Optional
Aircraft Equipment
Description
Performance Management
Computer
Supplies the aircraft climb rate performance limit discrete
input to the TPA-100A TCAS Processor.
Wind Shear System and/or
Ground Proximity System
Supplies the TCAS advisory inhibit discrete input to the
TPA-100A TCAS Processor during wind shear or ground
proximity alarm conditions.
ARINC 615 Data Loader (airborne or
portable)
Reprograms the TCAS processor program memory
without requiring physical access to the unit.
Programming is done through ARINC 429 input and output
ports on the TCAS processor rear connector or a
dedicated data loader connector on the front panel. The
data loading can be done at the low-speed or high-speed
ARINC 429 data transfer rate. A data loader adapter cable
(Honeywell Part No. 300-80179-0501) is supplied to
connect a portable data loader to the TCAS processor
front panel connector.
NOTE:
PPI display shows independently or total radar and TCAS traffic on the same display.
