Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2014048719A2] It is proposed to use an infill balise to make available a state of a route component (for example of a signal) which lies ahead in the direction of travel, wherein, depending on the state of the route component, the infill balise brings about a change of ETCS mode of the rail vehicle if the rail vehicle is in a manual travel mode or not in a monitored travel mode. The presented solution has the advantage that the infill balise can ensure safety even in a manual ETCS mode (for example a SR mode or an OS mode). The solution can preferably be used in conjunction with ETCS level 1 applications.
