FIRST AID IN CASE OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

The Expire Air method of artificial respiration is recommended for use in any case of
electrical shock. It is comparatively simple and produces the best and quickest results when
correctly applied.
Start without delay but do not touch the victim until the circuit is broken.
1 Break the electrical circuit by switching OFF or, if not possible, PROTECT YOURSELF
with dry insulating material and pull the victim clear of the conductor
2 Lay the patient on his back and, if on slope, have the stomach slightly
lower than the chest
3 Make a brief inspection of the mouth and throat and ensure that they are
clear of obvious obstruction
4 Give the patient’s head the maximum backwards tilt, so that the chin is
prominent, the mouth closed and the neck stretched to give clear airway -
fig. A
5 Inhale, open your mouth wide, make an airtight seal over the nose of
the patient and blow. The operator’s cheek or the hand supporting the chin
can be used to seal the patient’s lips - Fig. B, or if the nose is blocked,
open the patient’s mouth using the hand supporting the chin; open your
mouth wide and make an airtight seal over his mouth and blow - Fig. C. This
may also be used as an alternative to the mouth to nose technique provided
that the nose is held closed
6 After blowing, turn your head to watch for chest movement, whilst
inhaling deeply in readiness for blowing again - Fig. D
7 If the chest does not rise, check that the patient’s mouth and throat are
free of obstruction and the head is tilted backward as far as possible.
Ensure that the tongue is not blocking the throat. Blow again
Send for medical assistance if possible.

1 General information
This manual describes the NORMARC 12 element/single-frequency ILS Localizer Antenna
System. Installation requirements and procedures are described in the NORMARC 7000 ILS
Installation and Commissioning Handbook.
1.1 Antenna system

The antenna system comprises:
• 12 log-periodic antenna elements (LPDA) installed on a mechanical structure
• Antenna Distribution Unit (ADU), including a Cable and Antenna Fault Monitor circuit
• Monitor Combining Unit (MCU)
• CSB feed cable and SBO feed cable from the NORMARC 7000 cabinet
• 12 antenna feed cables of equal electrical length
• 12 monitor cables of equal electrical length from antenna probes
• 2 monitor signal cables from the MCU to the NORMARC7000 cabinet
• 1 set of Cable Ducts
• 1 Near Field Monitor installed on a mechanical structure
• 2 Obstruction Lights
An overall assembly of the Antenna System (left half) is shown in drawing no. 16874A3
(17849A3 on bedplate foundation) w/parts list 2748. The other six antennas are located
symmetrically on the right hand side.
Drawings 16376A3 identify the mast support details depending of mast height, 16876A3
identifies the framework details, 16857A3 shows the Cable Duct assembly and 16361A3
shows the assembly of the ADU/MCU protection cover.
Drawing no. 16939A3 shows the overall installation diagram.

The obstruction lights assembly is shown in drawing 11463A3 and should be connected to
mains power according to wiring diagram 6384A4.
All aluminium structures have been designed to break, distort and yield readily when
subjected to the sudden collision forces of a 3000 kg aircraft with a speed of 140 km/h or
moving at the ground at 50 km/h. Ref. ICAO Frangible Aids Study Group (FASG) “Interim
Guidance on Frangibility”
All drawings mentioned in this document are attached in Appendix 1.
1.2 Antenna element construction

The Localizer antenna element is protected by a Glass fibre Reinforced Polyester (GRP)
cover plus dipole cover tubes of Polypropylene (PP).
The antenna construction is made of 65 mm diameter aluminium tubes, the rear support
bracket leg is welded to the antenna, and the front support bracket is connected to the
antenna by use of a GRP tube. The rear antenna leg (tube) is equipped with a special
breakpoint.
The 110 to 140 mm space from the end of the end cover to the antenna element acts as a
deformation zone. The end covers (165x250 mm) are curved which reduces damages on
aircraft nose / cockpit / wings in case of impact. See Figure 1-1.

1.3 Mast construction

The Localizer masts are made of 75 mm diameter aluminium tubes, flanged to the antennas
and to the supporting framework, flanges are welded to the tubes. The masts are stabilized
by use of L-shaped bars.
1.4 Performance and radiation patterns
The performance of the antenna system can be expressed as far field signal patterns and
DDM and SDM patterns.

1.6 Near Field Monitor Antenna

The near field antenna consists of a two-elements antenna installed on the extended runway
centre line. The recommended distance between the antenna system and the NF antenna is
100m; minimum 50m. The height is typically 1 – 1.5 m above local ground (below Annex 14
limits for obstacle clearance). The antenna is connected to a coaxial cable buried in the
ground in a pipe and connected to the localizer cabinet inside the shelter.
The purpose of the antenna is to monitor and detect antenna elements faults that are not
detected by the integral monitor, for example antenna misalignments. In addition the near
field antenna should discover intruder traffic such as vehicles passing or parked in front of
the antenna system.

2 Technical description
2.1 Antenna assembly

The antenna array comprises twelve log-periodic antenna elements (LPDA) arranged as
shown in drawing no. 16874A3.
2.1.1 Mechanical description

Each antenna element (LPDA) is mounted on two vertical masts supported by diagonal
stays. The entire mast assembly is mounted on a framework consisting of two channel-
beams braced by an angle-section beam. The mast assembly and framework are aluminium.
2.1.2 Frangibility
There are three types of mechanical fuses (breakpoints) in the antenna/mast construction
(Figure 2-1). One is on the diagonal stay bars parallel to the runway, a second is on the rear
antenna leg and a third is on the front GRP/Aluminium leg. In addition the heat afflicted
zones (HAZ) caused by welding of the flanges act as weak points.

21450/Rev.3.2/27-Jun-05
2.3 Antenna Distribution Unit DIA 1406A (ADU)

The antenna distribution unit DIA 1406A (see layout drawing. 17045A4) consists of a
microstrip circuit board mounted in a hinged frame, cables for interconnections and a
variable phase shifter (PH1) provided for fine-adjustment of the course alignment. The
components are housed in a stainless steel cabinet suitable for outdoor installation. All
external connections are at the bottom of the cabinet.
2.3.2 Electrical description

The signal distribution is shown in drawing no. 16828A3. The CSB input and the SBO input
are split and combined in various quadrature hybrids to form the required signal distribution
scheme given in Table 1-1.
A plug in fixed attenuator, A1A, fitted in the SBO signal path between hybrid H1A and H2A is
used to adjust the SBO distribution depending of the Course Sector. The value of the
attenuator is 0dB for CS ≤ 4.5º and 1.9dB for CS > 4.5º.
An adjustable phase shifter with range ±10° is fitted in the signal path for antenna 6 (A6) to
provide a fine adjustment facility (typically ±2.5 µA) of the course alignment (CL). Drawings
16861A4 and 16829A3 shows the interconnection and circuit diagrams.
TEST carries a low level test signal from antenna 6 (A6) coupled by a capacitor.
2.3.3 Cable and Antenna Fault Monitor Circuit (DC LOOP)

The function of this circuit is to trigger an executive DC LOOP alarm, if one or more antenna
cables or monitor cables are losing connection to its antenna. The Electrical Circuit is shown
in drawing no. 16829A3. Cable connector information is given in drawing no. 16862A4 and
the table below. This cable is fitted between the antenna distribution unit and the NORMARC
7000 cabinet.

2.3.4 Power distribution components

The power dividers are four-port quadrature-phase lumped elements type. In the block
diagram drawing no. 16828A3 the power dividers are designated H1 to H6, H1A to H5A and
H1D to H5D. The H-types are equal power output dividers and the HxA/D -types are unequal
power output dividers. Various output power ratios are given below.
Power Power output Power Power output

Divider ratio (dB) Divider ratio (dB)
H5A 9.3 H2D 2.7
H4A 2.8 H1D 3.3
H3A 9.6 H1-H6 0.0
H2A 1.2
H1A 2.2
H5D 10.5
H4D 4.8
H3D 11.1
Table 2-2 Power dividers output power ratio

For Course Sectors in the order of 4.0° and narrow, the SDM could be more than the
maximum 65 per cent. For such installations, the power divider H1D should have an output
power ratio of 4.4 dB. This will result in a higher CSB signal to the two antenna elements in
the centre (6 and 7) and hence, a lower SDM.

21450/Rev.3.2/27-Jun-05
2.4 Monitoring Combining Unit MOA 1407A (MCU)

The Monitoring Combining Unit MOA 1407A consist of a microstrip board mounted in a
hinged frame, a phase shifter for course line adjustment (PH1) a phase shifter for course
sector adjustment (PH2) and coaxial cables for interconnections. The components are
housed in a stainless steel cabinet for outdoor installation. All external connections are at the
bottom of the cabinet. See Outline drawing no. 17046A4.
2.4.2 Electrical description

The MCU is combining signals transmitted from each antenna into course line (CL) and
course sector (CS), 0% DDM (0 µA), 15.5% DDM (150 µA) 150 Hz dominance, respectively,
equal to the values in the far field. These two RF signals are fed to the monitoring system,
demodulated and processed into DDM and SDM. In addition, the CL DDM parameter is
subtracted from the CS DDM parameter to form the displacement sensitivity parameter (DS)
in the monitor. The adjustable phase shifters are provided for adjustment to standard output
values, i.e. zero DDM (0 µA) for CL and 15.5% DDM (150 µA) for CS. See Circuit diagram
drawing no. 16865A3 and Block diagram 16864A3.
The phase shifter comprises two overlaying concentric microstrip-lines, which form a
transmission line. By turning one of the microstrip-lines, the total length of the transmission
line varies. The maximum variation is ±10°.
The signal samples from the antennas are fed to input connectors M1…M12, then split into
three equal parts by 0° signal power splitters. One part is combined to result in the course
line output (CL), all signals in the same phase. The other two parts are combined with
progressive de-phasing to result in the course sector (CS) output.
Drawing no. 16872A4 shows the interconnection diagram.

The antenna is a COMROD AV42-110 half-wave dipole antenna with reflector. Weather
protection is achieved by embedding all conductors in glass fibre reinforced tubes. Cavities
are filled with polyurethane foam.

21450/Rev.3.2/27-Jun-05
3 Operation
3.1 Mechanical, antenna system
The first commissioning flight check will confirm (by primary parameters within tolerances)
whether the antenna system is correctly mechanically aligned or not. When possible
deviations have been corrected, there are no further mechanical adjustments.
3.2 Electrical, antenna system

The first commissioning flight check will confirm whether the antenna system is correctly
electrically adjusted or not, i.e. that the monitoring combining unit is operating correctly, by
returning standard signals to the monitoring system.
3.3 Antenna Distribution Unit

3.3.1 A6 phase shifter
In the antenna distribution unit there is an adjustable phase shifter inserted into A6 path. The
effect of adjusting this phase shifter is a course alignment change only.
This phase shifter is sometimes adjusted during flight commissioning procedures and shall
not be further readjusted. If a change of alignment has been detected at routine flight checks,
the electrical reason for the observed change shall be determined.
3.3.2 A6 signal test connector

This test point (TEST) carries a sampled antenna 6 feeding signal, comprising SBO and CSB
in quadrature phase relationship, for course and clearance signal. A phase change of 10°
SBO relative CSB represents a change of 5.2% DDM (50 µA) at the test point for a CS of 5°.
This test point may be utilised for routine maintenance checks.
3.4 Monitoring combining unit

3.4.1 CL phase shifter
The CL phase shifter is normally adjusted to produce zero DDM (0 µA) at the CL signal
output during after course line establishment during flight commissioning procedures. The CL
phase shifter should not be readjusted at routine flight checks. However, adjustment may be
carried out during a major type flight inspection.
3.4.2 CS phase shifter

The CS (DS) phase shifter is normally adjusted to produce 15.5% DDM (150 µA) at the CS
(DS) signal output after course sector width establishment during flight commissioning
procedures. The CS (DS) phase shifter should not be readjusted at routine flight checks.
However, adjustment may be carried out during a major type flight inspection.

There are no operating activities with the near field antenna.

21450/Rev.3.2/27-Jun-05
4 Maintenance
4.1 Preventive maintenance
4.1.1 Annual visual inspection

Carry out visual inspection in the antenna distribution unit and monitoring combining unit.
Also inspect antenna connectors underneath the housing. Look for loose connectors. Look
for humidity and corrosion. Carefully clean away dust. (Old layer of dust may become
conductive in humid environment). Inspect the near field antenna. Remove dust and check
that the male and female connectors are not loose. Check that the antenna is mechanically
stable.
4.2 Corrective maintenance

If a signal parameter failure has occurred it is first necessary to determine if the fault is in the
transmitting signal path including cables and antennas, or in the monitor pick-up signal path
including antenna pick-up loop or monitor cables. This can be achieved by performing test
activities such as:
• Inspect the DC-loop RMM monitor window values. (See description in 4.2.1
below)
• Observing disagreement between CL and NF monitor values
• Perform a near field DDM plot according to routine maintenance and compare the
results with previous records
• Antenna return loss measurements
4.2.1 Cable and Antenna fault identification

During no-fault conditions the DC-loop values returned in the RMM monitor window1, are
typically 38-39. If an antenna signal path is open the DC-loop circuit will generate a DC-loop
alarm in the monitor system. The returned value is increasing to values from about 46 to 70
depending on antenna system and which antenna is possibly open circuit. Table 4-1 shows
typical alarm values and which cells in the matrix are associated with a particular antenna.
For example a returned value of 59 (Mon 1 and Mon 2) in channel DL1 while all other values
are 38-39 means that Antenna no. 8 signal path is not ok. In order to be sure that e.g. A8 is
associated with DL1 in the first place, a comparing check with the DC-loop table from the
commissioning record document should be done, in addition compare also the returned
value with the present value. (The pattern seen in Table 4-1 depends on cable connection
terminations from the antenna distribution network and the ILS cabinet.)
4.2.2 CL, NF Disagreement

If the CL monitor DDM reading is significant different from the NF DDM value (NF value
normal) a conclusion may be that a fault may be present in the monitoring signal path.
4.2.3 Near Field Plot

A near field plot pattern significantly different from the reference plot may indicate a fault in
an antenna signal path.

4.2.4 Antenna return loss measurement

Measuring antenna return loss may give a good indication if a suspected antenna is ok or
not. The best tool to measure return loss is a network analyser in swept frequency mode,
sweeping from 100 to 120 MHz. Value less than 20 dB within the ILS Localizer frequency
band (108.10MHz – 111.95MHz) may indicated a fault condition.

21450/Rev.3.2/27-Jun-05
5 Adjustments procedure
5.1 General
5.1.1 Object
This procedure provides a method to align the antenna system mechanically as well as
electrically after mechanical installation. When the procedure has been completed the
antenna system is fit for commissioning flight calibration. In addition this procedure may be
used in parts in order to restore signal quality after replacing vital components such as
antenna elements, cables or signal networks. In such cases a new flight calibration may be
required.
5.1.2 Discussion
It is essential to mechanically align the antenna system quite accurately to point along the
runway centreline. For example a misalignment of 0.02° from the 90° angle will result in 1.05
metres displacement of the course line at the runway threshold when the distance to the
localizer antenna system is 3000 metres. This equals 0.155 %DDM (1.5 µA) displacement at
the centreline.
Electrically, a CSB imbalance of 0.155 %DDM (1.5 µA) results in 1.05 metre course line
displacement at the threshold.
5.1.3 Test equipment required

The following test equipment is required:
1. Theodolite for antenna positioning relative runway centreline

2. Spirit level for antenna mast vertical alignments
3. Vector voltmeter including four-port directional coupler
4. Network Analyser (optional for antenna return loss measurement)
5. PIR (NORMARC 3710B) with portable antenna and 20 - 30 dB attenuator
6. Test accessories such as dummy loads, test cables and coaxial adaptors
The uncertainty (inaccuracy) of the test equipment must be taken into account when the
measurement values are analysed.
5.1.4 Conditions
The localizer cabinet shall be aligned (calibrated) and producing CSB and SBO course, CSB
and SBO clearance signals into dummy loads. RF signals from the cabinet may be used for
the antenna system alignments.
5.2 Mechanical alignments

5.2.1 Right angle points with reference to runway centreline
The alignment of the antenna array perpendicular to the runway centreline should be carried
out to an accuracy of 0.02°.
This corresponds to within 6 mm accuracy at positions antenna 1 and antenna 12. Using a
theodolite mark the right angle positions of the antenna foundation.

21450/Rev.3.2/27-Jun-05
5.2.2 Spacing distance between antenna elements

Check that the spacing between each antenna element is in accordance to drawing
16874A3. Tolerance: ±5 mm.
5.2.3 Vertical alignment of antenna element support masts

On each support mast for the antenna element check spirit level that mast is vertically
aligned in both planes.
5.2.4 Horizontal alignment of antenna elements/support masts

If slabs or bedplate foundation for some reason are not even aluminium shims plates (3 mm
thick) are provided to facilitate horizontal adjustments. The shims plates should be placed
between the framework support plates and the foundation nearest to the antenna mast
affected.
5.3 Electrical alignments, cable phasing

5.3.1 CSB and SBO cables
Course TX cables
The CSB and SBO cable between the cabinet and MCU shall be of equal electrical length.
Apply a vector voltmeter or network analyser in a test set-up as in Figure 5-1.
Measure open cable return phase for each cable.
On the CSB cable, normalize to zero phase and measure the return phase for the SBO
cable. The cable pair shall be matched within ±4.0° return phase which is equal to ±2.0° true
phase.
Clearance TX cables
Repeat the procedure 5.3.1 for CLR TX CSB and SBO cables.

at the BNC input connector on the PIR.)

21450/Rev.3.2/27-Jun-05
Adjust Course SBO phase shifter in the Cabinet (associated with TX to air) to obtain 0.0%
DDM (0 µA) reading.
Repeat the phasing procedure for the other transmitter.
Switch off the course transmitter.

With the clearance transmitter on repeat the phasing procedure, now adjusting the clearance
SBO phase shifter associated with TX to air.
5.3.3 Antenna pair phasing

Note! Make sure that the TX/modulator used is optimally calibrated.
Switch off the clearance transmitter.
1 Connect the antenna cables A1 and A12 to the ADU outputs marked A1 and A12
respectively
2 Connect all other ADU outputs to dummy load. Use the PIR (NM3710) with portable
test antenna
3 On the runway establish a point officially marked as the centreline for DDM
measurements. Ascertain that the measurement point is not affected by reflected
signals upsetting the direct received signals from the antenna pairs. Moving the test
antenna a few metres back and fourth while observing the DDM reading can test this.
If the value is not changing more than approximately 0.1% DDM (1 µA) then the
measurement position is OK
4 Take a note of the DDM reading first from antenna pair A1/A12
5 Connect pair A2/A11 to ADU outputs A2/A11 and disconnect pair A1/A12, dummy
load A1/A12 ADU
6 Take a note of the DDM reading
7 Carry out this procedure until all antenna pairs DDM readings have been noted
8 Depending on the noted results alternative actions should be taken
Alternative 1
Most or all DDM values show the same sign (polarity). Highest values DDM from A1/A12,
A2/A11, then less magnitudes from inner pairs. With all antennas connected DDM is a few
microamperes with the same polarity.
This result indicates that the antenna array may be mechanically misaligned or the ADU is
optimised for another frequency. For mechanical misalignment, move the antenna framework
linearly until zero DDM is obtained along the runway centreline. For ADU use for another
frequency, follow procedure for Alternative 3.
Alternative 2
DDM values are randomly spread as negative and positive values. Values are equal or less
than those shown in Table 5-1. With all antennas connected DDM is varying not more than
0.1% DDM (1 µA).
This result indicates that the antenna system is correctly mechanically aligned. No further
actions are necessary.
Alternative 3
DDM values are randomly spread as negative and positive values. Values are equal or larger
than those shown in Table 5-1. With all antennas connected DDM is varying not more than
0.1% DDM (1 µA).
This result indicates that one or more pairs may be slightly out of phase. Compare the actual
out-of-tolerance value with value in Table 5-1. Determine if an antenna cable should be
trimmed.

21450/Rev.3.2/27-Jun-05
Alternative 4
DDM values are showing a combination of alternatives above.
Determine if mechanical alignment should be improved in combination with cable trimming.
• If the DDM reading is positive (150 Hz dominance) the antenna cable at the right hand
side (A7...A12) should be trimmed
The sensitivity of DDM versus electrical phase error of 2° (5° CS) is given in the table below.
The relationship is linear for other phase errors.
Pair % DDM µA (CDI)

A1/A12 0.96 9.9
A2/A11 0.82 8.5
A3/A10 0.65 6.7
A4/A9 0.51 5.3
A5/A8 0.36 3.7
A6/A7 0.48 5.0
Table 5-1 DDM sensitivity as a function of electrical phase error equal to 2°
Alternative method is to insert a double male / female N-connector (which is 10°) in one of
the two signal paths. The DDM reading will show the result of a 10° longer signal path, and
can be the basis to calculate the required cable trimming.
Cable trimming length: 6.2 mm/°.
5.3.4 Antenna cable / ADU phase

Each antenna signal path through the ADU, antenna cable and antenna element shall be of
electrically equal length. If the phase error for a single pair is larger than 10°, first check the
two relevant antenna cables given in paragraph.5.3.4.1. If the cables are OK, check the
antenna elements by interchanging two neighbour antenna elements. If the phase error is
equal or less than 10°, trim cable lengths according to Table 5-1.
5.3.4.1 Check of antenna cable length if phase error larger than 10°
This may be checked using the following procedure.
Apply a vector voltmeter or network analyser. Normalize antenna cable (A1) (leftmost seen
from rear) return phase as 0° reference phase.
Measure return phase for each of the remaining antenna cables (A2…A12).
Tolerance: ±2.0° true electrical cable length.
See measurement set-up diagram in Figure 5-1.
5.3.5 Phase and amplitude transfer measurement

Connect each antenna cable and monitor cable to antenna element load and source
respectively. Apply a vector voltmeter or network analyser in a test set-up as in Figure 5-2.

Measure relative transfer phase and amplitude for each Antenna-to-Monitor cable signal path

If a particular signal path measures more than –3°, the associated monitor cable should be
trimmed. (On the other hand if a signal path measures more than +3° as the highest positive
value, all other monitor cables should be trimmed.)
Amplitude tolerance: ±1.5 dB. This tolerance includes the effect of mutual coupling between
the antenna elements plus the uncertainty of the test instrument used. If this amplitude
tolerance is far exceeded a possible failure in the monitor loop is indicated.

21450/Rev.3.2/27-Jun-05
5.4 Antenna return loss

Apply a vector voltmeter in a test set-up shown in Figure 5-3. Measure return loss for each
antenna element.
Tolerance: 20 dB minimum.
Alternatively use a network analyser in swept frequency mode (100 MHz – 120 MHz), which
is a better choice for antenna return loss measurement.

5.5 Course sector width adjustment

There are two ways to pre-adjust the required course sector width (CS):
• DDM/SDM measurement of ADU antenna feed outputs with corresponding course

SBO setting. (See Section 5.5.1.)
• DDM field check with corresponding course SBO setting. (See Section 5.5.2.)
Preferably both methods should be carried out and compared.
Theory
At each antenna feed output at the ADU the measured DDM and SDM is a result of the SBO
to CSB ratio according to the formulas:
2 ⋅ SBO 2 ⋅ SBO
if cos γ ≤ 0.4 DDM = cos γ SDM = 0.4
CSB CSB
2 ⋅ SBO 2 ⋅ SBO
if cos γ ≥ 0.4 DDM = 0.4 SDM = cos γ
CSB CSB
where:
• CSB is a fixed value (in relative volts)
• SBO is adjustable by the SBO attenuator in the cabinet
• γ is 0° when the 90° stub is inserted into the SBO
For a specific course sector width (CS) of the antenna system a set of corresponding DDM
and SDM values exists unique for each antenna output.
For CS = 5°:

21450/Rev.3.2/27-Jun-05
A3 DDM = 37.0% (-382 µA) 90Hz dominance SDM = 40.0%

For other CS values use the formula:
DDM (or SDM )( 4°) ⋅ 5°

DDM (or SDM ) A(n) =
CS
Example
A4 DDM for CS = 6°:
29.3% ⋅ 5
DDM ( A 4) = = 24.4%

5.5.1 Procedure 1 DDM measurements

1 Switch off the clearance transmitter. Insert the 90° phasing stub into the course SBO
path. Connect a directional coupler with a 50Ω load to antenna output connector A3
2 Connect the PIR (use 20 dB attenuator at NM3710 BNC input connector) to the
directional coupler's forward port
3 Adjust the SBO attenuator (associated with the TX to air) until the DDM/SDM value
equals the previously calculated value for the CS
4 Move the directional coupler to A4, A5 and compare readings with calculated values
5 If measured DDM/SDM is lower than the calculated values for A4, A5 then increase
the SBO power, or vice versa, until a fairly good matching set of values are obtained
6 Adjust the SBO attenuator for the other TX to the same setting
7 Remove the 90° phasing stub
5.5.2 Procedure 2 Field DDM check

1 Set the localizer to normal radiation (clearance transmitter on). From the centreline of
the opposite threshold locate points perpendicular to the CL 107 metres to both sides
of the runway. Use the PIR (NM3710) with portable antenna and measure DDM at
these points. The readings should be close to 15.5% (-150 µA) at the 90 Hz side and
15.5% (+150 µA) at the 150 Hz side. However, some asymmetry may be expected
due to ground properties, reflections and tolerances in the antenna system. The SBO
setting will influence the measured DDM values
2 Check the CL DDM at two or three positions in order to establish an average value.
Expected value: 0.0% ±0.2% DDM (±2 µA)

21450/Rev.3.2/27-Jun-05
5.6 Monitoring Combining Unit adjustments

5.6.1 Course line
Connect the PIR to the CL output connector of the MCU.
Adjust the CL phase shifter to obtain 0.0% DDM (0 µA).
5.6.2 Course sector

Connect the PIR to the CS output of the MCU.
Adjust the CS phase shifter to obtain a reading of 15.5% DDM (150 µA).
5.7 Near Field Monitor adjustments

The exact lateral position of the near field monitor antenna cannot be determined until after
the flight check has been completed, due to possible mechanical re-alignment of the antenna
array. After the antenna system has been flight calibrated, move the NF antenna until the
DDM is 0.0% (0 µA) measured with the PIR.
