  "text": "TYPE APPROVAL LIST OF MINIMUM REQUIRED TESTS\n1.\nINTRODUCTION\n1.1.\nType approval\nThe EC type approval for a recording equipment (or component) or a tachograph card is based on:\na security certification , based on Common Criteria specifications, against a security target fully compliant with Appendix 10 to this Annex,\na functional certification performed by a Member State authority certifying that the item tested fulfils the requirements of this Annex in terms of functions performed, measurement accuracy and environmental characteristics,\nan interoperability certification performed by the competent body certifying that the recording equipment (or tachograph card) is fully interoperable with the necessary tachograph card (or recording equipment) models (see Chapter 8 of this Annex).\nThis Appendix specifies which tests, as a minimum, must be performed by a Member State authority during the functional tests, and which tests, as a minimum, must be performed by the competent body during the interoperability tests. Procedures to follow to carry out the tests or the type of tests are not specified further.\nThe security certification aspects are not covered by this Appendix. If some tests requested for type approval are performed during the security evaluation and certification process, then these tests do not need to be performed again. In this case, only the results of these security tests may be inspected. For information, the requirements expected to be tested (or closely related to tests expected to be performed) during the security certification, are marked with a ‘*’ in this Appendix.\nThe numbered requirements refer to the Annex corpus, while the other requirements refer to the other appendixes (e.g. PIC_001 refers to requirement PIC_001 of Appendix 3 Pictograms).\nThis Appendix considers separately the type approval of the motion sensor, of the vehicle unit, and of the external GNSS facility as components of the recording equipment. Each component will get its own type approval certificate in which the other compatible components will be indicated. The functional test of the motion sensor (or external GNSS facility) is done together with the vehicle unit and vice versa.\nInteroperability between every model of motion sensor (resp. external GNSS facility) and every model of vehicle unit is not required. In that case the type approval for a motion sensor (resp. external GNSS facility) can be granted only in combination with the type approval of the relevant vehicle unit and vice versa.\n1.2.\nReferences\nThe following references are used in this Appendix:\nIEC 60068-2-1:Environmental testing — Part 2-1: Tests — Test A: Cold\nIEC 60068-2-2:Basic environmental testing procedures; part 2: tests; tests B: dry heat (sinusoidal).\nIEC 60068-2-6:Environmental testing — Part 2: Tests — Test Fc: Vibration\nIEC 60068-2-14:Environmental testing; Part 2-14: Tests; Test N: Change of temperature\nIEC 60068-2-27:Environmental testing.
