The document clarifies two interpretation points regarding UN R156-01. First, software updates to registered vehicles require that an RXSWIN be assigned to every Regulation No. X type approval assessed during the update process, unless the manufacturer does not plan software updates for that particular system Regulation. Second, regarding para. 7.2.1.2.2., it is proposed to delete the requirement that software version changes be declared each time they are updated, since software versions are declared for each regulation subject to software updates following amendments to RE.3 Annex 7.
Regulation Software Identification Number: A dedicated identifier, defined by the vehicle manufacturer, that represents the type-approval-relevant software of the electronic control system(s) contributing to the characteristics covered by a specific UN Regulation (where “X” stands for the regulation number — e.g. RX79SWIN for UN Regulation No. 79 on steering equipment).
