1.INSTALLATION, INTEGRATION AND CHECKOUT 1.1 Introduction This section contains installation information for the independently located DME. If the DME is to be collocated with VOR or ILS refer to the basic instructions in this section and to the installation instructions for the VOR or ILS equipment. With respect to general requirements, a good VOR or ILS site will satisfy the DME requirements as well. System performance must be verified by flight inspection. Figure 1-1 shows a typical DME site. NOTE After flight inspections and prior to use by pilots, it is mandatory that the monitor be left in control of the facility and not in bypass. 1.2 Site Information 1.2.1 Site Selection The signal radiated from the DME is affected by obstructions and terrain in the immediate vicinity of the antenna and by obstructions and terrain within the service range of the station. An ideal site would be the highest ground in the vicinity with level terrain, cleared of all objects for a radius of at least 3000 feet (915 meters), and with no obstructions extending above the horizontal plane of the antenna within the service range of the station. In most localities, it is not possible to satisfy the ideal site requirements. Every effort must be made to obtain the best site available. Although no absolute minimum requirements can be stated, a site is normally acceptable if it meets the recommendations contained in the following paragraphs. 1.2.1.1 Terrain Features The terrain should be level within a radius of 200 feet (61 meters). In a radius between 200 and 1000 feet (61 and 305 meters), a downward slope is acceptable if (1) the rate of descent is not more than 4 feet in 100 feet (1.22 meters in 30.5 meters) and (2) contour lines are generally circular around the site. Beyond a radius of 1000 feet (305 meters), terrain should be below the horizontal plane of the antenna. 1.2.1.2 Obstructions There should be no structures within 750 feet (229 meters) of the antenna. Metallic structures should not subtend vertical angles greater than 1.2 degrees as measured from the antenna. Wooden structures with negligible metal content should not subtend vertical angles greater than 2.5 degrees as measured from the antenna. Structures having considerable length (such as aircraft hangers or administration buildings) should be situated lengthwise on a radial from the antenna. Single trees less than 35 feet (11 meters) high may be tolerated beyond 750 feet. No group of trees or groves may be within 1000 feet. No overhead power or control lines are permissible within 750 feet of the antenna.
Figure 1-1 Typical DME Site
1.2.2 Shelter Requirements The shelter location depends primarily on the maximum cable run allowed and on the desired location for the DME antenna. An RF transmission line of 2" foamflex cable (with Type N connectors at each end), one cable for the monitor antenna made up of 1/4" foamflex (with a Type N connector at one end and a TNC male connector at the opposite end), and one AC cable for the OB Lite may be supplied with the DME equipment. These cables are 35 feet long. When the requirements exceed 35 feet, company engineering personnel can provide the necessary planning to determine the requirements. The DME ground equipment is designed to operate continuously and unattended, but space must be allocated for maintenance personnel and their equipment. 1.3 Unpacking and Repacking The DME electronic subsystem is shipped unassembled. Only general precautions can be given because the crating and unpacking depends upon destination and what optional equipment is included. Most items are packed separately in individual containers; these are then grouped for crating. Each crate contains a packing list which details what equipment is enclosed in the crate. Unpack the equipment and visually inspect each item for accuracy and damage, but DO NOT REMOVE any ESD protective wrapping. Report any damage immediately. After inspection, repack each item to prevent damage. During installation, unpack items as they are needed. 1.3.1 Environmental Considerations The environmental conditions must not exceed those listed in the Specifications of Table 1-1 Error!
