ATIMS DESCRIPTION/OPERATION ATSU

_ The ATSU has been designed to take provision of all foreseen evolutions. The modularity concept for software permits to ease data link capability during all Communication Navigation Surveillance/Air Traffic Management (CNS/ATM) transitions. The ATSU software is partitioned into two main parts:

- Aircraft interface / host platform and - Data link applications.

ATIMS DESCRIPTION/OPERATION AIRCRAFT INTERFACE/HOST PLATFORM SOFTWARE

_ The aircraft interface/host platform is composed of four services :

- Air/ground management media,

communication, used for the of the air/ground communication

- Human

machine interface, used for the management of the CNS/ATM cockpit interfaces (MCDU, printer and alert function), function),

- On-board peripherals, used for the management of the communication with the on-board peripheral units (Data Management Unit (DMU), CFDIU, FMS and Cabin Terminal (CT)),

- System management, used for the acquisition of

the aircraft parameters for application software use and monitoring of the system (power supply and BITE functions).

ATIMS DESCRIPTION/OPERATION DATALINK APPLICATIONS

_ The data link applications include only Airline Operation Control (AOC) for the pre FANS configuration. The AOC applications are dedicated to data communication services between the aircraft and the airline facility. The AOC is composed of :

- Remote AOC applications and - Hosted AOC applications.

For the remote AOC applications the ATSU only routes data to and from AOC peripherals. This routing is in charge of receiving ground messages and routing them to the right AOC peripheral and acquiring messages or reports from these peripherals peripherals and sending them to the ground.

ATIMS MCDU UTILIZATION INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE OF THE ATSU ROUTER

_ This procedure, called Initialization of the ATSU Router, enables the Air-Ground communications functions and services of the ATSU to be activated. Three essential parameters are required :

- a valid flight ident, - an A/C Registration Number (ARN) and - a valid scan mask.

Otherwise, the ACARS STBY green memo is displayed on the ECAM . Let’s check the present configuration.

_ The A/C Registration Number is sent by the CFDIU. The ATSU creates the flight ident by concatenating concatenating the airline ident parameter and the flight number parameter coming from the FMS. The airline ident is not available available and must be entered.

_ The last parameter required is the Scan Mask validation. The VHF scan mask gives an ordered list of service providers usable for VHF data communications. Test AS and Test DA are activated only for test and shall not be selected for airline operations. The operator can define two service providers by entering a password in the scratchpad and by pressing the line keys 2R and 3R. The All Inputs Erase function is used to erase the previous selection.

ATIMS COMPONENT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

_ The avionics computers are Electrostatic Sensitive Devices (ESDs). These components are susceptible to damage by electrical sources that would not damage conventional components. The low energy source, that most commonly destroys ESDs, is the human body which generates static electricity in conjunction with the ground. The precautions to follow are to :

- de-energize all power and signal sources, conductive work - place the unit on a grounded conductive surface,

- ground any tools that will contact the unit...

When it is specified on the maintenance manual.
