8.2.4.8
APPR Active Input
Active low discrete input from a GPS receiver when approach mode is activated.
8.2.4.9
FCS-LOC Engage Input
Active low discrete input from a GPS receiver when approach is selected.
8.2.5
Autopilot
8.2.5.1
Lateral Deviation Output
A low-level lateral deviation output that is connected to an autopilot lateral deviation
(RT/LT) input. The low side of the differential output is referenced to ground. Before
connecting this output verify the receiving equipment’s left/right input can
accommodate a ground potential on the low side.
Lateral Deviation: .......... ±150mVdc minimum for full scale CDI deflection
Sense: ........................... Positive voltage for fly right
Load: ............................ Will drive up to three 1000 ohm loads
8.2.5.2
Lateral Flag Output
A low level valid output to the autopilot indicating the Lateral (LT/RT) signal from the
ACU is valid.
Valid: ............................ 0.4 to 0.8Vdc
Invalid: .......................... Less than 0.05Vdc
Load: ............................ Will drive up to three 1000 ohm loads
NOTE – ACU2 P/N 910-00004-102 does not have a low level flag. It provides a discrete to ground
for energizing an external superflag relay.
8.2.5.3
Vertical Deviation Output
A low level vertical deviation output that is connected to an autopilot vertical (UP/DN)
input. The low side of the differential output is referenced to ground.
Output Voltage: ............. ±150mVdc nominal, tracks the glide slope deviation input
signal to within 5%
Loading: ........................ Up to three 1000-ohm loads
8.2.5.4
Vertical Flag Output
A low level output to the autopilot indicating the UP/DN from the ACU is valid.
Valid: ............................ 0.4 to 0.8Vdc
Invalid: .......................... Less than 0.05Vdc
Load: ............................ Will drive up to three 1000-ohm loads
NOTE – ACU2 P/N 910-00004-102 does not have a low level flag. It provides a discrete to ground
for energizing an external superflag relay.
8.2.5.5
ILS Energize Output
Active low output to an autopilot when an ILS is selected or GPS approach is active.
ILS/GPS APPR Active: ..... Sink to ground
ILS/GPS APPR Inactive: ... Open
Load Current: ................ 100ma maximum
