Localizer Description
The antenna array of the ILS localizer transmitter is located on the extension of the centerline
of the instrument runway of an airfield, but is located far enough from the stop end of the runway to prevent it being a collision hazard. The localizer antenna radiates a field pattern
directed along the centerline of the runway towards the middle and outer markers. The
antenna also furnish information outside the front course area in the form of full fly-left or full
fly-right indications (CLEARANCE).
All localizer installations transmit a STATION IDENTIFICATION in morse code at periodic
intervals. This is a 1020 Hz tone that is keyed to form the basic station identifier.
The localizer is designed to provide a signal at a minimum distance of 25 miles within +/- 10
degrees, and at a minimum distance of 17 nautical miles between +/- 10 and +/- 35 degrees
from the front course line. (Refer to ICAO Annex 10 Chapter 3.1.3.3.1)
1.2
Product Type Numbers
The Normarc product numbering system is based on the following three levels:
• System
• Assembly
• Module
Systems have type numbers starting with NM, for example NM 7033. Systems consist of
assemblies, modules and parts.

TECHNICAL HANDBOOK
INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM
Assemblies have type numbers consisting of three letters, a three- or four- digit number and a
letter, for example LPA 1230A. LPA is an abbreviation of Localizer Power amplifier Assembly,
1230 is a running number, and the last letter is the variant designator. Assemblies can consist
of assemblies, modules and parts.
Modules have type numbers consisting of two letters, a three- or four- digit number and a letter, for example FD 1235A. FD is an abbreviation of Feedback Detector, 1235 is a running
number, and the last letter is the variant designator. Modules consist of parts.

The ILS cabinets can be configured for Cat I, Cat II, or Cat III requirements with no basic
changes.
Eight models are available:
NM 7011
Single frequency LLZ
NM 7012
Single frequency LLZ with hot standby monitoring (Cat III)
NM 7013
Two frequency LLZ
NM 7014

Single frequency GP
NM 7032
Single frequency GP with hot standby monitoring (Cat III)
NM 7033
Two frequency GP
NM 7034

The system is based on modern technology with extensive Remote Monitoring and Maintenance capabilities, and very high reliability and integrity. To meet this objective, the monitor
comparator and station control are based on digital hardware, while the RMS interface is
microprocessor based.
3.2
Physical Description
The cabinet contains three sections:
• The electronics card cage
• The change-over section
• The transmitter / PA section
The electronics card cage contains the RF oscillators, the LF signal generators, the monitors,
the station control, the RMS processor, and the voltage regulators.

TECHNICAL HANDBOOK
NORMARC 7011
INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM
The change-over section contains coaxial relays, attenuators and phasers for the RF outputs.
The transmitter / PA section contains the PA blocks including couplers etc. for each output.
The cabinet is divided in two parts, with the rear part fixed to a wall, and the front part hinged
to give access to interior of the cabinet.
All external connections are made to the rear part of the cabinet.
3.3
Monitors
The ILS has duplicated monitors with inputs for Course Line (CL), Displacement Sensitivity
(DS), Near Field (NF), and Clearance (CLR) (Dual Freq. only). The signals are detected by
the input stage, and then digitized. In the next block they are filtered by a Fast Fourier Transform performed by a signal processor. The results for each parameter is then compared with
stored limits in a digital hardware comparator.
Each of the two monitors consists of two modules. For Cat III use, Hot Standby monitoring can
be added by using one additional monitor and associated RF couplers and combiners.
The design of the monitors ensures a very high integrity due to the use of digital hardware for
the alarm comparators and a very simple Fast Fourier filtering with a signal processor. In addition, the monitor is checked by automatic self-tests.
The alarm limits are stored locally in EEPROM, and can be updated from the RMS processor,
with a separate hardware write protection to ensure that the integrity is not affected by the
RMS system.
3.4
Transmitters / Modulators
The transmitters are duplicated, either single frequency or dual frequency. Each transmitter
consists of a RF oscillator, a LF generator, and one or two PA blocks (single or dual frequency).
The RF oscillator uses a synthesizer for easy frequency changes and simple logistics. The
oscillator has two outputs for use in dual frequency systems.
The LF generator contains the generators for 90Hz, 150Hz and 1020Hz signals, the ident
keyer / sequencer and interface for DME master or slave keying. All signals are generated by
division from a common clock oscillator, ensuring very stable phase relations between the
modulation signals.
The modulation balance, modulation sum, RF level and Ident morse code are set in this module by means of multiplying digital to analog converters. The values are stored locally in
EPROM and can be updated from the RMS processor with hardware write protection.
The same LF generator is used for single and dual frequency systems.
3.5
TX Control
The TX control unit controls the system dependent on alarms from the monitors and inputs
from the local control, the remote control and, optionally, the RMS system. It also generate
status information to the same units. The local control and status indicators are a part of the

TX Control unit.
All functions in the TX Control are based on digital hardware to ensure the highest integrity.
3.6
Remote Monitoring (RMS) Unit
The RMS unit contains the system microprocessor. It handles storage and read-out of monitor
parameters, measurements for maintenance and fault finding, and performs fault analysis to
isolate faults to line replaceable modules. It is also used to set monitor limits and transmitter
adjustments.
The RMM handles communication to local and remote RMS computers, and in addition it handles a small display and keyboard for parameter setting and readout.
3.7
Remote Control Unit
The remote control unit is used in the tower or in the technical control room. It has indicators
for operating status as well as detailed warnings and an aural alarm device with reset. It can
control equipment on/off and change-over, and has an Access Grant-switch to allow remote
control from the RMS system.
The Remote Control Unit is connected to the ILS by one telephone pair cable.
3.8
Remote Slave Panel
The slave panel is connected to the remote control by a multipair wire. It is intended for use in
the control tower. It has indicators for normal / warning / alarm and has an aural alarm device.
in addition it can turn the equipment on and off, and has an aural alarm reset.
Optionally a slave panel with remote control functionality can be delivered.
3.9
Remote Maintenance Monitoring (RMM)
The NM7000 series has a built-in Remote Maintenance Monitoring system. This system consists of the RMS system, remote PC terminals with the RMM program installed, and the local
keyboard/display. Figure 3-2 illustrates the RMM/RMS systems

Figure 3-2 The NM 7000 series RMM/RMS systems.
The centre of the RMS system is a CPU with the RMS core program. The RMS collects measurements and diagnostic data, and makes them available to the user. The collected information allows easy and cost effective maintenance, fault finding and routine reporting. In
addition, system settings are distributed and parameter readings are collected via the RMS/
CPU.
External personal computers are used for a user-friendly interface to the RMM system. The
equipment has three serial output ports, typically used to connect a local PC, a PC in the airport technical equipment room, and a modem for connection to a central maintenance facility.

7.3.1
RF Phase Feedback Adjustment
Connect the oscilloscope to the BNC test connector labelled PHASE CORR. located on the
transmitter modules.
NOTE
Set the scope's input mode to DC.
The waveform observed should take a continuous form without limiting segments or deep
notches or other discontinuities.
(Each modulator develops it's own waveform shape due to spreads in insertion phases).
The dynamic maximum point should be adjusted to approximately -4 volt.
The average operating point of the PHASE CORR signal can be shifted by means of adjusting
potentiometer PH.OFFS. at the back of the LPA/GPA (See Figure 7-11).

A significant indication of correct LF phase is that the pair of the intermediate peaks are equal
in amplitude.

RF Power Balance Adjustment
Connect the oscilloscope to the BNC test connector labelled SBO located on the transmitter
modules.
NOTE:
Set the scope's input mode to DC.
DEMODULATION SBO: 1dB POWER
IMBALANCE (150Hz<90Hz)
DEMODULATION SBO: NORMAL
Figure 7-5 Power balance SBO illustration.
Perfect power balance between the 90 Hz modulated carrier and the 150 Hz modulated carrier is indicated when the two largest sets of peak waveforms fall on lines parallel to the baseline. A more accurate way of observing a power balance error is to double the sweep rate in
non-trigger mode such that the second 60 Hz half of the cycle is folded back on the first half
and tracks the envelope waveform.
RF Power Balance can be adjusted by potentiometer RF-BAL on the back of the LPA/GPA
(See Figure 7-11). Adjust until both halves fall on the same envelope waveform or the two
largest sets of peak waveforms fall on lines parallel to the baseline (See Figure 7-5).
7.3.5
RF Phase at Combiner I/P
Connect the oscilloscope to the BNC test connector labelled SBO located on the transmitter
modules.

Ident Tone Modulation Depth
7.3.8.1 Method 1
Connect the Field Test Set to the CSB BNC test connector in the Cabinet's Change-over section.
(Insert a 20 dB attenuator at the input of the Field Test Set in order to avoid overloading).
Set the Ident Control to CONTINUOUS from the RMM Program or the Local Display/Keyboard.
On the Field Test Set, press IDENT.
1020 Hz modulation depth can be adjusted from the RMM Program or the Local Display/Keyboard.
Adjust modulation depth to 10.0% +/-0.3%.
If VOICE modulation is implemented, the ident modulation depth should be set to 5.5% +/0.3% to avoid over modulation. Before this adjustment is done, follow the instructions in the
appendix VOICE GENERATOR. Make sure VOICE is turned off from the RMM program or the
Local Keyboard/Display when adjusting the modulation depth.
7.3.8.2 Method 2
An alternative method of checking 1020 Hz modulation depth to 10% is described below:
Connect the oscilloscope to the BNC test Connector labelled CSB.
Switch off the 90 Hz modulation and the 1020 Hz modulation.
Note the peak-to-peak deflection of the remaining 150 Hz waveform.
Then switch off the 150 Hz modulation and switch the 1020 Hz modulation to CONTINUOUS.
The observed 1020 Hz peak-to-peak waveform amplitude should be 50% of the 150 Hz amplitude providing the 1020 Hz modulation depth is 10% (or 1/2 of 150 Hz depth).

PART III DESCRIPTION
Functional Description
8.1
Introduction
The NM 7000-series Instrument Landing System is a fourth generation system featuring
extensive remote maintenance and monitoring features and systematic use of modern electronic components and processors.
Careful analysis has guided the partitioning of the system into analog hardware, digital hardware and software to meet the reliability and integrity objectives as well as easy maintenance
and low cost of ownership.
In the monitor, comparison between monitor measurements and stored monitor limits is performed by digital hardware. Thus safety critical software is avoided in those functions. The filtering functions are performed by a dedicated signal processor running a FFT algorithm, with
the signals sampled after base-band detection.
The transmitter/modulator uses a synthesizer as a RF source. In two-frequency systems a
common reference crystal is used, avoiding drift in difference frequency. The LF and ident frequencies and ident keying are generated by digital hardware, while the level setting and modulation control are performed by digitally controlled analog feedback loops.
Local and remote control, and change-over and shut-down functions are performed by digital
hardware.
Software is used for the remote maintenance and monitoring functions, including alarm and
parameter storage, diagnostic functions, transmitter adjustments and change of monitor limits.
Appropriate hardware protection is used to avoid that the software becomes safety critical.
Technology
Most of the modules in the NM 7000-series ILS are based on surface mount components on
multi-layer boards. This reduces the number of modules, and gives very good EMC/EMI performance. Most of the digital hardware is contained in field programmable gate arrays
(FPGA), giving very high reliability. The processors used are well proven Texas and Intel
types. In the RF stages, modern RF power FET transistors are used.

Figure 8-1 ILS Block Diagram
Each block is described separately in the following sections.
8.2
Transmitter
The transmitter section generates the ILS signal with the required RF power levels and modulations levels. The section comprises two identical transmitters, TX 1 and TX 2, where one is
connected to the antenna, while the other is connected to dummy loads, acting as a back-up.
The reference signals in the transmitter section are RF signals from the oscillator OS1221A
and LF modulation signals (90Hz and 150Hz) from the low frequency generator LF1223A. The
LF 1223A also generates the keyed 1020Hz signal for the Ident. System DC voltages comes
from the Power Supply board PS1227A.
In each transmitter, the RF oscillator has separate outputs for Course and Clearance. These
two channels are offset by 10 kHz. The LF Generator also has independent outputs for
Course and Clearance.
The LPA 1230 Localizer Power Amplifier Assembly contains modules to modulate, amplify
and combine signals into the required CSB and SBO signals. Amplitude- and RF phase feedback ensures correct RF power level and modulation.
The COA 1207B Change Over section has relays to connect the CSB and SBO outputs from
one transmitter to the antenna while the other is connected to dummy loads. The relays are
controlled by a Coax-control signal. SBO phase shifters and attenuators are incorporated for
obtaining the correct CSB/SBO relationship.
The block diagram is shown on the next page.

Monitor
The monitor section's main task is to generate alarms if the transmitters fail. The alarm signals
are interpreted by the station control section which decides whether to change transmitter or
to shut the ILS signals down. Warning information is treated by the RMS.
The input signals to the monitor are RF signals, CL, DS, NF, CLR(2 freq. only), from the
antenna system. In addition the DC loop detects failures in the antenna and an optional external frontend may monitor alarm generating parameters from additional equipment (i.e. a far
field monitor). The outputs are alarm status to the transmitter control section, parameter values to the RMS and DC loop reference voltages to the antenna system.
The monitor chain consists of the Monitor Frontend module, MF1211A in LLZ and MF1219A in
GP, and the Monitor module MO1212A. This chain is duplicated to increase reliability. In hot
standby configurations an additional chain monitors the standby transmitter. See the figure
below.
The Monitor Frontend module is mainly an AM receiver which detects the baseband signals
and generates DC voltages proportional to the RF level. In addition a digital pulse train is generated, to tell the difference in frequency (DF) between the COU and CLR transmitters in two
frequency configurations.
The Monitor module digitizes the analog signals, filters all data by FFT or mean value calcu©1999 Navia Aviation AS

Transmitter Control
The transmitter control sections main purpose is to control the transmitters on/off state. This is
done based on alarm inputs from the monitors, inputs from remote control, inputs from local
keyboard (front panel for station control) and inputs from the RMM system.
The station control receives alarm information from the monitors. Based on the alarm status
and the current mode of operation, the station control decides if a changeover/shutdown
should occur. The station control unit also receives user/state inputs from remote control
(example: Interlock) and the RMM system (example: Warning lamp outputs). Configuration

designed for hot standby configuration). See Figure 8-4.
The main functions of the TCA1218A/B are performed by the station control (SC) part of the
transmitter control (TC). The SC takes care of the normal operating tasks like turning transmitters on/off bases on various inputs that may affect the transmitter status. The SC also has a
RMS interface enabling the RMM system to read the status of the SC and to illuminate warning lamps etc.
The terminator (TRM) part of the TC takes over and shuts the ILS down if the SC is not able to
operate as expected. The TRM shut down the power to the transmitters approximately 1 second after an alarm situation or interlock state has occurred.

control are sent to both SC and TRM.
The local control displays the transmitter status of the ILS. It also provides a user interface,
enabling the user to perform basic operations on the ILS.
8.5
Remote control system
The remote control’s main purpose is to provide an interface to the ILS from the control tower,
or technical equipment room at the airport.
The remote control provides the ILS with user inputs and selections. The unit also displays the
status of the ILS using LEDs.
The remote control system consists of an UART/line interface, RC1241A, a front panel,
RF1242A/B (B is a front panel for hot standby configuration) and a slave panel.
The remote control assembly, RCA1240C/D, consists of the remote control (RC) module
RC1241A and the remote control front panel (RF) RF1242A/B (the B-version is a front panel
designed for hot standby configuration). See Figure 8-5.

INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM
The Remote Monitoring System consists of a CPU-board located inside the main cabinet, with
several means of collecting data from both inside and outside the equipment. The RMS also
constitutes the operator interface, offering up to three RS232 interfaces, and the Local Keyboard/Display. The main tasks are:
• Collection of executive monitor parameters and maintenance parameters
• Generation of system warnings
• Maintaining historical storages of all data.
• ‘Snap-shot’ of all monitor and maintenance data immediately before alarm occurrence.
• Setting of alarm limits and tx parameters.
• Fault isolation.
• Controlling the Local Keyboard/Display.
The RMS SW comprises a resident part located in the ILS. It communicates with the RMM PC
program via dedicated lines or a MODEM. The PC SW is the main operator interface with the
ILS.
Data collection is facilitated in 3 different ways: A parallel high speed data bus offering both
read and write operations, a IIC-standard serial bus, and a set of 24 different ADC channels.

Maintenance Data Collection
In order to facilitate fault isolation and presentation, several analog and digital measuring
points are distributed throughout the system. These point are primarily accessed via the IIC
serial bus. In addition, 24 ADC-channels are read directly into the RMA 1215A board.
The IIC serial bus collects digital status information from MF1211A, MO1212A, LF1223A,
OS1221A and the CI 1210A connection interface card. 6 of these are user configurable
inputs/outputs. In addition, analog measurements are obtained from the LLZ - Power Assemblies LPA1230A.
The ADC-channels are mainly used to measure power amplifier current consumption, as well
as system voltages. These measurements are obtained from the Power Supply boards
PS1227A. In addition system current consumption, as well as several user configurable
inputs, are measured on the CI1210A board.

INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM
The 27V is regulated down to ±15V, 8.5V and 5V. The transmitter power amplifiers are fed
directly from the 27V supply, while the rest of the system uses the regulated voltages.
Current measurements are done on the power supply, the battery and each power amplifier.
Each regulated voltage is measured in the Power Supply PS1227A. The results are presented
to the user through the RMS system.
When the ILS signals are shut down, the power supply to the power amplifiers are actually
turned off by relays. This is controlled by the terminator alarm signal from the station control
section.
The backup battery is protected against deep discharge with a protection circuit. This circuit
disconnects the battery when the voltage drops below 22V.
A battery warning is given through the RMS system when the primary power supply (supplies)
fails

Main Cabinet
The following paragraphs describe the electronics modules located in the main cabinet.
9.1.1
MF1211A Localizer Monitor Frontend
General Description:
The MF1211A module demodulates the ILS RF signals from the antenna system, and passes
baseband and RF level signals, and a digital pulse train representing the difference in frequency (DF) between the CL and CLR signals, to the monitor MO1212A (chapter 9.1.2). The
CLR channel and DF circuit are used in two frequency systems only.
Block Diagram:
See Figure 9-1.
Block Description:
The MF1211A module has four identical channels:
• DS - Displacement Sensitivity
• NF - Near Field
• CL - Course Line
• CLR - CLeaRence
In addition a mixer circuit extracts the difference frequency between CL RF and CLR RF, and
a maintenance monitor reports low level RF amplitude and modulation depth to the RMS.
CL_FILT
consists of a step attenuator and a bandpass filter covering the bandwidth 108.1 to 112 MHz.
The step attenuator can be set in the range 0 to 34 dB by setting jumper plugs enabling one or
more of three attenuators each providing 6dB, 12dB and 16 dB attenuation.
CL_RFAMP
splits the band limited RF signal to the baseband chain and the RF level chain. The baseband
amplifier stage comprises automatic gain control (AGC) through a pin diode attenuator.
CL_LEV
detects a DC voltage proportional to the RF input level, through a detector diode and a low
pass filter.
CL_BASEB
detects the baseband signals and generates the control voltage to the AGC stage of the
CL_RFAMP. When no RF signal is present, the AGC voltage is clamped to a preset level.

MO1212A Monitor
General Description:
The MO1212A module digital converts and processes NAV parameters, compares them with
programmable limits and reports alarm situations to the Station Control on TCA1218A (chapter 9.1.3) and the RMS.
Block Diagram:
See Figure 9-2.
Block Description:
LF_FRONT:
The analog signals from MF1211A Monitor Frontend are multiplexed and digitized, and the difference frequency (DF) pulse train is counted as a 12 bits value. These digital values are multiplexed into the FIFO along with the DC loop (DL_Detect[3:0]), External (Ext_Val[11:0]) and
test channels. The FIFO is seven words deep, and the sampling frequency is 640 Hz/channel.
Much of the functionality of LF-Front is handled by a FPGA NMP101A which is described in
chapter 9.1.2.1.
DSP_FILTER
performs all filtering in the Monitor. Data is read from the LF_FRONTEND FIFO, AC data are
FFT analyzed and for the DC data mean values are calculated. The calculated parameters are
written to the COMPARATOR. DSP_FILTER consists of a TMS320C31 DSP, a memory block
and a reset/watchdog circuit.
COMPARATOR
compares the parameters received from DSP_FILTER with the programmed upper and lower
alarm limits. Alarm data are passed on to the Station Control and Terminator (on TCA1218A,
chapter 9.1.3) on a dedicated bus. The COMPARATOR generates both instantaneous and
delayed alarms. The delayed signal is sent only if the alarm is still present after the programmed delay period. All parameters, alarm and warning data are passed on to the RMS via
an output FIFO (warning information is treated by the RMS). The alarm and warning limits and
delays are stored in the local EEPROM. Much of the functionality of COMPARATOR is handled by two FPGAs NMP102A and NMP103A described in chapter 9.1.2.2.
9.1.2.1 NMP101A Monitor Digital Frontend
General description:
NMP101A is a FPGA in the LF-FRONT block. It serves as an interface between the (digitized)
inputs from the monitor frontend MF1211A and the DSP_FILTER block. NMP101A is based
on the Actel ACT1020 FPGA. For electrical specifications see the ACT1020 datasheet.
Block diagram:
See Figure 9-2.
Block description:
REF COUNTER
divides the system clock (4.9152 MHz) for use in channel addressing. It also generates the
read/convert pulse to the external ADC.

TECHNICAL HANDBOOK
INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM
DIFF FREQ COUNTER
counts the pulse train that represents the frequency difference between the CL and CLR signals. It generates a 12 bits value which multiplied by 20 gives the true frequency difference.
MUX
selects between DF, one of sixteen channels from the ADC or one of the eight external channels in a roundabout manner to the FIFO.
FIFO
is a 7x17 bits first in first out queue with interface to the TMS320C31 DSP in the DSP_FILTER
block. The five most significant bits are channel address and the 12 least significant bits are
data. FIFO reports error to the COMPARATOR and data available (DAV) status to the DSP.
9.1.2.2 NMP102A / NMP103A Comparator
General description:
NMP102A and NMP103A are two FPGA's providing most of the functionality of the COMPARATOR block.
Block diagram:
See Figure 9-2.
Block description:
The block diagram shows both the NMP102A and NMP103A as a whole and blocks drawn
twice are found with the same functionality on both FPGA’s.
INPUT LATCH:
stores the parameter number and value coming from DSP_FILTER.
SEQUENCE CONTROLLER:
Controls the entire operation of reading alarm limits from the EEPROM, runs parity checks on
the alarm limit values, compares the parameter value from DSP_FILTER with upper and lower
alarm limits, reads and parity checks the alarm delay values and delays any alarms correspondingly.
COMP:
Compares the parameter value from DSP_FILTER with the alarm limits from EEPROM and
generates a raw alarm.
DELAY:
Delays the raw alarms corresponding to the delay values in the EEPROM.
FIFO CONTROL:
Writes data into the FIFO when the comparator cycle is finished.
EEPROM INTERF.:
Controls the interface towards the EEPROM. EEPROM write is only allowed if RMS_LEVEL1
is a logic '0' (RMS access level3).
RMS INTERF:

NORMARC 7011
INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM
Is the interface to the RMS. It controls interrupt when data is ready in the FIFO and generates
addresses for EEPROM programming and status and control signals.
PARITY CHECK:
Checks incoming data from the EEPROM. One bit error is corrected, and only a parity warning
is passed to the RMS. If two bits are erroneous, all output alarms are set, and a parity error is
passed to the RMS.
EEPROM:
The EEPROM is used to store the alarm limits. Warning limits used by the RMS are also
stored here.
FIFO:
The FIFO is used to streamline the data transfer to the RMS. One full set of 32 parameters is
written to the FIFO before the interrupt is activated.

General Description:
The TCA1218A transmitter control assembly consists of the transmitter control TC1216A and
Local Control (front panel) LC1217A.
Block Diagram:
See figure Figure 9-3 and Figure 9-4. All blocks except Local Control are located on
TC1216A.
Description of selected signals:
MON1 SC ALARM BUS :
Station control alarm bus from monitor MO1212A no.1. Consists of M1S_AL_ID[4:0],
~M1S_AL_RDY, M1S_AL, ~M1S_AL_N and M1S_AL_RAW.
MON2 SC ALARM BUS :
Station control alarm bus from monitor MO1212A no.2. Consists of M2S_AL_ID[4:0],
~M2S_AL_RDY, M2S_AL, ~M2S_AL_N and M2S_AL_RAW.
STB MON ALARM BUS :

and MSTBS_AL. Only used for hot standby configurations.
RMS BUS :
Interface to the RMS. Consists of IOD[7:0], IOCS, IOS[2:0].
MON1 TRM ALARM BUS :
Terminator alarm bus from monitor MO1212A no.1. Consists of M1T_AL_ID[4:0],
~M1T_AL_RDY, M1T_AL, ~M1T_AL_N and M1T_AL_RAW.
MON2 TRM ALARM BUS :

~M2T_AL_N and M2T_AL_RAW.
RC_BUS :
Interface to the line interface circuits for the remote control interface on CI1210A (ch 9.1.10).
Consists of SDIN, SDOUT, ~CD.
Block Description:
STATION CONTROL
interpret the alarm bus from the monitors MO1212A and generates alarm (and standby alarm
for hot standby configurations). These signals together with inputs from local controls (on
LC1217A), remote controls (via CI1210A), RMS inputs and configuration setup (in EEPROM
and jumper settings) determine the state/state change for the NM70xx transmitter state. Status information are generated and sent to local control panel (LC1217A) and remote control
panel (via CI1210A). The RMS can poll the state of the station control at any time. State
changes generates an interrupt signal to the RMS. STATION CONTROL can shut off the
transmitters LPA1230A by turning off the RF-oscillators OS1221A.

NORMARC 7011
TECHNICAL HANDBOOK
INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM
Most of the functionality of STATION CONTROL is handled by three FPGAs NMP104A,
NMP105A and NMP106A described in chapters 9.1.3.1 - 9.1.3.3.
TERMINATOR
interpret the alarm bus from the monitors MO1212A and generates alarm. This signal together
with local controls (on LC1217A, remote controls (via CI1210A), RMS inputs and configuration
setup (in EEPROM and jumper settings) determine the state of the terminator alarm
(TRM_AL) output. TERMINATOR has an extra 1s delay, so that the STATION CONTROL has
time to fulfill transmitter state changes before the terminator shuts the NM70xx down. Terminator alarm shuts the NM70xx down by disconnecting the power supply from the output stage
of the transmitters LPA1230A.
Most of the functionality of TERMINATOR is handled by FPGA NMP107A described in chapter 9.1.3.4.
REMOTE CONTROL IF:
This unit converts signals from the station control and terminator to serial messages (1 message is 2 bytes long). This is done continuously (approximately 10 messages/s). The serial
input from the remote control is converted to parallel format. Messages from the remote control are accepted only if two equal messages are received in sequence. If no valid message is
received within 2s, the remote control interface assert a failure signal to inform the station control and terminator that the link to the remote control is broken. Depending on the configuration setup, this will turn the NM70xx off.
CONFIG
Jumper plugs for configuration of the NM70xx.
DEBOUNCE
consists of debouncing circuitry for signals from switches on LC1217A and jumper plugs for
setting access levels for remote control.
LOCAL CONTROL
consist of keys, switches, switchlocks lamps and indicators located on LC1217A used to control and indicate operational status of the NM70xx.
9.1.3.1 NMP104A Station Control Monitor Data Detector
General Description:
NMP104A is a FPGA within the STATION CONTROL block. It serves as a monitor alarm/error
detection and monitor alarm voting unit. NMP104A is based on the Actel ACT1020 FPGA. For
electrical specifications see the ACT1020 datasheet.
Block Diagram:
See Figure 9-3 and Figure 9-4.

MON.1 ALARM & ERROR DETECTION
This block decodes the MON1 SC Alarm bus and generates alarm if the monitor MO1212A no
1 has set the alarm flag for any of the 32 parameters received in a set. Error checks includes
parameter identity sequence check, AL_N negated of AL, test channel alarm toggling and timeout for RDY-signal. Any alarm/error will set the monitor alarm output (M1_ALARM) for the

duration of next 32 parameters, meaning that 32 parameter without alarm/error must be
received in sequence before the alarm output is reset.
MON.2 ALARM & ERROR DETECTION
Same as for MON.1 ALARM & ERROR DETECTION, but for MON2 SC alarm bus.
VOTING
This block provides monitor alarm (VALARM) to the NMP105A depending on jumper configuration (1 of 2 or 2 of 2 voting) in the CONFIG block and inputs from the two MO 1212A monitors (not including standby monitor). When configured for 2 of 2 voting, both MO 1212A
monitors must give alarm to set the VALARM output. When configured for 1of 2 voting, alarm
from one of the two MO 1212A monitors is sufficient to set VALARM.
STB ALARM DETECTION
Alarm flag for any parameter sets the alarm immediately. The alarm will be reset when 32
parameters are received in sequence with no alarm flag set.
PUSHBUTTON ONESHOTS
To prevent locking up of push button keyboard signals, this block translates the input signals
from the switches on LC1217A from levels (high or low) to pulse stream.
9.1.3.2 NMP105A Station Control Event Detection
General Description:
NMP105A is a FPGA within the STATION CONTROL BLOCK. It serves as an event detection
and control unit. The NMP105A also includes the station control RMS-interface. The event
information is output to the station control state machine controller NMP106A. NMP105A is
based on the Actel ACT1020 FPGA. For electrical specifications see the ACT1020 datasheet.

EVENT DETECT
The event detect unit checks for valid events (for example key press, alarm interlock etc.), and
sends valid event number to the station control state machine controller NMP106A. Events
not valid for the current mode of operation are ignored. Events are given priorities with interlock as the highest priority. The alarm event has the next priority, while the other events are

polled one by one. The event detect unit also has a built in integrity check. This function works
when the ILS is in normal operational mode (automatic mode with transmitters on and no
alarm). When the ON/OFF is pressed, a FORCE_AL signal is output. This signal turns off all
transmitters (LPA1230A) without notifying the rest of the system. The loss of transmitted signal will be detected by the monitors (MO 1212) and cause monitor alarms to the STATION
CONTROL.This alarm will result in a TX changeover initiated by STATION CONTROL, but
since STBY TX is also turned off, monitor alarm will remain and cause TX shutdown after
alarm delay. This sequence ensures that the monitoring circuits and shutdown mechanisms
operates as intended. If the integrity check function should fail, a timeout function shuts the
ILS down.
INTERRUPT DETECT
This block detects transmitter state changes and stores the event causing the change. Transmitter feedback and coax relay position is also stored. An interrupt is generated to inform the
RMS that a transmitter state change has occurred.
TX 20 SEC DELAY
This function ensures that no transmitters are allowed to transmit for 20 seconds after an
alarm shutdown has occurred.
MAIN SELECT STORE
This block stores the information regarding which transmitter that is selected as main transmitter.
INTERLOCK DELAY
This block turns on the transmitters 20 seconds after the interlock signal from the REMOTE
CONTROL IF block has been deactivated.
9.1.3.3 NMP106A Station Control State Machine Control
General Description:
NMP106A is a FPGA within the STATION CONTROL block. It serves mainly as a state
machine controller (states are stored in an EPROM) for transmitter on/off control. NMP106A is
based on the Actel ACT1020 FPGA. For electrical specifications see the ACT1020 datasheet.
Block Diagram:
See Figure. 9-3
Block Description:
SEQUENCER
This block generates strobes and control signals for running the state machine. New states
are triggered based on received new data from NMP105A (on the STO_BUS). This block also
generates reset to the hardware watchdog safeguarding and controlling the station control
reset.
EVENT CHECK
This block checks event and main select signal received from NMP105A. Two identical event/
main select signals must be received in sequence before the event/main select is acted upon.

INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM
Used by the state machine for delays/timeouts for state changes.
DELAY
Delays the coax relay position feedback in state change sequences. Ensures that the coax
relay on COA1207A (Ch.9.1.6) will not change position while the transmitters are transmitting.
PARITY CHECK
This block check the parity of each byte read from the state machine content EPROM. Parity
failure results in transmitter shutdown.
LOCKUP DETECT
This block detects failures in the state machine sequence. It will trigger if the state machine
don’t become idle within a specified time. Failures results in transmitter shutdown.
EPROM READ DATA ADDRESS
This block is an address counter setting the address for the state machine EPROM during
reading through the RMS. The RMS can either reset or increment the address counter. The
feedback from these control strobes, address bit 0 and EPROM data byte are transferred to
the NMP105A for reading by the RMS.
TX ON/OFF CONTROL
This block controls the on/off state of the transmitters. Default is leaving the transmitters in the
state reported by their feedback signals, thereby providing no change in transmitter state.
However, if PARITY CHECK failure or event LOCKUPDETECT failure is detected, the transmitters are turned off.
LOCAL LAMP STATUS
Local panel lamp outputs to the LOCAL CONTROL BLOCK are provided based on coax relay
position, TX main select, transmitter status and station status received from NMP105A.
EPROM ADDR MUX
This block selects EPROM addressing either for STATE MACHINE or RMS read control.
9.1.3.4 NMP107A Terminator
General Description:
NMP107A is a FPGA providing most of the TERMINATOR function. The terminator function is
to provide a transmitter shutoff function if the STATION CONTROL should fail to do so.
NMP107A is based on the Actel ACT1020 FPGA. For electrical specifications see the
ACT1020 datasheet.
Block Diagram:
See Figure 9-3 and Figure 9-4.

write disable switchlock information from LOCAL CONTROL, access grant from REMOTE
CONTROL IF and access requests from the RMS.
EVENT DETECT
The event detect unit checks for valid events (for example on/off-key, alarm, interlock etc.),
and sends valid events to the terminator state check. Events not valid for the current mode of
operation are ignored.
TERMINATOR STATE CHECK
This block acts upon events/states received from the EVENT DETECT block. Alarm/interlock
states are allowed to be active for 1 second before terminator alarm is activated. The terminator alarm is then reset if an on/off-event is detected, thereby starting a new 1 second timeout.
The STATION CONTROL must now stabilize the ILS with no alarm within this 1-second period
of time if a TERMINATINATOR shutdown should be avoided. If terminator is triggered by
alarm or interlock while transmitters are transmitting, an interrupt is generated. The RMS can
then read the cause of the interrupt through the RMS BUS.
INTERLOCK FILTER
This block overrides the interlock signal in interlock override mode of operation. To enable
interlock override mode of operation the interlock override switchlock must be activated, the
local/remote switch must be in local position and the auto/manual switch must be in manual
position.
MON.1 ALARM & ERROR DETECTION
This unit decodes the MON1 TRM ALARM BUS and generates alarm if the monitor MO
1212A no. 1 has set the alarm flag for any of the 32 parameters received in a set. Error checks
includes parameter identity sequence check, AL_N negated of AL, test channel alarm toggling
and timeout for RDY-signal. Any alarm/error will set the monitor alarm output (M1ALARM) for
the duration of the next 32 parameters, meaning that 32 parameters without alarm/error must
be received before the alarm output is reset.
MON.2 ALARM & ERROR DETECTION
Same as for MON.1 ALARM & ERROR DETECTION but for MON2 TRM ALARM BUS.
VOTING
This block provides a monitor alarm (~VALARM) depending on jumper configuration (1 of 2 or
2 of 2 voting) in the CONFIG block and inputs from the two MO1212A monitors (not including

Block Description:
STB LAMP FILTER
This block provides the standby lamp information to be sent to remote control by the TX
UART.
TX UART
Converts parallel data to 2-bytes serial messages. Protocol for the serial data SDOUT (sent I
1210A) is start bit, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, odd parity.
RX UART
Converts serial data SDIN received from remote control (via CI 1210A) to parallel data (2
bytes).
MESSAGE DETECTOR
Messages from RX UART are accepted only if two identical messages are received in
sequence. If so, the data output latch is updated and a new-message pulse is generated.
NEW MESSAGE TIMER
Checks whether an OK message from MESSAGE DETECTOR and carrier detect signal from
CI 1210A is present. Missing message or no carrier detect for 2 seconds or more gives timeout signal to DATA FILTER.
DATA FILTER
In case the NEW MESSAGE TIMER has signalled a timeout (indicating missing messages)
this block will modify the data received from the MESSAGE DETECTOR by forcing the
TX_OFF signal to on (configurable). If configuration enables interlock, the interlock signal is
also forced active.

LF1223A Low Frequency Generator
General Description:
LF1223A provides the audio signals to be modulated onto the carrier signal in the transmitter
(AC 1226A). The levels of the 90Hz, 150Hz, RF level and ident signals and the morse code of
the ident signal are programmable from the RMS.
Block Diagram:
See chapter 9.1.6.
Block Description:
DIGITAL SECTION
The LF_DIG block provides the interface to the RMS, the parameter storage (EEPROM) and
the analog section. All sequencing and local parameter update is performed by this block.
Most of the functionality of the DIGITAL SECTION is handled by the NMP110A FPGA
described in chapter 9.1.4.1.
ANALOG SECTION.
All levels are controlled digitally through multiplying DACs (MDACs), and the AC levels are
stabilized through AGC amplifiers. The fine tuning of the phase between the 90 and 150Hz
signals is done manually with potentiometers. The morse code is keyed in an analog multiplexer, and can be synchronized with a DME.
RF level and ident (DC_IDENT), SDM and DDM (90/150Hz) are generated in the MDAC
chain. Multiplication (m) in the MDACs are 0≤m<1.
• The reference voltage is multiplied in the first MDAC to form the DC portion of DC_IDENT.
The keyed 1020Hz sine wave is multiplied in an other MDAC to control the ident amplitude,
this signal forms the IDENT portion of DC_IDENT signal.
• The DC portion of DC_IDENT is multiplied in the third MDAC to form the modulation sum
reference .
• This modulation sum reference is split in two signals where one is modified by a fourth
MDAC before they are combined again to form the modulation difference.

Block Description:
The RF signal is generated by a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) built around a Dual Gate
Mosfet Transistor, chosen because of its good noise properties, and the possibility to have an
isolated output at the drain.
A part of the signal is fed back, via a buffer for isolation, to a divide by 64, modulus 2 prescaler. This is connected to a MC145152-2, a phase locked loop circuit that performs the counting and control of the prescaler. The total count, and thereby the frequency, is set by inserting
shunts onto an array of pins.
The correct count for a desired frequency (FRQ) is found as follows:

21823-3.6
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
9-19
TECHNICAL HANDBOOK
NORMARC 7011
INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM
COUNT = FRQ / 5KHZ
In order to set the frequency on the OS1221, the count must be rounded off to the nearest
integer value and converted to a binary number.
Insert shunts for binary zeros on the pin arrays P2 or P102 (COU/CLR) starting with the most
significant bit on P2/102,A0 and the least significant bit on P2/102,N9. Be aware that most calculators discards leading zeros. Please find tables of jumper settings in Operating Manual
Appendix B.
The internal oscillator of the Course PLL is also used to control the Clearance PLL.
The differential output of the phase comparator is made single ended by a balanced amplifier.
A combined low-pass filter and integrator is built around an operational amplifier, that generates the control voltage for the RF oscillator. This control voltage is also fed to a window comparator that alarms the system via the I2C-bus if it falls outside its limits (another control of the
PLL is via the Lock Detect output of the PLL). The Lock Detect output of the PLL circuit is fed
to a low pass filter and a transistor. This output consists of narrow negative going pulses when
the loop is locked, and wide pulses of variable width when out of lock. Therefore the transistor
will be turned off when in lock, and on when out of lock.
The output from the transistor goes to two Schmidt triggers, one latching and one unlatching.
The latching Schmidt triggers turns the signal off if the loop goes out of lock and alarms the
I2C-bus. It is reset by power on and/or a low transition of the COU_OFF signal (CLR_OFF for
the clearance channel). The other Schmidt trigger is used to inform the system of the situation
that the loop have been out of lock, but is in lock at the present time even if the signal is turned
off (this might be the situation if a short drop in the 12V supply occurs, or a change in frequency setting has taken place).
The signal switching is done in two steps. The first is a diode switch and the next is a Dual
Gate Mosfet transistor that can be turned off by taking its control gate to a low potential. This
transistor acts as a buffer for the signal when in the on state. At the output of this transistor, a
second order bandpass filter follows, that serves as an output match of the transistor and to
filter out harmonics of the output voltage. The last stage is a 12dB gain block that delivers
10mW of power to the PC1225 card.
The Clearance channel is identical to the Course channel except for the crystal oscillator for
the PLL.

The LPA1230A receives RF signals and LF signals from the OS1221A Oscillator (Ch. 9.1.5)
and LF1223A low frequency generator (Ch. 9.1.4) respectively. The outputs from the
LPA1230A are carrier sideband (CSB) signal and sideband only (SBO) signal. Detected samples of the CSB and SBO signals and the phase feedback signal are available on the BNC
connectors on the front panel. Information about signals and status are interfaced with the
RMS.
Block Diagram:
See Figure 9-8 and Figure 9-9.
Block Description:
The PC1225A Phase Control receives the RF signal from the oscillator OS1221A and splits
this signal into two paths (90Hz and 150Hz branch). The RF phase regulator blocks ensure
correct phase relationship between the 90Hz and 150Hz modulated RF signals prior to combining them into CBS and SBO signals.
The AC1226A Amplitude Control provides and controls the required LF modulation signals
(90Hz and 150Hz) for the PA 1233A power amplifiers that keeps the output RF level and
amplitude modulation constant.
The PA1233A Power Amplifier modulates the incoming RF signal from PC1225A with a 90Hz
or a 150Hz LF signal to obtain an AM-signal and amplifies the modulated signals.
The FD1235A Feedback Detector provides feedback signals for amplitude and phase correction of the 90 and 150 Hz modulated RF signals.
The CD1237A Combiner Detector combines the 90 Hz modulated RF signal and the 150 Hz
modulated RF signal in such a way that true CSB and SBO RF signals are generated. In addition, detected and filtered CSB and SBO signals for measurement purposes are provided to
the test connectors on the front panel.
Detailed description about the individual modules are found below.
9.1.6.1 PA1233A Power Amplifier
General Description :
Power amplifier PA1233A is a three stage single-ended amplifier.
The first stage works as an AM-modulator. The modulation tone (90Hz or 150Hz) is fed to the
collector of a bipolar transistor. This modulation stage is operating in class C and has impedance matching network at both input and output. Nominal RF input level is approximate
20dBm.
Second stage consists of a 5W MOSFET-transistor operating in class B. The input impedance
network is matched to 50Ω, while the output impedance network is matched to the complex
conjugated impedance of the third stage transistor. This stage has a collector-to-gate feedback and a input shunt loading resistor at the transistor gate, to prevent unwanted oscillations
and keep the transistor unconditionally stable.
Third stage is a 45W MOSFET-transistor operating in class AB. Its output impedance network
consists of microstrip transmission lines and a variable capacitor to achieve maximum power
and efficiency. This stage has also feedback and shunt resistors to prevent unwanted oscillations. As gain control, both the second and third stage have potentiometers to set the operating point. A positive voltage regulator is used to keep a fixed input voltage to these gain

control circuits.
The lowpass filter at the output is a 9th order-filter, giving better than 65dB attenuation of all
harmonics and forward loss is less than 0.5dB. Filter input and output impedance are 50Ω.
9.1.6.2 AC1226A Amplitude control
General Description :
The main purpose of the AC1226A is to maintain a constant modulation and RF level for the
output signals from the PA 1233A power amplifiers. The RF level and modulation depths are
derived from three reference input signals coming from LF 1233A. A DC reference level sets
the RF level for both power amplifiers and one 90Hz and one 150Hz AC reference signal
determines the modulation depths of the 90Hz and 150Hz power amplifiers respectively. The
AC1226A also contains measurement circuits for the RMS.
ADJUSTMENTS:
The levels of the reference DC signal and the two reference AC signals are separately adjustable. In addition, the power balance between the two power amplifiers can be adjusted. The
goal of these adjustments is to compensate various tolerances inside the LPA1230A. Adjusted
correctly, any LPA1230A can be replaced by any other LPA1230A without any adjustments,
and still be within specified limits.
Any site or RF frequency dependent adjustments shall be made on the LF1223A module via
the RMS system.
FEEDBACK FUNCTION:
The 90 and 150 Hz LF signals from LF1233A are combined with the DC (ident) signal also
coming from LF1233A to form the desired RF envelope for each of the PA1233A. This envelope is compared with the envelope detected by FD1235A and the resulting signal is fed to the
PA1233A modulator. This process eliminates any ground offset between the LPA1230A and
the LF1223A generating the reference signals.
MAINTENANCE MEASUREMENTS:
Following measurements are reported to the RMS:
The 22-28V DC power supply for each PA1233A.
Detected CSB and SBO RF level.
Peak of the phase correction curve.
9.1.6.3 PC1225A Phase Control
General Description:
The RF carrier signal from OS1221A (Ch. 9.1.5) is split in two paths, one to be modulated with
150 Hz, and one to be modulated with 90 Hz. The first stage of each path is a phase regulator,
with a range of ±100 degrees. In the 90Hz path, the phase is set with a potentiometer for reference, in the 150Hz path the phase is controlled by a phase comparator. The phase comparator is a part of a negative feedback loop which ensures the correct phase relationship
between the 90Hz and 150Hz modulated RF signals from the PA1233A power amplifiers prior
to combining them into CBS and SBO. Each of the phase regulators is followed by a buffer
amplifier, a 15dB gain block and a output stage.
The RF level at the output is fed back in an automatic gain control feedback loop ensuring
constant output level of 20dBm.

9.1.6.4 FD1235A Feedback Detector
General Description:
The function of FD1235A is to provide feedback signals for amplitude and phase correction of
the 90 and 150 Hz modulated RF signals. Two dual directional couplers sample the main RF
signal from the 90 Hz and the 150 Hz modulated power amplifiers, respectively. One half of
each dual coupler is used for amplitude control, while the other half is used for phase control.
For AMPLITUDE control, the sampled RF signal is detected by a diode that is slightly forward
biased for linearity, bias being provided by another diode. The detector time constant is short;
the detected signal consist of a positive voltage proportional to the RF carrier level and an LF
voltage proportional to the modulation. When this output is fed back to the power amplifiers
via the Amplitude Control board, RF power and modulation depth will be held constant, and
distortion will be practically eliminated. A low-pass filter is inserted between the detector diode
and the coupled lines to prohibit RF harmonics generated by the detector to couple back onto
the main RF line. Coupler directivity is much improved by very small capacitances connected
across the lines.
For PHASE control, a 90 degree 3 dB hybrid is used as a phase discriminator. Such a device
has the property that the resulting amplitude at its outputs depend upon the phase difference
at its inputs. Here, the two sampled RF signals, which have equal amplitudes, are applied to
the hybrid inputs. The two output signals from the hybrid are rectified, giving positive output
voltages with some LF components. Normally, these two voltages will be equal. Any shift in
RF input phase will make these voltages unequal. When these output voltages are fed back to
the Phase Control board, the phase relations at the input will be held constant. For equal magnitude at the outputs of the 90 degree 3 dB hybrid, the phase difference at the hybrid inputs
must be zero. Proper phasing initially is here obtained by the insertion of a delay line in the
150 Hz modulated path. The main RF input signals applied to the couplers are already 90
degrees out of phase here, with the 90 Hz modulated signal lagging. Therefore, the additional
delay line between the 150 Hz coupler and the hybrid will provide the missing 90 degree delay
for zero phase difference at the hybrid inputs. A small trimming capacitor is included to facilitate an offset to compensate for eventual minor phase errors in the remaining RF circuitry outside the phase feedback loop. Adjustment can therefore only be done properly with the whole
transmitter module working. This trimmer is the only adjustable component on this board. All
diodes used on this board are matched pairs for temperature stability reasons.
The RF power output from this board is fed through a pair of 50 Ohm coaxial connections
inside the housing directly to the Combiner board CD1237A, the connections being disconnectable to facilitate removal for repair. Inserted in a properly adjusted transmitter module, the
90 and 150 Hz modulated output (and input) power signals of the Feedback Detector board
will have equal amplitudes with the 90 Hz path lagging the 150 Hz path by 90 degrees (except
for eventual offset), and this condition will be held constant by the feedback loops.
9.1.6.5 CD1237A Combiner Detector
General Description:
The function of CD1237A is to combine the 90 Hz modulated RF signal and the 150 Hz modulated RF signal from FD1235A to form the CSB and SBO RF signals to be transmitted. In
addition, detected and filtered CSB and SBO signals for measurement purposes are provided
to BNC test connectors on the front panel.
The 90 Hz and 150 Hz modulated RF input signals are of equal amplitude in phase quadrature, with the 90 Hz signal lagging. A 90 degree 3 dB hybrid is used as a combiner. When two
RF signals of equal frequency and amplitude but with 90 degrees phase difference are applied

TECHNICAL HANDBOOK
NORMARC 7011
INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM
to the two input ports of such a hybrid, the signals will add in phase at one output port but will
be in reverse phase and cancel each other at the other port. This is the situation for the carrier
frequency, resulting in twice the input power at the CSB port and no power at the SBO port.
However, the sideband frequencies at the two inputs are not identical. The power of each
sideband frequency will therefore be split equally between the two outputs. The resulting
depth of modulation at the CSB output will be one half relative to the input value. At the SBO
output, the two sidebands will be in reverse phase at the instant when the LF components are
in phase. Thus true CSB and SBO signals are generated at the outputs.
A pair of directional couplers sample the CSB and SBO RF output signals for measurement
purposes. The RF samples are detected by matched diodes that are slightly forward biased.
Detector filters have short time constant to preserve the LF envelopes. A low-pass filter is
inserted between each detector diode and the coupled lines to prohibit RF harmonics generated by the detector to couple back onto the main RF line. Coupler directivity is much
improved by very small capacitors connected across the lines.

CPU
The CPU is an 80C188EB micro controller with address decoding unit and two UARTs. Only
one of these UARTs is utilized for serial communication. The other has been mapped as a parallel IO port. The operating frequency of the CPU is 20 MHz provided by an external 40 MHz
oscillator.
WATCHDOG AND BATTERY
A watchdog resets the CPU at power up and if the CPU does not toggle the watchdog reset bit
within app. 1.6 sec. intervals, or if the +5V supply voltage goes below the battery voltage. In
the latter case battery voltage will be connected to the RAM and RTC. Removal of the battery
or jumper P2 will cause the RESET line to go low and inhibit any function on the module. If a
battery is not available, function can be achieved by shorting the battery socket.The battery
can be disconnected by removing jumper P2 when the module is being stored.The battery
voltage is measured using an opto coupler switch in order not to discharge the battery. The
battery provides approximately one month memory retention at continuous use (system power
turned off).
INTERRUPT CIRCUITRY
The interrupt circuitry combines several interrupts into the 5 interrupt inputs of the CPU.
DISPLAY
The display used is a 20 characters by 4 lines LCD.

MESSAGE DETECTOR
Messages are accepted only if two equal messages are received in sequence. If so, the data
output is updated and a new-message pulse is asserted.
NEW MESSAGE TIMER
Checks that an OK message and carrier detect is present. Missing message or no carrier
detect for 2 seconds or more gives timeout.
LED & BUZZER FILTER
Data from the ILS cabinet is filtered according to the following descriptions :
• Missing data from ILS sets an alarm condition (Alarm LED on, all other off).
• Activating SILENCE-key turns on all LED’s (lamptest).
• Interlock turns off all LEDs.
Buzzers are activated at transitions from normal to alarm. Lamptest always activates buzzers.
Pressing SILENCE-key deactivates the local buzzer. The remote control SILENCE-key may
deactivate the slave panel buzzer, while SILENCE from the slave panel may deactivate the
local buzzer (both separately configurable).
