Introduction
Roadworthiness testing is a part of a wider regime designed to ensure that road vehicles are kept
in a safe and environmentally acceptable condition during their use. This regime covers periodic
roadworthiness testing of vehicles and technical roadside inspections of vehicles used for commercial
road transport activities and provides a vehicle registration procedure allowing for the suspension of
a vehicle’s authorisation to be used in road traffic where the vehicle constitutes an immediate risk to
road safety. Periodic testing is the main tool to ensure roadworthiness. Technical roadside inspections
of commercial vehicles are merely complementary to periodic testing.
An ePTI system list, which is defined in ISO 20730-3, summarises ePTI-relevant systems and specifies
a defined name (system), a unique identifier (ePTI system identifier) and a description for each ePTI
system. All the definitions in this document refer to this ePTI system list.
The ISO 20730 series is based on the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) basic reference model
specified in ISO/IEC 7498-1 and ISO/IEC 10731, which structures communication systems into seven
layers. When mapped on this model, the application protocol and data link framework requirements
specified/referenced in the ISO 20730 series are structured according to Figure 1.
Figure 1 illustrates a standard-based documentation concept, which consists of the following main
clusters:
— vehicle diagnostic communication framework: covers all relevant basic vehicle diagnostic
communication specifications of OSI layers 7, 6 and 5;
— vehicle diagnostic communication use case framework: covers the master specification, which
specifies the use cases and requirements of the subject matter of OSI layer 7;
— presentation layer framework: covers all data relevant specifications of OSI layer 6;
— conformance test plan: covers the conformance test plan requirements of the use cases and
communication requirements of OSI layers 7, 6 and 5;
— lower OSI layer framework: covers all vehicle diagnostic protocol standards of OSI layers 4, 3, 2 and
1, which are relevant and referenced by the use case specific standard.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 20730-1:2021(E)
Road vehicles — Vehicle interface for electronic Periodic
Technical Inspection (ePTI) —
Part 1:
Application and communication requirements
1 Scope
This document is applicable to road vehicles, where the electronic vehicle interface is used to perform a
test method that is part of a periodic technical inspection (ePTI).
This document describes use cases and specifies technical requirements in order to support the ePTI-
relevant vehicle safety system(s) checks during the periodic technical inspection via the electronic
interface. This document references the ISO 14229 series, the unified diagnostic services implemented
on diagnostic communication over controller area network (DoCAN) and the Internet protocol (DoIP)
along with the required provision of data definitions.
The technical requirements of diagnostic services and data definitions of emissions-related systems are
specified in other International Standards, for example, ISO 15031 and ISO 27145. Other environmental
systems' ePTI use cases and technical requirements can be considered in the future.
This document defines:
— all requirements describing the vehicle-communication functionality via the diagnostic link
connector related to ePTI, for example:
1) discovery of the ePTI data link;
2) discovery of the ePTI-relevant systems;
3) query of ePTI-relevant systems’ information, including software identification, software
integrity, current and/or stored values;
4) query of ePTI-relevant systems’ error information;
5) activation of ePTI-relevant systems’ actuators or routines;
— the use cases about the individual vehicle communication functionality, for example, query
identification information, command functional test method.
This document does not directly specify any type of test method or pass/fail criteria of the ePTI-
relevant system during a PTI, but provides data, which may support PTI test methods.
The document specifies:
— terminology;
— communication establishment between the ePTI external test equipment and the vehicle's ePTI-
relevant systems;
— usage of a credentials-based authentication and authorisation mechanism between the ePTI
external test equipment and the vehicle;
— protection against tampering of the defined ePTI methods;
— definition of ePTI-relevant use cases:
— ePTI external test equipment discovers available data identifier as specified in ISO 20730-3;
— ePTI external test equipment queries the ePTI-relevant system’s information, including software
numbers, software integrity information, current and/or stored values, self-test completion
status, system status, and error information (e.g. DTC and/or DID information);
— ePTI external test equipment activates the ePTI-relevant system’s actuators or routines;
— definition of ePTI-relevant technical requirements;
— ePTI external test equipment minimum requirements.
This document excludes:
— process definitions for performing the PTI check;
— process and data definitions for off-board data provision;
— standardised data exchange formats;
— validation and verification of vehicle safety systems according to vehicle manufacturer specifications.

5.4 ePTI application example
Figure 2 shows an ePTI application example from ISO 20730-1. The three columns illustrate the
— PTI step,
— method, and
— information/data.
The step "Prepare" describes the process of providing off-board information necessary for performing
ePTI on a VIN-based access or other unequivocal identification method. Such information is required
to prepare the vehicle for PTI testing, for example, preconditions for ePTI self-tests, preconditions for
ePTI routines of activations, etc.
The step "Proceed" covers the standardised interface and the data definition for ePTI checks. Such
definitions are specified in this document or in the vehicle manufacturer-specific documentation
and are required to establish and perform communication between the external test equipment and
the vehicle, for example, communication requirements, authentication, standardised data, vehicle
manufacturer-specific data, etc.
The step "Compare" describes the process for providing the reference values for ePTI checks, which
requires data to perform a comparison between the read-out data from the vehicle and the reference
values provided by an external information source, for example, list of ePTI systems installed end of
line, software/variant references, thresholds, ePTI-relevant errors, etc.
The step "Decide" describes the method for deciding, whether to approve or reject the vehicle based on
the test, for example, pass/fail criteria, list of additional tests (manual/visual) to confirm the decision,
etc.
Key
1 information required to prepare the vehicle to the PTI
2 information required to establish and perform communication between the external test equipment and the
vehicle
3 standardised data required to collect and interpret ePTI information from the vehicle with the external test
equipment
4 vehicle manufacturer-specific data required to collect and interpret ePTI information from the vehicle with the
external test equipment
5 data required to perform a comparison between the read-out data from the vehicle and the reference values
provided by an external information source
6 data required for deciding, whether the vehicle fails
NOTE Information/data of Key 1, 5, and 6 are not within the scope of the ISO 20730 series.

6 ePTI inspection modules and use cases overview and principles
6.1 Basic principles
Basic principles have been established as a guideline to develop this document.
— BP1: ePTI use cases describe the interaction between the ePTI external test equipment with an ePTI
application and the vehicle's ePTI-relevant system(s) utilising the vehicle's communication interface
at the diagnostic link connector.
— BP2: ePTI use cases of the same subject are combined in one ePTI inspection module.
— BP3: ePTI use cases are described from an external test equipment and vehicle point of view.
— BP4: ePTI use cases are described independently of the vehicle system group, for example, safety
systems.
— BP5: All communication messages are compatible with the ISO 14229 series.
— BP6: All data definitions are compatible with the ISO 14229 series.
8 © ISO 2021 – All rights reserved

— BP7: Sensors, internal signals, current and stored values, input/output controls and routines, which
are available in the vehicle via the diagnostic communication interface as specified in this document
and are assigned to a standardised identifier (DID, RID) in ISO 20730-3, are mandatory for applicable
use cases and interface requirements as specified in this document unless otherwise noted.
— BP8: For DIDs, Routines and Input/Output controls as specified in ISO 20730-3, the defined format
shall not cause a change to the sensor(s)/actuator(s) range and resolution. The conversion is used
by the ePTI external test equipment to convert the data sent in the response message into a physical
value and is not a requirement on the actual sensor.
— BP9: Requirements inherit the classification of the corresponding use cases.
— BP10: A "REQ X.Y" requirement specifies a single requirement (not multiple).
— BP11: Only diagnostic services and data that are within the scope of the ISO 20730 series are
guaranteed to work in the context of ePTI.
— BP12: This document specifies the support of periodic technical inspection of safety-relevant
systems in road vehicles.
