This European Standard specifies:
-
the functional requirements for a Call For Aid and Communication device;
-
the dynamic analysis of the Call For Aid system.
The Call For Aid function on existing vehicles may require modification to work in conjunction with vehicles that comply with this European Standard.
The Call For Aid function is separate from the Passenger Alarm System (PAS), which is provided to deal with emergency situations. The PAS is described in EN 16334 .
The communication device is different from the PAS, but it can share some parts of the PAS to achieve its functionalities.
The PAS is regarded as a safety relevant system whereas the CFA and communication device are non-safety relevant aids to passengers.
