Note: Where ATO GoA1/2 functionality is implemented over Class B trackside, the ATO on-board implementation is based on contractual agreements between the IM and RUs and as such there are no mandatory ATO GoA1/2 implementation requirements until ATO trackside and Class B trackside lines are migrated to a fully compliant ETCS including ATO trackside specifications in Appendix A of this TSI.

GSM-R and/or FRMCS shall be implemented according to the implementation requirements listed in point 7.3.2.

During the Change Control Management (CCM) process of the ERTMS specifications and before the entry into force of the next legal release of this TSI, errors are classified as preventing normal service or as not preventing normal service.
For the errors preventing normal service, on-board manufacturers, operators, e.g. providing input on the occurrence of the error during normal service, and infrastructure managers with the necessary input from the trackside manufacturers shall describe their products and system implementations with respect to the situation identified by answering to the ERA questionnaires (which include the resolutions of the errors and the mitigation measures).
The answers on these ERA questionnaires shall be provided within 3 months after publication of the questionnaires, in particular the Infrastructure Manager shall evaluate within the ERA questionnaire if: (1) the impact of the error is acceptable, as regards safety and network operation; (2) the impact of the error is acceptable for interoperability, this either means that: (a) the non-implementation of the trackside error correction would allow any ERTMS vehicle complying with the latest TSI release to provide normal service in the network; or (b) the non-implementation of the on-board error correction would allow that ERTMS vehicle to provide normal service in the TSI compliant network.
The Agency shall publish the results of the ERA questionnaires in a transparent manner.

After the publication of the error corrections in a legal release, manufacturers shall update their Interoperability Constituents accordingly and are responsible for maintaining the Interoperability Constituents as requested in point 4.2.20.1 (including maintaining the associated EC Certificates) and according to the transition requirements in Appendix B (Table B3).
These updated Interoperability Constituents (including the associated EC Certificates) shall be made available for integration in the concerned subsystems according to Appendix B (Table B3).
Note: For Interoperability constituents for which the information previously provided as described in point 7.2.10.1 indicates that there is no impact regarding safety, operation and interoperability, an update is not required.
