General(1) The radio frequency energy generated by the MCS system may be hazardous topersonal health. To eliminate the potential danger, Honeywell recommends thatoperators of the MCS system implement safety procedures.(2) When the MCS system is in operation, personnel should remain at a distance fromthe antenna that is greater than the maximum permissible exposure level (MPEL)radius. Because there are many possible antenna locations, antenna gains, andsystem output powers, it is the responsibility of the operator to ascertain the MPELradius for their MCS system configuration and train their personnel in safe groundprocedures. The following warnings state Honeywell’s MPEL recommendations forboth high and low gain antennas.WARNING: TO AVOID POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS EXPOSURE TO RADIOFREQUENCY ENERGY ABOVE THE ANSI C95.1 LIMIT AND OTHERWORLD STANDARDS (SEE FIGURE INTRO--2) WHEN USING A HIGHGAIN ANTENNA (12 dB NOMINAL ANTENNA), DO NOT OPERATE THEMCS SYSTEM WHEN ANY PERSONNEL ARE WITHIN 8.5 FEET OF THEANTENNA OR WITHIN 20 FEET OF THE ANTENNA FOR PERIODS OFLONGER THAN 3 MINUTES PER HOUR.WARNING: TO AVOID POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS EXPOSURE TO RADIOFREQUENCY ENERGY ABOVE THE ANSI C95.1 LIMIT AND OTHERWORLD STANDARDS (SEE FIGURE INTRO--2) WHEN USING AINTERMEDIATE GAIN ANTENNA (6 dB NOMINAL ANTENNA), DO NOTOPERATE THE MCS SYSTEM WHEN ANY PERSONNEL ARE WITHIN 3FEET OF THE ANTENNA OR WITHIN 6 FEET OF THE ANTENNA FORPERIODS OF LONGER THAN 3 MINUTES PER HOUR.

Do not copy without express permission of Honeywell.Page 1--1SECTION 1SYSTEM DESCRIPTION1. OverviewA. General(1) The MCS--4200/7200 MCS is an augmented version of the MCS--4000/7000 systemcurrently certified and in use today by hundreds of operators. The MCS--4200/7200 isa mobile avionics communications system that supplies continuous worldwide voiceand data communications services to and from the aircraft via satellite.(2) The MCS system interfaces at baseband with various avionics data equipment, aswell as with crew and passenger voice equipment onboard the aircraft. It alsoprovides narrowband connectivity to support data--intensive airborne userapplications. The MCS--4200/7200 system utilizes the antenna subsystem totransmit/receive L--band RF signals to/from satellites in geostationary orbit. Thesesatellites convey the information to and from ground stations that interface with theterrestrial telephone network.(3) The MCS system augments and/or supersedes the present HF transceiver bysupplying higher quality voice service and by supplying data services at higher bitrates needed by datalink ATN applications, such as ADS and the internationalACARS. Additional services include cockpit communications with administrative andoperational personnel and with governmental bodies such as ATS. The system isdesigned to make sure that communications involving safety and regularity of flightare not delayed by the transmission and reception of other message types.(4) The MCS--4200/7200 system provides seven baseband communication channelscapable of supporting six simultaneous full--duplex circuit mode voice connectionsand one channel of packet--mode data. In addition, the MCS--4200/7200 systemprovides multiple channels of INMARSAT Swift64 and SwiftBroadband functionality.This Swift capability is configurable to support four MISDN channels, four MPDSchannels, or a mixture of each. By late ’07 or early ’08, this functionality will beenhanced (with a software upgrade to the HSU and perhaps the SDU, combined witha system configuration strap change) to supply a maximum of two SwiftBroadbandchannels as well. This is subject to the constraint that the resources necessary tosupport one SwiftBroadband channel are reserved at the expense of two Swift64channels, and vice versa.(5) The MCS--4200 system operates identically to the MCS--7200, except that it supportsonly four baseband communication channels (including one packet--mode datachannel) rather than the seven that are provided by the MCS--7200. The MCSsystem accommodates all four airborne categories of communications:•ATC•AOC•AAC•APC.

Aircraft Earth Station – General(1) General(a) The AES is fully compliant with requirements of ARINC Characteristics 741/761.Standard interfaces between the MCS--4200/7200 avionics and other aircraftavionics enables the AES to accept data and voice messages from varioussources, encode and modulate this information onto appropriate RF carrierfrequencies, and transmit these carriers to the space segment for relay to aGES. The AES also receives RF signals from a GES through the satellite,demodulates these signals, performs the necessary decoding of the encodedmessages, and outputs the data or voice message for use by the cockpit crew(pilot and copilot), the cabin crew or the passengers.(2) AES Components(a) General1A block diagram of the AES is shown in Figure 1--2. The AES is made up ofthe following components:•MCS SATCOM avionics•Antenna subsystem•Cabin communications system•Analog connected telephones•Cockpit voice sources•Aircraft avionics.(b) MCS Avionics1The MCS--4200/7200 avionics is made up of the SDU, the HSU and theHPA.2The SDU supplies the digital and analog interface to all aircraft avionics, andimplements all functionality associated with modulation/demodulation, errorcorrection, channel rate/frequency selection, and RF translation for thesystem’s seven baseband communication channels. The SDU’s sevenbaseband channels support six simultaneous full--duplex circuit--mode voiceconnections and one packet--mode channel.3The HSU incorporates the firmware necessary to support four narrowband(Swift64) channels, which provide simultaneous circuit--mode and/orpacket--mode connectivity concurrently with the SDU’s baseband channelsat rates of 64 kbps (per single channel) or 256 kbps (four combined [bondedISDN] channels). Ultimately, the HSU will be augmented – by softwareupgrade to the HSU, and perhaps the SDU, coupled with a systemconfiguration strap change – to support an additional two widebandchannels of 432 kbps (per single channel) SwiftBroadband functionality aswell. Note that when the HSU commits the resources necessary to support asingle SwiftBroadband channel, it simultaneously loses the capability toprovide two channels of Swift64 service (and vice versa).

The ORT contains more than 100 configurable entries (each with a default value) that are individually designated as either a user or secure (that is, installation-specific) item, as well as either Airbus modifiable or Airbus non-modifiable.

Oncemade, the ORT selections are preserved by the SDU across power and testcycles in non--volatile memory. In addition, the ORT is able to bedownloaded from or uploaded to the SDU from an external file storagemedium (such as diskettes) which serve as the file destination or file source,respectively.9The SDU/HSU combination supplies all essential services required toaccommodate effective air/ground communications by way of satellite whichuse the antenna and related RF components for both the cockpit and cabinenvironments.

The RFUIA is used in place of the RFU in a conventional ARINC 741 system, and replaces the HSU in those installations which utilize only the MCS-4200/7200 SATCOM system’s classic Inmarsat baseband features.    1  The primary function of the antenna subsystem is to complete the communication link between the GES/LES/SAS, the space segment, and the AES/MES/UE. The D/LNA is a three-port RF device (antenna, transmit, and receive) which provides signal routing and filtering – signals in the receive band are routed from the antenna port to the receive port, and transmit signals are routed from the transmit port to the antenna port. The LNA establishes the noise floor of the communication system’s receiver by boosting the signals received from the antenna to the maximum level relative to the noise received with the signals, as well as the noise developed by the LNA itself. For SwiftBroadband operations, the D/LNA must be a Type F (or later type approved for SwiftBroadband operation). Also, the selected antenna must be an Inmarsat-approved type for SwiftBroadband operation. 2  The HGA transmits L-band RF signals from the HPA to a satellite, and receives L-band RF signals from a satellite for the SDU and HSU. When installed, the LGA supplies backup communications (packet-data only) for the HGA by providing low-rate, Classic Aero (only) packet-data communication services. 3  The BSU or ACU is used in the HGA system to convert tracking and pointing coordinates (that is, aircraft-relative azimuth and elevation) from the SDU into signals needed to select the antenna array elements in combinations that point the antenna beam in the desired direction towards the satellite.

The CCS is partitionedinto two sections: the CTU and cabin/passenger communications equipment(digitally connected telephones).

The HSU interfaces with the airborne server by way of two Ethernet 10BaseT ports for MPDS, SwiftBroadband, and MISDN service, and by way of two ISDN ports for MISDN and SwiftBroadband service. 2  When using the Ethernet port for either SwiftBroadband, MISDN or MPDS services, PPPoE along with an SNMP-based ARINC MIB (in accordance with ARINC 781 Attachment 5) protocol is used to choose the service and to give to the HSU all the parameters needed to access the correct ground service provider for the service chosen. 3  A configuration discrete is used to configure the Ethernet ports so that all Swift64/SwiftBroadband channels use only one Ethernet port or both Ethernet ports.    1  The SDU is provisioned to support two simultaneous analog audio channels which use four-wire analog telephone interfaces such as Global-Wulfsberg Flitephone WH-10 handsets or an analog PBX (APBX). The WH-10 is a standalone handset with a 12-button keypad that utilizes discretes for call signaling functions. The APBX has analog trunk lines and in-line DTMF signaling.

Do not copy without express permission of Honeywell.Page 1--22(b) The format for baseband voice/data encoding follows the INMARSAT systemdefinitions for voice and data transmission and reception. The INMARSATsystem uses a digital format for voice and data. The SDU digitizes the voice ordata signal and adds special codes to make the aircraft–to–ground stationconnection possible. Voice signals are transmitted at a rate designed to supplyhigh voice quality (perceived quality is close to that of a good quality publictelephone line). When signal processing is complete, the coded voice/data signalis sent to HPA. The SDU also controls the protocols for automatic call setup andclear–down. System protocols are defined so the designated GES recognizes itis being called by the AES.(c) The SDU houses the voice interface modules and transcoder modems requiredfor baseband voice and data services, and the RF transmit/receive circuitryneeded to convert modulated signals of either type to an L–band frequency (andvice versa). All AES satellite signals use digital coding and modulation, whichinclude the voice circuits. The voice interface modules translate basebandanalog voice signals to and from the 9600 bps or 4800 bps digital codingstandard. Efficient information compression and coding techniques supply highvoice quality at an economical bit rate. The modems, one for eachcommunication channel, perform all of the physical layer signal processingfunctions, including multiplexing/demultiplexing, interleaving/de--interleaving,scrambling/unscrambling, modulation/demodulation, and Doppler effectcorrection.(d) The SDU system table memory contains the location of all satellites. When aGES is selected, the SDU uses this location information and aircraft positionalinformation (through an ARINC 429 interface) from the IRS to compute theposition of the satellite relative to the aircraft. The SDU then transmits pointingand tracking coordinates (aircraft relative azimuth and elevation) to the beamsteering unit (BSU) to permit optimum signal transmission and reception betweenthe high gain antenna subsystem and the satellite.(e) The high gain antenna subsystem translates these steering commands intocontrol signals to the antenna(s). Once the beam has been steered toward thesatellite, the SDU receives the pilot tone from the satellite transponder throughits receive RF link from the antenna subsystem.(f) In the SDU, the baseband data modulates RF carriers, which are sent to theHPA for amplification, and then to the antenna subsystem for transmission to thesatellite. The SDU can adjust the transmission frequency in one--Hertzincrements to compensate for the Doppler shift caused by the speed of theaircraft. The receive mode is handled in a similar manner. Since theMCS--4200/7200 is a full--duplex system, the transmit and receive signals areprocessed simultaneously as in conventional terrestrial telephone equipment.

Reason:  To change Paragraph (b) to replace baseband with Classic Aero and to change the capitalization of INMARSAT to Inmarsat. To add the ACU and ARINC 781 antenna to Paragraph (d).  Paragraphs (b) and (d) are changed as follows:   (b)  The format for Classic Aero voice/data encoding follows the Inmarsat system definitions for voice and data transmission and reception. The Inmarsat system uses a digital format for voice and data. The SDU digitizes the voice or data signal and adds special codes to make the aircraft-to-ground station connection possible. Voice signals are transmitted at a rate designed to supply high voice quality (perceived quality is close to that of a good quality public telephone line). When signal processing is complete, the coded voice/data signal is sent to HPA. The SDU also controls the protocols for automatic call setup and clear-down.

(1) (a), (b), and (c) to include additional references to SwiftBroadband and Swift64, as well as references to POTS. Some text was deleted.   Paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) are changed as follows:         (a)  The HSU provides four additional simultaneous full-duplex Swift64 64 kbps channels or two additional simultaneous full-duplex SwiftBroadband up-to-432 kbps channels to the MCS system when operated in conjunction with the SDU. The Swift64 channels accommodate digitized voice and data signals relayed to and from the airborne server at a maximum rate of 256 kbps when all four Swift64 channels are bonded to serve a single user or 128 kbps when two channels are bonded together. (b)  The channels provided by the HSU are accessed by way of the two BRI ISDN interfaces and/or the two Ethernet interfaces and/or the two POTS interfaces. The ISDN interface provides the following services: 64 kbits/s UDI, 64 kbits/s 3.1 kHz Audio, 64 kbits/s Speech and 56 kbits/s Data. The 10 Base T Ethernet interfaces are accessed through the PPPoE using PPPoE tags for service selection. (c)  A configuration discrete is provided to control the functionality of the Ethernet user interfaces, whether all channels are available on a first-come, first-served basis through either Ethernet interface, or whether half of the channels are available by way of one (and only one) of the Ethernet interfaces, and the other half of the channels are available by way of the other Ethernet interface (and only that interface). The default (open-circuit) state of this discrete is the former (first-come, first-served). The HSU supports APC calls only through its ISDN and/or Ethernet and/or POTS connections to the airborne server.

High Speed Data Unit(1) The HSU is partitioned into functional SRUs that are electronically interconnected byway of the motherboard. The major SRUs are:•PSU -- Power Supply Unit•CP -- Control Processor•DIO -- Data Input / Output•CC -- Channel Card (2 per unit).(a) The HSU provides four additional simultaneous full--duplex Swift64 64 kbpschannels to the MCS system when operated in conjunction with the SDU. Thisexpands (with a software upgrade to the HSU and perhaps SDU, in conjunctionwith a system configuration strap change) to include two more channels ofsimultaneous full--duplex SwiftBroadband 432 kbps channels (subject to theconstraint that resources consumed by one SwiftBroadband channel precludeoperation of two Swift64 channels, and vice versa). The channels provided bythe HSU are not (in contrast to the SDU) capable of supporting analog voicetransactions directly. Instead, these channels accommodate digitized voice anddata signals relayed to and from the airborne server at a maximum rate of 256kbps when all four Swift64 channels are bonded to serve a single user.(b) The channels provided by the HSU are accessed by way of the two BRI ISDNinterfaces and/or the two Ethernet interfaces. The ISDN interface provides thefollowing services 64 kbits/s UDI, 64 kbits/s 3.1 kHz Audio, 64 kbits/s Speechand 56 kbits/s Data. The 10 Base T Ethernet interfaces are accessed throughthe PPPoE using PPPoE tags for service selection.(c) A configuration discrete is provided to control the functionality of the Ethernetuser interfaces, whether all channels are available on a first--come, first--servedbasis through either Ethernet interface, or whether half of the channels areavailable by way of one (and only one) of the Ethernet interfaces, and the otherhalf of the channels are available by way of the other Ethernet interface (andonly that interface). The default (open--circuit) state of this discrete is the former(first--come, first--served). The HSU supports APC calls only through its ISDNand/or Ethernet connections to the airborne server.

Do not copy without express permission of Honeywell.Page 1--24(2) The HSU accepts the coded voice/data signals from the airborne server andmodulates them with the proper radio frequency for transmission to the HPA (foramplification) and on to the satellite. The transmission frequency is in the L--bandrange between 1626.5 and 1660.5 MHz, with 17.5 kHz (minimum) separating eachcommunication channel. The HSU adjusts the transmission frequency in 1--Hertzincrements to compensate for the Doppler shift caused by the speed of the aircraft.Navigation information from the SDU is required for the adjustment.(3) The HSU uses two 24--bit IDs, called a FRLP, for each Swift64 channel. Each pairconsists of a FID and a RID. Each HSU contains, in an ordered tabular format, allFRLPs allocated by INMARSAT to this HSU product. The HSU is pin programmedthrough its rear connector for one 24--bit FID. The HSU assigns this FID and thethree FIDs following it in the FRLP table, along with the associated RIDs, to the fourSwift64 channels. For security reasons, the FRLP is encrypted and the table contentsare not accessible to the user.(4) Honeywell uses a secure web database to store and allocate FRLPs to aircraft whenHSUs are installed. Installers need to contact a Honeywell customer support personand provide an aircraft ICAO and tail number, aircraft type and HSU part number toobtain an FRLP allocation. Additionally, the aircraft customer name and contactinformation needs to be provided. The support person accesses the database andenters the aircraft information. The web site checks that no IDs have been assignedto any of the parameters entered and returns the four FIDs, which indicate the onethat must be strapped. The customer support person conveys the FID assignment tothe installer and the customer.(5) The HSU is provisioned with an HSU Data Module (HDM) that contains channelidentification information required for SwiftBroadband operation. The HDM slides intoand out of the HSU via the front panel. Once the SwiftBroadband channelidentification information is assigned to an aircraft, the HDM must be tethered to theairframe and separated from the HSU if the HSU requires removal. Until the HSU isupgraded for SwiftBroadband operation (available late ’07 or early ’08), no channelidentification information is contained in the HDM, and it need not be tethered.D. High Power Amplifier(1) The SDU sends such information as power amplifier on/off commands andamplification gain commands to the HPA. The bi--directional link carries status andmaintenance information to the SDU such as gain verification, standing wave ratiodata, and indication of dangerous system conditions such as temperature warningsor power supply failures.(2) The HPA supplies RF power amplification of the L-band signals generated by theSDU and HSU to a power level required for transmission to the satellite. Becausemultiple signals are transmitted through the HPA, the HPA is a linear device (that is,operating class AB) capable of amplifying more than one signal at a time. An averageof 60 Watts RF output power is developed by the HPA while passing multiple signalswithout generating excessive intermodulation products.

(2) and (5) to include the latest system data and to change the capitalization of INMARSAT to Inmarsat in Paragraph (3).   Paragraphs C. (2), (3), and (5) are changed as follows:  (2)  The HSU accepts the coded voice/data signals from the airborne server or analog voice/fax/PC modem signals from the POTS interfaces and modulates them with the proper radio frequency for transmission to the HPA (for amplification) and on to the satellite. The transmission frequency is in the L-band range between 1626.5 and 1660.5 MHz, with 17.5 kHz (minimum) separating each communication channel. The HSU adjusts the transmission frequency in 1-Hertz increments to compensate for the Doppler shift caused by the speed of the aircraft. Navigation information from the SDU is required for the adjustment.  (3)  The HSU uses two 24-bit IDs, called a FRLP, for each Swift64 channel. Each pair consists of a FID and a RID.

The HDM slides into and out of the HSU via the front panel. The HDM for the SwiftBroadband-capable HSU (PN 7520061-34015) contains channel identification information required for SwiftBroadband operation. Once the SwiftBroadband channel identification information is assigned to an aircraft, the SwiftBroadband HDM must remain with the airframe and be separated from the HSU if the HSU requires removal. Conversely, the HDM in the Swift64-capable HSU (PN 7520061-34010) has no channel identification information, and should not be retained with the aircraft. The Swift64 HDM must remain with the HSU if the HSU requires removal.

(2) and add references to Classic Aero. To update the component descriptions in Paragraphs 4. A. (1) and (2) and change SRU to LRU, as necessary. Some text was deleted.  Paragraphs E. (2) and 4. A. (1) and (2) are changed as follows:         (2)  The MCS-4200/7200 system requires installation of an SDU, a 60-Watt HPA, and (optionally) an HSU. The SDU/HPA combination supports seven independent simultaneous channels for Classic Aero voice and data communications. One channel is dedicated to data and system management transactions. The remaining six channels are available for analog or digital voice communications. The SDU/HSU/HPA combination allows up to four Swift64 channels or up to two SwiftBroadband channels to operate concurrently with the system’s seven Classic Aero channels.     (1)  The MCS-4200/7200 system LRUs perform reliably under field conditions and permit ease of maintenance when required. Each unit is an LRU, as defined by ARINC Characteristic 600, to permit easy replacement of each unit. The internal SRUs use both digital and analog solid state circuitry constructed using a mixture of SMT and DIP technology.  (2)  All LRUs are built to standards that qualify them for both airline and business aircraft usage.

The SDU controls the gain of the HPA over a25-dB range in 1-dB increments through the ARINC 429 interface. This permits theautomatic adjustment of signal strength to compensate for a wide variety ofconditions. The HPA also measures output power and available power and reports tothe SDU, which uses the information to determine if additional calls can beaccommodated.(4) Under favorable propagation conditions, the full output power capability of the HPA isnot required. The HPA automatically consumes less power and dissipates less heatwhen full power is not used.E. Avionics Configurations(1) The SDU determines the configuration installed on the aircraft, including thepresence of optional peripherals, by examining the system configuration pins. TheSDU supports interaction only with those peripherals indicated as being present bythe configuration pins.(2) The MCS--4200/7200 system requires installation of an SDU, a 60--Watt HPA, and(optionally) an HSU. The SDU/HPA combination supports seven independentsimultaneous channels for baseband voice and data communications. One channelis dedicated to baseband data and system management transactions. The remainingsix channels are available for baseband analog or digital voice communications. TheSDU/HSU/HPA combination allows up to four narrowband Swift64 channels (initially)or up to two wideband SwiftBroadband channels (ultimately) to operate concurrentlywith the system’s seven baseband channels.4.

(1) are changed as follows:   (1)  The AES/MES/UE accepts data and voice signals from various sources, encodes the signals, modulates the information onto the appropriate RF carrier frequencies, and transmits these carriers to a GES/LES/SAS through satellite. The AES/MES/UE also receives RF signals from the satellites, demodulates and decodes these signals, and outputs data or voice messages for passengers or flight crew members. System operation begins when the P-channel transmission from a GES in the satellite region is received. The AES then logs onto the GES to establish the uplink and exchange information. If an HSU is installed, each of the Swift64 or SwiftBroadband channels will sequentially register with an LES/SAS. System operation terminates when the AES logs off from the GES.    (1)  At any time, different satellite regions can have different satellite configurations. All satellites have the global beam capability to receive the continuous Psmc-channel transmission of every GES in view. For a spot beam satellite, each spot beam is associated with at least one GES having a continuous P-channel transmission. Selected channels from the Psmc- and Pd-channels are designated by Inmarsat for satellite and spot beam selection.

General(1) The AES accepts data and voice signals from various sources, encodes the signals,modulates the information onto the appropriate RF carrier frequencies, and transmitsthese carriers to a GES through satellite. The AES also receives RF signals from thesatellites, demodulates and decodes these signals, and outputs data or voicemessages for passengers or flight crew members.

If an HSU isinstalled, each of the Swift64 channels will sequentially register with an LES. Systemoperation terminates when the AES logs off from the GES.2. AES ManagementA. General(1) At any time, different satellite regions can have different satellite configurations. Allsatellites have the global beam capability to receive the continuous Psmc--channeltransmission of every GES in view. For a spot beam satellite, each spot beam isassociated with at least one GES having a continuous P--channel transmission.Selected channels from the Psmc-- and Pd--channels are designated by INMARSATfor satellite and spot beam selection.(2) An AES logs onto a GES to enter the satellite communications system and logs off toterminate its operation in the system. Log-off is initiated automatically or by a usercommand issued as part of normal operational procedures.(3) The AES also logs off before initiating handover. The AES does not log off ifhandover is initiated because of degradation or loss of the P--channel. Handover canbe initiated by the flight crew, or can be carried out automatically by the AES withouthuman intervention. A handover procedure is followed automatically when an AESneeds to change the log-on GES or to access a different satellite.(4) When an AES receives a higher level instruction, for example, a command from theflight crew, to change its log-on to another GES operating in the same satelliteregion, any previously established data communication channels are maintained untilclearing before the handover is carried out. In the case of a user command-initiatedsatellite-to-satellite handover, the AES ensures all communication channels are clearprior to starting the handover procedure. If any connections are in progress, the AESapplies time supervision of three minutes and then clears any remaining connections.(5) Automatic handover is initiated upon detection of Pd--channel link degradationdefined as:•Error rate above 104over an averaging period of 3 minutes•More than 10 short--term interruptions (loss of P--channel clock synchronization forless than 10 seconds) in any 3 minute period.
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION, INSTALLATION, AND MAINTENANCE MANUALMCS--4200/7200 Multi--Channel SATCOM System23--20--35 15 Jul 2006Honeywell International Inc. Do not copy without express permission of Honeywell.Page 2--2(6) Automatic handover is also initiated upon detection of loss of the Pd--channel definedas:•Loss of clock synchronization for more than 10 seconds•An unsucessful log-on renewal procedure.(7) A GES-to-GES handover is carried out by logging onto a new GES in the samesatellite region. The required P--channel frequency can be found in the system table.Each GES maintains an up-to-date status table of all AESs that have logged on.Each GES also has an inter-GES signaling capability that permits the GES to set upcalls with any AES operating in the same satellite region as that GES, and managesthe AESs during handover.(8) If the AES attempts to renew its log-on and fails to log on to its previous GES or tothe preferred alternative GES after a log-on prompt, loss of P--channel quality, or alog-on renewal request from an application, the AES returns to the latter stages ofthe initial search procedure and scans the spot beam primary Pd--channels on itscurrent satellite to identify an alternative spot beam. The required P--channelfrequencies are found in the system table. Once an alternative spot beam isidentified, the AES renews its log-on automatically to a preferred GES.(9) During log-on renewal, if the AES is unable to log onto its previous GES or to anotherGES in the same satellite region, then the AES enters the search mode to select thePsmc--channel frequency of a GES operating in a new satellite region. The requiredP--channel frequency is found in the system table. Having selected a new suitablequality Psmc--channel (in another satellite region) and updating the system table forthe new satellite region (if necessary), the AES carries out a log-on procedure withthe new GES.(10) Each AES maintains a system table stored in nonvolatile memory in the SDU. Thesystem table contains the data EIRP table, the satellite and GES identifyinginformation, such as satellite Psid--channel frequencies, satellite locations andassociated GES IDs, GES capabilities, and GES Psmc--channel frequencies. Thesystem table does not lose its contents because of loss of primary power.(11) The SDU also maintains a bootstrap system table containing a default set of satelliteand GES identifying information. This information includes satellite Psid--channelfrequencies, satellite location and associated GES IDs, plus satellite inclination andright ascension, spot beam support, and GES Psmc--channel frequencies that are setto zero.(12) The bootstrap system table is loaded into the SDU as an inseparable part of theupload of executable software. The SDU defaults to the bootstrap system table in theabsence of a stored system table, or upon execution of a factory settings restart. Thedefault data for a satellite is used until that satellite is first accessed. Then a completeupdate of the data for that satellite happens. Satellite region blocks that have not yetbeen updated over the air are marked with a null revision number.

Reason:  To add references to Swift64, SwiftBroadband, and SAS, as well as incorporate other minor changes, to Paragraphs B. (1) thru (4). Some text was deleted.  Paragraphs B. (1) thru (4) are changed as follows:   (1)  If an HSDU is installed, each of its channels sequentially register for Swift64 or SwiftBroadband service when the AES achieves log-on. (2)  The LES/SAS selected for registration is based on satellite and LES/SAS preference set in the ORT. (3)  Two sets of preferences in the ORT define MPDS and ISDN preferences since service providers may be different between MPDS and ISDN. The respective MPDS or ISDN Swift64 service is only initiated if and when the service is initiated by a ground or airborne user. (4)  The registration process starts with the preferred LES/SAS. A preference level of 9 is the highest and 1 is the lowest and 0 indicates no access.

HSDU Installed(1) If an HSDU is installed, each of the four channels sequentially register for ISDNservice when the AES achieves log--on.(2) The LES selected for registration is based on satellite and LES preference set in theORT.(3) A second set of preferences in the ORT defines MPDS operation since serviceproviders may be different between MPDS and ISDN. MPDS registration only occursif and when an MPDS session is initiated.(4) The registration process starts with the preferred LES. A preference level of 9 is thehighest and 1 is the lowest and 0 indicates no access.3. System Log-On/Log-OffA. General(1) Two operational modes are available for AES log-on:•Automatic•User commanded (constrained).(2) In the automatic mode, the AES operation is fully automatic with satellite log-on andhandover procedures occurring without external control. In the user commandedmode, the flight crew or flight control system is able to select the satellite and GES forlog-on and handover, and can initiate handovers at any time. The automatic mode isconsidered the normal mode of operation.(3) The log-on/log-off of an AES to/from the satellite communications system lets theGES manage the number of AESs that can receive a P--channel (Pd) and transmit oneach R--channel (Rd). This controls the queuing delays and burst collisionprobabilities that can be experienced. When an AES is powered up, it enters a GESselection mode if the log-on policy is set to automatic. This permits the AES to selectthe most preferred GES operating in its visible satellite region (there may be one ortwo satellites visible to the AES), and that GES is selected for log-on. If the log-onpolicy is not set to automatic, the AES waits for the GES to be selected through theuser commanded mode (or for a reversion to the automatic mode).(4) After selecting a GES, the AES tries to acquire one of the identifying Psmc--channel(Psid) frequencies of the satellite contained in the initial system table. Typically thereare two frequencies per satellite (or group of satellites if several satellites supplyservice to essentially one region). The AES receives that Psmc--channel until one ofthe system table’s broadcast signal units is received, which permits the AES todetermine whether the revision number of the system table currently stored in theSDU is valid. If the revision number for the AES is out-of-date, an AES updatingprocedure is implemented.
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION, INSTALLATION, AND MAINTENANCE MANUALMCS--4200/7200 Multi--Channel SATCOM System23--20--35 15 Jul 2006Honeywell International Inc. Do not copy without express permission of Honeywell.Page 2--4(5) When the revision number is verified as correct, the AES checks for any entries in thesatellite spot beam search table. If an entry exists, the AES checks the Pd--channelfrequencies of all spot beams supported by the selected GES to identify the mostapplicable spot beam. The AES then determines which Pd--channel has the highestsignal quality. Once this task is complete, the AES is ready to log-on to the satellitecommunications system using the selected GES and the optimum spot beam, or theglobal beam if the GES does not operate a P--channel in the required spot beam.(6) The AES initiates the log-on procedure by tuning to the Psmc--channel (global beam)of the selected GES and sending a log-on request signal unit on one of thecorresponding Rsmc--channels. If the log-on request signal unit cannot be acceptedby the GES, because of reasons like GES overload, invalid message, unauthorizedaccess, etc, the GES responds with a log-on reject signal unit, which includes thecause of the rejection. Upon receipt of a log--on reject, the AES will select the nextmost preferred GES.(7) The AES uses the log-on request signal unit to supply the selected GES with its ownidentification (a 24-bit ICAO aircraft identification code), plus the identification of thespot beam where the AES is located. A zero value is used in the spot beamidentification field of the log-on message if:•No spot beam on the selected satellite•AES is out of any spot beam coverage area•Selected GES does not operate a Pd--channel in the required spot beam.(8) The AES also informs the GES of the number of C--channels the AES is equipped tohandle, the bit rate/coding algorithm in use on the voice channels, and the data bitrate capability for the R--channels, P--channels, and T--channels. Except for thenumber of C--channels and the data bit rate capability, this information is repeated inthe log-on confirm signal unit for use by other GESs.(9) An AES having circuit-mode data service capability and desiring allocation ofcircuit-mode data capable channel units at the GES for every ground-to-air call,informs the GES of the type of interface required. The interface is either analoginterconnect or digital interconnect. If the GES does not support circuit-mode dataservice, it ignores the information. If the GES supports the service, it registers theinformation in its log-on AES table and retransmits the information for use by otherGESs.(10) The AES supplies the GES with its flight identification number at log-on, if theowner/operator of the AES desires to use the aircraft flight identification as theaddress for ground originated calls. The use of this information in the GES dependsupon the services being offered, and therefore is at the discretion of the GESoperator.

Do not copy without express permission of Honeywell.Page 2--5(11) The AES selects the appropriate EIRP setting for Rd--channels and T--channels fromthe data EIRP table. The GES assigns a Pd--channel from the available channels,taking into account the loadings on the channels, the need to use a P--channel of lowpower if possible, and the need to supply some means of recovery from P--channeldegradation or failure. The ability to work with a low power P--channel is determinedby the AES class. If the GES assigns a Pd--channel different than the Psmc--channel,the GES transmits the new channel frequency to the AES using the P/R--channelcontrol signaling message following the log-on confirm.(12) If the GES is using more than one set of R--channel frequencies and assigns newRd--channels to the aircraft, the GES transmits the new channel frequencies (up toeight) to the AES using the signaling message(s) that follow the log-on confirm. Inaddition, the GES transmits from one to four T--channel frequencies to the AES ifdata services are supplied.(13) The GES assigns data channels at the highest agreeable bit rate supplied in both theAES and GES, and supported by the combination of the satellite in use and the classof AES. Subsequent log-on transactions for handover use Rsmc-- andPsmc--channels in the same manner as the initial log-on transaction.B. Automatic Log-On(1) The SDU supports two types of log-on:•Automatic•Constrained mode.(2) The SDU implements the automatic log-on mode upon user command if the AES iscurrently logged-off, AES is logging-on, or AES is logged-on in the constrained mode.Automatic log-on is also implemented by the SDU, if ORT item i (log-on policy)indicates automatic at startup. The user command can originate from either theSCDU, from the analog connected telephone handsets, or from the commissioningand maintenance terminal (CMT).(3) When the AES is in the automatic mode, the log-on GES/satellite/spot beam chosenis based on the GES preference (ORT item iii). A GES with a preference level of zerois not considered for automatic log-on. The SDU allows the use of tied GESpreferences. The SDU resolves tied preferences by selecting the GESs indescending order of satellite elevation. During GES selection, the set (as yet untied)of GESs with the highest preference are initially processed to exclude those GESsassociated with satellites not in view.(4) Satellites are deemed in view if they are above the elevation handover thresholdspecified in ORT item xxxix, or their elevation is higher than 1 degree less than theelevation of the highest satellite. If no IRS data is available and the currently selectedantenna is the low gain antenna, then all satellites are deemed to be in view. Theremainder of the GESs in the preference group are then sorted into a list by satelliteelevation and GES on the highest elevation satellite chosen for initial access. If morethan one GES in the preference group have the same satellite elevation, then thoseGESs are ordered by a pseudo-random choice algorithm with a uniform probabilitydensity.

Do not copy without express permission of Honeywell.Page 2--6C. Constrained Log-On(1) Constrained log-on is where the user manually selects the specific GES to be usedfor log-on. The user command can originate from either the SCDU, from theanalog-connected telephone handsets, or from the CMT. The GES preferencesspecified in ORT item iii have no effect in the constrained log-on mode, and it ispossible to execute a constrained log-on to a GES with a preference level of zero.(2) If the user has manually selected the log-on GES, and therefore also selected thesatellite, the SDU is constrained to search for the specific GES-related satellite Psidfrequency (or frequencies), the set of spot beam Pd frequencies where the selectedGES radiates P--channels, and the selected GES Psmc frequency during the log-onsequences. If the specific GESs satellite Psid frequencies cannot be acquired, theSDU takes no action other than to reattempt the acquisition with alternate modems. Ifnone of the GES-related spot beam Pd frequencies can be acquired, the SDU startsthe GES Psmc frequency search as it would normally do after acquiring a spot beamfrequency. If the GES Psmc frequency cannot be acquired, the SDU reattempts theacquisition indefinitely. This state of unsuccessful satellite/GES Psmc frequencyacquisition is exited either by the frequency being acquired, or by a user command toselect automatic log-on, by selection of a different satellite/GES, or to log-off.(3) Once logged-on in this mode with the GES constrained, only spot beam handovertakes place. The user is able to exit this constrained log-on mode by commandinglog-off, by selecting the automatic log-on mode, or by cycling SDU primary power (ifORT item i log--on policy is auto log--on.D. Log-On Mode Selection(1) User selection of the automatic log-on mode while the AES is logging-on in theconstrained mode causes the SDU to abort the current log-on attempt and revert tothe automatic mode. User selection of the automatic log-on mode while the AES islogged-on in the constrained mode causes the SDU to log-off from the currentconstrained GES, and to revert to the automatic mode if there are GESs in view withhigher preference levels than the current log-on GES. User selection of the automaticmode when the AES is logged-off causes the SDU to implement automatic log-on.The SDU lets the user command log-off while the AES is logging-on or logged-on inthe constrained or automatic mode.(2) The user is able to change the selected GES if the AES is logging-on or is logged onin the constrained mode. The user can enter the constrained mode by selecting aspecified GES while the SDU is logging-on or is logged-on in the automatic mode. Inboth cases, providing the constrained GES selection is different from theautomatically chosen GES, the SDU either aborts the current log-on attempt orlogs-off from the current GES before attempting to log-on to the new GES, dependingupon the current status.

Do not copy without express permission of Honeywell.Page 2--7E. Handover(1) The SDU causes the AES to initiate a handover procedure for the following reasons:•Automatic handover occurs when the AES is logged-on in the automatic orconstrained mode, because of P--channel degradation.•Automatic handover occurs when the AES is logged-on in the automatic mode,because of the log-on satellite being below the elevation handover thresholdspecified in ORT item xxxix, with another satellite being at least 1 degree higherthan the log-on satellite for more than 10 seconds.•Automatic handover occurs as specified in ORT item xxii for 10 seconds becauseof the reported HGA Tx gain being less than the threshold value when the AES islogged-on in the automatic or constrained mode.•User command is issued to select the constrained mode when the AES islogged-on (or awaiting log-on acknowledge) in the automatic mode if theconstrained selection is different from the current, automatically selected GES.•User command is issued to select the constrained mode for a particular GESwhen the AES is currently logged-on (or awaiting log-on acknowledge) to adifferent GES, but also in the constrained mode.•User command is issued to select the automatic mode when the AES is logged-on(or awaiting log-on acknowledge) in the constrained mode if a GES exists with ahigher preference level than the current log-on GES.•User command is issued to adjust the GES preference levels if the AES islogged-on (or awaiting log-on acknowledge) in the automatic mode, and theadjustment results in any GES having a higher preference level than the currentlog-on GES.(2) The SDU logs off from the current log-on GES before logging onto the new GES forall of the above handover stimuli, except for automatic handover because ofP--channel degradation and automatic handover because of the reported HGA Txgain being less than the threshold value.(3) If any modems are being used for circuit--mode voice when a handover to a GES in adifferent satellite region occurs, then the SDU terminates the current C--channel callswith an SLCV cause of 1221x. The SDU also causes a suitable voice pacifiermessage (Sorry, your call can no longer be sustained) to be sent to each currentlyin-use digital or analog headset to inform each user of the reason for the calltermination. The SDU does not clear down any ongoing C--channel calls if thehandover is local to the current satellite region.F. Log-Off(1) Log-off is initiated in the AES by a user command, either from the SCDU, from theanalog-connected telephone handset, or from the CMT. Log-off is also initiated by theSDU as part of the handover sequence, except for handovers implemented becauseof P--channel degradation.

The SDU and HPA are capable of transferring the data sets listed inTable 2-1 through these ports.Table 2-1. Data Set Upload/DownloadLRU Data Set Upload/DownloadSDU Operational Software Upload OnlyOwner Requirements Table Upload and DownloadEvent and Failure Logs Download OnlyMaintenance Activity Log Download OnlyPeriodic Data Logging (SDU system andoperational parameters)Download OnlyHPA Operational Software Upload Only(2) In Table 2-1, upload is defined as the transfer of a data set from the ARINC 615 dataloader to the appropriate LRU. A download is defined as the transfer of a data setfrom an appropriate LRU to the ARINC 615 data loader. The data set to betransferred is independent of the port used. If during a data transfer session the otherport becomes active, the session associated with the initially activated port continuesto completion before initiating any session with the other port. The software uploadfunction is resident in the bootstrap program and functions independently of anyuploadable software in the LRU.B. Software Upload Process(1) The uploading of the software is done by either connecting a PDL to the ARINC 615connector port on the LRU to be programmed, or (in the case of an ADL) by the userselecting the LRU to be programmed. With the data loader connected, the Link Aconnection is completed.(2) The diskette containing a configuration file and a file containing the software to beuploaded is inserted into the disk drive of the data loader. The configuration filecontains information for the data loader (ADL or PDL) to configure itself for operation.All MCS ORT download/upload diskettes contain a configuration file located in theroot directory of the diskette with the filename CONFIG.LDR. The data loader readsthe configuration file and initializes itself according to the parameters read. The dataloader then repeatedly transmits an RTS word.

Do not copy without express permission of Honeywell.Page 2--9(3) With the operational software running, the SDU software upload is initiated only after:•SDU senses the low impedance state on Link A.•SDU determines it is not airborne (unless the operational software is not validwhere the on-ground/airborne state is ignored).•SDU detects receiving an RTS word with a system address label (SAL) equal to307.(4) The HPA software is similarly initiated only after the requirements mentioned aresatisfied, except software uploading is also enabled when a valid air/ground statusfrom the SDU is not available to the LRU.(5) For the LRUs, the software upload is a single pass process. Upload validation checksboth the LRU and SRU header records for applicability. Each data loader block isthen transferred directly to the program store. When the software upload iscompleted, the program store CRC is checked over defined regions of the programstore. If either validation process fails, the software upload process aborts. Furtherupload attempts can only be initiated by resetting both the data loader and the LRU.When successfully validated, the LRU causes the data loader to initiate the transfercomplete function and the LRU remains in the data load state, while the Link Aconnection remains intact. When the Link A connection is removed, the HPAperforms a POST and the SDU performs a factory settings restart. A factory settingsrestart results in Category C nonvolatile data being set to default values followed byexecution of POST/PAST.C. Validation of the Software Upload File(1) The following items are validated when software is loaded:•First two bytes of each LRU/SRU header record indicates a valid record type forthe record position in the data sequence.•Company name in the LRU header record must be HONEYWELL/RACAL.•LRU name and base part number must match the current LRU specification asgiven on the LRU nameplates.•Software compatibility codes in each SRU ID PROM must appear in the list ofcompatible hardware/software codes for every SRU listed in the LRU header.

The ORT contains informationrelating to different areas of functionality like log-on and telephony. The ORT doesnot lose its contents because of the loss of SDU primary power or as a result ofPAST. All ORT contents are set to default values by a factory settings restart. TheORT contains all pilot and aircraft operator entered information preserved when theSDU is powered-down.(2) Validity of the ORT content is determined by the SDU using a checksum process.This verification is performed at the time of each power-up. An invalid checksumresults in the SDU reverting to the default values specified in TESTING/FAULTISOLATION, ORT default value usage. The contents of the ORT are specified inAppendix C.(3) The ORT items are organized into two distinct partitions:•Secured•User.(4) The individual ORT items defined in Table C--1 are assigned to a partition by thedesignation of secured or user in the attributes column.(5) The secured partition contains those items the equipment manufacturer, aircraftmanufacturers, and certification authorities have determined to beconfiguration-dependent and crucial to the proper operation of the SATCOM system.The user partition contains all other items of the ORT. The user partition typicallyincludes items the aircraft operator is able to set or modify, enabling the efficient useof the equipment in normal operation. A composite ORT file contains all items (bothpartitions) in the ORT. This version of ORT is defined to supply a consistent interface(single ORT file) to those users that do not require the additional security supplied bythe management of two partitions for essential certification.(6) The content of the ORTs in both SDUs in a dual system is intended to be identical.For the sake of ORT requirements that must be capable of being different in SDUs 1and 2, the ORT items affected are duplicated within the ORT. Each of those items iscapable of storing separate, independent entries for SDUs 1 and 2, to be used byeach particular SDU as appropriate based on the strapping of its systemconfiguration pins TP13E/F. The lone SDU in a single system uses the entry for SDU1 for duplicated items. ORT items not duplicated are said to be common, where thesingle entry applies to SDUs 1 and 2 in dual systems as well as to the lone SDU in asingle system.

The configurationfile contains information for the data loader (ADL or PDL) to configure itself foroperation. All MCS ORT download/upload diskettes contain a configuration filelocated in the root directory of the diskette with the filename CONFIG.LDR.(2) The ORT upload/download file is named SDU_ORT.TAB. This file is made up of anORT header record followed by the ORT data. The ORT format version in the ORTheader record is an indication of the ORT data contained in the upload/download file.B. Startup(1) ORT downloading/uploading is initiated through the SCDU page or the CMT page.The diskette containing a configuration file is inserted into the data loader, whichreads the configuration files and initializes itself according to the parameters read.The data loader then repeatedly transmits a POLL word. The LRU detects receiving aPOLL word and initiates the ORT download/upload.(2) In the event no configuration file is present or the diskette is not formatted, the dataloader solicits a subsystem identification. The SDU does not respond to thecommand and the data loader performs a change disk or a read/write fail.C. ORT Download(1) The ORT file is transferred using the control mode download sequence. If insufficientspace exists to contain an ORT, the transfer operation terminates. A file nameSDU_ORT.TAB is created on the ORT diskette. This file replaces any existing file withthe same name. An ORT header is written at the head of the file. The ORT formatversion written into the header is the latest version supported by the installedsoftware build. After transferring the header record, the ORT data is written to the fileuntil the whole data table is transferred. The file is then closed and a load completefunction is commanded. When an error is detected during the ORT download (that is,unable to create file, ARINC 615 transfer failure, etc.) the download process abortsand an ADL/PDL error status is indicated on the SCDU/CMT.D. Control Mode ORT Upload Procedures(1) Upload the ORT through the MCDU (SCDU)(a) Make sure the ADL switch in the cockpit has SDU (SAT or SATCOM) selected, ora PDL is connected to the SDU and the MCS system is logged off.(b) Insert an ORT diskette containing the ORT file SDU_ORT.TAB, plus theCONFIG.LDR file into the ADL/PDL.

The call setup sequence for acircuit-mode data call is identical to a standard telephone call setup sequence,except when the AES must indicate to the GES circuit-mode data operation canbe invoked at some point during the call. Sub-band signaling circuit-mode data isimplemented using the data interface unit (DIU) technique, which is anontransparent design that uses sub-band C--channel capacity for end-to-endsignaling. These signaling transactions require diversion of the input/output (I/O)bit-stream from the SDU codecs to either a DIU (for PC modem applications) or asecure voice coding unit.(3) Primary-Band Signaling(a) Primary-band circuit-mode data is implemented using the terminal interfacefunction (TIF) technique, which uses primary-band C--channel capacity forend-to-end signaling. The TIF is integrated within the SDU codec. Allcircuit-mode data activation and deactivation procedures relating to circuit-modedata operation are automatically performed within the TIF. The TIFencodes/decodes circuit-mode PC modem data and facsimile data using analgorithm.8. Packet-Data ServicesA. General(1) Data services are available in the form of a standard data interface that supportsData-2 and Data-3 as defined by INMARSAT. Data-3 complies with InternationalStandards Organization (ISO) standard 8208 for open systems interconnection.Data-3 permits the operator to connect to the MCS system any data terminalequipment (DTE) compatible with this international standard. The transmission rateavailable to the operator depends on the aircraft equipment, and in particular on theantenna gain. It also depends on the capabilities of the satellite serving that particularregion of the earth and the GES logged-on to the satellite.(2) Within the scope of the normal mode of operation, packet mode data messages arehandled by two basic types of data service. Small messages (up to 128 bytes) arehandled by one self-contained message that includes the information required to setup and clear the circuit as well as the data itself. This connectionless messagetraverses the communication link autonomously and quickly.(3) Longer messages must be divided into a string of shorter messages for which aconnection-oriented circuit is set up. When the connection is established, allsubsequent data packets carry abbreviated address and control information. Thissupplies more efficiency for longer messages and inquiry/response data dialogueswith no limit set on the length of individual messages.

Do not copy without express permission of Honeywell.Page 2--169. Dual SATCOM ConfigurationA. Overview(1) General(a) Dual SATCOM configuration is one where two SDUs work together in amaster/slave relationship. This configuration also uses dual antenna systems.(b) Dual SATCOM systems can be used to supply backup redundancy forcircuit-mode and packet-mode safety communications, or for additionalcircuit-mode channel capability, or both. Each system in a dual system has thecapability to function without the other if necessary (as a sole single system whilethe other has failed or is disabled), or to work with the other system as acoordinated pair. There are three distinctions made for dual systems regardingthe SDUs:(2) No. 1 versus No. 2(a) This is a static distinction as determined by the programmed state of the SDUsystem configuration pin. (No. 1 and No. 2 can also be referred to as left andright, respectively, on Boeing aircraft.)(3) Master versus Slave(a) This is a logical and potentially dynamic distinction. Because an aircraft can haveonly one ICAO address assigned to it, dual MCS systems operate with a singlemaster SDU and the other as slave SDU. Each SDU is capable of providing itsservices with no assistance from the other SDU (such as, when the other SDU ispowered-down). Each SDU is capable of being the master or the slave. Thereare never two masters or two slaves (except during brief switching transients andcertain failure plus manual override conditions). The master does not depend onthe slave for any of the services supplied directly by the master.(b) The master is in control. Only the master is allowed to use the P, R, and Tpacket-mode channels for log-on and other satellite system management,Data--2, Data--3, and GES--specific data broadcast (GSDB) packet-mode dataservices, and circuit-mode call setups. The slave (which must be equipped withan HGA in order to be a true slave from the perspective of offering additionalchannel capacity) does not perform log-on or any packet-mode data function, butis only used to supply additional C-channels for circuit-mode services undercontrol of the master. The master controls all circuit-mode call setups,preemptions, and selective releases. Normal ongoing slave system callmanagement (such as, power control) and call termination are controlled by theslave SDU.(c) In a dual system made up of an HGA and an LGA, if the LGA-equipped SDU isthe master, it cannot use the HGA-equipped system as a slave. The LGA mastermust be capable of operation through its LGA and must log-on as a Class 1AES. If the slave is only equipped with an LGA, it cannot function as a true slave,but only as a standby backup system for low-rate packet-mode data services,ready to take over as master in case the original master fails.

Do not copy without express permission of Honeywell.Page 2--17(d) A system is said to be disabled when it is inhibited from making any RFtransmissions. This disabling can be because of a failure or being manuallyinhibited through the control interfaces. Any disabled SDU indicates this in bit 12of its label 276 status word. If a system is not disabled, it is enabled. When onesystem is disabled, the other is usually selected, that is, the selected system isessentially a single system and cannot use any potential slave resources in thedisabled system. It is possible both systems can be manually disabled for specialpurposes like when maintenance or deicing personnel are in close proximity tothe antennas. The master controls the system functional capability indicators andindicates itself as the master to the MU, cabin packet data function (CPDF), andCTU. This is true even when both SDUs are disabled (there must still be adesignated master).(4) This versus Other(a) This is a relational distinction where this refers to any and all SDUs in dualsystems, and other refers to the companion SDU interfaced to this SDU ARINC429 cross-talk bus (XTB) and select/disable discretes.B. Dual System Control/Status Interfaces(1) Manual and automatic control of the master/slave/select/disable attributes of the twosystems are done by using the XTB between the two SDUs (one high-speed ARINC429 bus in each direction), and by the dual system select discrete I/O and dualsystem disable discrete input discretes, which are cross-wired between the twoSDUs. Figure 2-2 shows a classic wiring diagram.(2) The select and disable discretes are normally in a high-impedance state. The selectoutput supplies a low-impedance to ground when it is asserting, and the select anddisable inputs are pulled low to be asserted. An optional external switch can also besupplied to manually select one system while disabling the other. A switch normallyleaves both discretes open-circuited, enabling fully automatic control. The optionalswitch can additionally have the enhanced capability of simultaneously disabling bothsystems while selecting neither. Manual control is also supplied through the SCDUsfor cases where the optional external switch is not supplied.(3) The disable discrete is an input only. It is automatically asserted by the other SDUselect output when attempting to perform an aggressive handover of mastery. It canalso be manually asserted when the crew has determined this system has failed.(4) The select discrete is a combination input and open-collector-type output. Activationof this discrete by the crew indicates this system should be the sole master and itmust not attempt to use the other as a slave. If an SDU detects the other system hasfailed, it can activate its own select output, which disables the other system andtypically becomes the sole master.

System Reversion(1) General(a) The dual MCS system can change which SDU is master automatically ormanually. Automatic system reversion of handover of mastery from the currentmaster to the current slave is done through cooperative, aggressive, and specialhandovers.(2) Automatic System Reversion(a) Cooperative handover of mastery is performed through the XTB and does notmake use of the select/disable discretes. The current master continuallyassesses the potential service capabilities of each system, including the usage ofthe other’s resources as a slave for providing additional voice services. Sincedifferent aircraft owners/operators can value the individual assessed servicecapabilities differently, weighting factors are selected in the ORT to reflect therelative importance of the various capabilities. This flexibility allows allcapabilities to be compared equally, or for any one capability to outweigh all ofthe others combined, or any combination between these extremes. When thecurrent master determines the current slave should become the new master, thecurrent master indicates it is abdicating its mastery. The slave detects theabdication of the master and takes over as master.

Do not copy without express permission of Honeywell.Page 2--19(b) Aggressive handover of mastery (used when cooperation is impossible becauseof XTB failure, manual intervention, or other reasons) makes use of theselect/disable discretes for mastery handover. An SDU asserts its select output(connected to the Disable input of the other SDU) and commands Disable OtherSATCOM on its XTB output to the other SDU (in its Dual Control/Status word).When an SDU detects its disable discrete input has been asserted, or it hasreceived a Disable Other SATCOM command through the XTB, it immediatelyasserts its My Disable Is Asserted bit in its dual control/status word on its XTBoutput, and after being so disabled for 1 second or longer, it then inhibits RFtransmissions and asserts its This SDU Is Disabled bit in its dual control/statusword.(c) If the master SDU main processor resets itself, handover of mastery occurswhen the slave detects XTB inactive (unless the slave is externally disabled).(3) Manual System Reversion(a) The cockpit crew can manually select one system as the sole master and disablethe other system using an external select/disable switch or through the SCDUdisable other SATCOM line select key. This permits manual system reversion forspecial cases, like undetected failures. Some external select/disable switchesmay permit both systems to be disabled simultaneously for special casesinvolving close proximity to the SATCOM antennas of maintenance or deicingpersonnel.(b) The SCDU line select key makes use of the XTB as well as the select/disablediscretes to send the appropriate command to the other SDU, thus optimizing therobustness of this function.D. Antenna Configurations(1) A number of dual system antenna configurations can be assembled to addressvarious user requirements for availability and channel capability, containing variouscombinations of LGA--, HGA-- or IGA--equipped systems — that is, HGA(IGA) +HGA(IGA), HGA(IGA) + LGA, or LGA + LGA. The IGA equipment can be usedinterchangeably (when airplane installation supports) with the HGA equipment. AnyHGA in a dual (or single) system can function as a logically distinct steered LGAwhen its gain drops below 7 dB. Also possible is one pseudo-dual system plus oneHGA system — that is, (HGA+LGA) + HGA.(2) The basic configurations supported by the MCS dual system design are as given inTable 2-2.

Thisconfiguration is normally capable of providing six circuit-mode channels plus one(potentially) high-rate packet-mode data channel. It supplies single-point failuretolerance for low--rate packet-mode data services. Channel unit redundancy withinthe HGA system supplies a limited but very flexible degree of failure tolerance forcircuit-mode and high-rate packet-mode services.(5) Figure 2-5, Figure 2-6, and Figure 2-7 show the three types of the HGA + HGAconfiguration. This configuration is normally capable of providing 12 circuit-modechannels plus one (potentially) high-rate packet-mode data channel. It suppliessingle-point failure tolerance for all grades of all services. Channel unit redundancywithin each half of the dual system supplies a limited but very flexible degree offailure tolerance for all grades of all services before more serious failures force ahandover of mastery.(6) Figure 2-8 shows the LGA + LGA configuration. This configuration is capable ofproviding only one low-rate packet-mode data channel, and supplies single-pointfailure tolerance for that capability.(7) Figure 2-9 thru Figure 2-12 shows the different types of the pseudo-dual (HGA +LGA) + HGA configuration. This configuration contains all of the normal andfailure-tolerance capabilities as the HGA + HGA configuration, and adds thecapability of one low-rate packet-mode data channel in instances where both HGAsare unusable because of trying to point into keyholes. (The use of dissimilar dualHGAs, like those shown in Figure 2-7, helps to minimize the need for such aconfiguration.)

Cockpit Voice Configurations and Functionality(1) System configuration pins TP13F and TP13J specify the physical wiring for thecodecs of each SDU to the possible interfaces -- a codec/channel can only beavailable to the cockpit if the wiring strap is set to Cockpit or Both (and not if thewiring is to Cabin or Neither).(2) An additional issue with dual systems is how to map the potentially available fourphysical SDU cockpit voice channels with the one or two (maximum) usable logicalcockpit channels controllable through the audio control panels (ACPs) and theSCDUs (that is, as seen by the audio management system [AMS] user). Twoconfigurations are defined, which are identified by ORT item xlviii (Cockpit ChannelInterface Type for Dual): (1) interfacing each ACP/SCDU logical channel to onephysical channel on one SDU only (fixed), and (2) interfacing an ACP/SCDU logicalchannel to one physical channel on each of the two SDUs (shared). Note theinterfacing referred to is conceptual and not necessarily physical — that is, forshared, the physical wiring can be literally paralleled, or it can be simplepoint-to-point, with some form of signal splitting/combining or paralleling beingperformed within the AMS itself. The system configuration straps for codec wiring letthe SDU determine the physical channels which are candidate channels for eachlogical channel.

Do not copy without express permission of Honeywell.Page 3--1SECTION 3CABIN/COCKPIT COMMUNICATIONS1. Cabin CommunicationsA. General(1) Cabin communications are done with both digitally connected phones and analogconnected phones (see Figure 3-1). The user interface with digitally connectedphones is handled by the cabin communications system (CCS). The SDU hasprovisions to support up to two analog connected channels, one per installed codec.Each analog channel supports two interface types:•Global-Wulfsberg Flitephone WH--10•Analog Private Branch Exchange (APBX).B. Cabin Communications System(1) The CCS, in conjunction with the MCS avionics and a worldwide network of groundstations, supply cabin services like telephone, facsimile, and PC data interfaces. TheCCS is partitioned into two sections:•Cabin telecommunications unit (CTU)•Cabin/passenger communications equipment (digitally connected telephones).(2) The CTU performs on-board PABX telephone functions that let the digitallyconnected telephones make the best use of resources supplied by the MCS avionics.Other functions supplied by the CTU include signal processing (for example,analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog), dial tone generation, call queuing, calltransfer, call conferencing, and generating pacifier messages (like please hold, yourcall is being processed).(3) The CTU supplies the interface between the digitally connected phones and theSDU. The digital phones (handsets) are primarily supplied for passenger use andmay be located throughout the aircraft. The digital handsets interface indirectly to thesatellite communications equipment and they are controlled by the CCS. Each digitalhandset supplies all the normal functions of a domestic telephone. Some handsettypes are battery powered and can be used anywhere in the aircraft. When not inuse, handsets are stowed in a holster with a built-in battery charger for recharging thebatteries.

Do not copy without express permission of Honeywell.Page 3--2C. Analog Audio Channels(1) General(a) The SDU has provisions to support up to two analog channels. Each audiochannel supports two interface types:•Global-Wulfsberg Flitephone WH--10•Analog private branch exchange (APBX).(b) The WH--10 is a stand-alone handset with a 12-button keypad. The APBX CTUor handset has analog trunk lines and in-line DTMF signaling. The SDU cansupport both analog handsets being connected simultaneously.(c) Two in-use discrete outputs are supplied for analog channels 1 and 2. Thesediscretes are asserted (that is, turn on the call lamps) while the voice codecassociated with that analog channel is in use (off-hook) by the analog handset.(d) These interfaces can be connected to individual or up to five parallelaircraft-suitable handsets. The interface presented to the SDU must emulate asingle handset. The analog handsets, which can be located in the cabin orcockpit areas, supply only APC priority (priority 4) level service. This does notpreclude their use for other communications, but the SDU assigns an APCpriority to the call.(e) Figure 3-1 shows Audio Interfaces.

Buffering and sidetonearrangements are supplied by the analog connected phone, not by theSATCOM equipment.•If the voice codec is reserved by a headset user, is dedicated to a headset, oris failed, the analog phone user hears silence.•If the SDU is not logging-on, logged-on, or in the idle (standby) state, theanalog phone user hears silence.•If the call barring level is 2 (ORT item xxiv), the SDU performs action 1.•If sufficient resources are not available due to equipment failure, the SDUperforms action 2.•If the SDU is logging-on, the SDU performs action 3.•If the SDU is in the idle (standby) state, the SDU performs action 4.•If a SDU modem is not available or there is not sufficient power to sustain anew voice call, or the AES class is currently 1 or 4, the SDU performs action5.•Or else the SDU performs action 6 and the respective analog phone channelis deemed usable for placing a call.(b) If the system condition, as determined by the SDU, changes from usable (action6) to unusable while the analog phone is off-hook and a call is not in progress,then the appropriate handset action is performed to annunciate the newcondition. An analog channel does not change from unusable to usable while theanalog phone is off-hook unless there is a call termination on that channel.Table 3-1.

After this time, a # sign isautomatically appended to the end of the keyed sequence by the SDU, and thecommand given by the user is parsed and executed. Commands shown in thetable as not being terminated by a # sign are parsed and executed as soon asthe valid key sequence has been entered. An invalid sequence only generatesvoicemessage18(Commandrejected)whena#isappended, either by the useror by the SDU after the 15-second time-out (Table 3-5).(d) Codec-generated pacifiers or messages issued as a direct result of the userkeying a command start with one second of silence to allow the user enoughtime to bring the handset to their ear. During the playing of any codec-generatedmessages and pacifiers, receipt of the # key immediately mutes the codec,aborting the current message sequence. The voice codec plays the appropriatedial tone (normal or interrupted) as specified in Table 3-2.(e) An inactivity check is implemented so the SDU considers an off-hook channel tobe in the on-hook state if no call has been in progress on that channel and noDTMF digits have been received for at least 120 seconds, except whereindicated in Table 3-2. A WH--10 handset in this state must have its hookswitchcycled (that is, go on-hook, then off-hook) to signal the off-hook state to the SDU.

The four DDI CTid commands allow ddd to be up to three decimal digits (including leading zeros,such as, 02), validating the number to be within the range of 0 to 999. The incoming call managementcommands are specified as follows.**70# This command sets ORT item xlv for APHONE Channel 1 to the default value: noCTid assigned.**70ddd# This command sets ORT item xlv for APHONE Channel 1 to ddd, Nonexclusive,unless the configuration straps indicate Channel 1 is not wired for APHONE, or dddis already assigned as the CTid for Channel 2, or (in a dual system) ddd is alreadyassigned to one of the other SDU APHONE channels, in which case, the commandis rejected. Additionally, if ORT item xiii indicates ground-to-air Priority 4 calls aredisallowed, it is adjusted to specify routing to APHONE.**71ddd# This command sets ORT item xlv for APHONE Channel 1 to ddd, Exclusive, unlessthe configuration straps indicate Channel 1 is not wired for APHONE, or ddd isalready assigned as the CTid for Channel 2, or (in a dual system) ddd is alreadyassigned to one of the other SDU APHONE channels, in which case, the commandis rejected. Additionally, if ORT item xiii indicates ground-to-air Priority 4 calls aredisallowed, it is adjusted to specify routing to APHONE.

Memory number 0 is usedby the SDU to store the last called phone number.(3) Call Initiation from Analog (WH--10) Phone(a) The analog phone user can initiate a call using any of the following commands:•Short number manual dialing (dd...#). Between two and six digits can bespecified, with the first two digits not 00. The 00 digits are used as thecalled–party address.•Long number manual dialing (00dddd...#). Between seven and 18 digits canbe specified including the leading 00. The 00 digits are used as thecalled–party address.•Last call redial (*0). The last phone number called by an analog phone useron a channel is used as the called-party address. If the phone number storedin memory location 0 (i.e., last number called location) is not defined (lengthfield set to zero), then message 5 (phone number memory ... is empty.) isplayed. Otherwise, the phone number is used as the called-party address.•Stored phone dialing (*m). Parameter m specifies a memory location between1 and 9. If the phone number stored in memory location m is not defined(length field set to zero), then message 5 (phone number memory ... isempty.) is played. Otherwise, the phone number is used as the called-partyaddress.(4) Analog Private Branch Exchange (APBX) Interface(a) General1The APBX/SATCOM avionics interface protocol is based on the bidirectionalDTMF tones being signaled in-band. In the APBX-to-SATCOM direction, theDTMF digits are assigned to the on- and off-hook transitions as specified inTable 3-3, and are valid only from the APBX handset. All other DTMF digitsare common to both the WH--10 and APBX interfaces.
