An infill balise is provided for making available a state of a route component (for example of a signal) which lies ahead in the direction of travel of a rail line. Depending on a state of the route component, the infill balise brings about a change of the European train control system (ETCS) mode of a rail vehicle if the rail vehicle is in a manual travel mode or is 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 staff responsible mode or an on-site mode). The solution can preferably be used in conjunction with ETCS level 1 applications.
