CCTV Closed Circuit Television (see 3.1) PAI Passenger Alarm Interface (see 3.3) PAD Passenger Alarm Device (see 3.4) PAS Passenger Alarm System (see Clause 6) TCMS Train Control and Monitoring System 5 System overview, architecture and interfaces An example of the system overview is described in Annex E. 6 Functional requirements 6.1 General The aim of the Passenger Alarm System is: a) to permit passengers in case of emergency situation to inform the driver; b) to permit the driver to keep the train moving or to stop the train at a safe location; c) to stop the train automatically: 1) at a platform, 2) if no acknowledgement by the driver. The mandatory functions that are set out in this clause are for normal mode operations. They are supplemented by additional optional functions which may be incorporated in the PAS. For degraded modes see Clause 8. 6.2 Advise the driver (and optionally on board staff members or control centre) of a potential danger 6.2.1 PAD shall be available for passengers and staff (see Clause 10 for PAD installation requirements). 6.2.2 The information that at least one PAD has been operated shall be transmitted to the driver. 6.2.3 An acoustic and flashing visual signal shall be given to the driver when a PAD has been operated. For the duration of signals and triggering conditions see Clause 7. Colour and frequency of visual and acoustic signals in the driver’s cab shall conform to the prEN 16186 series requirements. 6.2.4 In addition, if remote resetting of PADs is available, an acoustic signal shall be activated for each new activation of a PAD, in accordance with the safety requirements given in Clause 9. 6.2.5 The maximum permitted delay from any PAD operated and the acoustic and visual signal for the driver is 2 s. SIST EN 16334:2014



EN 16334:2014 (E) 8 6.2.6 When the driver has acknowledged, each acoustic signal shall be turned off within 1 s, and the visual signal should change from blinking to steady within 1 s. It is permitted to retain a flashing light as a reminder for the driver. A visual signal shall remain until all the PADs operated have been reset. 6.2.7 The system shall indicate to the driver if the PAS is not working properly or is working in limited mode (see Clause 8). 6.2.8 A PAS passenger area module shall not be automatically or remotely isolated. NOTE This is to ensure a member of the train staff or the driver carries out the isolation. Colour and frequency of visual and acoustic signals in the driver’s cab shall conform to the prEN 16186 series requirements. 6.2.9 Additional optional functions 6.2.9.1 There may be a reminder for the driver that a PAD has been operated by repeating the acoustic and flashing signals at intervals until all the PAD have been reset (cycling through 6.2.3 to 6.2.6). The time interval between reminders may be selected having taken into account the proposed train service. 6.2.9.2 The PAS can advise the on board staff by acoustic and/or visual signals that a PAD has been operated. The recommended maximum delay from any PAD operated and the acoustic and/or visual signal for on board staff is 2 s. 6.2.9.3 The PAS may indicate that a PAD has been operated on the outside of the train. EXAMPLE An external flashing light on the vehicle where the PAD has been operated. 6.2.9.4 For a vehicle with several compartments, PAS may give information to identify the activated PAD. EXAMPLE For a vehicle with compartments such as a sleeping car or restaurant car, or the train manager's office, a light outside each compartment could be used to identify the activated PAD. 6.2.9.5 If TCMS from each vehicle to the cab is available, PAS may give an output to identify where a PAD has been operated. EXAMPLE To show the location on a driver’s display in the cab or other areas for on board staff. 6.2.9.6 If train CCTV is available, PAS may inform the CCTV system on the location of the PAD that has been operated. 6.2.9.7 If remote resetting of PAD is available, an acoustic signal may be activated for each new activation of a PAD. 6.2.9.8 The acoustic signal can be turned off if the PAS alarm is supported by an emergency brake application by the driver. In this case, if the automatic brake controller is already in emergency brake position, the acoustic signal sounds for at least 5 s. 6.3 Advise the passenger 6.3.1 When a PAD is operated, the PAI shall give local feedback to the passenger within 1 s maximum. — The PAD shall be latched in the applied position and shall be visibly different to the un-operated normal status. — A flashing visual signal (red colour recommended) shall be activated on the PAI. SIST EN 16334:2014



EN 16334:2014 (E) 9 — An acoustic signal shall be activated. — If another PAD is operated before the driver’s acknowledgement the PAI response is the same. 6.3.2 The PAS shall give feedback of driver's acknowledgement by stopping the PAI acoustic signal and changing status of the previous feedback signal from flashing to steady. The PAI acoustic signal shall not interfere with the ability of the driver to communicate with the passenger. 6.3.3 After the driver’s acknowledgement, if another PAD is operated, the PAI flashing signal goes to steady. PAI acoustic signal is managed for a minimum duration of 3 s, unless communication with the driver is already implemented. 6.3.4 It is recommended that the PAI should indicate when audio communication with the driver is available: — by a steady green indication; — by a tone feedback signal. NOTE A possible tone can be two frequencies (1,5 kHz and 4 kHz), alternating at 8 Hz. The acoustic signal may be complemented by a broadcast announcement. EXAMPLE To advise the train crew. 6.4 Manage PAS communication 6.4.1 PAS shall provide an acoustic link to enable a conversation between the driver and the place where the PAD has been operated. That link shall be initiated and closed by the driver. 6.4.2 The acoustic link shall be available at all locations where a PAD has been operated, permitting the driver to talk to every location where a PAD has been operated (link 'one to many' for the driver). 6.4.3 The system shall enable the driver to manage (simultaneously or sequentially) communications from at least one location and up to a maximum of three locations. 6.4.4 A location shall not hear the communication generated by another location, except from the driver, as shown in Figure 1.

EN 16334:2014 (E) 10 6.5 Determine if the train is stopped at a platform or departing from a platform 6.5.1
A train is considered as stopped at a platform if a door 'release' command has been activated and the train is at standstill. A train at a platform where there has not been any door 'release' command is considered as outside a platform area. 6.5.2
PAS shall consider that the train is still at a platform when there has been a change of door status from 'released' to 'closed and locked' and the end of platform has not been passed by the last vehicle. 6.5.3 PAS should have input from an on-board platform detection system. 6.5.4 If the platform is not physically detected, the train shall be considered to have left the platform when either one of the two following requirements is fulfilled: — the distance covered is (100 ± 30) m; or — the train travels for a duration of (16 ± 2) s. 6.6 Recognize the action of the driver 6.6.1 The PAS shall recognize if the driver has acknowledged the information that a PAD has been operated. 6.6.2 The PAS shall recognize if the driver has initiated the override of PAS brake request. 6.6.3 The PAS shall recognize if the driver has initiated or closed a communication link with a location where a PAD has been operated. 6.7 Request brake action The activation of the PAD shall initiate the PAS to automatically request a brake application in the following situations: a) If the train is at a platform or is leaving a platform (as defined in 6.5), the PAS shall request an emergency brake or full service brake. b) If a train is outside the platform area described in 6.5, (10 ± 1) s after activation of the (first) passenger alarm, an automatic service brake application shall be requested by the PAS with at least 2/3 of the full service brake effort unless the passenger alarm is acknowledged by the driver within this time. It is permitted to request a full service or an emergency brake application. The PAS shall allow the driver to override at any time a PAS automatic brake request. In that case, the driver is permitted to acknowledge after the PAS has requested a brake application. This should cancel the brake request. If the PAS alarm is acknowledged by an emergency brake application by the driver, using the emergency brake position of the automatic brake controller, it is permitted that the PAS additionally requests an automatic brake application. c) If a train, with a PAD operated AND acknowledged by the driver, stops at a platform (6.5) when the doors are released, the PAS shall request an emergency brake application or a full service brake application. As an option the PAS can provide a reminder that the PAD is activated. d) As an option, for the trains running at high speed, activation of a PAD at a speed greater than a threshold speed of 200 km/h may initiate a controlled reduction in the speed, not less than 160 km/h After acknowledgement by the driver, the response of the PAS is the same as for lower speed. SIST EN 16334:2014



EN 16334:2014 (E) 11 6.8 PAS actions after PAD activation 6.8.1 If the train is at a platform (doors status 'released') AND a PAD is operated: a) the PAS requests a brake command (see 6.7); b) the PAS alerts the driver; c) if the driver acknowledges it, the audible alert is disabled (sound switched off), but the brake remains applied: no PAS brake override available to the driver until the doors status is 'closed' and 'locked'; d) the PAS will be reset after resetting of all PADs. NOTE For other processes see Annex A. 6.8.2 If the train leaves a platform area (doors status 'closed' and 'locked') AND a PAD is operated: a) the PAS requests a brake command (see 6.7); b) the PAS alerts the driver; c) if the driver acknowledges, before the train is at standstill, the audible alert is disabled (sound switched off), the brake remains applied: no PAS brake override available to the driver; d) if the driver acknowledges after standstill the following actions shall occur: 1) PAS visual alert remains on until PAD is reset, 2) PAS acoustic alert is turned off, 3) PAS brake request is overridden. 6.8.3 If the train is not at a platform: see Clause 7. 6.9 PAS power up in the active cab or train reconfiguration 6.9.1 The PAS shall check the status of the PAD on the train. If any PAD have been operated, the PAS shall react as set out in 6.2. 6.9.2 The minimum conditions to determine the availability of the PAS is integrity and continuity of PAS through the train. 6.10 Driver acknowledgement 6.10.1 PAS shall monitor an input to determine if the driver has acknowledged the alarm. 6.10.2 A dedicated interface shall be installed for the driver to acknowledge the alarm. It may be designed as a discrete acknowledgement button (see Figure E.1) or by using the position 'quick release' of the automatic brake controller. 6.10.3 The detection of the movement of the brake controller by the driver, either into full service brake or full release position can be used for acknowledgement. If the brake controller is already in full service, emergency brake or full release position, the dedicated interface should be used to make the acknowledgement. 6.10.4 A PAS acknowledgement shall permit the driver to override the PAS brake request, except at the platform as set out in 6.8.1 a) and when leaving a platform as set out in 6.8.2. SIST EN 16334:2014



EN 16334:2014 (E) 12 6.11 Overriding PAS brake request PAS shall not be capable of overriding any brake application initiated by any other system on the train. 6.12 Reset the PAS 6.12.1 The passenger alarm device shall only allow resetting by authorized staff. 6.12.2 The PAS is reset by the following actions. a) Local reset all PAD operated by special key. If a square key is used, see Annex D. The PAS shall be reset only when all PAD have been reset, as shown in Annex A. b) A centralized device may be installed to enable the driver to reset all PAD from the active cab (for example if audiocom or CCTV gives relevant information). If such a device is installed, the driver shall be informed about the locations of all the operated PAD. 7 Event sequence 7.1 The PAS should react as shown in Annex A. 7.2 The brake request management by the PAS should follow the diagram shown in Annex B. However, if at any time all operated PAD have been reset, the PAS shall go back to the initial state 'PAS active'. 8 Degraded modes 8.1 PAS degraded mode: isolated or not functioning 8.1.1 Units fitted with a driver's cab shall be fitted with a device which allows authorized staff to isolate the PAS functions in the cab. This mode is called the PAS degraded mode. 8.1.2 The PAD shall remain locally active in the passengers' area and capable of requesting a brake application. 8.1.3 The driver shall be advised that the PAS functions in the cab are isolated or not functioning (see 8.2). 8.1.4 In case of PAS degraded mode it shall be recognised that signalling of passenger alarm activation may not be available in the cab. In that case, no override of the PAS brake request shall be allowed. 8.2 Advising the driver The PAS shall advise the driver of an incorrect function at least in the following cases: — in case of malfunction of determining if the train is stopped at a platform or departing from a platform failure; — in case of malfunction of driver's acknowledgement; — continuous PAS brake request override; — inability to advise the driver of activated PAD. SIST EN 16334:2014



EN 16334:2014 (E) 13 9 Minimum safety requirements 9.1 The failure rate of the PAS to request the brake application shall be less than 10−6 failure/h. 9.2 The ability of the PAS to transmit the activation signal of a PAD to the driver shall be monitored by dedicated technical devices if the reliability of the system in conveying the activation signal is insufficient (more than 10−6 failure/h).
