An active interlock for a station shall prevent transmission of ILS signals. The inter-lock signal is connected to the remote control RC1241 and transmitted to the ILS through the remote control connection.The interlock function on the ILS is enabled/disabled from configuration settings on the TC1216A. The rest of this chapter describes an ILS configured for interlock.When an active ILS receives an active interlock signal, the ILS performs a shutdown. If the interlock signal is deactivated, the ILS will automatically be turned on after a 20 second delay period.For maintenance purposes, an interlock override function has been implemented. This func-tion makes it possible to operate the ILS locally in manual mode with an active interlock sig-nal. To activate the interlock override function the following conditions must be met:• LOCAL/REMOTE switch must be in LOCAL position,• AUTO/MANUAL switch must be in MANUAL position and• INTERLOCK OVERRIDE switchlock must be set in horizontal position.

This version can be used to con-nect to ILS cabinets with version 5 up to and including version 12 of the RMS software.5.1 IntroductionThis paragraph gives a brief description of this user manual, the program and the system requirements.5.1.1 DescriptionThis manual describes how to use the NM70xx remote monitoring software. The remote mon-itoring software consists of software running in the ILS rack and on software running on IBM/PC’s and compatibles. The purpose of the system is to retrieve status and measurements from the ILS rack and to change ILS operation and parameters from a remote site. The retrieved data can be displayed and further processed by programs on the PC. For example, the ILS data can be• Displayed on the screen.• Saved on disk for later use.• Exported to other programs for graphical display of parameter variations.5.1.2 Available versionsThe NM7000 RMM program is available in a DOS version and a 32 bit version for Windows 95/NT. Both versions are distributed together. Depending on the operating system installed on the PC, the user must install one of these versions.5.1.3 System requirementsThe PC running the DOS version of the software must be equipped with:• 386DX33 based computer• DOS 3.0 or later• a hard disk• 4 Mbyte RAM• HIMEM installed• a RS-232 serial port connected to a Hayes compatible 2400 baud modem• a printer port & printer, if printouts are desiredFor Windows 95 and NT the following are acceptable minimum configurations:95: 486x33 and 8 MB RAMNT: Minimum 486x66 and 16-20 MB RAMA recommended configuration for running the DOS version includes the following:• a 486 based computer or better• a mathematical co-processor (486DX internal is satisfactory)• a VGA monitor• DOS 6.0 or later• I/O board with 16550 UART

The DOS version can, of course, be started on a PC with Windows 3.xx installed as long as Windows is not also started.If the RMM-software is running on a slow PC with Windows 95 or NT, avoid to start up several other applications. This to ensure sufficient processor-time is available for data processing in the NM 7000 RMM.5.1.5 How to use this manualThe user interface of the RMM software is very similar to the one used in Microsoft Windows. If you are familiar with using Windows programs, you will easily understand how to operate this program, and you can skip Chapter 5.2. The next chapters describe each feature of the program. You may want to read these chapters to learn how use the RMM software. 5.1.6 Starting the RMM softwareTo install the RMM PC Software, create a directory named NM7000 on the hard disk. Then copy the contents of the NMS152A (DOS) or NMS152B (Win95/NT) RMM PC SW floppy to this directory.To start the program, make the RMM system directory your current directory. Then start NM7000.EXE (DOS) or NM7000.BAT (Win95/NT).If you are not familiar with DOS commands, the above steps can be performed with the follow-ing commands: CD\NM7000↵NM7000↵5.2 User interface componentsThere are three visible components to the RMM software: the menu bar at the top, the window area in the middle and the status line at the bottom of the screen. The next few sections describe these components, and the information that they display.5.2.1 The menu bar and menus The menu bar is your primary access to all the menu commands. The menu bar is always vis-ible. If a menu command is followed by an ellipsis (...) choosing the command displays a dia-log box. If the command does not have an ellipsis, the action occurs when you choose the command. Here is how to choose menu commands using the keyboard:1. Press F10. This makes the menu bar active; the next thing you type will relate to the items in the menu bar.
1DYLD$YLDWLRQ$6  5HPRWH0DLQWHQDQFHDQG0RQLWRULQJ23(5$7,1*0$18$/1250$5&2. Use the arrow keys to select the menu you want to display. Then press Enter.As a shortcut for this step, you can just press the highlighted letter of the menu title. For example, when the menu bar is active, press F to move to and display the File menu. At any time, press Alt and the highlighted letter (such as Alt+F) to display the menu you want.3. Use the arrow keys again to select a command from the menu you have opened. Then press Enter. At this point, the ILS Data Sampler either carries out the command, displays a dialog box, or displays another menu.There are two ways to choose commands with a mouse:• Click the desired menu title to display the menu and click the desired command.• Or, drag straight from the menu title down to the menu command. Release the mouse but-ton on the command you want. (If you change your mind, just drag off the menu; no com-mand will be chosen.)Note that some menu commands are unavailable when it would make no sense to choose them. However, you can always get on-line Help about currently unavailable commands.5.3 ShortcutsThe software offers a number of quick ways to choose menu commands. The click-drag method for mouse users is an example. From the keyboard, you can use a number of key-board shortcuts (or hot keys) to access the menu bar, choose commands, or work within dia-log boxes. You need to hold down Alt while pressing the highlighted letter when moving from an input box to a group of buttons or boxes. Here is a list of the shortcuts available:Table 5-1 Shortcut commands.For example, to display a previously saved log, press Alt+F D (for File |Display log) or you can just press F3, the shortcut displayed next to it.5.3.1 The desktop areaMost of what you see and do in the ILS Data Sampler environment happens in a window. A window is a screen area that you can open, move, resize, zoom, tile, and overlap. Every win-dow is positioned on the desktop, the area between the menu bar and the status line.You can have many windows open at the same time, but only one window can be active at any time. Any command you choose or text you type generally applies only to the active win-dow. You can spot the active window easily: It is the one with the double-lined border around it. The active window usually has a close box, a zoom box, and scroll bars. If your windows are overlapping, the active window is always the one on top of all the others.There are several types of windows, and they may have all or some of the following character-Do this To accomplish this...Press Alt plus the highlighted letter of the command (just press the highlighted letter in a dialog box). Display the menu or carry out the command.Type the keystrokes next to a menu command. Carry out the command.

This icon is normally chang-ing, indicating that new data is received from the ILS station.The close box of a window is the box in the upper left corner. Click this box to quickly close the window. (Or choose Window | Close, with shortcut Alt+F3). The Help window is considered temporary; you can also close it by pressing Esc.The title bar, the topmost horizontal bar of a window, contains the name of the window. Dou-ble-clicking the title bar zoom the window. You can also drag the title bar to move the window around.The zoom box of a window appears in the upper right corner. If the icon is an up arrow, you may click the arrow to enlarge the window to the largest size possible. If the icon is a double headed arrow, the window is already at its maximum size. In that case, clicking it returns the window to its previous size. To zoom a window from the keyboard, choose Window | Zoom, with shortcut F5).Shortcut: Double-click the title bar of a window to zoom or restore it.5.3.1.1 Scrolling the contents of a windowScroll bars are horizontal or vertical bars with an arrow in each end, and a box between these. You use the scroll bars with a mouse to scroll the contents of an ILS parameter display win-dow. Click the arrow at either end to scroll one line at a time. (Keep the mouse button pressed to scroll continuously.) You can click the shaded area to either side of the scroll box to scroll a page at a time. Finally, you can drag the scroll box to any spot on the bar to quickly move to a place in the window relative to the position of the scroll box.5.3.1.2 Resizing a windowYou can resize a window by dragging the resize corner (the bottom, right corner) of the win-dow. The resize corner is displayed as single outline part of the window frame. To resize using the keyboard, choose Size/Move from the Window menu. Pressing the arrow keys will then move the window, and Shift+arrow keys resizes the window. Note that resizing only applies to windows which has a resize corner. 5.3.1.3 Quick window managementThe next table gives you a quick run-down of how to handle windows in the ILS Data Sampler. Note that you don't need a mouse to perform these actions - a keyboard works just fine.Every window that displays ILS parameters has a small control window. This control window is placed at the upper left corner of the desktop when you choose to display a log file, or con-nect to an ILS station.

It• reminds you of basic keystrokes and shortcuts (or hot keys) applicable at that moment in the active window.• lets you click the shortcuts to carry out the action instead of choosing the command from the menu or pressing the shortcut keystroke.• offers one-line hints on any selected menu command and dialog box items.• tells you how much memory is currently availableThe status line changes as you switch windows or activities. One of the most common status lines is the one you see when you are browsing a log file, or logging data. When you've selected a menu title or command, the status line changes to display a one-line summary of the function of the selected item.5.3.3 Dialog boxesA menu command with an ellipsis (...) after it leads to a dialog box. Dialog boxes offer a con-venient way to view and set multiple options. When you are making settings in dialog boxes, you work with five basic types of on screen controls: Action buttons, radio buttons, check boxes, input boxes, and list boxes. Here is a sample dialog box that illustrates some of these items:To accomplish this: Use one of these methodsOpen and display a saved log file Choose File | Display log.Close a window Select the window, and press Alt+F3.Hang up phone and close data window Select the corresponding control window, and press Alt+F3.Move the active window Drag its title bar. Or choose Window | Size/Move and use the arrow keys to place the window where you want it, then press Enter.Resize the active window Drag the bottom right corner.

If you choose OK, the choices in the dialog box are accepted; if you choose Cancel, nothing changes and no action takes place, and the dialog box is put away. You can press F1 to open a Help window for this dialog box. Esc is always a keyboard shortcut for Cancel (even if no Cancel button appears).If you are using a mouse, click the dialog box button you want. When you are using the key-board, press Alt and the highlighted letter of an item to activate it. For example, ALT+O selects OK because the O in OK is highlighted. Press Tab or Shift+Tab to move forward or back from one item to another in a dialog box. Each element is highlighted when it becomes active.In this dialog box, OK is the default button, which means you need only press Enter to choose that button. (On monochrome systems, arrows indicate the default; on color monitors, default buttons are highlighted.) Be aware that tabbing to a button makes that button the default. You can then press Space to choose that button.5.3.3.2 Radio buttons and check boxesRadio buttons are like car radio buttons. They come in groups, and only one radio button in the group can be on at any one time. To choose a radio button, click it or its text. From the keyboard, select Alt and press the highlighted letter (if any), or press Tab until the group is highlighted and then use the arrow keys to choose a particular radio button. Press Tab or Shift+Tab again to leave the group with the new radio button chosen.Check boxes differ from radio buttons in that you can have any number of check boxes checked at any time. When you select a check box, an x appears in it to show you it’s on. An empty box indicates it’s off. To change the status of a check box, click it or its text, press Tab until the check box is highlighted and then press Spacebar, or select Alt and the highlighted letter (if any).If several check boxes apply to a topic, they appear as a group. In that case, tabbing moves to the group. Once the group is selected, use the arrow keys to select the item you want, and then press Spacebar to check or uncheck it. On monochrome monitors, the active check box or group of check boxes will have a chevron symbol (>>) to the left and right. When you press Tab, the chevrons move to the next group of check boxes or radio buttons.

They are similar to Radio buttons (chapter 5.3.3.2); except that only the selected setting is displayed. You select other settings by clicking on the text showing the toggle setting, or by pressing the space bar. 5.3.3.4 Input and list boxesInput boxes let you type in text. Most basic text-editing keys work in the text box (for example, arrow keys, Home, End, and Ins). If you continue to type once you reach the end of the box, the contents automatically scroll. If there is more text than what shows in the box, arrowheads appear at the end. You can click the arrowheads to scroll or drag the text.If an input box has a down-arrow icon to its right, there is an associated history list. Click the down arrow icon, or press the down arrow key to display the list. You will find text you typed the last few times you used the input box. Press Enter to choose an item from this list. You can also edit an item in the history list. Press Esc to exit from the history list without making a selection.A final component of many dialog boxes is a list box, which lets you scroll through and select from variable-length lists (often file names) without leaving a dialog box. If a blinking cursor appears in the list box and you know what you are looking for, you can type the word (or the first few letters of the word) and the ILS Data Sampler will search for it.You make a list box active by clicking it or by choosing the highlighted letter of the list title (or press Tab until it’s highlighted). Once a list box is displayed, you can use the scroll box to move through the list or press the arrow keys on the keyboard.5.4 Configuring the RMM systemThis chapter describes how to configure the RMM system. The configuration settings covered in this chapter does not affect the operation of remote ILS systems in any manner. It applies to the “PC part” of the system only.The configuration dialogs is accessed via the Options menu. The following sub-chapters cov-ers each of the menu items on this menu.5.4.1 Communications setupThe software allows you to connect the modems to two of four communications ports; COM1 - COM4, with configurable IRQ's for COM3 and COM4. The ILS station may also be connected directly to the PC by the use of a null modem cable. The communication with the ILS is done with the use of a Channel construct. In the station setup for an ILS station one selects a Channel in which the communication with the remote ILS shall flow. Each channel is then associated with a specific set of configurable communica-tion settings. Choosing Communications setup brings up the following dialog

The algorithms are the Current data diagnostics and the Alarm Event diagnostics. See chapter 7 for a thor-ough description of these alghorithms.5.24.2 Current data diagnosticsThis diagnostic function are invoked by selecting ILS|Current data diagnostics. Based upon the current status of the equipment, the program will suggest the faulty module, if any.5.24.3 Alarm Event diagnosticsThis diagnostic function are invoked from the Event list window. A CHANGEOVER or SHUT-DOWN event must be selected in the event list, then may the diagnostic function be invoked by pressing the Event diagnostics button below the event list. Based upon the nature of the CHANGEOVER or SHUTDOWN event, combined with the contents of the corresponding alarm storage, the program will suggest the faulty module which originated the alarm. Note that the event storage diagnostics function will only be able to isolate faults to module level when a single fault has occurred5.25 Exporting dataYou can export stored measurements to a spreadsheet with the function described in this sec-tion. Exported data will be stored in an ASCII text file. This text file may then be imported into a spreadsheet program or a graphical presentation program.Data from all types of log files may be exported. The Export data function is located on the file menu. In order to use the function, you must first open the log file from which you want to export data. This is done by using the File|Open log function (described in chapter 5.22). When a log file has been opened you may select the Export data function. The dialog shown in Figure 5-58 will appear. Select the type of data to export and press OK. You will be prompted to enter a file name for the exported data. The Decimal point field selects the type decimal point character used when stored data are exported to a text file. Select the proper setting for use by your spreadsheet program or graph-ical presentation program.

The diagnose is here based on live data received from an con-nected ILS rack or based on historical data sets (snap shots) of measurements previously stored to disk.2. “Alarm event diagnostics”. This diagnostics function attempts to report the cause of a trans-mitter changeover or a changeover/shutdown situation. The diagnose is based on a partic-ular alarm event in the event list and the corresponding measurements in an alarm storage that will be downloaded from the rack.The diagnostic tests are based on passive reading of various measurement points inside the NM70XX cabinet and the data from the executive monitors. No special signals need to be injected for the algorithms to work (although the transmitters must be turned on).The operator needs to be logged in at access level 1 to perform a Current data diagnostics and an Alarm event diagnostics. Since only access level 1 is required, the diagnostics tests can therefore be performed locally or from a remote location using a modem connection. 7.2.2 Current data diagnosticsThe Current data diagnostics is invoked by selecting the ILS | Current data diagnostics menu item in the RMM software.There are two typical cases in which the current data diagnostics function may be used:1. On an operative ILS system, on which a warning situation is indicated. In this case the cur-rent data diagnostics can be used to quickly find the cause of the warning without taking the system out of service.2. In manual mode after a transmitter changeover or shutdown situation (monitor alarm). The system can then be set to transmit on air, and the current data diagnostics used to locate the module that is causing the monitor alarms.For detailed information about the algorithms used in the automatic Current data diagnostics, refer to section 7.4.3.7.2.3 Alarm event diagnosticsThe RMS subsystem in the NORMARC 7000 cabinet continuously reads data sets from mon-itor 1, 2 and the standby monitor. The last 30 seconds of data are stored in an internal ring buffer. This buffer is partitioned in groups with different sampling periods:• For the last 2 seconds, 10 data sets are stored each second for monitor 1 and 2. Standby
23(5$7,1*0$18$/1250$5&&RUUHFWLYHPDLQWHQDQFH 1DYLD$YLDWLRQ$6monitor data sets are stored at ¼ of this frequency.• For the last 10 seconds, one data set is stored each second.• For the last 30 seconds, monitor 1, 2, standby and maintenance data are stored every 5th second.When a changeover or shutdown alarm occurs the RMS does the following:1. Stores the ring buffer with the last 30 seconds of monitor and maintenance data from before the alarm in an internal alarm storage buffer. This buffer resides in non-volatile RAM. 2. Places an changeover or shutdown alarm event in the event list. This event includes alarm state information for each monitor-channel. This information is used by the RMM software for diagnosing the alarm event.The RMS keeps the seven most recent alarm storage buffers. A changeover-only situation fills one alarm storage buffer, while a changeover with subsequent shutdown situation uses two alarm storage buffers. No alarm storage buffers will be saved if the equipment is in service mode when the alarm occurs. (Service mode is activated by any of the following switches: Local, Manual, Write Pro-tect disable, Interlock Override and the Access Grant enable switch on the Remote Control.)The data in the buffers can be downloaded by the RMM software when a user initiates an alarm event diagnostics (if the data is not already downloaded), and used in the diagnostic algorithms described in the following sections.The operator initiates an alarm event diagnostics by first selecting a changeover or shutdown alarm in the Event List and then selects the “Event diagnostics” button. Once the alarm storage has been downloaded it is also possible to display the individual sam-ples. This method can be used, in addition to the automatic diagnostic function, to find the cause of changeover or shutdown alarms. For information on how to download and display historical data see Chapter 5 in the Operating Manual.For detailed information about the algorithms used in the automatic Alarm event diagnostics, refer to section 7.4.4.7.2.4 Manual fault diagnosisShould the automatic diagnostic functions fail or give misleading results, manual diagnosis using external measurement equipment can be performed. 7.3 LRU change procedures7.3.1 Replacing unitsWhen replacing any faulty module(s), please follow this procedure: • Make sure the ILS configuration file from the last flight check is available if one of the fol-lowing boards need to be replaced: MO1212, LF1223, or RMA1215. • Make a print report of the monitor and maintenance values to document what the key parameters were before the faulty module(s) was/were changed.• Power down the system.

All diagnostic solutions detected are recorded and presented to the opera-tor. If a diagnostic solution is found to be the result of more than one test, the solution that is the result of most tests will be listed first.7.4.3.1 I2C read error on any board implies a failure on that boardIf a board is reported with “ERROR” status there is probably a fault on this board. “ERROR” indicates that the RMS does not detect valid I2C-bus acknowledge signals from the board when attempting to read its maintenance data. All boards, except the TX Control board, in the NM70XX cabinet have an I2C-interface to the RMS board.Note: If all boards are indicated with “ERROR” status, the problem may be a faulty I2C inter-face on the RMS board, or any of the boards may have a “stuck-at” error on the I2C bus sig-nals. 7.4.3.2 Maintenance parameter warnings7.4.3.2.1 External power supply testsDIAGNOSTIC ALGORITHM:If there is a maintenance warning indication on the external power module, there is a problem with the 27V power supply, the battery chargers or the system is on battery operation.7.4.3.2.2 Power supply 1 and 2 testsDIAGNOSTIC ALGORITHM:1. If there is a maintenance warning indication on power supply 1 and not on power supply 2, or vice versa, the is a fault on the power supply which has the warning.2.

(A fault on the OS and LF may cause a warning on the PA.)7.4.3.2.5 Monitor 1 and 2 frontend testsDIAGNOSTIC ALGORITHM:Warning on monitor frontend 1 implies monitor frontend 1 failure if there is no warning on monitor frontend 2 and vice versa.DESCRIPTION:The maintenance measurements from the monitor frontend boards will be affected by the monitor input signals, i.e. the diagnostic algorithm can not use these measurements alone to reliably diagnose fault on the monitor frontend boards. The algorithm assumes that both fron-tends are fed the same input signals. If a maintenance warning then exists on one, but not both of the boards, this board is assumed to be faulty. If maintenance warnings exists on both boards no knowledge is gained about monitor frontend health status.7.4.3.2.6 Remote control testsDIAGNOSTIC ALGORITHM:If there is a “RC link status” warning, there is a problem with the remote control or its data link.DESCRIPTION:A warning on the RC link status indicates that the TXC does not receive valid data from the remote control unit. 7.4.3.2.7 Transmitter control testsDIAGNOSTIC ALGORITHM:TX control “EPROM check” or “Integrity check” warnings indicate a failure on the TXC board.7.4.3.2.8 Standby monitor testsBoardLF generator 1 or 2Oscillator 1 or 2RMS boardMonitor 1 or 2TX Control boardUser defined inputs

Unused VOICE channels: Set alarm limits to OFF and warning limits to ±204.4. Standby monitor: Always disable alarms and warnings on the following channels: Near Field, DC-loop, Far Field Monitor, and Voice.B.1.1 Description of the FFM EXE AL limitsThe FFM EXE AL (Far Field Monitor Executive Alarm) parameter is used to implement execu-tive changeover/shutdown on FFM alarms. This measurement is zero when no alarms exists on the FFM DDM/SDM/RF parameters. When an alarm has lasted for the time configured in the FFM delay value, this measurement will be set to the value 101. By setting the FFM EXE AL high alarm limit to 100, the TX Control will initiate an (executive) changeover or shutdown on FFM parameter alarms. (Actually, any high alarm limit between 1 and 100 would work, but 100 is recommended as the default if executive FFM alarms is desired.)For non-executive FFM alarms, set the FFM EXE AL high alarm limit to a value higher than 101 (200 is recommended as the default).B.1.2 Description of the CL IDENT and CLR IDENT limitsThe CL IDENT and CLR IDENT parameters are the absolute value of the difference between two consecutive 1020 Hz modulation measurements taken on the Course Line and Clearance channels. This means that these parameters will have the value 0 when, for example, the ident-keyer stops sending Morse code or if the 1020 Hz tone is continuously on (at approxi-mately the same level). A positive non-zero value is therefore an indication of ident. modula-tion activity.The recommended low warning limit is 2.5. The ident. modulation levels then needs to be DC-L1 02/42 100 % 0 Off/Off 100 %DC-L2 02/42 100 % 0 Off/Off 100 %DC-L3 02/42 100 % 0 Off/Off 100 %Self test DDM 0.0 % -1.4/4.0 100 % 0.0 % -2.5/Off 100 %Self test SDM 40 % -8/Off 100 % 40 % 25/Off 100 %Self test RF 3.0 V -1.2/1.8 100 % 3.0 V -1/Off 100 %FFM ChA DDM 0.0 % -1.5/1.5 75 % 0.0 % -3.7/3.7 75 %FFM ChA SDM 40 % -4/4 75 % 80 % -5/5 75 %FFM ChA RF 0.0 V 20/80 30/70 0.0 V 20/80 30/70FFM ChB DDM 0.0 % -1.5/1.5 75 % 0.0 % Off/Off 100 %FFM ChB SDM 40 % -4/4 75 % 80 % Off/Off 100 %FFM ChB RF 0.0 V 20/80 30/70 0.0 V Off/Off -100/100FFM EXE AL 00/200 -2047/2047 00/200 -2047/2047CL VOICE DETECT 0.0 Off/Off 150/204 0.0 Off/Off -150/204

All measurements that is greater than this min-imum value should be accepted, the upper warning limit is therefore set to a large value (20 is the recommended value).If executive changeover/shutdown is desired on alarms on the CL or CLR IDENT parameters, the warning limits recommended above should be used, instead of OFF, on the alarm limits.B.2 Cat II monitor LIMIT configurationFor Cat II equipment the monitor limits are configured as for Cat I (see table 1), with the exceptions shown in Table B-2. (Only the LLZ limits are different.)Table B-2 Alarm and warning limits for Cat II equipment.B.3 Cat III monitor LIMIT configurationFor Cat III equipment the monitor limits are configured as for Cat I (see table 1), with the exceptions shown in Table B-3. (Only the LLZ limits are different.)Table B-3 Alarm and warning limits for Cat III equipment.B.4 Executive Monitor delay configurationThe factory default delay configuration for Cat I and II/III (values compliant with ICAO Annex 10) are shown in Factory default delay values.. Note that Annex 10 specifies the total changeover + shutdown delay after an alarm. The delay values used in the NORMARC 7000 RMM software are the time delay between the detection of an alarm and the resulting changeover or shutdown. When a changeover takes place the delay counters are reset. The values entered in the RMM software are therefore set to the Annex 10 value divided by two.The NF delay is used for alarms on the NF DDM, SDM and RF parameters. The IDENT delay is used on the CL/CLR IDENT, MORSE and VOICE parameters. The FFM delay is used on all FFM parameters including FFM EXE AL. The GEN delay is used on all remaining parameters.See chapter 5.8.3 in the Operating Manual for information on delay configuration using the RMM software.LLZ GPChannel Signal Nom Ala H/L Wa H/L Nom Ala WarnCL DDM 0.0 % -1.1/1.1 75 % 0.0 % -3.73/3.73 75 %NF DDM 0.0 % -1.1/1.1 75 % 0.0 % -5.25/5.25 75 %LLZ GPChannel Signal Nom Ala H/L Wa H/L Nom Ala WarnCL DDM 0.0 % -0.9/0.9 75 % 0.0 % -3.73/3.73 75 %NF DDM 0.0 % -0.9/0.9 75 % 0.0 % -5.25/5.25 75 %

Object.This procedure provides a method to complete a line entry of the normal parameters on FAA Form 6750-26, with the equipment in normal configuration.b. Discussion.A line entry of the glide slope normal parameters is required after equipment transfer, before a normal end-fire glide slope ground check, and periodically as required in chapter 4. This check is made without adjustment to the equipment and can be performed from a remote maintenance monitor (RMM). Computer generated data reports may be used in lieu of FAA forms.c. Test Equipment Required.1. A portable ILS receiver (PIR).2. A dvm.3. BIRD wattemeter.NOTE:Chapter 1, Paragraph 1-2b, Test Equipment, discusses external test equipment and BITE, and their proper use in the NAS. Particular attention must be paid to the proper use and main-tenance of test equipment to ensure accurate evaluations of equipment operation. For instance, when using a BIRD wattmeter for power measurements, the same set of rf bodies, wattmeter, and elements must be utilized due to the variability of the wattmeter components. For BITE, proper calibration and verification of measurements are required.d. Conditions.The facility is operating normally. For facilities that are equipped with standby equipment, switch standby equipment on-line to take readings.e. Detailed Procedure.At the local site or RMM location, perform the following steps.(1) Measure and record the normal course SBO dc voltage on Navia Aviation Form “All Glide Slopes Normal Radiatied Parameters”.(3) Measure and record the monitor width DDM (DS), the monitor course DDM (CL), and the modulation equality (carrier feedline DDM) on Navia Aviation Form “All Glide Slopes Normal Radiatied Parameters”.(4) To obtain a computer generated data report of normal readings, log onto the facility to be recorded, check that the transmitter to be recorded is “On Antenna”. The report may be printed by interacting the “Print report” window in the File menu. Include the Front Panel in

Object.This procedure provides a method to determine that a shutdown is properly sensed at the local and/or remote control points.b. Discussion.Certain alarms in the ILS equipment shall result in an equipment transfer and/or shutdown. Also, if remotely monitored, an indication that the facility is shut down shall be received at the remote monitor location. This check confirms that the shutdown occurs and that the remote control point is properly notified. This check can also be initiated and monitored from a remote maintenance monitor (RMM) location.c. Conditions.The facility is operating normally. Advance coordination of this maintenance activity with air traffic control personnel is required.d. Detailed Procedure.1. Simulate a continuous alarm, or from the RMM perform a station integrity check.2. Allow a shutdown to occur.3. Determine that the proper remote and local alarm indications occurred.4. If remote restore capability is installed, restore the facility from the remote control point or allow the auto-restart circuit to restore the facility.5. Make an entry in the facility log that this check was completed.5-42 thru 5-44 reserved.5-45 CAPTURE-EFFECT MONITOR.a. Object.This procedure provides a method to determine whether the glide slope monitor alarm points are within the reference values established during the reference flight inspection.b. Discussion.1. The glide slope monitor is used to ensure the integrity of the glide slope system by permit-ting the glide slope to operate only if certain system parameters are within the limits estab-lished during the reference flight inspection. This performance check is accomplished by adjusting the transmitting equipment to cause a monitor alarm and then verifying that the radiated parameters are within established reference values. If a radiated parameter is found outside the established reference values, it must be determined if the condition is due to monitor drift. If so, the monitor alarm points must be tightened to ensure that for day-to-day monitor drift, the monitor will alarm whenever the radiated signal parameters are at or beyond the established reference values.2. The reference data must be measured carefully. Rf power measurements using the Bird Wattmeter must always be accomplished with the same meter and elements. The ele-ments shall be clearly marked. In addition to the rf wattmeter readings, it is recommended

These reference readings can be made with greater repeatability by using the dvm than by using the analog wattmeter. This is done by connecting a dvm, set to measure dc voltage, to the detector element output in place of the normal meter. Improved consistency in dvm readings will result if the dvm input is shunted with a 1400-W ±1 percent resistor. This resistor presents the same load to the detector elements as the normal analog meter. If the reference readings are made with the load resistor in place, all future measurements must be made in this configuration.3. Measurements taken with built in test equipment (BITE) (i.e., power, DDM, modulation, etc.) must be verified for accuracy with external test equipment as outlined in this hand-book. This is to ensure that repeatable results are obtained and maintained in the case of internal equipment failure and/or replacement of modules that effect BITE measurements.4. For equipment that uses a maintenance data terminal (MDT), when adjusting the phase of a signal, the number of degrees adjusted may need to be determined from a reference index number. This may be accomplished via a table or conversion chart, usually found in the equipment TI. For this reason, the alternate methods described in the procedures (i.e., the addition and removal of line lengths, elbows, etc.) is recommended.5. The monitor DDM values are the monitor input values as measured with a PIR or the digital readout values of the monitor or as measured with BITE/MDT. No tolerance is established for the DDM values. They are used to detect trends such as system or monitor drift.6. This performance check requires a line entry on Navia Aviation Form “CEGS Monitor Ref-erence Data”. The reference data line contains the reference data used to perform a mon-itor performance check. The reference data line can only be updated in accordance with paragraph 5-7.c. Test Equipment Required.1. A portable ILS receiver (PIR).2. BITE/MDT3. BIRD wattmeter4. A dvm. 5. The FA-9438 modulation meter or equivalent.d. Conditions.A facility shutdown is required for this check.e. Detailed Procedure.1. Preliminary actions.(a) Refer to Navia Aviation Form “CEGS Monitor Reference Data” for the reference values specified during the monitor performance check.(b) Verify that modulation is 40 percent for each tone. (PIR connected to CSB COU test con-nector on facility front). The facility must be properly phased.(c) Set up the PIR or equivalent to measure DDM in the carrier feedline and ensure that mod-ulation equality (0 DDM) exists.(d) Bypass the equipment monitor(s).2. Width alarms.(a) Connect the dvm to the transmitter SBO test connector.. This voltage represents the nomi-nal transmitter SBO power in front of the SBO step attenuator. Measure the dc voltage, note

Compare the values to the reference values. If found outside the tolerance ivestigation should be carried out. (b) Decrease the sideband power (increase the SBO attenuator value) until the monitor is in alarm. Confirm that this attenuator value is not greater than the flight checked reference value. Record this SBO attenuator value. If the alarm value has been exceeded, corrective action should be taken.(c) Measure and record the width monitor DDM on Navia Aviation Form "CEGS Monitor Ref-erence Data". The width DDM is availible in the PMDT Monitor 1 window. Note that no toler-ance exists on this entry. It is used to detect trends.(d) Increase the sideband power (decrease the SBO attenuator value) until the monitor is in alarm. Confirm that this attenuator value is not less than the flight checked reference value. Record this SBO attenuator value. If the alarm value has been exceeded, corrective action should be taken.(e) Measure and record the width monitor DDM on Navia Aviation Form “CEGS Monitor Refer-ence Data”. The width DDM is availible in the PMDT Monitor 1 window. Note that no tolerance exists on this entry. It is used to detect trends.(g) Return the sideband power to normal.3. Path angle alarms (integral).(a) Connect the PIR to measure DDM in the carrier feedline (Facility CSB test connector). (b) Using the PMDT, open Test DDM window, click on TX1 dominance Off button to activate 90 Hz predominance (assuming transmitter 1 is active to the antennas). If necessary adjust Inc or Dec until the monitor course position channel has just passed the threshold of alarm. Measure and record the carrier feedline DDM value on Navia Aviation Form “CEGS Monitor Reference Data”. Confirm that the carrier feedline DDM is not more than established reference value. If not within tolerance, corrective action is required.(c) Measure and record the course monitor DDM on Navia Aviation Form “CEGS Monitor Reference Data”. The course monitor DDM can be observed in the currently active Test DDM window as parameter MON1 CL DDM Nom. Note that no tolerance is established for this entry. It is used only to detect trends.(d) Repeat the procedure in steps (b) and (c) with the TX1 dominance button activated to 150 Hz.(e) Restore the TX1 dominance button to off. 4. SBO dephasing alarms.(a) Insert a N type elbow in the CSB carrier feedline.

Middle antenna dephasing alarms.(a) Insert and adjust the test kit phaser in the middle antenna feedline until the clearance monitor alarms. The test kit phaser should be the same as used for the reference flight check that established the Navia Aviation Form "CEGS Monitor Reference Data" values. Also, the test phaser should have been previously checked with a vector voltmeter to ensure accuracy. A preferred alternate method is to add the same predetermined line length (type N or BNC elbows, or equivalent) to both the lower and upper antenna outputs of the APCU.(b) Record the change in degrees in the middle antenna dephasing column on Navia Aviation Form “CEGS Monitor Reference Data”. Confirm that the value is within established reference value. If not within tolerance, corrective action is required.(c) Repeat the procedure in the above steps with the middle antenna phase retarded (the same line length added to the middle antenna output).(d) Restore the middle antenna phase to normal, or remove the test phaser or lines.6. Attenuate upper antenna alarm.(a) Insert the capture-effect test kit attenuator into the upper antenna feedline. This attenua-tor should have been previously checked with a vector voltmeter to ensure that the total inser-tion phase delay equals 360° ±5°. Also, the accuracy of the dial calibration of the attenuator should be verified. Refer to paragraph 5-155 for this procedure.(b) Adjust the test attenuator until the path monitor alarms. (c) Record the attenuation value in the upper antenna attenuation column on Navia Aviation Form “CEGS Monitor Reference Data”. Confirm that the attenuation is less than, or equal to, the established reference value. If not within tolerance, corrective action is required.(d) Remove the test attenuator from the upper antenna feedline.7. Attenuate middle antenna alarm.(a) Insert the capture-effect test kit attenuator into the middle antenna feedline.(b) Adjust the test attenuator until the width monitor alarms.(c) Record the attenuation value in the middle antenna attenuation column on Navia Aviation Form “CEGS Monitor Reference Data”. Confirm that the attenuation is less than, or equal to, the established reference value. If not within tolerance, corrective action is required.(d) Remove the test attenuator from the middle antenna feedline.8.

Object.This procedure provides a method to determine the amplitude modulation percentages of the 90 and 150 Hz navigational tones.b. Discussion.1. The FA-9438 modulation meter (or equivalent) is the primary standard for the measure-ment of modulation percentage. Other equivalent pieces of test equipment could include a portable ILS receiver (PIR) capable of measuring modulation directly or built-in test equip-ment (BITE). These may be substituted for the FA-9438 when properly calibrated and/or verified for accuracy. The oscilloscope method is a backup method that uses the detected composite carrier envelope for determining the approximate percentage. The oscilloscope reference values should be noted when flight inspection or FA-9348 modulation meter have been used to measure modulation.2. If flight inspection reports the modulation out of tolerance, reconfirm your measurement. If the measurement is within the FA-9438 or BITE that has been verified with the FA-9438, before adjusting the transmitter modulation percentage to meet flight inspection tolerances, advise flight inspection personnel of your situation. If possible, ask them to verify their sys-tem calibration and check for radio-frequency interference (rfi). Factors that may cause a difference in modulation percentage readings are:(a) Excessive carrier component distortion.(b) FA-9438 calibration correction factor or front panel calibration.(c) BITE malfunction. With standby equipment, a quick check might be made by transferring to the standby to check for the same indication.(d) Transmitter output spectrum and frequency and the 90 and 150 Hz frequencies.(e) Stray rf pickup by the cable connecting the FA-9438 to the rf wattmeter body coupler may cause erroneous or inconsistent readings. Double-shielded coaxial cable, such as RG-223/U will minimize stray rf pickup by the cable.c. Test Equipment Required.1. The FA-9438 modulation meter (or equivalent). d. Conditions.The facility is operating normally.e. Procedures.Refer to Instruction Book TI 6750.141, Installation, Operation, and Maintenance Instructions for Meter, ILS Modulation, Type FA-9438, section 3, for complete front panel calibration and operational instructions.

The alternate procedure (paragraph g) uses the oscilloscope to determine the approximate modulation percentage.1. Turn the FA-9438 ac power switch ON and allow a 10-minute warmup.2. Place the function selector switch to RF ZERO, and adjust the RF ZERO control for 00.0 on the PERCENT MODULATION indication.3. Place the function selector switch to DISPLAY ZERO, and adjust the DISPLAY ZERO con-trol for 00.0 on the PERCENT MODULATION indicator.4. Place the function selector switch to CAL 150 Hz, and adjust the CAL 150 Hz control for 42.5 on the PERCENT MODULATION indicator.5. Place the function selector switch to CAL 90 Hz, and adjust the CAL 90 Hz control for 42.5 on the PERCENT MODULATION INDICATOR.NOTE:It may be necessary to repeat steps (2) through (5) occasionally as the FA-9438 warms up.6. Use a double-shielded coaxial cable and connect the modulation meter to the COU CSB test connector on the front of the facility. Insert a 20 dB attenuator at the input of the modu-lation meter.7. Place the function selector switch to LOCALIZER or GLIDE SLOPE, as appropriate, and read the 90 Hz and 150 Hz modulation percentages on the PERCENT MODULATION indi-cator.8. Record the percentages on FAA Form 6750-32, and determine if they are in tolerance.9. At two-frequency facilities, complete the steps above for the clearance transmitter on a dif-ferent FAA Form 6750-32.
