Division 5.2 GROUPING OF INTEROPERABILITY CONSTITUENTS
United Kingdom
The control-command interoperability constituents defined in Tables 5.1 and 5.2 may be combined to form a larger unit. The group is then defined by the functions of the integrated interoperability constituents and the remaining inter-faces on the outside of the group. The groups are defined in Tables 5.1 and 5.2. Each group has to be supported by European specifications. A group so formed is then to be considered as an interoperability constituent.
The declaration of conformity for an interoperability constituent requires that each of its interfaces referred to in Table 5 is supported by one or more European specifications. The specifications concerned will be referenced by Annex A. As long as a European specification is not available to support an interface given in Table 5, this interoperability constituent cannot be supported by a declaration of conformity. Therefore the interoperability constituent concerned shall be integrated into a group of interoperability constituents for which a declaration of conformity is then possible.
