GSM-R user procedures (cab radio Version 2)
9.8.2.6 Option 6- PA Tests
The PA speech test allows you to test the train’s PA system. Two sub menu options are
available:
a) PA Tone Test
This test sets up a repeating tone to allow all PA speakers in the train to be tested by
walking through the train without the need for a second person. This test is used by
maintenance personnel.
b) PA Speech Test
This test allows speech to test the PA as follows:
Connected to PA
Check PA Speech
Once you are satisfied that the PA test has been successful, you can stop the test by
pressing .
If a PA system is not attached to the cab radio, for example, on trains not used in
Driver Only (DO) passenger service, you will hear a tone and see an error message
(No PA attached) displayed.
9.8.2.7 Option 7 Version Information
Used by maintainers. Provides a sub menu offering options to display various version
information about the radio.
9.8.2.8 Option 8 Fault Log
Used by maintainers. Displays a list of the last 50 fault events.
9.8.2.9 Background testing
As well as the tests above and the automatic self-test during radio power up, the cab radio
often checks itself. It will report any failures immediately on the active display.
Radio failure 01
Radio failure
After selecting “PA Speech Test” in the sub menu,
you can now speak into the handset microphone
and should be heard clearly over the train’s PA
system. You will need a second person to walk
through the train to see that the system is working
correctly.
If a fault relates to a service affecting failure (see
section 9.2.2) the display will show a ‘failure’
message, accompanied by a fault code.
