# Commission Decision of 7 November 2006 concerning a technical specification for interoperability relating to the control-command and signalling subsystem of the trans-European high speed rail system and modifying Annex A to Decision 2006/679/EC concerning the technical specification for interoperability relating to the control-command and signalling subsystem of the trans-European conventional rail system (notified under document number C(2006) 5211) (Text with EEA relevance) (2006/860/EC), Division 6.1.2: Modules

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

For the assessment of interoperability constituents within the Control Command subsystem, the manufacturer, or his authorised representative established within the Community, may choose the modules according to tables 5.1A, 5.1B, 5.2A and 5.2B:
Either the type-examination procedure (Module B) for the design and development phase in combination with the production quality management system procedure (Module D) for the production phase, or
The type-examination procedure (Module B) for the design and development phase in combination with the product verification procedure (Module F), or
The full quality management system with design examination procedure (Module H2).
The description of the modules is in Annex E of this TSI.
The Module D (production quality management system) may only be chosen where the manufacturer operates a quality system for production, final product inspection and testing, approved and surveyed by a notified body.
The Module H2 (full quality management system with design examination) may only be chosen where the manufacturer operates a quality system for design, production, final product inspection and testing, approved and surveyed by a notified body.
The following additional clarifications apply to the use of some of the modules:
With reference to Chapter 4 of the ‘Module B’ (type examination) description in Annex E:
(a) Design review is requested;
(b) Review of manufacturing process is not requested if ‘Module B’ (type examination) is used together with ‘Module D’ (production quality management system);
(c) Review of manufacturing process is requested if ‘Module B’ (type examination) is used together with ‘Module F’ (product verification).
With reference to chapter 3 of the ‘Module F’ (product verification) description in Annex E, statistical verification is not allowed, i.e., all interoperability constituents shall be individually examined.
With reference to section 6.3 of the ‘Module H2’ (full quality management system with design examination), a type test is required.
Independently of the selected module, provisions of Annex A index 47, index A1, index A2 and index A3 shall be applied for the certification of Interoperability Constituents, for which requirements of the Basic Parameter safety (section 4.2.1 Control-Command safety characteristics relevant to interoperability) apply.
Independently of the selected module, it shall be checked that the indications of the supplier for the maintenance of the interoperability constituent are compliant with the requirements of section 4.5 (Maintenance rules) of this TSI.
If Module B (type examination) is used, this shall be made on the basis of the examination of the technical documentation (see section 3 and 4.1 of the description of Module B (type examination)).
If Module H2 (full quality management system with design examination) is used, the application for design examination shall include all elements supporting evidence that the requirements of section 4.5 (Maintenance rules) of this TSI are fulfilled.
