- 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.
- 5. Apply power to the computer unit.

RBP-6E, 6F
ARINC 429 TCAS Output to CFDS: [RBP-6E (A), RBP-6F (B)]
This differential pair output is a low-speed ARINC 429 bus (12.5k bits/second
nominal), that transmits labels 350, 354, 356, 357, 360, 361, 362, 363, 364, 365,
377 to an onboard maintenance computer or a central fault display system.
RBP-6G, 6H
ARINC 429 CFDS Input: [RBP-6G (A), RBP-6H (B)]
This differential pair input is a low-speed ARINC 429 bus (12.5k bits/second
nominal), that receives data from an onboard maintenance computer or a central
fault display system.
NOTE: These pins are designated for CFDS data if T
3
CAS is operating in full
configuration mode with TAWS, TCAS and internal transponder enabled. If T
3
CAS
is operating as a TAWS and TCAS only configuration with internal transponder
disabled, then the CFDS will only provide inputs to TCAS.
RBP-6J
Single Mode S Transponder Program Pin Input
Ground this pin when the computer is connected to a single mode S transponder.
RBP-6K
Single Radio Altimeter Program Pin Input
Ground this pin when the computer is connected to a single radio altimeter.
