C.
Software
The software in the SDU can be considered as being supplied in two elements, one
contained within the CCM the other operating on the SDU processors (CPM & APM).
The SDU’s application software primarily functions as the system controller providing
system level tasks such as CCM control, BITE reporting, Avionics interfacing via
ARINC-429 (including Inertial Reference System (IRS)) and providing external
interfaces (such as Ethernet) as well as routing functions between the external interfaces
and the CCM as necessary.
The SDU’s APM and CPM application software meets RTCA/DO-178B level D
requirements, and the CCM application software meets RTCA/DO-178 level E (Level D
for Classic only) requirements.
D.
ORT Parameters
The primary source of Owner Requirement Table (ORT) is the SCM ORT and is also
stored inside the SDU. The ORT database contains configuration data that is used to
customize the operation of the TFS system. It allows various preferences to be set to
enable the efficient use of the equipment in normal operation. The SDU is delivered to
customers with a default ORT.
E.
General Operation
The SDU controls and processes all essential data in order to manage the reception and
transmission of data through the satellite link. The SDU controls the set-up of the
required channel types, providing modulation/demodulation, error correction, coding,
and data rates associated with the satellite communication channel(s).
The SDU is of modular design and can be configured for use on a wide variety of
aircraft. That is cabin only, cockpit only or cabin and cockpit services.
The SDU converts digital/audio inputs to Radio Frequency (RF), and contains a HPA
function providing the necessary output power to support communication between the
aircraft and the satellite. It also controls the associated antenna sub-system and uses the
SCM for its own configuration data purposes.
When the distance between the SDU and the DLNA would require an RF cable with a
loss of >1.4dB or if more than 30W of RF power is required when cable loss is < 1.4dB,
an FMHPA may be placed between the SDU and the DLNA to amplify the signal. The
SDU internal HPA will then run at a reduced power output.

The SDU operates within set frequency bandwidths:
F.
•
RX range is between 1525 to 1559 MHz
•
TX is tuned over the range 1626.5 to 1660.5 MHz
Sub-modules Basic Detailed Operation
The Front Panel assembly gives visual indications for system status, external
maintenance interface connections, the SDU Person Activated Self-Test (PAST) push
button and a connector for the Standalone Interface System (SIS).
The Backplane assembly makes interconnections between external interfaces and the
SDU internal sub-assemblies.
The APM provides interfacing to external avionics. It receives aircraft position, speed
and heading information from external avionics via ARINC 429, and updates the CCM
with position information every second. The APM manages satellite selection based on
aircraft position, and maintains antenna pointing to the wanted satellite beam steering
via ARINC 429. The APM manages RF resources and set CCM transmit power levels,
taking into consideration antenna gain and cable losses stored within the ORT.
The CPM handles and controls all communications interfaces (Ethernet, RS232 and
RS422) and analog audio (cockpit 4-wire).
The CCM converts user’s input/output data to signals suitable for transmitting and
receiving L-Band signals using the satellite link.
The HPA module amplifies the low level RF signals from the CCM to produce high
power output prior to connection to the antenna.
The PSM operates from 115 Vac and supplies low level dc power supplies to SRUs
within the SDU and 12 Vdc to the SCM.
The OCXO provides 10 MHz clock reference signal for the CCM circuit.

2.6. SDU CONFIGURABLE PINOUT AND PIN DESCRIPTION
In the case of using the mandatory configuration straps the SDU is configurable via the
SDU ARINC 600 configuration straps as defined in ARINC 781.
The straps input values will be read only at unit power-up to determine the system
configuration. The SDU configuration will be selectable by multiplexing the
Configuration Straps inputs with the service availability discrete outputs as per ARINC
781 Attachment 1-4.

A.
Mandatory Configuration Pins
The link between pins Top plug (TP)3D and TP3E must be removed when an external
FMHPA is connected. They are used as hardware implemented safety override to force
the internal HPA function into low power mode.
Pin TP3G must be used on all aircraft installations since one of its functions is to indicate
whether all other configuration pins (excluding TP3D, TP3E, TP3F, TP3G, and TP4D)
should be used by the SDU. Pin TP4D should be used on all aircraft installations since it
indicates the SDU number (1 or 2).
Pin TP3F must be used on all aircraft installations since it indicates that the number of
all configuration pins (excluding TP3D) including the parity pin itself connected to
service availability discrete (or TP3D) is odd.

Interconnection Cables
(1) RF Coaxial Cables
The SDU is connected to the DLNA or FMHPA and Antenna (refer to Figures 2.12 to
2.15), by means of a RF low loss coaxial cable. The distance between the devices, and
the cable selected for the installation must be such that the cable losses remains within
the limits indicated within Figure 2-15, Note 4. If the cable losses cannot remain within
the limits then an FMHPA must be installed between the SDU and the DLNA (Refer to
Figure 2.13). All coaxial cable should be 50 Ohms nominally.
NOTE:
Interconnect cables should be routed away from sources of potential
electromagnetic interference. Use shielded wires and cables where
necessary.

ORT Parameters
The ORT is represented by a database containing a set of configuration data for the
exclusive use of the SDU. The ORT is partitioned for two types of parameters in
accordance with ARINC 781:
•
User parameters, for operator use
•
Secure parameters, for aircraft specific configurations
The ORT parameters are stored within the SCM and/or SDU, and are used to customise
the operation of the TFS system, allowing various preferences to be set to enable the

efficient use of the equipment within different platform configurations. The SDU and
SCM are delivered with a default ORT.
C.
ORT Synchronisation
At each power up the SDU reads the ORT from the SCM, and compares it with its locally
stored copy. In normal condition the SDU and SCM ORTs should be the same, but if
different the SDU overwrites the local copy with the ORT read from the SCM. The SDU
uses that ORT until the SDU is powered down.
A small number of System Configuration Pins are mandatory. The others may be
optionally used by installers to define additional configuration details. If the optional
System Configuration Pins are not used then the configuration information may be
found in the Owner Requirements Table (ORT). TP3G is used to define whether the
optional System Configuration Pins should be read by the SDU.
The SDU stores the local copy of the SCM Secure and User ORTs over a power down in
case one of the ORTs from the SCM is not valid when the SDU next powers up.
NOTE:1.
For more information concerning the operation of the SDU when it
determines that an ORT is not valid refer to the ARINC 781 specification
section 3.4.2 ‘Configuration & Identification Data’.
NOTE:2.
For more information concerning changes or updates regarding ORT
contact the Thales TFS product support representative.
D.
Basic Operation
When operating, the SCM interfaces with the SDU CCM via the SDU CPM. The SCM
operation will not commence until an input voltage from the SDU is detected.
Alternatively, when removed form the aircraft the SCM will also acknowledge an input
voltage from a personal computer (PC), and will operate as if it were connected to an
SDU.
A single USIM card is required for each Swift Broadband channel operated by the SDU.
The SCM contains an External Configuration Memory (ECM). The ECM is a nonvolatile memory, which stores the ORT database.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
30000
3.1. INTRODUCTION
The SDU and SCM should be installed in the aircraft in a manner consistent with
acceptable workmanship and engineering practices, and in accordance with the
instructions set forth in this manual.
To ensure that the system has been properly and safely installed in the aircraft the
installer should make a through visual inspection and conduct an overall operational
check of the system on the ground prior to commissioning to the Customer and or a
flight.
NOTE:
Before installing any components or cabling, read all notes contained
within drawings.
3.2. INTERCHANGEABILITY
The TFS comprises two major sub-systems and a number of individual units. System
interchangeability for each of the major sub-systems and unit interchangeability for the
individual units. The first major sub-system comprises the SDU and the SCM. The
second is the antenna sub-system, comprising two LRUs, the antenna with its integrated
beam steering function, and the DLNA. Interchangeability is also desired for the
FMHPA.
There are two instances whereby individual units are defined to be functional doublets.
This means that the interwiring and pin out definitions are interchangeable, but due to
unique protocol implementations, the supply and acquisition of these units are
manufacturer specific. Functional Doublets are different from Matched Pairs in that each
unit of the Functional Doublet may fail and be changed independently, whereas in
Matched Pairs both units must be changed regardless of which unit has failed.
The Functional Doublets are as follows:

3.3. SDU/SCM LOCATION AND ACCESSIBILITY GUIDELINES
CAUTION:
BEFORE EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION ENSURE THAT THE
AIRCRAFT POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT BREAKER IS
POSITIONED IN THE OFF CONDITION.
The SDU must be installed in a pressurized zone that is also partially temperature
controlled, and mounted on an appropriate ARINC 600 compliant mounting rack. The
SDU requires external forced air-cooling (refer Section 2 G).
The SCM should be installed as close to the SDU as possible in order to keep the cable
runs to a maximum 10 feet.
To determine the best location, the installer must select equipment locations to allow
easy access to these components and their connectors. Equipment location will vary with
aircraft type and design/installation specifications.
The location of LRUs must comply with ARINC 781 limitations. The electronic bay is
the prefered location to install this unit.
The SDU must be installed in a location that allows the following facilities to be
accessible:
a.
Front Panel LEDs
b.
Front Panel TFS system Test Push Button
c.
Front Panel Test Port, Software loading RJ45 connector
d.
Front Panel SIS connector.
3.4. MOUNTING TRAY
The mounting tray used for the installation of the SDU must comply with the design
specifications for the 6 MCU (Modular Concept Unit) form factor. Refer to the ARINC
600 Specification for detailed information regarding the design of compatible equipment
and airframe installations.

3.5. COOLING
The SDU is designed to accept an installation configuration able to provide forced aircooling as defined in Section 3.5 of the ARINC Specification 600.
In normal operation the SDU will be cooled by forced convection with air supplied from
the platform services at a maximum flow rate of 50 kg/hr and a temperature of up to
40oC. The cooling air must enter the equipment chassis at the bottom via a plenum
chamber and exhaust at the top.
3.6. POWER REQUIREMENTS
It is the responsibility of the installer to select the appropriate gauge of wire for power
connections, and to ensure that the required safety and voltage drop requirements are
complied with.
For SDU power supply specifications refer to:
a.
2.3.K: SDU Electrical Characteristics.

3.7. SDU RF CONNECTIONS
CAUTION:
DO NOT EXCEED MINIMUM CABLE RADIUS OF CURVATURE
FOR THE COAXIAL CABLE. USE DUMMY CABLES FOR A
FIRST INSTALLATION TO DETERMINE CABLE RUNS. INSTALL
FINAL CABLES AFTER THIS MODELLING OPERATION.
CAUTION:
ONLY PREFORMED RF CABLES SHALL BE CONNECTED TO
THE SATCOM SYSTEM EQUIPMENT. ATTEMPTING TO FORM
CABLES OR APPLYING STRESS TO THE CABLES WHILE
THEY ARE CONNECTED TO THE EQUIPMENT CONNECTORS
MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT.
The SDU or FMHPA is connected to the DLNA through a RF coaxial cable. Installation
designer must be aware that the shorter the cable is, the better system performance.
As the SDU/DLNA low loss cable is sometimes almost rigid and it could have a
diameter not compatible with the IGA and DLNA connectors, it is recommended to
install a short portion of a smaller and more flexible cable at each end of this low loss
cable (pig tail type installation).
If necessary, secure the cable by means of evenly spaced collars to prevent the cable
from chafing on aircraft parts and surfaces. These collars must be of a design, which
avoids damaging the cable.
NOTE:
D.
Interconnect cables should be routed away from sources of potential
electromagnetic interference. Use shielded wires and cables where
necessary.
Insertion Losses
The SDU RF interface with the Antenna via a DLNA device. The diplexer and LNA are
combined into one unit for installation. The Diplexer function couples transmit signals
from the SDU to the respective antenna. The LNA amplifies the very low level L-band
receive signal from its respective antenna and couples this amplified signal to the SDU.
For detailed RF insertion losses refer to Section 2 C. To ensure these requirements are
met, some installations need the SDU to be installed in close proximity to the antenna
subsystem components or the use of low loss coaxial cable.
The total loss between the DLNA and the SDU must be in the range 6 to 25 dB. If the
RF cable type being used for a short cable length is less than 6 dB, an attenuator must be
fitted to ensure the required loss is achieved.

Product InterModulation (PIM)
Specific care should be taken to ensure that the RF cables and connectors do not produce
intermodulation products at levels higher than those specified in ARINC 781.
F.
VSWR
The Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) of all RF cables should be 1.2:1 or better.
G.
Torque Settings
The cables are to be tightened to the torque settings recommended by the cable
manufacturer.
H.
Cleaning
Refer to Section 6.5 for cleaning.
3.8. BONDING REQUIREMENTS
The bonding of all units to the airframe must not exceed 20 milliohms. However some
aircraft manufacturers or design/installation organisation may require a lower value than
the recommended 20 milliohms.
NOTE:
©
To assure proper grounding of the TFS system, the surface of the
mountings and units must be clean bare metal.

FAULT ISOLATION
5.1. BITE FUNCTION
The primary purpose of BITE is to assist aircraft maintenance personnel in the correct
maintenance of avionics equipment in a cost effective manner. The BITE does not
contribute to the required function of the TFS system, but makes it easier to test or debug
it.
The SDU controls the TFS system BITE. It collects BITE information from other LRU,
and can request other LRU to run tests. The BITE automatically detects failures,
providing a mechanism to discover erroneous behaviour of TFS system components.
Fault information is reported to a local maintenance system (e.g. CFDS system or other
OMS), and this information is made available to maintenance personnel by means of
discretes and/or LED on the SDU front panel. Failures can also be reported to a
dedicated local maintenance function through Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP) and the Management Information Base (MIB).
The System BITE failure data is stored in the SDU within a Non-Volatile Memory
(NVM) area. The BITE operates at various levels as indicated in Figure 6-1.

Fault information can be displayed from an OMS/CFDS when the aircraft is so
equipped. Faults that occur at anytime are stored in fault memory and reported to the
OMS or CFDS.
B.
BITE
An operator can verify the operational serviceability of the SDU and SCM by means of
a set of testing facilities installed within the SDU. The SDU performs two distinctive
types of test:
©
•
A Power-On Self Test (POST) is automatically activated at SDU start
up.
•
An Person-Activated Self Test (PAST) can be initiated by an operator by
depressing the Test push button located on the front panel of the SDU,
(see Figure 2-5 item 17). PAST can also be initiated from the CFDS.

2.
Indicted means that there is an equipment failure such that Registration
/ Log-On is not attempted.
3.
In the event of a Bus Inactive Failure, the ‘Data Bus’ LED illuminates
Red and the appropriate LRU status LEDs illuminate Amber, e.g. if the
SDU reports that the Antenna to SDU bus is inactive or the Antenna
reports that the SDU to Antenna bus is inactive, then the ‘Data Bus’ LED
illuminates Red and the SDU and Antenna LED illuminates Amber
4.
This is a special case. There will be frequent legitimate occurrences of
IRS being switched off whilst On-Ground and even after an IRS is
switched on; there is an alignment period, during which the Nav Data is
invalid. Under these circumstances, the only action is to illuminate the
‘Data Bus’ LED Amber, irrespective of whether in On-Ground or In-Air
state
5.
The ORT/Configuration LED illuminate Amber in the following
circumstances:
Type 1 ORT Synchronization Minor Failure – Secure ORT within SCM
- If the Secure ORT read from the SCM is not valid and if ‘local copy’
Secure ORT is valid.
Type 4 ORT Synchronization Failure - User ORT within SCM - If the
User ORT read from the SCM is not valid AND if ‘local copy’ User ORT
is valid.
Type 5 ORT Synchronization Failure - User ORT in SDU - if SDU User
ORT is invalid.
6.
The ORT/Configuration LED illuminates Red in the following
circumstances:
Type 1 ORT Synchronization Major Failure - Secure ORT within SCM
If the Secure ORT read from the SCM is not valid AND if ‘local copy’
Secure ORT is not valid
Type 2 ORT Synchronization
Type 3 ORT Synchronization Failure - Secure ORT in SDU that is
integral part of SW - if SDU Secure ORT is invalid.

List of Explanatory Notes for Table 5.2:
E.
1.
The ‘Steady Ground’ state corresponds to the equivalent LED Red state,
except for the Sat Link #1 and #2 Not Available discretes, for which the
‘Steady Ground’ state corresponds to the equivalent LED Off or Amber
states.
2.
The System Failed discrete ‘Steady Ground’ state corresponds to one or
more LEDs being illuminated red.
3.
SDU Failed discrete only to be asserted in the event that an SDU H/W or
S/w failure is detected, not in the event that there is an ORT or
configuration straps parity failure. In the latter case, only the System
Failed discrete should be asserted.
4.
SCM Failed discrete only to be asserted in the event that an SCM H/W
failure is detected, not in the event that there is an ORT failure. In the
latter case, only the System Failed discrete should be asserted.
5.
The Bus Failed discrete provides no indication of activity on the
Ethernet buses.
Service Availability Discrete Lamps
The Service Availability Discretes have open circuit and ground states that are capable
of driving incandescent lamps connected to an external supply.
Typically, each discrete is fed via one or two (in parallel) incandescent lamps to an
aircraft 28 Vdc supply. This 28 Vdc supply can be dimmed to approximately 14 Vdc for
night time operation. The 28 Vdc is a nominal value and can vary as defined in RTCA/
DO-160E A typical incandescent lamp would be 28Vdc, 20mA.
Each Service Availability Discrete is able to continuously sink at least 50mA and be
capable of holding a cold inrush current of up to 490mA during the first 10 millisecond
of activation as per ARINC 781.
F.
CFDS/ARINC 604 BITE
The SDU reports BITE status and faults to the CFDS using ARINC 429, 350 series
words.
The SDU software can raise a fault, a fault may or may not indict a particular Resource,
many detailed faults may indict a single resource.
Resources also have a hierachy defined, so a tier 1 resource may ripple up to a tier 2
