1.2 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

1.2.1 CDU--XLS System

The CDU--XLS is an integrated, long--range, multi--sensor navigation and frequency management


system comprised of the CDU--XLS Control Display Unit (CDU), Navigation Management Unit
(NMU), an optional Receiver Processor Unit (RPU), if VLF/OMEGA is required, and a Data
Transfer Unit (DTU). The CDU has an internal GPS receiver with three antenna options. The
optional VLF/OMEGA RPU comes with a choice of either an E--Field or H--Field antenna.

A. Navigation Capabilities

In addition to conventional selected course/waypoint area navigation, the CDU--XLS


provides direct point--to--point navigation along geodesic routes from selected origin
and destination waypoints. Other navigation capabilities include:

1. Navigation from flight plans which allows the use of published routes or other flight
paths more complex than direct point--to--point navigation.

2. Parallel track flight which allows flight at a selected distance from and parallel to
the originally selected track.

3. Vertical navigation along ascent and descent profiles whose end points are related
to flight plan waypoints. Please note that VNAV is advisory only.

4. The ability to capture the coordinates of a pilot defined waypoint and produce a
labeled waypoint.

5. The ability to designate waypoints by identifier, latitude and longitude, or by radial


and distance, relative to a selected reference point.

1.2.2 Frequency Management

The Frequency Management capability of the CDU--XLS provides complete control of COMM,
NAV, ADF, and DME frequencies and Transponder IDENT. Selected frequencies for all active
systems are displayed on the Control Display Unit (CDU).

1.2.3 Database

The CDU--XLS is an “earth--oriented” navigation system. In other words, it determines its location
in terms of latitude and longitude. Positional data inputs to the system must also be defined by

latitude and longitude or referenced to a point on the ground whose latitude and longitude are
known. The data base in the NMU can be loaded with an extensive library of navaid data, which
includes the latitude and longitude of the following:

A. VHF navaids including all collocated VOR/DME ground stations, VOR only ground
stations, DME only ground stations, VORTAC, TACAN, and ILS/DME stations.

B. Airport Reference Points of all airports with hard surfaced runways with a length of
2000 feet or more as well as airport outer markers and runway thresholds.

C. High and Low Altitude Waypoints, Standard Instrument Departure (SID) waypoints,
Standard Terminal Arrival Route (STAR) waypoints, Approach Intersections, and
Non--precision Approaches.

1.2.4 ARINC Interfaces

The CDU--XLS may be interfaced to ARINC 704 IRS, ARINC 571 INS, or ARINC 743 GPS sensors.

1.2.5 VLF/Omega

The CDU--XLS was originally certified with optional VLF/Omega sensors. Since the Omega
network was decommissioned in 1997, VLF/Omega information in this manual should be ignored.
The data base loaded into the NMU at the time of manufacture includes current worldwide navaids
and Airport Reference Points for airports with runways of 2000 feet or greater. CDU--XLS System
owners are shipped data base revisions every 28 days. The first year revision subscription cost
is included in the purchase price of the system, and begins at the date of warranty registration.
Additional revision service may be purchased for an additional fee.

1.7 LICENSE REQUIREMENTS

There are no license requirements for the CDU--XLS Flight Management System.

1.8 INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS

FAR Part 25.1529 Instructions for Continued Airworthiness is met per the following instructions:

A. The removal of the CDU--XLS is on the condition of failure. There is no required


maintenance. Suggested maintenance is covered in Section 1.9 of this manual.

1.9 SUGGESTED MAINTENANCE

A. The NiCad batteries located within the NMU provide power to memory and the Real
Time Clock (RTC) when the units are turned off. The first indication that the batteries
are nearing the end of life is that Initialization page displayes the incorrect time.
Incorrect time will increase the time required for the initial GPS satellite acquisition.
Approximately one month after the Real Time Clock begins to be incorrect, MEM
FAIL and CNFG DATA CHANGED messages may appear, indicating flight plans,
parallax adjustments, and the configuration module checksum may be lost. Flight
plans may still be entered manually, and the GNS--XLS will still read the configuration
module correctly. It is strongly recommended that the batteries be replaced within
one month of noticing the above symptom.

If the owner prefers to replace the batteries on a periodic maintenance schedule, the
suggested maintenance interval is two years. If a Battery Installation Date label is
not present, date of delivery may be used as the starting date.

The lithium Battery located within the CDU provides power to the GPS almanac
while power is turned off. Indication that the battery is nearing the end of life is that
the GPS almanac will be lost. Loss of the GPS almanac data will result in an
excepionally long period of time to acquire sufficient satellites to navigate following
each turn on or power cycle. It is strongly recommended that the battery be
replaced as soon as possible when this problem is identified.

If the owner prefers to replace the battery on periodic maintenance schedule, the
suggested maintenance interval is four years. If a Battery Installation Date label is
not present, date of delivery may be used as the start date.

B. The lamp which illuminates the LCD display on the CDU should be replaced every
6,500 hours of operation. Operation in excess of this interval may result in reduced
readability of the display in sunlight. Total failure of the lamp is also possible,
resulting in a dark display.

C. The lamp which illuminates the alpha--numeric keyboard should be replaced every
10,000 hours of operation. Operation in excess of this interval can result in an
inability to achieve the 1 Foot--Lambert level required for an undimmed keyboard.

D. All maintenance should be performed at an authorized service center.

HONEYWELL
CDU-XLS FLIGHT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

The CDU--XLS system installation will conform to standards designated by the customer, installing
agency, and existing conditions as to the unit location and type of installation. However, the
following suggestions should be carefully considered before installing your system.

2.2.2 Avionics Cooling Requirements for Panel Mounted Equipment

The most important contribution to improved reliability of all avionics equipment is to limit the
maximum operating temperature of the individual unit, whether panel or remote mounted. While
modern circuit designs consume less total energy, the heat dissipated per unit volume (Watts/
cubic inch) remains much the same due to contemporary high density packaging techniques.
While each individual unit may or may not require forced air cooling, the combined heat generated
by several units operating in a typical panel or rack, can significantly degrade the reliability of the
equipment. Consequently, the importance of providing forced air cooling to avionics equipment
mounted in either a panel or rack, is essential to the life span of the equipment. Adequate
provisions for cooling should be incorporated during the installation.

2.2.3 CDU INSTALLATION

2.2.3.1 Cooling Considerations

A. Make sure that the unit is installed in a location where the ambient temperatures are
--4°F to +131°F (--20°C to +55°C).

2.2.3.2 Installation Considerations

A. Select a mounting location that is within easy reach and clearly visible to the pilot
and which allows sufficient clearance at the rear of the unit for connectors and
cables. Refer to Figure 2--1 for screen visibility limitations.

2.2.8 OMEGA/VLF ANTENNA INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

OMEGA/VLF systems operate with relatively low signal--to--noise ratios and have only a short
period of time to identify and use each signal. Therefore, noise sources that will cause only
momentary interference with other systems may cause a complete loss of the OMEGA/VLF signal
in which case the system will revert to the dead reckoning mode. The types of noise of most
concern to OMEGA/VLF operation are P--Static interference and 400Hz noise sources.
The Omega/VLF system can utilize two different types of antennas. These two types of antennas
are the E--Field and the H--Field. Careful consideration should be given when selecting which type
of antenna should be used in the installation.
NOTE
The installing agency should contact AlliedSignal Commercial
Avionics Systems Product Support at (913) 782--0600 for
assistance in determining a usable OMEGA/VLF antenna location
for a particular aircraft. Normal business hours are 8:00AM to
5:00PM Central Time, Monday through Friday.

A. E--Field Antennas Interference Problems

E--Field type OMEGA/VLF antennas are primarily susceptible to P--Static interference


and are not significantly affected by 400Hz noise sources. P--Static interference is the
result of three effects:

1. Corona discharges from aircraft extremities. This effect is the result of an electrical
charge generated on the aircraft while it is passing through electrical fields
associated with thunderstorms or a frictional charge generated on the aircraft as it
passes through charging particles such as snow, rain, sand, or dust.

2. Streamer discharges from non--metallic surfaces as a result of frictional charging of


the surface. When the breakdown potential of the air is reached, a discharge will

HONEYWELL
CDU-XLS FLIGHT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

occur between either two unequally charged surfaces or from a charged surface to
a grounded surface.

3. Sparkover discharges from metallic surfaces that are electrically isolated from the
rest of the airframe. The isolated surface will develop a frictional charge that will
discharge itself to the rest of the airframe when the electrical potential of the air is
reached.

Figure 2--2 VLF Blade Antenna Preferred Location

Corona discharge interference may be minimized by the installation of static


dischargers which effectively reduce the electrical resistance of the aircraft to free
air and therefore reduce the discharge potential. Static dischargers should be
installed in accordance with the discharger manufacturer’s instructions for the
airframe in question. Streamer discharges may be minimized by applying a
conductive coating to all non--metallic surfaces and insuring that they are properly
bonded to the airframe. Conductive coatings applied to radomes must be carefully

CDU-XLS FLIGHT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

selected to insure proper transmission of radar signals. Sparkover may be


minimized by insuring that all areas of the aircraft skin are properly bonded to the
airframe. Bonding straps on control surfaces, access doors, etc., should be
inspected to insure that they are intact and meet manufacturer’s specifications. A
P--Static Tester may be used to check all surfaces for proper bonding.

Figure 2--3 VLF Blade Antenna Alternate Location

B. E--Field Antenna Options

The RPU has two different types of E--Field antenna systems. The first is a
stand--alone VLF blade antenna. This antenna is connected directly to the RPU and no
coupler or preamplifier is required.

The second type of E--Field antenna utilizes a VLF preamplifier or VLF


Coupler/Preamplifier that allows the use of a long wire antenna. The VLF preamplifier

Revision 4, April 2001 Page 2--9


10537I04.IDU
RELEASED FOR THE EXCLUSIVE USE BY: AIRCRAFT ELECTRONICS ASSOCIATION

HONEYWELL
CDU-XLS FLIGHT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

is available in one version that is used when the VLF has a separate long wire antenna.
The VLF Coupler/Preamplifier is used when the VLF shares a long wire sense antenna
with the ADF system in the aircraft. The VLF Coupler/Preamplifier is available in two
versions. Refer to Section I for a description of the versions of the VLF
Coupler/Preamplifier.

C. H--Field Antennas Interference Problems

H--Field OMEGA/VLF antennas are not significantly affected by P--Static interference


but are susceptible to magnetic fields generated by 400Hz signals in the aircraft
harness. All potential 400Hz noise sources should be inspected to ensure that they are
properly bonded and shielded and the antenna should be mounted as far from such
noise sources as possible.

Skin currents or ground loops may induce noise into the H--Field antenna and degrade
performance as well. Skin mapping may be necessary to determine a usable antenna
location. This technique consists of temporarily mounting the antenna in a given
location, applying power to all electrical equipment, and then checking signal reception.
It may be necessary to test several locations to determine the optimum antenna
configuration for a particular aircraft. It is important to ensure that ALL systems are on
during the reception checks. An overlooked system may cause unsatisfactory
OMEGA/VLF reception when that system is activated. Also, noise may induced if the
antenna baseplate is bonded to the airplane; therefore, it may be necessary to isolate
the H--Field antenna from the airframe at the mounting location. Details are specified in
subsection D. General Considerations.

D. H--Field Antenna Options

The RPU has two different types of H--Field antenna systems. Both systems require a
loop coupler to be used between the loop antenna and the RPU. One version of the
H--Field antenna has a center mounted connector. This version along with a loop
antenna housing assembly is used for mounting the antenna external to the aircraft.
The second version of H--Field antenna has the connector mounted on the end of the
unit. This version is used when the antenna is mounted internal to the aircraft.

2.2.9 GPS ANTENNA INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

The GPS antenna should be mounted on top of the fuselage near the cockpit and in the centerline
of the aircraft. Avoid mounting the antenna near any projections, and the tail of the aircraft, where
shadows could occur. It is recommended that there be a separation of at least 3 feet between the
GPS antenna and any VHF Comm antenna on the aircraft. Antenna baseplate must be level within
¦ 5° in both axes when the aircraft is in level flight.

NOTE
Before installation of the antenna, go through the bonding checklist
to assure a quiet installation.

The values given in this checklist are the maximum resistance between the item and
the primary structure.

The recommended bonding jumper for DC and low frequency AC (50 kHz) is braided
wire. For radio frequency greater than 50 kHz, use a flat metal strap with a
length--to--width ratio of 1. For brass and copper alloys the strap should be 0.025 inch
thick. For aluminum alloys the strap should be 0.040 inch thick.

B. VLF Loop Antenna/Loop Coupler Installation

1. Before a loop antenna is installed, the aircraft should be skin mapped to determine
the exact antenna location.

2. Place the loop antenna in the specified location. With all electrical equipment turned
on, verify signal reception. If reception is not satisfactory, move the antenna until
reception is acceptable.

NOTE

C. VLF E--Field

1. General

a) The VLF E--field (blade) antenna performance is adversely affected by


precipitation static pick up (P--static). To minimize P--static electrification, the
surfaces should be properly bonded using procedures in Section II.

b) Periodic inspections should be made of aircraft bonding devices since they are
subject to wear and breakage.

c) After major modification, painting, or repairs, inspect the control surfaces,


inspection plates, and drain masts to assure that proper metal--to--metal
contact is maintained.

2. Procedure to Minimize P--static

a) For corona discharge, install static discharger in the extremities of wings and
empennage surfaces, because these are critical in corona discharge control.
For aircraft with previously installed dischargers, check for breakage and
proper bonding. Replace broken dischargers and bond as required.

NOTE
Obtain the number and location of static dischargers recommended
for a particular aircraft from the airframe manufacturer to maximize
efficiency of the discharger set.

b) For streamer discharge reduction, use conductive paints on nonmetallic


surface areas such as plastic surfaces on aircraft bottom and frontal areas.

NOTE
Conductive paints may be mixed with outer coating or placed under
outer coating.

c) Coat plastic radomes with a conductive anti--static paint. Should be 1 to


100 M ohms per square area.

NOTE
Use radome paint as recommended in Table 1--3 of Section I
because the paint must have a resistance value low enough to bleed
off static charge but not low enough to render the radome
ineffective.

d) Avoid mounting the antenna near the forward section of the aircraft because
windshield streamering may occur.

3. For sparkover reduction (static sparking), locate and electrically bond external
conducting sections. Pay particular attention to the following areas:

NOTE
General bonding techniques are listed in publications such as FAA
AC43--13. In addition, aircraft manufacturers publish specific
bonding requirements and tolerances for their aircraft and should be
consulted.

Radome -- Bond to primary structure for low resistance discharge


path using a metal strip to attach the radome to primary structure
and/or external lightening diverter strips. Check radome for missing
screws or paint on screws. Replace missing screws and remove
paint as necessary for good metal--to--metal contact.

Make sure good metal--to--metal contact exists between diverter


strips, primary structure, and metal portion of the radome.

a) After painting, check the control surface, inspection plates, panels, and drain
masts to be sure that metal--to--metal contact has been maintained where
necessary. Resistance between metal doors, panels, etc. and primary structure
should be 0.1 ohm maximum.

b) Bond control surfaces to airframe with one or more bond straps. Resistance
should be 0.1 ohm maximum. Check bond straps periodically for wear or
breakage.

NOTE
If the bond strap is broken, static dischargers will be less effective on
that surface.

4. Make sure the interference source control methods shown in Table 2--1 have been
implemented.

INTERFERENCE SOURCE CONTROL METHOD


Control Discharge Static Dischargers
Streamer Discharger Conductive coatings on frontal insulating surfaces
Sparkover Careful bonding of all external isolated conducting objects

Table 2--1 Interference Source Control Methods

5. Ideally, the VLF E--Field antenna should be located on an up--slope area on the aft
bottom of aircraft. See Figure 2--2. If the antenna cannot be mounted as shown in
Figure 2--2 and must be installed on the top of the fuselage, install antenna in aft
section.

NOTE
The aft bottom location reduces or eliminates impact of P--static
particles on antenna.

6. If mounting as shown in Figure 2--2 is impossible, Figure 2--3 shows another option
for E--Field antenna mounting.

CAUTION
MAKE SURE THE ENTIRE ANTENNA MOUNTING AREA IS
CLEAN BARE METAL; OTHERWISE, THE ANTENNA MAY
BE IMPROPERLY BONDED.

7. After you have selected the location of the E--Field (blade) antenna, install
conductive gasket using the following steps.

not use sealant between conductive gasket, antenna, and the airframe.

2.2.11 GPS ANTENNA INSTALLATION

A. Antenna Location

1. Mount the GPS antenna on the centerline of the aircraft on the aircraft skin.

2. Mount the GPS antenna on the top of the aircraft, over the cockpit or on top of the
tail of the aircraft. See Figure 2--4.

NOTE
This location reduces the possibility of obstructing the satellite
signal because of shadowing.

SECTION III
SYSTEM PLANNING

3.0 INTRODUCTION

You will find information relative to the CDU--XLS system requirements, options available to the
system planner, and the electrical characteristics of the various interfaces in Section 3. You will
also find pin function lists and interconnect diagrams in this section.

Section 3 contains block diagrams and interconnect diagrams for the CDU--XLS system. Refer to
Figure 3--1 for the CDU--XLS System Block Diagram. There are several interconnect drawings for
popular equipments that interface to the CDU--XLS system. The installing agency should contact
Honeywell Aerospace Electronic Systems Product Support at 1--800--257--0726 for information
regarding the compatibility of equipment not listed in this manual. Normal business hours are 8:00
AM to 5:00 PM Central Time, Monday through Friday.

Section 3 is divided into major sections by interface type or major topic. Each major section
describes in detail the specifications for particular types of interfaces with your CDU--XLS system.
The general format used within each interface type section uses the following subsections:

3.X.1 Applicable Part Numbers


3.X.2 Function
3.X.3 Requirements and Limitations
3.X.4 Electrical Characteristics
3.X.5 Interface

3.0.1 Applicable Part Numbers Subsection Description

Information given in this section pertains only to the CDU--XLS Flight Management System using
Control Display Unit (CDU) part number 18420--0101--XXXX and Navigation Management Unit
(NMU) part number 14141--0624--XXXX. Refer to Figure 3--1 for a System Block Diagram of the
CDU--XLS.

3.0.2 Function Subsection Description

Detailed information concerning the purpose and operation of the interface are described in this
section.

3.0.3 Requirements and Limitations Subsection Description

Any operational requirements or limitations relating to the interface are described in this section.
Widely followed regulatory requirements may also be described here. Regionally enforced
requirements vary greatly and adherence to them remain the responsibility of the installing agency.

3.0.4. Electrical Characteristics Subsection Description

The electrical characteristics and format of the interface signals are described in this section. Any
flavor--related differences in signal format are also described here. Overlined pin names generally
indicate active low signals, although the absence of an overline does not necessarily indicate an
active high signal.

3.0.5 Interface Subsection Description

Interconnect drawings for units that are often installed are found in this section.

The harness techniques for shielding and shield termination described in this manual are identical
to those specified for the test harness used during HIRF and Lightning testing. Adherence to the
information in this manual is essential in establishing an installation environment equivalent to the
test environment used during the HIRF and Lightning testing.

Should grounding the shields at both ends of a wire cause unacceptable interference due to noise
sources on an aircraft, double shielded wire may be substituted for single shielded wire shown in
this manual. The outer shield must be grounded at both ends to comply with HIRF and Lightning
requirements. The inner shield may then be grounded at a single end to protect against the aircraft
noise source. Normally the inner shield is grounded at the source end of the signal carried by the
wire. Planning to install double shielded wire for low level signals known to have a history of
interference may be easier than later adding the double shielded wire into the aircraft harness.

3.5 RECEIVER PROCESSOR UNIT (RPU) INTERFACE

Four bidirectional serial data ports are provided for communication with up to four position sensor
units. Position unit #1 and #2 can be a VLF/OMEGA Receiver Position Unit (RPU) or an Inertial
Reference System (IRS) configurable for HI or LO speed. These two ports use standard ARINC
429 information.
Position Unit #3 ports are for connection to an IRS only. This port also uses standard ARINC 429
information. The transmitter lines are shared with an ARINC 429 radio transmitter and only
operates at low speed.

JA--A06 POSITION UNIT #4 RECEIVER (L) (INS/WX/EFIS 429)

3.5.1 OMEGA/VLF

There are five OMEGA/VLF sensors for the CDU--XLS. Four of them are 1/2 ATR Receiver
Processor Units (RPU) (P/N 30050--0505, 0606, 0808, and 0909, see Figure 1--2) and one is the
1/4 ATR Receiver Processor Unit (P/N 16675--0101). The main difference between these types
of units is the physical size and the unit connector. The --0505 and --0808 RPUs require additional
strapping for the RPU ON control (See Figure 3--8, Sheet 2).

3.5.2 OMEGA/VLF FUNCTION

OMEGA/VLF navigation equipment uses signals from eight (8) OMEGA transmitting stations and
signals from the U.S. Navy VLF Communications Network to provide global enroute navigation
capabilities. The CDU--XLS OMEGA/VLF sensor automatically selects the stations that will provide
the most accurate navigation. The OMEGA/VLF transmitters operate in the 10 kHz to 28kHz
frequency range.

3.5.3 OMEGA/VLF REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITATIONS

The CDU--XLS will operate with either an E--Field or an H--Field OMEGA/VLF antenna. The
H--Field antenna is preferred. The H--Field is far less susceptible to precipitation static than the
E--Field antenna but requires an electromagnetically quiet mounting location. An E--Field antenna
should only be considered if a suitable H--Field antenna location can not be found. IFR certification

of OMEGA/VLF E--Field antenna installations is difficult if not impossible to accomplish. High


speed aircraft are more susceptible to precipitation static than low speed aircraft. For these two
reasons, the use of an E--Field antenna is recommended for low speed aircraft, VFR applications
only. Antenna location is critical for both antenna types. A known good mounting location for the
specific aircraft type should be used or a location free from electrical and magnetic noise should
be located with the aid of proper measurement equipment. Restrictions also apply to the levelness
and orientation of the OMEGA/VLF antenna; to its separation from other antennas, including other
OMEGA/VLF antennas; and to the height above the ground for proper operation while the aircraft
is not in flight. Refer to Section II for detailed OMEGA/VLF antenna installation considerations.
Antenna cable routing is also critical. Routing should avoid equipment and other cabling that
conduct high voltages or high currents. Sources of 400 Hz AC can be particularly troublesome.

3.5.4 OMEGA/VLF (RPU) ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS

3.5.4.1 CDU--XLS Interface To RPU

The following paragraph describes the interface of the CDU--XLS to the RPU. The interface of the
RPU with the rest of the system installation is discussed in this section. The antenna interface is

3.5.4.3 Omega/VLF Antenna Interface

The Omega/VLF system (RPU) can utilize two different types of antennas. These two types of
antennas are the E--Field and the H--Field.

The RPU has two different types of E--Field antenna systems. The first is a stand--alone VLF blade
antenna. This antenna is connected directly to the RPU and no coupler or preamplifier is required.
The second type of E--Field antenna utilizes a VLF preamplifier or VLF Coupler/Preamplifier that
allows the use of an ADF Sense antenna.

The RPU has two different types of H--Field antenna systems. Both systems require a loop coupler
to be used between the loop antenna and the RPU. One version of the H--Field antenna has a
center mounted connector. The second version of H--Field antenna has the connector mounted
on the end of the unit.

3.6 GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM

3.6.1 GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM FUNCTION

GPS is a satellite--based radio positioning, navigation, and time--transfer system. A computer


within the GPS receiver unit continuously determines the position of all the orbiting GPS satellites
from data messages broadcast by the satellites. The receiver uses this information to determine
which satellites are currently in view. The GPS then translates the received signals from the
satellites in view into a three--dimensional position (latitude, longitude, and altitude), velocity, and
time. Predictable system accuracy for civil users should be about 100 meters with greater
accuracy available through decryption algorithms available only to the Department of Defense.
OMEGA/VLF navigation equipment is position keeping, i.e. it can only navigate if it is supplied an
initial position, and will sustain any error introduced by the initial position. GPS navigation
equipment is position finding, i.e. it can determine position without being supplied an initial
position, although, supplying an initial position may decrease the time necessary for the GPS to
become ready for navigation.

3.6.2 GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM LIMITATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS

The GPS that is used with the CDU--XLS is the internal GPS receiver contained in the GNS--XLS
CDU. This GPS Receiver is certified for IFR enroute and approach use and can be used for
primary navigation in oceanic and remote areas once an appropriate operational letter of
authorization has been obtained.

3.6.3 GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The only external connection to the GPS receiver is the antenna coax. There are three antennas
available for the GPS receiver. See Section I for coax types and lengths. For correct installation
the following list of instructions should be closely adhered to:

A. To properly install the GPS do not exceed the maximum cable lengths for specific types
of cable as shown in the Table 1--1 and 1--2.

B. Do not bundle the GPS receiver coax with other transceiver coaxial cables.

C. The center conductor of the coax must be soldered to the center contact of the
connector. Crimp style connectors have been shown to be unreliable.

D. Use the crimp tool specified by the crimp connector manufacturer for all connector
assemblies.

E. Use the connectors specified in Section I.

F. Do not use intermediate bulkhead connectors with coaxial cabling between the antenna
and the CDU.

3.7 ANNUNCIATOR FUNCTIONS

ACTIVE = GND
INACTIVE = OPEN
The following five outputs are provided to annunciate CDU--XLS conditions. They may be used
to illuminate lamps, engage relays, or to be sensed directly by other systems. The term illuminate,
as used below, indicates the active low state of the annunciator output.
SELECTED CROSSTRACK WARN: When illuminated, indicates that the system is tracking a
course offset and parallel to the flightplan.
APPROACH ANNUNCIATOR: When illuminated, indicates that the system is in the approach
mode of operation.
WAYPOINT ANNUNCIATOR: When illuminated, indicates that the aircraft will soon arrive at the
active waypoint.
DR ANNUNCIATOR: When illuminated, indicates that the system is in the Dead Reckoning mode
of operation.
MESSAGE ANNUNCIATOR: When flashing, indicates that there is an item on the Message page
which requires the pilot’s attention.
The following output is provided to annunciate CDU--XLS conditions. It may be used to illuminate
lamps, engage relays, or to be sensed directly by other systems. The term illuminate, as used
below, indicates the active high state of the annunciator output.
ACTIVE = OPEN
INACTIVE = GND

HEADING MODE ANNUNCIATOR: When illuminated, indicates that the system is using
FMS heading to control steering to the autopilot.

3.7.1 ANNUNCIATOR REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITATIONS

Message (MSG), Waypoint (WPT), Dead Reckoning (DR), Selected Crosstrack Warning, and
FMS Heading (FMS HDG) annunciators are required for all systems. Approach (APPR)
annunciation is needed for GPS approaches. Some EFIS systems will annunciate this, so a
discrete annunciator is not needed. Additional annunciator requirements will vary according to the
system configuration, operational considerations and applicable regulatory requirements.

3.7.2 ANNUNCIATOR ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS

CAUTION
Annunciators to be DC voltage only with a maximum of +33
VDC. Annunciator dimming may be by photocell or day/night
switch. Do not use panel lighting rheostat dimmed bus.

These outputs are open collector transistors. When active, the transistor is turned on and
conducting which provides a sink to ground for a load such as a lamp or a relay.

3.9 RADIO INTERFACE

The CDU--XLS will tune NAV, ADF, transponder, and communication radios. This is
accomplished by serial digital data links that provide two--way communications with the radio
control heads or the radios directly. Two serial data formats are supported.

A. ARINC 429 for use with Gables Series 811 control heads, Foster DME 670, and
Bendix/King Series III radios.

B. RS--422 Collins Serial Data Bus for use with Collins Proline II, Gables Series 814
control heads and Honeywell PRIMUS 2 radios.

The interface type is controlled by the configuration module.

The CDU--XLS provides two radio transmitter ports and eight radio receiver ports. The second
ARINC 429 transmitter is shared with the #3 position unit. The Flight Management System
automatically tunes the NAV radios only when the AUTO/MAN switch is set to AUTO MODE.
The FMS monitors the tuning data for each radio via the receiver ports. This data is displayed

3.19 GAMA ARINC 429 INTERFACE

The CDU--XLS provides a GAMA 429 port to transmit map data, weather radar information, and
steering commands to the IC--600. The labels are configurable for high or low speed data rate.
The receiving equipment should allow a label to be absent for at least three typical intervals
before flagging it as invalid. This will protect against transient noise on the bus.

Table 3--5a Additional 429 Output for BAe 146 Configuration

When the BAe 146 Configuration selection is made, the value on the GAMA Label 116 for Lateral
Course Deviation Indication is scaled so that Legacy Honeywell EFIS will display the values
required by TSO C129. Label 326 puts out a scaling reference value for all EFIS configurations.

Terminal ± 1.0 nmi Raw CDI÷(1/7.5) 1

Approach ± 0.3 nmi Raw CDI÷(1/25) 0.3


Label 326 is not looked at by the Legacy Honeywell EFIS so the scaling of Label 116 is required
to meet the TSO C129 requirements.

D. Repeat Steps B and C for each COMM installed in the aircraft.

E. If any of the above actions causes interference in tracking a satellite, it is necessary


to identify the source of the interference. There are two common sources:

1. The 12th and 13th harmonics of the frequencies tested above can be radiated
from the VHF COMM at a level strong enough to cause interference with the
GPS receiver and still be low enough to meet TSO requirements for the VHF
COMM. If this is found to be the source of the interference, an optional notch
filter ( Honeywell P/N 071-- 01565--0000 or TED Mfg. P/N 4--70--54) will need to
be installed. This inline filter should be installed as close to VHF transceiver as
possible.

2. Interference can also be caused by re--radiation from an ELT (Emergency


Locator Transmitter). The radiated RF from the VHF COMM can excite the
output tank circuit of the ELT, causing it to oscillate and radiate RF strong
enough to interfere with the GPS receiver. If disconnecting the ELT antenna
eliminates the problem, the ELT manufacturer should be contacted for a
recommended solution.

SECTION V
CERTIFICATION

5.0 INTRODUCTION

This section outlines the procedures required to obtain IFR certification for the CDU--XLS.
Recommended flight test procedures are also included.

NOTE
This section contains examples and guidance for aircraft installation.
This does not in any way absolve the installer from investigating and
resolving any issues related to certification on aircraft. The material
in this section is for reference only.

5.1 CERTIFICATION PROCEDURE

5.1.1 Equipment Compatibility

Careful consideration must be paid to the electrical characteristics of existing equipment or possible
additions that will be interfaced to the CDU--XLS Flight Management System, in order to ensure
system compatibility. Section III of this manual provides system planning guidelines, and defines
the electrical characteristics of the CDU--XLS Flight Management System. The installing agency
should contact Honeywell Aerospace Electronic Systems, Product Support at 1--800--257--0726,
for information regarding the compatibility of equipment not listed in Section III. Normal business
hours are 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time, Monday through Friday.

5.1.2 Equipment Location

The CDU--XLS Flight Management System and associated indicators, annunciators, and switches
should be clearly visible and within easy reach of the pilot. Refer to Section II of this manual for
complete installation information.

5.1.3 FAA Requirements

The installing agency should contact a local FAA Inspector (GADO, FSDO, ACDO, or ACO) who
will determine whether the installation may be approved by submitting FAA Form 337, or whether
a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) will be required. If FAA Form 337 is determined to be
sufficient, the installing agency should determine the acceptability of the procedures defined within
this manual. If the FAA Inspector determines that an STC is required, the installing agency will need
to contact the nearest Aircraft Certification Office (ACO), to obtain acceptable procedures.
The FAA Central Region Aircraft Certification Office, Wichita, Kansas, has on file an approved
report regarding the CDU--XLS Flight Management System. This report contains the bench test data
and DO--160C environmental test data required to demonstrate the CDU--XLS Flight Management
System’s compliance.

5.1.4 FAA Form 337

FAA Form 337 must be completed and submitted to the FAA.

A Flight Manual Supplement is required for IFR approval. A sample supplement is provided in the
Flight Manual Supplement Appendix, of this manual. The sample is to be used as a guide to
acceptable content and format, and is not intended to apply to all installations. It is the responsibility
of the installing agency to prepare an appropriate Flight Manual Supplement, and obtain FAA
approval.

5.1.6 Pilot Briefing

The installing agency should carefully review the Flight Manual Supplement and the CDU--XLS
Flight Management System Pilot’s Guide, P/N 006--08872--0000, with the owner/operator of the
aircraft.

5.2 FLIGHT TESTS

5.2.1 IFR Approval

Flight testing to gain IFR approval involves several dynamics listed below:

1. DELETED: The requirement for accuracy checks by overflight in AC20--130A and


AC20--138 has been rescinded by the FAA. (Accuracy checks involving five or more
over--flights of one or more surveyed positions. Flight Technical Error (FTE) budget is 1.0
NM for enroute and terminal operations, .25 NM for approach operations.)

2. Antenna shading checks by maneuvering the aircraft in turns up to 30° of bank for one
minute, in both directions.

3. Verifying proper interfaces by expected function, as well as “failing” circuit breakers to


record effects.

4. Verifying proper flight control system tracking when coupled to the GPS.

5. If seeking IFR approach approval, a minimum of three published approaches, retrieved


from the database, must be conducted to verify proper operation of equipment.

Reference FAA Advisory Circular AC 20--130A, for further details. Optionally AC20--138 can be
consulted for GPS issues. AC20--129 should be consulted for Aircraft Certification issues related
to Vertical Navigation (VNAV).

INSTRUCTIONS FOR TAILORING THE AIRCRAFT FLIGHT MANUAL


SUPPLEMENT (AFMS)
The included AFMS is provided as a sample only. Each installer will need to address the particular
requirements of his aircraft configuration and the use of the aircraft. Further details on using this
AFMS are:

1. The Operators Manual Title is “GNS--X C129 (with GNS--XLS CDU)” the current revision is
revision 2, August 2000.

2. The sample AFMS in section 2.2B calls out a reference for AC20--130A for VORTAC
accuracy checks. In the current version of AC20--130A the section should be 7. System
Accuracy (2).

3. The sample AFMS in section 2.5 B points out a limitation of flight plan display. This is system
configuration dependent and may not be true for all installations.

4. AFMS sample 2.5 C points out limitations in the Jeppesen database, the same limitation is
still advised.

5. AFMS sample 2.5D indicates that Approaches may become active further out than 2.0 nmi.
This is no longer a true limitation of the CDU--XLS SM04 (NMU) or greater.
