].1To select Maintain Shunting, the driver shall access the Main window by pressing the button on the Default window as indicated in Figure MAIN-[L0N1.T].F1.

SH.PS.1The Maintain Shunting button is enabled only when:

1. The Mode is SH AND,
2. The Passive Shunting input signal is received from the train interface.

SH.PS.2After selecting the Maintain Shunting button, when the driver closes the desk (see section OFF.CLS Close the desk (CLS)), the ETCS on-board enters PS mode. The notion of responsibility of the driver is not relevant for the PS mode.

## SH.RUNRunning in SH (RUN)

SH.RUN-[L123.N].1When Shunting mode is active, the Shunting symbol (MO01) is displayed:

MO01: Shunting

The Shunting mode speed limit determined by a National Value shall not be exceeded.

The driver is responsible for:

1. Remaining inside the Shunting area.
2. Train movements and Shunting operations.

SH.RUN-[L123.N].2While the Shunting symbol (MO01) is displayed, the driver shall apply the non-harmonised rules.

SH.RUN-[L0N.N].1Network specific clauses to indicate how operate in SH mode in level 0 and NTC.

SH.RUN-[L0N1.T].1The Shunting mode speed limit is not shown by default on the DMI. However, the driver can toggle on and off the Shunting mode speed limit display by touching the area indicated in Figure SH.RUN-[L0N1.T].F1.

Figure SH.RUN-[L23.S].F1: Toggling on and off button (soft key technology)

SH.RUN-[L123.N].3To protect and restart Shunting movements in case of emergency situations, the driver shall apply non-harmonised rules.

SH.RUN-[L123.N].4When a Shunting movement needs to pass a defined border of a Shunting area, the driver shall apply the non-harmonised rules.

SH.RUN-[L123.N].5When a Shunting movement is tripped by passing a defined border of a Shunting area, the driver shall apply the non-harmonised rules.

SH.RUN.1If a Trip condition is received from trackside while running in Shunting mode, a transition to Trip mode is performed (see section TR - Trip / Post Trip (TR)).

After a trip has occurred, the driver shall continue running in the same direction only if the driver has received permission by operational instruction from the signaller.

## SH.EXTExit form SH (EXT)

SH.EXT-[L123].1When all Shunting movements to be performed in SH mode are finished the driver shall:

1. Exit Shunting mode manually.
2. Ensure that no traction unit remains in the Maintain Shunting status.

SH.EXT-[L0N1.T].1To exit Shunting mode manually, the driver shall access the Main window by pressing the button on the Default window as indicated in Figure MAIN-[L0N1.T].F1.

SH.EXT.2The Exit Shunting button is only enabled when:

1. The Mode is SH, AND
2. The train is at standstill.

When the driver selects Exit Shunting, the transition to SB is triggered (see section SB - Stand By (SB)).

SH.EXT.3Additionally to the transition mentioned previously (i.e. SH → SB, when the driver selects Exit Shunting), the following mode transitions can be triggered from SH mode:

1. NP mode. Transition triggered when the ETCS on-board is powered off as indicated in section OFF.PWR Power off the ETCS on-board (PWR)).
2. SB mode. Transition triggered when the driver has not selected Maintain Shunting and the desk is closed as indicated in section OFF.CLS Close the desk (CLS).
3. PS mode. Transition triggered when the driver has selected Maintain Shunting as indicated in section SH.PS Maintain SH when changing the cab (PS) and the desk is closed as indicated in section OFF.CLS Close the desk (CLS).
4. NL mode. Transition manually initiated by the Driver (see section NL - Non-Leading (NL)).
5. TR mode. Automatic transition triggered when a trip condition is received from the trackside, see section TR - Trip / Post Trip (TR)).
6. SF mode. Automatic transition triggered in case of a fault, see section SF - System Failure (SF)).
7. IS mode. Transition triggered when the driver isolates the ETCS on-board equipment, see section IS.ENT Entering Isolation mode (ENT)).
