MMT SOFTWARE LOADING
8.0
This section covers loading of MMT software onto the MMT host computer.
The host computer must be a 386 or faster IBM compatible computer with 4 Megabytes of RAM.
a 3.5" high density floppy drive. and at least 1 Megabyte of memory available for use on the hard
drive. For the MMT software to run property it is important that the C: partition is no larger than
1.5 Gigabytes and be designated FAT or FAT 16. The MMT software must be executed from
DOS and cannot be run from Windows or a Windows DOS shell. A RS-232C serial port and
serial cable (PIN 422632-801) are necessary for connection to the MagnaStar C-2000 system.
Execution of the MagnaStar Maintenance Terminal (MMT) software can only occur after it is
loaded in the host computer memory. This loading process will only be required to be performed
the first time the MMT software is to be used or if an updated version is required. The host
computer when loaded with the MagnaStar Maintenance Terminal software will be referred to as
the MMT. Loading of the MMT software will automatically start the execution of the MMT after
the completion of the software download to the computer's memory. The following steps are to
be used if the MMT software has not been loaded into the host computers memory or if an
updated version is to be loaded:
Power up the computer and wait for the computer to complete the boot process. After
the computer has completed the boot sequence, insert the 3.5- MagnaStar Maintenance
Terminal (MMT) software disk in the appropriate drive (A or B) of the computer.
If you placed the diskette in the A drive use the following commands: From the root
directory type "A:\MMT COPY" . then press "ENTER" to execute this command.
C:>A:\MMT COpy IENTERI
If you placed the diskette in the B drive use the following commands: From the root
directory type "B:\MMT COpy B" , then press "ENTER" to execute this command.
C:>B:\MMT COpy B I ENTERI
The "MMT COPY" command will automatically load all the software files and create the
necessary directories required to operate the MMT software. This command will also
start the execution of the MMT software.

9.1.2 MMT COMMUNICATION VERIFICATION
The MMT Communications Verification test assures that the MMT software is properly communicating
with the ARTU by checking the version of software that is loaded in the ARTU.
Symptom: "ERROR=> MMT communications failure - timed out"
The ARTU and the MMT are not communicating when this information is displayed in the Radio
Responses window. Check the MMT cable connection between the MMT computer and the
ARTU. Check for a damaged connector on RS-232 serial communications port of the computer.
After checking these interface connections press "R" to repeat the test. If the same error is
displayed. cycle power on the computer. If the same error message is displayed after cycling
power on the computer then replace the ARTU.
Symptom: "Radio software executing in unlocked online state"
This message will be displayed on the screen if the ARTU was powered up before the computer
with the MMT software running was connected to the ARTU. Remove power to the ARTU for
greater than 20 seconds. Apply power to the ARTU and press "R" to repeat the test.

9.1.3 START ARTU OPERATIONAL SOFTWARE
When the ARTU is powered up with an MMT connected, the ARTU software will not execute and will be
in what is termed a "boot" mode. When commanded by the MMT, the ARTU will start the operational
software. The first step in starting the operational is for the ARTU to run Built-In-Test (BIT). The normal
BIT process begins by turning "ON" the ARTU Fault indicator. The MMT will indicate that the ARTU has
started software execution which is displayed in the Radio Responses window. The ARTU then begins an
FEPROM test which takes approximately 15-20 seconds to complete. Owing this time there will be no new
messages displayed in the Radio Responses window. BIT test result information will be reported in the
Radio Responses window. Depending on how long the ARTU has been powered prior to executing power-
up BIT, the screen may pause in the middle of the tests. This pause is to allow the ARTU oscillator to
warm-up. This can take one to five minutes. After this pause, BIT will complete.
Symptom: Radio Responses window does not display test results.
If the Radio Responses window does not appear to change, the user should look to see if the red
Fault light is illuminated. If the red Fault light is not illuminated then press "R" to repeat the test.
Symptom: ARTU fails power-up BIT.
If the ARTU fails a BIT test, note which test has failed and replace the ARTU.
After power up BIT has completed, it is possible to review the BIT test data by sending the
following MMT commands:
Press "FI ", ; scrolls screen to commanded mode menus
press "2" and then press ENTER, ; selects Radio Test Menu
press "2" and then press ENTER, ; selects Commanded Bit Menu
press "0" and then press ENTER. ; selects view BIT results
Pressing "N" for next, or "P" for previous, will scroll the user through the BIT test results.
Symptom: ARTU appears to pause during BIT for longer than ten minutes.
BIT will begin testing and stop during the middle of the tests to wait for the OCXO frequency
reference to warm up. BIT testing will stop at the "QUERY AMX" test. Ifafter stopping at the
"QUERY AM)(" test, the MMT BIT test times out after ten minutes and the RED Fault indicator
is still illuminated, then the ARTU has faulted. Replace the ARTU and note that the ARTU has
failed for OCXO warm up.
Symptom: BIT test appears to repeat.
If the BIT test appears to be repeating over and over then one of two conditions is occurring. One,
the voltage at the ARTU is dropping below +20.5 volts DC during the power up BIT. Measure the
voltage at the radio interface with ARTU attached. If the voltage drops below +20.5 VDC, check
the gauge of wire used for the power cable to insure that it is of sufficient size to minimize the
voltage drop from the circuit breaker to the ARTU. The second condition is current limiting. If
the power system cannot support a 3-5 ampere current surge while maintaining a stable voltage
then the ARTU will repeat BIT.

9.1.4 LOCKED OFF-LINE STATE
For the MMT to command certain tests for the installation checkout, the ARTU software must be placed in
a mode which will allow the ARTU the flexibility to perform these tests. This mode of operation is called
the "Locked OFF-Line State". This test step is a mode change only. Failure of this mode change will only
occur iftbe MMT is not communicating with the ARTU.
It should be noted that while the ARTU is in this mode, the Handset screen may go blank and will not
respond to keypad inputs.
Symptom: ERROR=> MMT communications failure - timed out.
If this message is displaycd in thc Radio Responses window then check the cabling between thc
ARTU and the MMT. If the cabling is correct then press "R" to repeat the test.

9.1.5 ARTU MOUNTING TRAY FAN TEST
Under normal operational conditions, the ARTU Mounting Tray Fan is activated by a switch in the ARTU
which is under software control. The ARTU monitors a temperature sensor located in the ARTU and is
programmed to turn on the Fan when the temperature is at approximately room temperature. The ARTU
Mounting Tray Fan test will command the ARTU to turn the fan "ON" to check operation.
Symptom: The ARTU Mounting Tray Fan is not operational.
If the ARTU Mounting Tray Fan is not operational, the problem can be caused by the ARTU,
wiring to the ARTU Mounting Tray or the Mounting Tray Fan itself. Several steps wi)] be
required to detennine the cause of failure. These steps may also vary depending on which
assembly of the ARTU mounting Tray assembly that is used in the aircraft.
For -801 Tra~: Remove power from system Remove the power connector from ARTU J2
connector interface and ground pin P I-F of the ARTU Power cable. Apply power to the system.
If the fan operates, perform a continuity check on the ARTU Tray - ARTU Power cable interface.
If the wiring is correct, replace the ARTU. If the fan does not operate, replace the ARTU
Mounting Tray.
For -802 Trax: Remove the PI connector from the ARTU Mounting Tray. With power removed,
grotmd pin Jl-9 on the ARTU Tray. Apply power to the system. If the fan does not operate,
replace the ARTU Mounting Tray. If the fan operates, perform a continuity check on the 802
ARTU Tray - ARTU Power cable. If the wiring is correct, replace the ARTU. Ifnot replace
cable.

9.1.6 ARTU TRANSMITTER OUTPUT POWER
During the ARTU Transmitter Output Power test, the ARTU will transmit a CW signal at a frequency of
894.9495 MHz. The power level transmitted by the ARTU will be 10 watts minimum. Measurement of
the transmitted signal should be made as close to the Antenna as possible to check the functionality of the
greatest number of the C-2000 components. The insertion loss of components in addition to the ARTU
must be accounted for when measuring the output power of the C-2000 system. The maximum total cable
loss that can be used with the C-2000 system is specified at 3 dB. The maximum specified insertion loss of
the Duplexer is 1.4 dB. If power is measured at the Antenna connector, the minimum power measured
should be no less than 4 watts.
It should be noted that the power meter or thru-line wattmeter used for this test must be capable of
withstanding 16 Watts of RF energy and must be capable of operating at frequency of I Ohz for correct
results.
Symptom: The MMTI appears stuck.
Wait for the MMTI to properly execute commands to ARTU (5-10 sec). Commands to the ARTU
via the MMTI may take from 5 to 10 seconds to execute during which time the MMTI screens will
appear to change and then stop before completing.
Symptom: Low output power / No output power.
If power measurements at the Antenna connector are low, it will be necessary to determine which
component is responsible for the excessive loss by process of elimination. First, measure the
output power directly out of the ARTU. If the power measurement is incorrect replace the ARTU.
If the power measurement is correct, measure the output at the end of the transmit cable. If the
power measurements is incorrect, replace the transmit cable. If the power measurement is correct,
measure the power at the Antenna output of the Duplexer. If the power measurement is incorrect,
replace the Duplexer.

of 1.4 dB. The 8aXimu8 syat.. C8ble loas for the RP cables is specified
at 3 dB. The ~r _ter should measure greater than +36 dBm when all

9.1.7 ARTU RECEIVE SIGNAL STRENGTH MEASUREMENT
The ARTU Receive Signal Strength measurement test will verify the complete RF portion of the C-2000
system. This test will require the use of a MagnaStar Loop-Around test box. During this test a 16 QAM
signal is transmitted by the ARTU. With the MagnaStar Loop-Around test box connected to the Antenna,
the signal is coupled into the Loop-Around test box where it is mixed by 45 MHz and coupled back into the
Antenna. A receive signal strength measurement using the ARTU checks out both the TSC and Pilot
receive channels of the ARTU as well all the components between the ARTU and the Antenna. The
frequency of the transmitted signal is 894.9495 MHz.
This test is to check for gross loss problems in the RF cables and associated hardware and is not intended to
be a calibrated test measurement. Typically the value should be measured at - 103 dBm +/- 6 dB with
nominally valued components. Because the TSC and Pilot channels are separate receivers, variations
between measurements are possible. If, however, there is a delta between the two receivers of greater than
10 dB, the ARTU is to be rejected.
The Loop-Around test box is powered by a 9 volt battery. The battery voltage must be greater than 6.0
volts to operate and provide the expected perfonnance results. The Loop-Around test box provides the
capability to check the battery to ensure that the voltage is correct. The Loop-Around test box attenuator
setting should be set to the "ON" position for the first part of this test. Switching the attenuator to the
"OFF" position should change the receive signal strength by approximately 30 dB.
Symptom: Reading between the TXRX and RX receivers greater than 10 dB.
If the delta between the TXRX (TSC) and RX (Pilot) receivers is greatertban 10 dB, repeat the
test. If after repeating the test the same results occur then replace the ARTU.
Symptom: RSS readings on both the TXRX and RX channels less than -109 dBm (-103 dBm - 6 dB)
If the RSS readings are less than -109 dBm then the lossy component needs to be located. If the
ARTU Transmitter Output Power test has been successfully completed then the problem is either
the Antenna, Duplexer, Receive cable or ARTU. If the ARTU has successfully passed BIT, then
the most likely candidates are the Antenna, Duplexer or the receive cable. With the proper
adapters, cable loss should be measured for the ARTU receive cable. Elimination of the receive
cable as the problem leaves the Duplexer and Antenna. With the proper adapters and a 30 dB/25
Watt pad, the antenna cable can be directly attached to the Loop-Around test box bypassing the
Antenna. If the loss problem still exists after bypassing the Antenna, replace the Duplexer.

9.1.8 HANDSET I LAN TEST
The Handset I LAN test wilt inform the installer of the number ofCDBRs/AIUs and Handsets with which
the ARTU can cornrnunicate. This test does not distinguish the difference between a CDBR or an Am.
Also, this test will not identify the presence of a CAS.
Symptom: The MMTI does not respond with the correct number of CDBRs or Handsets.
Isolation of the faulted componellt will require a process of elimination and possible component
swapping. Start by disconnecting the Inter-CDBR cable from the 12 port of the second to last
CDBR. Repeat the Handset/LAN test and determine if the correct number of components
connected to the system is displayed If an incorrect number of components is displayed, repeat
the process until only the ARTU Data cable and one CDBR are connected to the system. If the
Handset LAN test still fails, disconnect the ARTU Data cable from the ARTU. Perform a
continuity check on the ARTU Data cable. Be sure to check for opens, pin to pin shorts and pin to
shield shorts. Also check continuity of the shield from end to end. If the cable continuity checks
correctly, swap CDBRs and reconnect the cable and CDBR. If the system still does not display
the presence of a CDBR, then replace the ARTU.
