Unit of Competency TLIC0006 - Set up rail traffic for autonomous operation
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to set up autonomous systems for rail traffic operation.It includes identifying rail traffic for autonomous operation, setting up rail traffic for autonomous mission, and monitoring and reporting autonomous rail traffic operations.This unit defines rail traffic as a train.People achieving competence in this unit will need to fulfil the applicable state/territory legislated rail safety requirements and to comply with relevant codes of practice and/or guidelines.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Assessors must hold credentials specified within the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence and all regulatory requirements included within the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must occur in rail workplace operational situations where it is appropriate to do so; where this is not appropriate, assessment must occur in simulated workplace operational situations that replicate rail workplace conditions.

Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.

Resources for assessment must include:

a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or simulations

relevant and appropriate materials, tools, autonomous equipment and personal protective equipment (PPE) currently used in industry

applicable documentation, including legislation, regulations, codes of practice, workplace procedures and operation manuals.

  • Rail traffic location is determined
       
Element: Hazards are identified, risks assessed and control measures implemented
       
Element: Rail traffic is accessed in accordance with workplace procedures
       
Element: Rail traffic location is verified
       
Element: Set up rail traffic for autonomous mission
  • Functions of equipment, component parts and accessories are identified
       
Element: Applications of autonomous activities of different infotechnology equipment and systems are interpreted
       
Element: Equipment is set up for autonomous operation in accordance with workplace procedures and manufacturer specifications
       
Element: Routine faults in operating systems, software applications and operator errors are identified and rectified in accordance with workplace procedures
       
Element: Autonomous systems are identified as working and active on the rail traffic
       
Element: Situational awareness is applied through effective visual scans, use of communication systems, use of rail traffic information and use of systems of safe working in accordance with workplace procedures
       
Element: Safety critical communication is undertaken with network control officer or relevant person to validate data
       
Element: Autonomous train operational capabilities are monitored and continually evaluated, including visual indicators that rail traffic is now autonomous
       
Element: Rail traffic is set to autonomous operations and driving cab is locked and secured for operation
       
Element: Monitor and report autonomous traffic operations
  • Rail traffic readiness for mission is communicated in accordance with workplace protocols whilst standing in a safe place
       
Element: Lights and sound devices are confirmed active on the rail traffic as it departs
       
Element: Communication is maintained with relevant personnel and clarification is sought about anything that is not clear in relation to processes and procedures
       
Element: Autonomous rail traffic is visually inspected on departure in accordance with workplace procedures
       
Element: Records are updated in accordance with workplace procedures
       


Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria on at least one occasion and include:

accessing the human machine interface onboard and enter the correct train data

accessing the rail traffic safely

acknowledging the communications within the rail traffic, including confirming screen is active and that all systems on the train have received the correct data and are ready for autonomous operation

communicating the rail traffic is ready for departure or operations

confirming departure and lights and sound devices are active on the rail traffic as it departs

confirming visual indicators that rail traffic is now autonomous

engaging in safety critical communication to validate data

identifying the autonomous systems are working and active on the rail traffic

leaving and locking the rail traffic

moving to a safe place

setting final rail traffic switches to autonomous operations

setting the rail traffic to autonomous.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and include knowledge of:

emergency response procedures

isolation systems

operational requirement of autonomous rail traffic, including rail traffic mission and journey

relevant autonomous rail traffic workplace procedures and manufacturer specifications

relevant network safety management system

relevant work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) procedures and regulations

typical minor repair problems that can occur, and appropriate remedial action that should be taken

workplace documentation and record requirements.

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Range is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
