- 7. Downloading Information from the TP3PCAS Using a CF Card
- 1. Obtain a New or Blank Compact Flash (CF) card.
- 2. Copy to the New or Blank CF card the appropriate ‘Header File’
- a) Header files are files copied to the New or Blank CF card that will instruct the computer unit what is desired to be downloaded.
- b) Header files needed to download Maintenance Data, Event Data and CRC Part Numbers can be obtained from ACSS Customer Services at +1-623-445-7070 or crc.acss@l-3com.com.
- 3. For downloading Maintenance Data, Event Data or CRC Part Numbers the aircraft does not need to be in an on-ground configuration.
- 4. Apply power to the computer unit.
- 5. Insert the CF card.
- 6. For ACSS part numbers 9005000-10000, -10101, -10202, and -10204 the DATA STATUS LED will UblinkU green once; this indicates the unit recognized that a CF card was inserted.
- 7. For ACSS part numbers 9005000-11203, -11801 and -55801 the DATA STATUS LED will UblinkU green while reading the header file and performing the action defined in the header file.
- 8. Flight Data Recording
- 1. T3CAS part numbers 9005000-10000, -10101, -10202, and -10204 only support FAT16 CF card formatting. T3CAS part numbers 9005000-11203, -11801 and -55801 support both FAT16 and FAT32 CF card formatting.
- B. Flight Data
- 1. Obtain a New or Blank CF Card.
- 2. Copy to the New or Blank CF Card the Appropriate Header File.
- 3. Header files are files copied to the New or Blank CF card that will instruct the computer unit what is desired to be downloaded.
- 4. For Flight Data Recording, the aircraft does not need to be in an on-ground configuration.

CAS/Part No.9005000
(14) Glideslope Deviation (Digital/Analog)
The T
3
CAS Glideslope Deviation input parameter is updated using either
Glideslope Deviation data or MLS Elevation Deviation from one of the following
LRU data sources: ILS, FMS, DFS, MLS or GPS.
The minimum External Sensor input accuracies accepted for Glideslope
Deviation are as follows:
● 0.00455 for ddm < 0.0455
● 10% for ddm < 0.175
● Non-decreasing for ddm < 0.800.
(15) Localizer Deviation (Digital/Analog)
The T
3
CAS Localizer Deviation input parameter is updated using either Localizer
Deviation data OR MLS Azimuth Deviation from the following LRU data sources:
ILS, FMS, DFS and MLS.
The minimum External Sensor input accuracies accepted for Localizer Deviation
are as follows:
● 0.00465 for ddm < 0.0465
● 10% for ddm < 0.155
● 20% for ddm < 0.310
● Non-decreasing for ddm < 0.400.
(a) Analog ILS Input
See Glideslope Deviation Analog ILS Input.
(16) Selected Decision Height
The T
3
CAS Selected Decision Height input parameter is updated using one of
the following LRU data sources: EFIS, MCP or FMS.
If the Decision Height is not available from one of the above LRU sources, the
Decision Height will not be annunciated.
The minimum External Sensor input accuracy accepted for Selected Decision
Height is 1 foot (0.305 meters).
(17) Minimum Descent Altitude
The T
3
CAS Minimum Descent Altitude input parameter is updated using one of
the following LRU data sources: EFIS, MCP or FMS.
The minimum External Sensor input accuracy accepted for Minimum Descent
Altitude is 1 foot (0.305 meters).
(18) Body Longitudinal Acceleration (Digital/Analog)
The Body Longitudinal Acceleration input parameter is only used on installations
where T
3
CAS is performing the RWS function.
