Representative Configuration means a configuration on the basis of which test results can be achieved, which are valid for various configurations of the same certified Interoperability Constituent or of a certified on-board subsystem.
These results shall also be equivalent for various configurations of a certified RMR trackside subsystem.
For RSC checks at Interoperability Constituent level the following is to be observed: (1) The RSC Interoperability Constituent Statement records the RSC results of the Interoperability Constituent (e.g. Cab Radio or EDOR) to the RSC Type(s) that is valid regardless of the specific configuration of the Interoperability Constituents.
This document shall be produced by the supplier.
The template provided in Appendix C.4 or C.6 shall be used.
(2) The RSC Interoperability Constituent Statement shall include the summary of the findings and conditions of RSC Check Report(s) on the results of the RSC checks passed (defined in one or more RSC Type), which are valid independently from the specific configuration parameters of the on-board Interoperability Constituent and can therefore be used in every applicable on-board CCS subsystem level.
(3) The RSC Interoperability Constituent Statement shall include the list of RSC checks performed for the RSC Type(s).
(4) The RSC Interoperability Constituent Statement shall include the reference to the NoBo assessment Report according to 6.2.4.3 (ETCS and radio system compatibility checks for Interoperability Constituent).
The RSC of the specific on-board CCS subsystem with respect to one or more RSC Type(s) is laid down in the RSC Statement.
The template provided in Appendix C.3 or C.5 shall be used.
At subsystem level, the RSC Statement shall also include the summary of the Check Report and shall demonstrate the fulfilment of the required RSC checks (for each RSC Type included in the Statement) published in the Agency ESC/RSC technical document in addition to already provided RSC interoperability constituent statements.
The RSC Statement shall also include the full list of RSC Interoperability Constituent statements taken into account in the assessment (if any), the conditions (if any) with respect to the different RSC Types and the NoBo Assessment Report according to 6.3.3.1 (ETCS and radio system compatibility checks).

The Infrastructure Manager is responsible for defining the RSC type(s).
All sections of the Union network which require the same set of checks for the demonstration of RSC shall have the same RSC type.
The list of RSC Types is published and maintained by the European Union Agency for Railways in the technical document ‘ESC/RSC technical document, TD/011REC1028’.
See Appendix A, Table A 1, 4.2.17 a.
The Agency shall assess the checks unless they have been assessed by a NoBo as required in Table 6.3 row 10.
The assessment by the Agency shall be done within 2 months of receipt thereof, unless a longer period is agreed between the Agency and the Infrastructure Manager but not exceeding 4 months in total.
The technical document will be updated within 10 working days after positive assessment.
The RSC Types shall only be used when published with status ‘Valid’ in the Agency Technical document referred above.
Infrastructure Managers, with the support of the RMR suppliers for their network, shall submit to the Agency the definition of the necessary checks for each RSC type on their network.
The minimum information that shall be included: (1) Definition of each check to be performed (2) Criteria to pass each check (3) If a check is only required for trains equipped with a specific RMR GSM-R/FRMCS baseline and a given TSI release.
(4) If checks are to be performed in laboratories or on the track.
In case of track, it shall be indicated if a specific location is required.
