9.7 INITIAL STARTUP AND PRELIMINARY TESTING
The following paragraphs detail the step-by-step procedures for initial start-up and preliminary testing of the VOR.
9.7.1
Input Voltage Checks
After the AC and DC power has been connected to the DVOR transmitter it is necessary to check the input power to
ensure the proper voltage is applied to the system.
a. Set the VOR AC and DC circuit breakers to the OFF position.
b. Set the shelter primary AC power circuit breakers to the ON position.
c. Using an AC voltmeter check voltage across the AC Monitor 1A22TB3-1 (LINE) to 1A22TB3-2
(NEUTRAL) terminals. Insure the voltage meets the range specified in section Table 1-1.
d. Turn on the VOR DC circuit breaker while leaving the AC circuit breakers OFF.
e. Using a DC voltmeter check voltage across 1A5 Carrier Backplane E1 (BATT_POS) to E2 (GND). Insure
the voltage is 42 to 52Vdc.
f. For dual equipment check voltage across 1A5 Carrier Backplane E5 (BATT_POS) to E2 (GND). Insure
the voltage is 42 to 52Vdc.
g. Turn DC circuit breakers to the OFF position.
9.7.2
Installing Modules in Transmitter Cabinet
Since the VOR transmitter cabinet is shipped separately from its electronic modules, it will be necessary to install
them into the transmitter equipment cabinet. Insure AC and DC circuit breakers are set to the OFF position.
CAUTION
Many of the modules used in the VOR transmitter contain Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
sensitive components. ALWAYS wear protective wrist strap when installing modules or
CCAs. Before modules are installed into transmitter cabinet, check modules or CCAs for
cracked or broken connectors, bent pins, and loose hardware. Report any damage
immediately.
9.7.3
Turn on Procedure
a. Verify all assemblies are properly installed and are fully seated.
b. Turn AC and DC circuit breakers to the ON position.
c. Verify the PWR OK LEDs are lit on card cage modules with power indication feature.
d. Verify the CPU OK LEDs are lit on the Audio Generator, BCPS, Monitor, and RMS assemblies.
9.7.4
PMDT Hookup and Setup
a. Unpack the PMDT laptop computer and follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions to power-up the
computer, create a user account, and logon to Windows™ as an administrator.
b. Insert the 978178-XXXX PMDT CD-ROM into the laptop computer.
c. Select Start >> Run then type D:\Setup.exe to start the PMDT installation. Note if installation does not
start then use the correct drive letter associated with the CD-ROM drive.
d. Follow the default prompts for PMDT installation.
e. In order for the PMDT controls to be properly displayed change the DPI Setting to “Normal (96 DPI)” in
Windows on the Display Properties >> Settings >> Advanced >> General tab. Note that Display Properties
can be accessed by right-clicking on the Windows background then selecting Properties.
f. At the VOR assure the AC and DC breakers are in the ON position.
g. Plug the USB cord between the laptop computer and 1A3A6J1 (PMDT USB) located on the RMS CCA.
h. Windows should detect the USB device and start installing a driver. If prompted for the USB driver files
they are installed in the PMDT directory at C:\Program Files\SELEX-SI\PMDT\FTDI USB Driver.
i. Start the PMDT application by double-clicking on the desktop icon named PMDT.
j. Select System >> PMDT Setup.
k. In the Navaid Direct COM Port control pick the COM port that contains “USB Serial Port” in the
description.
