TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
PHYS I CAL DESCRIPTION
TRANS CEIVER
1 The transceiver is mounted in a cast enclosure with one removable side cover that allows
access to the transceiver electronics (refer to Figure 1). The cover is fitted with a seal to
prevent the ingress of moisture, and is secured to the cast enclosure by seven bolts. A strap
attached to the cover and enclosure prevents the cover from being dropped when removed from
the enclosure.
2 The main units are:
(1) Antenna Motor and Gearbox, 55-100-0273-001
(2) Azimuth/Heading Line Encoder, GTX-A188
(3) RF Rotating Joint, 45-750-0034-001
(4) Swing Mount for the antenna, LPA-1129
(5) Transceiver, DTX-A115
(6) Power Supply, 45-690-0062-002
(7) Switch and CAN Adapter PCA Assembly, DTX-A150 comprising:
(a) CAN Adapter PCB, NNR-A981
(b)

Azimuth Interface PCA, DTX-A151
3 The Antenna Motor and Gearbox (55-100-0273-001) is mounted on top of the cast
enclosure with the antenna turning motor facing the rear of the enclosure. The antenna is
mounted on a swing casting (LPA-1129) fitted to the top of the gearbox. The gearbox has a
hollow output shaft through which the RF Rotating Joint (rojo) passes. The output shaft also
incorporates the mounting for the Azimuth Encoder (GTX-A188), which provides angular
position information in the form of azimuth and heading line pulses.
4 The Transceiver (DTX-A115) is mounted on the side wall of the enclosure, the Power
Supply (DTX-A111) is mounted on the base of the enclosure, and the Switch and CAN
Adapter PCA Assembly (DTX-A150) is mounted on the rear end of the enclosure.
DRIVE CON TROL UNIT
5 The Drive Control Unit comprises a sheet metal rear plate which is formed to include the
top and bottom of the unit and also provides the bulkhead fixing points (refer to Figure 2).
The main sub-units, including the inverter, are bolted to the rear plate. A sheet metal
wrap-around cover is secured in position by four screws.
