- 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 computer unit. Its level is
programmable up to 80 mW into a 600-ohm audio distribution system. All aural
traffic and resolution advisories are annunciated over this output. See RBP-7A for
audio level programming.

ADS-B Program Input (ADS-B Enable)
This program pin input is used to enable DTIF (Display of Traffic Information File)
and is required to be enabled for Hybrid Surveillance.
RMP-5F
ADS-B Program Input (Programmable-Intruder File Enable per TCAS)
This program pin input is used to allow or prevent the display of ADS-B traffic while
TCAS is in Standby or fault mode.
RMP-5G
ADS-B Program Input (Traffic Simulation Enable)
This pin is the Ethernet Traffic simulation enable. If RMP 5G is not grounded,
ethernet messages will not be processed.
