1. General
The Model F800 (see Figure 1) Digital Flight Recorder (DFR) is designed for installation in those
types of aircraft which are wired to meet all current requirements for ARINC 573/717, ARINC 542,
ARINC 542A, and/or Expanded Parameters. It is an endless–loop, magnetic tape device that oper-
ates either alone, or in the case of ARINC 573/717 Configurations, as a portion of the Flight Data Ac-
quisition and Recording System (FDARS). Its crash and fire protection characteristics meet or ex-
ceed TSO–C51a requirements, withstanding 20,000 lbs crush per axis, impacts of 1,000 g’s for 5 ms,
and temperatures of 1100 O C for 1 hour.
Model F800 Digital Flight Recorder (DFR)

Figure 1
When installed on an aircraft, the DFR records aircraft operating information consecutively on six
tracks for a maximum of 25 hours. All data is read out 3 seconds after recording and fed to Built–In
Test Equipment (BITE) which continuously monitors such things as the incoming data and power,
internal operation of the DFR, faulty track changes, and other critical DFR operating parameters.
Displays in the aircraft’s Flight Data Entry Panel (FDEP) and/or warning indicator panels indicate the
operating status of the DFR as determined by the BITE. This test circuitry also checks to ensure that
the DFR is installed in the proper aircraft configuration.

Through the use of a synchronous motor and two Kapton belt reduction drives, the DFR operates at
a continuous tape speed of only 0.361 ips, prolonging head life and increasing MTBF beyond industry
standards. Because of its endless–loop design, the DFR never stops, reverses, or changes speeds
from the time it is turned ON until it is turned OFF, continuously recording all data without interruption.
A Read Data Unit (RDU) is required for all data readouts.
A. Optional Equipment
In order to satisfy different installation requirements, the Model F800 Digital Flight Recorder is
available under several major configurations (see below and Figure 2).
Configuration No. Type of Installation
17M30X–( ) ARINC 542/542A or Expanded Parameters with electric only and
573/717.
17M60X–( ) ARINC 542/542A or Expanded Parameters with electric only data
inputs.
17M70X–( ) ARINC 542/542A or Expanded Parameters with electric and/or
pneumatic data inputs.
17M800–( ) ARINC 573/717
17M90X–( ) ARINC 542/542 or Expanded Parameters with electric and/or
pneumatic data and 573/717.
Figure 2 shows the Configuration Number breakdown as it describes a particular type of DFR.

D. Mechanical Description
(1) Crash and Fire Protection Capsule
As shown in Figure 8, the tape transport capsule is triple protected by an inner aluminum
casing, an iso–thermal protection shield, a stainless steel crash casing cover, and the exte-
rior stainless steel dust cover. The crash casing and dust cover enable the DFR to meet a
test of 20,000 lbs crush per axis, instead of the 5,000 lbs called out in TSO–C51a, and
provides impact protection for 1,000 g’s for 5 ms.
The iso–thermal insulation shield maintains the inner chamber at a safe temperature when
subjected to an external temperature of 1100C for 1 hour, rather than the 1/2 hour speci-
fied for Type I testing.
(2) Drive Unit Assembly
The Drive Unit assembly consists of a two–phase 115–V, 400–Hz induction motor, drawing
approximately 5 watts, which drives two Kapton belts, one for each of the speed reduction
stages. The two driven pulleys also act as flywheels (Figure 9) with the last coupled direct-
ly to the single capstan drive.

(3) Reel and Tape Assembly
The Reel and Tape Assembly (see Figure 10) consists of a precision bridge assembly con-
taining the record (Write) and reproduce (Read) heads; the capstan and pinch roller as-
sembly, which controls the rate of movement of the tape; and the tape path and channel
assembly, which guides the tape into the tape hub and reel.
(a) Tape Configuration
The tape is an endless loop of 1/4–inch, back–lubricated Mylar. It is approximately

0.0012–inch thick and is drawn out of the hub and returned to the supply reel at the
outer periphery of the bundle after having passed over the Write and Read heads.
With a total length of 458 ± 2 feet and a tape speed of 0.361 ips, the looped tape re-
peats itself every 4 hours and 13.7 ± 1.1 min. A 1/8– to 1/4–inch–long window on
the tape allows a light signal from a Light Emitting Diode (LED) to pass to the optical
track–change sensor to switch the recording from one track to the next. Sequencing
through all six tracks will therefore result in a minimum of 25 hours of unrepeated
recording.

(b) Magnetic Heads
The DFR uses two, six–track heads (see Figure 11 for tape–head wiring): the Write
head which puts the data onto the tape, and the Read head which is used for self–
monitoring as well as data reproduction by a Read Data Unit (RDU).
Since the actual recording on tape is in the Non–Return–to–Zero (NRZ–M) or Bf-M

saturation mode, the Write head automatically erases any 25–hour–old data as it re-
cords new incoming information, eliminating the need for separate erase heads.
Both heads are permanently precision mounted at the factory and only need align-
ment when tape or heads are replaced.
(c) Transport Tape Path Assembly
Referring to Figure 10, the molded acetal hub on which the tape is wound is actually
cone shaped in order to lead the tape out of the bundle at the exact

exit angle required. It is protected by an acetal cover which assures the integrity of
the tape bundle and its proper functioning regardless of the aircraft’s attitude. As
shown, it contains radial rollers which support the tape for minimum friction and wear.
In addition, the tape rides on fixed needle pins embedded radially on the reel, reduc-
ing the amount of friction and wear on the tape.

AVIATION RECORDERS
FAIRCHILD MODEL
F800
An angled roller helps clear the tape from the central bundle and feeds it to a corner
guide roller for passage over the Read/Write precision bridge assembly. Two pres-
sure pads are factory adjusted to assure close contact with the heads without caus-
ing undue drag or wear. A vertical guide post feeds the tape into the capstan and
pinch roller, and with the corner guide, forms a second anchor point for the tape
across the heads.
The stainless steel capstan is mounted between two ball bearings in a housing which
contains a built–in stripper edge to prevent the tape from sticking to and wrapping
itself around the capstan. A silicone–rubber pinch roller is mounted on a pivot arm
and spring–loaded against the capstan to provide the necessary friction to drive the
tape.
The final guide channel makes sure that the tape does not “accordion” before enter-
ing the tape cover and the periphery of the bundle.
2. Block Diagram Description of Recorder Operation
A. Data Formats
The Model F800 DFR is designed to record in a mode which will result in the lowest flux densi-
ties on the tape, greatly reducing the bit errors and giving the highest unit reliability possible.
The recording format therefore depends on the type of configuration (i.e., Expanded Parameter,
ARINC 542A or ARINC 573/717) used in the aircraft in which the DFR is installed.
(1) ARINC 542 Configuration
ARINC 542 parameters such as pressure, synchro angles, vertical acceleration, etc., are
converted into Harvard Bi–phase (Bi-Phase–M) digital codes as shown in Figure 12 &
Figure 13. After conversion, each frame of data is recorded at a rate of 1 frame/sec and
contains a sync word, 8 parameter words recorded in Harvard Bi–phase code, and one
blank word for a total of 10 words/frame. This results in a rate of 120 bits/sec (i.e., 10
words/frame X 1 frame/sec X 12 bits/word), or 240 transitions/sec since Harvard Bi–phase
has two flux–reversals/bit as shown in the Figures.
(2) ARINC 542A and Expanded Parameter Configuration
The ARINC 542A and Expanded Parameter configuration expands the 6 parameters of the
basic ARINC 542 to 20 analog, 4 discrete, and one internally generated time parameter.
These analog signals are sampled and converted to 12–bit Harvard Bi–phase words, 32 of
which make up a frame such as the ones shown in Figure 15. These frames are recorded
at a rate of 1 frame or 384 bits per second (768 transitions/sec).
(3) ARINC 573/717 Configuration
In this mode the DFR receives a conditioned digital data stream from an external Flight
Data Acquisition Unit (FDAU). These conditioning units produce 12–bit Harvard Bi–phase
words at a rate of 64 words/sec for each frame, resulting in a bit rate of 768 bits/sec.

Harvard Bi–phase and NRZ Codes

Figure 13
The RDU has a REFORMATTER option which will convert the GCR playback data to
ARINC 573/717 format based on the incoming data format selected from the front panel.
Fairchild processing computers recognize the GCR code directly, so a REFORMATTER is
not necessary. If the customer is not using a Fairchild processing computer, software and
hardware can be added to the customer’s processing system to recognize the GCR format
directly.
In all Fairchild Model M903, M800, and M30X configured flight recorders, ARINC 573/717
incoming data formats are converted from Harvard Bi–phase format to a Group Code Re-
cording (GCR) format (see Figure 14) for data storage on the DFR tape. This format is
more suitable for magnetic recording than the Harvard Bi–phase format entering the DFR.
The 12–bit Harvard Bi–phase incoming data stream format is converted to the 15–bit
NRZ–M format before it is stored on the tape. This conversion reduces the data bit rate to
tape, resulting in lower packing densities and providing greater data storage reliability
through higher signal–to–noise ratios. On playback, the output data stream may need to
be converted to ARINC 573/717 format if the processing computer cannot handle the GCR
format.

B. CPU Software Operation 1.
Control of the Model F800 DFR resides in the Central Processing Unit (CPU) and its operating
software. The software program resides in a Programmable Read Only Memory (PROM). Each
of the configured DFR’s have different operating requirements, and therefore, must have differ-
ent, though similar, software. The Software Flowchart for the 17M900 DFR is representative of
the entire line of recorders (as shown in Figure 16 and Figure 17) and will be used in the follow-
ing discussion.
Upon startup, a hardware reset circuit initializes the program and causes the mode–checking
software to be executed. The (hardware) output from the Interface I card is examined to see if a
573/717 data stream is present. If it is, the program is latched in the 573/717 mode; if not, it de-
faults to the ARINC 542 operation.
In either case, housekeeping functions are performed and a search for input data stream transi-
tions begins. From this point on, the operation of the two ARINC modes are different and will be
discussed separately. However, since both ARINC 542 modes (i.e., pneumatic and electric) use
the same software flow–diagram logic, only a typical 542 mode will be described.

(1) Software Operation for ARINC 573/717 (See Figure 16)
As transitions are found, the input data stream is reconstructed and a CHECK SYNC
Mode is entered to find sync patterns. If transitions are not found within a 100–ms period,
a flux change is written on tape, creating a Marker Pulse to indicate data absence. When
this marker is read 3 seconds later by the BITE system, it prevents the system from issu-
ing erroneous recorder–malfunction indications. However, if a total of 64 seconds passes
without a data transition, the program issues a fault signal of 4 seconds duration to the
BITE, which causes hardware to issue a “NO DATA INPUT” signal to an external indicator
(DFR OFF Light).
As the CHECK SYNC Mode continues, the DFR microprocessor converts the input data to
the Fairchild GCR format (Figure 14) and writes it on tape. As soon as a sync pattern
match occurs, the program immediately advances to the LOCK Mode, and all input frames
of Harvard Bi–phase data are converted to the GCR format and recorded on tape in 5–bit
nibbles within 250 ms. If no sync pattern is detected for 64 frames (i.e., 64 seconds),
another fault signal of 8–seconds duration is passed on by the BITE, indicating that while
input is present, no recognizable sync pattern can be found.
When the LOCK Mode is established, subsequent sync patterns must appear in this pre-
cisely defined sync window or the program will revert back to the CHECK SYNC Mode.
(2) Software Operation for ARINC 542 (See Figure 17)
When the ARINC 542 mode is entered, the initial 542 housekeeping functions are followed
by a second, lower–level check to determine whether 542 Electric or 542 Pneumatic data
is being received. This is accomplished by the Synchro/Mux card which is used to detect
the presence of a Coarse Altitude excitation signal. When this signal is present, a Mode
Detection circuit in the Synchro/Mux card will send an active–low “542 Electric–Mode Pres-
ent” signal to the CPU.
Following additional housekeeping, the data frame is synchronized with an internal CPU
clock, and a 120–bps Bi–phase data stream under interrupt control is written onto tape.
While data is being recorded, other data parameters are acquired, formatted if necessary,
and placed in interim registers within the CPU. When it is time for a sampled parameter to
be placed in the data format, it is moved to an output shift register and serialized onto the
tape by the interrupt write routine.
A hardware–detected track fault is output immediately and can be reset only by a Power
DOWN/UP sequence. For other faults, the Fault Status Bit is examined to determine if
any have occurred during the frame. Failure to synchronize to the 1–Hz clock, or improp-
erly performed synchro or analog–to–digital data conversions during timed intervals will
cause the Fault Status Bit in the binary word to be set. An accumulation of 32 successive
faults of this type will cause an external fault indication.

FAIRCHILD MODEL
F800
(1) Interface I
ARINC 573/717 Data is applied through rear–panel connector J1A to Interface I. When
the interface detects the presence of ARINC 573/717 data, it sends an active–low
“573/717 Present” signal to the CPU. After conditioning the input data to the proper signal
levels, the Interface I card sends it to the CPU where it is converted from Harvard Bi–
phase to GCR. This signal is amplified by the Write Amplifier Card to a current sufficient to
drive the Write Heads of the Tape Transport.
(2) Synchro/Multiplexer
In ARINC 542 Configurations up to 6 analog synchro signals can be input to a single Syn-
chro/Multiplexer card with one or two boards being used depending on the number of in-
puts. These synchro signals are sequentially selected and resolved into their Sine and
Cosine components. In addition to these functions, the S/D Mux board detects the pres-
ence of the Coarse Altitude excitation signal and generates the active–low “542E Mode
Present” signal used by the CPU software to trigger for ARINC 542, 542A, or Expanded
Parameter electric processing.
(3) Synchro/Digital Converter
The resulting Sine and Cosine analog signals output from the S/D Mux(s) are then routed
to the Synchro/Digital Converter where they are sampled and digitized into 12–bit binary
words. In the conversion process, the synchro angle required to produce the relative dif-
ferences between the absolute Sine and Cosine amplitudes is determined. The quadrant
of this angle is determined by comparing the phase angles of the two functions with the
synchro reference signal. The resultant digitized signal is then input to the Interface II
board.
(4) Pneumatic Airspeed and Altitude Transducers
Pneumatic airspeed and altitude pressures signals (ARINC 542/542A Pneumatic Mode or
Expanded Parameter) are input to the airspeed transducer and the altitude transducer, re-
spectively, for conversion to analog electric signals. The resultant signals are applied to
the Analog/Digital Converter board along with the vertical acceleration signal, which is ap-
plied to the board directly from the accelerometer. All of these signals are digitized and
placed on the 542 Data Bus for transmission to the Interface II board.
(5) Analog/Digital Converter
The Analog/Digital Converter assembly accepts various aircraft parameters in analog form,
and under the program control of the CPU, selects each input in the proper order and con-
verts it into a 12–bit binary form for recording (see Figure 7 for different ARINC specifica-
tions).
(6) Interface II
The Interface II board provides interface compatibility between the CPU and the data ac-
quisition system by performing level shifting, parameter decode/control, and data bus mul-
tiplexing and control. This board also accepts the Microphone, Marker Beacon, Trip and
Date, Vertical Acceleration Sign, the External Fault Indicator, and the frequency–mode bit
inputs.

(7) Write Amplifier
The Write Amplifier is used to: 1) store track addresses in a non–volatile random–access
memory, 2) detect the End–Of–Tape (EOT) signal transmitted by the optical sensor on the
tape assembly, and 3) convert the incoming Logic 1’s and 0’s from the CPU board to a bi–
directional current so that the record heads will write the correct flux pattern on tape.
(8) Read Amplifier
The Read Board accepts low–level analog inputs from the tape and provides the high–level
outputs necessary for playback. All of the six outputs from the Read Head are applied to a
multiplexer where a signal from the Write Amplifier selects the currently recorded track for
playback–monitoring by the BITE. This data is also output to the ATE connector for exter-
nal use by Ground Support Equipment (GSE) and for simultaneous copying, if desired.
By using the 2–times speed enhancement mode and outputting all six tracks simultaneous-
ly, the entire 25 hours can be accessed in just a little over 2 hours.
(9) Power Supply
Aircraft power is applied to the DFR through connector J1A on the rear panel. The Power
Supply board converts the input 115V (400 Hz) to regulated 12 V, +5V and +20 Vdc (un-
regulated) supplies. Built–In Test Equipment (BITE) located on the Interface I board moni-
tors the power and causes the RECORDER FAULT light to illuminate in the event of a
power supply failure.
(10) Built–In Test Equipment (BITE)
The BITE circuitry also detects configuration incompatibility and indicates such conditions
as data absence, faulty tracks or faulty track changes, no sync, unrecognizable data, A/D
or S/D conversion faults, Write or Read data faults, and clock faults. The following para-
graphs further explain the operation of the BITE system.
D. BITE Operation
Figure 19 shows the DFR BITE fault–light sequence.
(1) BITE Operation for ARINC 542/542A and Expanded Parameter Mode
(a) With all flight parameters active and RECORDER POWER OFF, the RECORDER
FAULT Light illuminates. When power is applied, the RECORDER FAULT Lamp ex-
tinguishes within 5 seconds.
(b) When the recorder senses the presence of altitude synchro excitation, it automatical-
ly upgrades its operating mode from Pneumatic to Electric. This causes the 542E
Lamp to illuminate and the 542P Lamp to extinguish on the ACS/3A.
(c) If the synchro excitation is disabled while operating in the Electric mode, the DFR
remains in the Electric mode until power is reset. The RECORDER OFF Light
comes on in 32 seconds after loss of synchro excitation.

(a) In the ARINC 573 Mode, the three indicator lamps used are as follows:
RECORDER FAULT – Aircraft warning indicator panel.
DFR STATUS – FDEP panel.
FDAU STATUS – FDEP panel.
(b) The RECORDER FAULT Lamp indicates a system (DFR & FDAU) problem.
(c) The FDAU STATUS Lamp lights when a fault is detected inside the FDAU.
(d) The DFDR STATUS Lamp lights when a fault signal is detected inside the DFR.
(e) Two bi–directional lines serve as output from the CPU to indicate automatic mode
selection (542E & 573). These lines are also inputs to sense external stimuli. Exter-
nal test equipment should pull these lines high (2 mA max).

NOTES:
Certain DFR configurations use presence of voltage (26 Vac) to determine recording configuration of
pneumatic or electric for Altitude or Indicated Airspeed.
Failure Indicator circuitry in the aircraft.
+27.5 Vdc is not required by the Fairchild DFR.
If lateral acceleration is not used, DC7 can be used with an external reference of 5 Vdc or 12 Vdc.
The input signal is 5 Vdc or 12 Vdc, max., respectively.
Binaries of J1A–45 & –46 are shunt type inputs (short to ground is active).
All DFR dc inputs (DC0 through DC7) are LLDC, 0 to 5 Vdc (if input is open, output is zero). All DFR
Synchro Inputs are designated for 3–leg, 11.8 Vrms signals, but can accommodate a ”DC Synchro” or
a ”DC Signal with DC Reference and Common” (up to approx. 18 Vdc).
Two–wire or three–wire dc volt Synchro Input requirements are as follows: (1) ”X” is Gnd., ”Z” is Ref-
erence, ”Y” is Signal; (2) 26 Vac, 400 Hz (C) & (H) must be supplied from a Synchro or J1A–28 &
–29. If a 2–wire dc synchro input is used (i.e., no “Z” ref., pin must remain open), an internal 6 Vdc is
used. This can only be done to four input channels (i.e., IAS, ALTC, ENG 1, & ENG 2).

3. Theory of Operation
±An analysis of the primary circuits in the DFR is given in the following paragraphs.
A. Synchro/Multiplexer
The signals which are required for each Synchro input are shown in the Block Diagram in
Figure 28 (or shown in Schematic Diagram A3 or A4) as the X, Y, and Z Synchro signals (each
120 apart) and the Cold (C) and Hot (H) components of the differential Excitation signal.
Since there are six possible synchro inputs, there are six X, Y, and Z Synchro signals and six C
and H Excitation signals that are input to each of five bus–controlled multiplexers (U1 – U5) on
the board. When a specific address is issued by the CPU, one of the six input signal sets (i.e.,
one X, Y, Z, C, and H combination) is allowed to pass to the resolving circuitry and eventually
output from the board.
Once one of the Synchro signal sets passes through the multiplexers, it must be resolved into its
sine and cosine components, and the Excitation signal transformed into a Reference signal. The
latter is accomplished by applying the C and H Excitation signals through Differential Amplifier,
U7D, eliminating common mode and producing a single–ended Reference signal, (C–H)/4.
In the case of the Synchro signals, the resolver circuitry is based on the following fundamental
synchro equations:
(1) X–Y = A Sin t Sin

(2) Y–Z = A Sin t Sin ( + 120)
where “A Sin t” is the amplitude of the excitation signal, and “” is the angle of the Synchro
Transducer’s rotor. Assuming that “A Sin t” will be normalized, scaling the X, Y signals by
–1/2 at U6A and U6B and subtracting them at U6C will produce an output of (X–Y)/2, which is
directly proportional to the Sine of the Synchro–Rotor angle.
Combining Equations 1 & 2, above, and solving for Cos :
(3) Cos = [(X+Y)/2–Z] 1.154,
To produce this result, the Z signal is subtracted from the scaled sum of the X & Y signals to
produce [(X+Y/2)–Z]. The multiplication factor is obtained by the two 115.4k feedback resistors
of Op Amp U6D. The resultant signal is directly proportional to the Cosine of the Synchro–Rotor
angle.
The Reference, Sine, and Cosine signals are input to three multiplexers, U9, U8A, and U8B, al-
lowing the CPU to select between this resolved synchro signal set or another such set from a
second Synchro/Multiplexer board. The selected set is then routed to the Synchro/Digital Con-
verter.
In addition to these functions, the Synchro/Multiplexer board also detects the presence of the
Altitude Coarse Excitation signal with a Level Test circuit and outputs a /542E MODE signal to
the CPU. This causes the CPU to select the ARINC 542 Electric software for processing (i.e.,
the Electric 542 Configuration software described in paragraph 2.B.(2), above).

B. Synchro/Digital Converter
(1) Block Diagram Description (See Figure 30)
Before proceeding with a circuit description of the Synchro/Digital Converter, it is important

to note that it is customary to make the resultant digital word represent an angle between
0 and 360 in the following way:
MSB 2SB
0 0 = 0 – 90
1 1 = 90 – 180
1 0 = 180 – 270
0 1 = 270 – 360
where MSB is the Most Significant Bit and 2SB is the 2nd Most Significant Bit. This
means that the first two Significant Bits determine the quadrant the Synchro rotor is turned
to: 0,0 represents the first quadrant (i.e., the angle would be less than 90); 1,1 repre-
sents the second quadrant; 1,0 represents the third; and 0,1 represents the fourth. (Note:
this method of representing quadrants is NOT the same as the polarities of the sine/cosine
functions, as shown in the tables in Figure 30.)

In the case of the Fairchild Model F800, the first two digits (i.e., MSB and 2SB) of the out-
put 12–bit digital word are determined prior to the actual synchro/digital conversion by con-
verting the polarities of the sine/cosine functions to their MSB/2SB equivalents. As shown
in Figure 30, this is done by clocking in and comparing the polarities at the negative peak

of the Reference signal, converting them to their digital quadrant equivalents, and output-
ting the resultant MSB and 2SB into the two Most Significant Bits of the 12–bit Output
Latch.
The remaining 10 bits (i.e., 0 – 90 for that quadrant) are determined in a Successive
Approximation Register (SAR) in conjunction with Multiplying DAC’s for both the sine and
cosine functions. (This operation is explained in more detail in the Schematic Diagram
discussion, below.) The 400–Hz Reference signal is used to initiate sampling of the sine
and cosine functions when their amplitudes are maximum. As shown in the waveform dia-
gram, Figure 31, triggering occurs at the zero crossing of the negative–going /REF, 45
REF, and /90 REF.

The leading edge of the /REF square wave is used to trigger a BEGIN and a FOUR–
CYCLE GATE signal when a START CONVERSION signal is received from the CPU.
Then for each of the four cycles, both the leading edge and the trailing edge of the 45
REF signal continually triggers a /START SAR signal to start the conversion at the Succes-
sive Approximation Register (SAR). This results in eight conversions for each four–cycle
period of /REF.
The /90 REF signal is used to trigger the level check and the polarity–to–digital conver-
sion of the Sine/Cosine functions. This places the MSB and 2SB bits in the first two most
significant bit locations in the register which holds the eight Most Significant Bits of the
12–bit output word.
When the SAR completes its conversion (in about 0.6 msec) during the four–cycle period,
it sends an S/D COMPLETE signal through the Interface II card to the CPU. The two
three–state output latches will then output their portion of the 12–bit digital signal when
they are strobed by the CPU (see Record Error Tables, Figure 33).
(2) Schematic Diagram Description (See Appendix A: Figures A5 and A6)
The entire Synchro–to–Digital conversion cannot commence until the S/D START CON-
VERSION signal is received from the CPU through Interface II. In addition, the 400–Hz
Reference signal must be received from the Synchro/Multiplexer and applied to Op Amps
U1A, B, and C. U1A produces the /REF square–wave signal which clocks flip–flops U2B,
U3A, and U4A. RC network R1, C1 delays the Reference signal by 45, producing the 45
REF output at U1B; R2, C2 delays it another 45, and U1C inverts it to produce the /90
REF output.

When the REF signal is received after S/D START, /REF clocks U2B, producing a high Q
output at U2B–13. However, U3A cannot pass this logic–high BEGIN signal to U3B until
the second downward zero crossing of the 400–Hz REF. The latter therefore produces a
BEGIN signal a minimum of one reference cycle after S/D START goes high.
Multivibrator U8 produces a clocking signal of approximately 16 kHz which clocks out the
BEGIN signal at U3B–13. This sets the Four–Cycle Counter Flip–Flops U4A, U4B, and
U5A, causing U5A–1 to go high, and resets Delay–Circuit Flip–Flops U2A, U2B, and U3A.
The next clocking edge of the 16–kHz signal clocks the BEGIN signal low, producing the
leading edge of the FOUR–CYCLE GATE signal.
Each /REF pulse after the BEGIN signal returns to low will clock the Counting Flip–Flops,
which hold U5A–1 high until four counts (i.e., four REF cycles) have passed. The resulting
FOUR–CYCLE GATE is applied to AND Gate U6A along with a LEVELS OK signal.
U1D, U6B & C, U11A & B, U16 and their associated circuitry comprise the Level Checking
circuit designed to determine that REF is greater than 5 V pk and that COS and SIN are
greater than 3 V pk. Flip–Flop U5B passes the resultant LEVELS OK signal to AND Gate
U6A. When both signals are present, U7A/U7B is set. Then when U7A receives the SAR
END signal from the SAR, U7A/U7B issues an S/D COMPLETE signal to the CPU through
Interface II. If either the LEVELS OK or the FOUR–CYCLE GATE signal are not present,
the CPU will not receive an S/D COMPLETE signal and the S/D Converter latches will not
be strobed for their outputs.
U11C and U11D combined with Exclusive OR Gate U10B form the conversion circuitry for
changing the Sine/Cosine polarity to the equivalent digital–word quadrant as shown in
Figure 30. The polarity of the Sine and Cosine functions are stored in dual flip–flops U12A
and B until the latter are clocked by the /90 REF signal to pass them to U10B and the
MSB/2SB outputs.
In the first quadrant when /SIN and /COS are both low, MSB and 2SB are low. However,
in the third quadrant when /SIN and /COS are both high, Exclusive OR U10B will prevent
2SB from going high, resulting in 1,0 for MSB,2SB. In the second quadrant when /SIN is
high and /COS is low, U10B will pass the high to 2SB resulting in 1,1 for MSB,2SB. This is
done to allow a smooth increase and/or decrease at the quadrant decision points, ex-
plained in the paragraphs below.
Figure A5, Sheet 3 shows the multiplying DAC’s U14 and U18 and the Successive Approx-
imation Register (SAR) U19 (or in Figure A6, the dual SAR’s U25 and U26). Rectifiers
U13A, U13B, U13C, and U13D convert the polarities of the Sine/Cosine functions to the
first quadrant, so that the inputs to the Multiplying DAC’s U14 and U18 are always –SIN
and –COS, respectively.
The analog output of U18 at TP8 is the product of a 10–bit number, “X,” and the –COS
analog input. Since the multiplier inverts, the output is X Cos . This 10–bit number from
the SAR is also applied through inverters to U14, the DAC for multiplying –Sin . The in-
version causes the 1023’s complement of X to be multiplied by the Sine, resulting in
(1023–X)Sin as the output at TP9. U17B compares the outputs at TP8 and TP9 and
applies the difference to the D input of the SAR U25/U26. Through successive approxima-
tions the SAR adjusts X so that (1023–X) Sin = X Cos after 10 clock cycles of the 16
kHz signal.

The algorithm shown in A6, can then be used by the Fairchild–Weston ground equipment
to determine the original angle of the Synchro from X, the 12–bit digital word output. This
is done by taking the Arc Tangent of the ratio, X/(1023–X).
As goes from 0 up to 90, the 12–bit output digital word goes from 000000000000 to
001111111111. It might be expected that the next higher word would be 010000000000.
However, this abrupt change is avoided by converting the 10 LSB digits to their comple-
ments when passing from the first to the second quadrant and from the third to the fourth
(i.e., whenever 2SB is a Logic 1). This is done by inputting the 2SB and each of the 10
LSB bits into Exclusive OR Gates U20A – D, U21A – D, and U22A & B. Thus, the first
word at 90 will be 011111111111, the next will be 011111111110, etc.
This results in a smooth increase to 90, followed by a smooth decrease to 180, another
increase to 270, and a final decrease to 360. Therefore, there are no abrupt changes
between quadrants.
The resulting 12–bit output is clocked into Output Latches U23 and U24 by the S/D COM-
PLETE signal from U7B (see A5 (Sheet 3) or A6). Since the CPU Microprocessor will only
accept an 8–bit parallel word, the S/D Output Bus has only 8 lines. The first eight MSB’s of
the 12–bit word is held by Latch 23, whose output is tied to all eight lines of the S/D Bus.
Latch U24 holds the first 4 LSB’s of the 12–bit word, and as shown in the figure, its output
is also tied to the first 4 lines of the S/D Bus.
In order to output the entire12–bit S/D word, therefore, the CPU first enables Latch U23
through pin P for the upper 8 MSB’s, and then enables U24 through pin U for the remain-
ing 4 LSB’s. The S/D Bus routes both segments of the S/D Word in sequence to Interface
II for transmission to the CPU.
C. Analog/Digital Converter (542 Expanded)
(1) Block Diagram Description (See Figure 34)
As shown in Figure 34, up to eight analog signals can be input to the A/D Multiplexer for
selection by the CPU for conversion. Altitude inputs are factory adjusted for full–scale
(50,000 ft.) and zero (sea level) at the Op Amps reserved for these inputs. The A/D will
also differentiate between external ac or dc Accelerometers and will convert their analog
positive and negative G forces into the appropriate digital words.
The A/D supplies a precise 5.000 mA current sink source for an external Total Air Temper-
ature (TAT) transducer. The resultant TAT output is also converted to a digital word suit-
able for recording.
The actual conversion is initiated by the CPU with the START CONVERSION input which
is also synchronized with the 400–Hz reference and an internal 18–kHz clock. The latter
clocks a Successive Approximation Register (SAR) through its 12 bits in less than 1 ms.
When conversion is complete, the SAR issues an A/D COMPLETE to the CPU and a
STROBE to two CPU–controlled latches in the Interface II board. The CPU can then
strobe the 12–bit signal held in the latch into the Write Amplifier at the appropriate time.

(2) Schematic Diagram Description (See Appendix A: Figures A7 – A10)
NOTE: The ARINC 542A and Expanded Parameter version of the A/D Converter is
shown in A9; the ARINC 542 version is shown in A7/A8. The newest A/D
Converter which replaces all others, is shown in A10.
If a Dual– or Tri–Axial DC Accelerometer is used in the aircraft, it’s Vertical Acceleration

output is connected to Connector J7, pins 18 & 19, as shown in A9, Sheet 2 (see also
Figure 35, Sheets 1 & 2, for the internal pin connections for the Tri–Axial & Dual–Axial DC
Accelerometers, respectively). The DFR defaults to this input since the Select SA and SB
inputs for Triple 2–Channel Multiplexer, U6, is initially pulled low by U3A. If a DC Accel-
erometer is being used, differential amplifier U1A will produce an output from 0.2 to 5 Vdc,
which is lower than the +8 Vdc reference of detector U3A, keeping SA and SB of U6 low
and the inputs connected to Y0A and Y0B.
However, if an AC Accelerometer is used, it will be connected to Connector J7, Pins K and

21 (Pins 28 and 25 of J1A), leaving Pins 19 and 18 open. R53 and R54 will pull these
lines to +12 Vdc and –12 Vdc, respectively. The output of U1A will then be considerably
larger than the +8 Vdc reference and will cause U3A to produce a high output. This
causes U6 to switch to the AC Accelerometer input at Y1A and Y1B.
The signal output of the AC Vertical Accelerometer is either in phase or out of phase with
the Excitation signal, depending on the mode of the G forces applied. For a G force of –3
G, the peak amplitude of the signal, which is in phase with the Excitation signal, is –3.771
V. For a +6 G force, the peak amplitude of the signal is +4.714 V, and the signal is out of
phase with the Excitation signal (see Figure 36).

The Excitation signal of the Vertical AC Accelerometer is applied to pin J7–21. The nega-
tive cycle of the Excitation signal is applied through CR1 to the negative input of Op Amp
U1C, which has a gain of about 1/2. The resultant positive output is essentially a dc signal
used as the Vertical Acceleration Reference for the AC Accelerometer and passed from
the Y1A input of U6 to the ZA output.
The Vertical AC Accelerometer Signal is applied through pin J7–K to the positive input of
Op Amp U5B and the Y1C input of Mux U6. As shown in Figure 36, the Accelerometer
signal output voltage will be positive (i.e., out of phase with the Excitation signal) for posi-
tive G’s (above 1 G) and negative for negative G’s (below 1 G). However, the actual out-
put of the Accelerometer deviates from this ideal picture since there is a phase lag or lead
between the Excitation and the output signal. It is therefore important to sample the output
ac signal during the proper portion of the Excitation signal cycle. On this board, this sam-
pling occurs during the negative cycle of the Excitation signal, but only after the output be-
gins a new cycle.
This sequence is accomplished through the action of a Trigger Circuit composed of Op

Amp U5B, Exclusive OR Gate U2A, and Flip–Flop U10B. During the positive cycle of the
Excitation signal, U1B will produce the START CONVERSION CLOCK signal (delayed 45
from the Excitation signal) and trigger U10B so that the D input will be passed to the Q out-
put. This causes the output of U5B to appear at both inputs to Exclusive OR Gate U2A,
which in turn outputs a Low signal to SC of U6 and connects ZC to the ground at Y0C.
U3C and its associated circuitry constitute a two–pole, low–pass filter with gain and level–
shifting which supplies a detected (DC) Vertical Accelerometer Signal at input

Y1B of U6. This signal has the same range and similar offset to the signal that would be
applied to Y0B of U6 if a DC Accelerometer were used.
During the negative cycle of the Excitation signal, the Accelerometer Signal changes polar-
ity (i.e., starts a new cycle), and the output of U5B changes logic states, resulting in two
different signals at inputs 1 and 2 at U2A. As a result, a high signal is applied to SC. This
connects the Signal input at Y1C of U6 to the U3C circuit. Thus, the output signal from
the Accelerometer is conditioned by the U3C circuit and input to the conversion circuitry
only during the proper proportion of its cycle regardless of its phase lag or lead relative to
the Excitation signal.
The gain of U3C is such that maximum positive G’s will produce a positive output at TP4
matching the Reference signal at TP2, which can be adjusted at R1. At maximum nega-
tive G’s, U3C will produce a negative voltage which will pull TP4 down to a small positive
voltage determined by the adjustment of R7. Allowable error from a Standard Acceleration
of +6 g’s to –3 g’s is ±0.2 g’s.
The Total Air Temperature (TAT) transducer is external to the DFR, but requires a constant
5 mA current of high accuracy. Such a source (actually a current sink) is provided by a
“Howland Current Sink,” U3B, shown at the bottom of A9, Sheet 2. A 5% Zener Diode,
CR9, provides a regulated dc input to Voltage Follower U1D which is adjusted at R18 to
produce a 5.000 Vdc source voltage for the Howland Sink. Since the current sinking capa-
bility of U3B is inadequate for the circuit, its output is buffered through the use of Transistor
Q2. CR10 and CR11 clamp the output voltage range between –12 Vdc and ground.
In this Current Sink circuit, the constant current through the load is maintained by monitor-
ing the input voltage at U3B– pin 6 and appropriately adjusting the collector voltage of Q2.
Under these circumstances, the current sink through R22 is always equal to the current
through R21 plus the constant 5 ma load current.
On Sheet 3 of A9, U4A – U4D are four differential amplifiers used to condition three input
signals and one reference signal for DC7. Both branches of each differential input pass
through a 100k ohm, 1000 pF low pass filter and are clamped to +12 Vdc and –12 Vdc lim-
its by diodes CR12 and CR13. If inputs are open (i.e., not used), the output count for the
appropriate word will be zero.
Since no output should be greater than 10 Vdc maximum for proper operation of the con-
version circuitry, provision has been made to limit the gain for the DC7 inputs. Thus, if an
analog signal with a maximum voltage greater than 10 V is to be recorded, both it and its
Reference should be input at the DC7 and DC7 REF inputs with shunts E1–E2, E3–E4,
E5–E6, and E7–E8 connected to short out half of the feedback resistance and reduce the
gain to 1/2.
The TAT is shown on this Sheet as coming into connector J7 pins 23 and AA from a loca-
tion external to the DFR. It can be seen that the resistance of the TAT varies from 301
ohms at –100C to 785 ohms at +150C. Since 5.000 mA is constantly flowing through it
from the Howland Current Sink, the voltage across the TAT will vary from –1.550 Vdc to
–3.925 Vdc over this 250C temperature range and be output at DC6.

Two more differential–amplifier input circuits are shown on Sheet 4 of A9. The circuit using
Op Amp U5C is reserved for the DC Longitudinal Accelerometer input; the circuit using Op
Amp U5A is unassigned.
The Indicated Air Speed (IAS) Signal is input directly at pin J7–S and its Reference at pin
J7–17; and the Altimeter Signal is input at pin J7–J with its Reference at pin J7–8. The
Altimeter Signal is input through bridge amplifier U3D equipped with Zero and Gain offset
for adjustment at the factory.
All eight Signals to be converted, plus their Reference voltage, are input to Mux’s U7 and
U8, respectively. The signal to be converted is selected by the CPU through the 3–bit Mux
Address inputs, A0, A1, and A2.
The final Sheet (No. 5) of A9 shows the heart of the A/D Converter: the 12–bit Succes-
sive Approximation Register, U14, and the 12–bit Multiplying D/A Converter, U12. The
operation of this circuit is initiated first by the CPU with an A/D START CONVERSION sig-
nal input to flip–flop U9A which clocks its Q output Low. Then a START CONVERSION
CLOCK signal derived from the AC Vertical Accelerometer Excitation signal clocks the Q
output of U9B Low. This, in turn, causes the Q output of U10A to be clocked Low by the
18–kHz clock output from oscillator U15A/U15B. This sets back U9A & U9B to their origi-
nal state and causes a Low to be applied to the Start Input (/S) of U14. On the next rising
edge of the 18–kHz clock, this input goes High again, allowing the conversion to start.
When the pulse is applied to the Start input of U14, the MSB at Q11 is set Low and the
remaining 11 outputs are set High. This is converted by U12 to an analog signal which is
exactly 1/2 the amplitude of the input Reference signal from U11A and U11D. The signal
selected at U8 (Sheet 4) is input to Voltage Comparator U13 which compares it with the
output of the D/A Converter.
The output of Comparator U13 will then set the MSB High if the input signal is greater than
1/2 the Reference minus 1 LSB, or it will leave it Low if it is less. The next pulse from the
18–kHz clock will keep the MSB at this value and set Q10 Low and Q9 – Q0 High. Then
this signal is converted by D/A U12 and compared to the input signal at U13. Assuming
that the input signal is not equal to half the Reference (i.e., that MSB is “0”), this next com-
parison determines if the input is greater or less than 1/4 the Reference; that is, it decides
whether MSB–1 should be “1” or “0.”
This successive approximation will continue until all 12 bits have been properly converted
to the value of the input analog signal. When the last bit at Q0 has been determined, U14
will issue a pulse output at /CC which triggers an A/D COMPLETE to the CPU, indicating
that the conversion is completed. It also causes flip–flops U16A & B to issue a STROBE
to the three–state latch on Interface II to latch in the completed digital word.
D. Pneumatic Altitude Transducer

The Altitude Transducer assembly provides a linear relationship between the input aircraft atmo-
spheric pressure (altitude) and an output electrical analog voltage suitable for conversion to digi-
tal form by the A/D Converter, as shown in the Block Diagram (Figure 38).
The static pressure (aircraft altitude) causes a displacement in a diaphragm rigidly connected to
a magnetically permeable core, as shown in Figure 37. The difference between the two second-

signal for the Linear Variable Differential Transformer (LVDT) primary winding is supplied by
an on–board oscillator at approximately 5 kHz.

Magnetic Coupling of LVDT in Altitude Transducer

Figure 37
Although the LVDT produces an output which is in one–to–one correspondence with the dia-
phragm displacement, the displacement itself is not linear, as shown in Figure 39. This can be
corrected electronically with the proper feedback circuit.
The correction is accomplished by feeding back a correction voltage in the excitation signal
which supplies the primary winding of the LVDT and produces the LVDT output, E. In this case,
a feedback circuit is used which multiplies the Signal Processor output by the shape correction
factor, (1/2 + K), as shown in Figure 38. The resultant signal is fed back to the Oscillator Gain
Control along with the E2 component of the LVDT and the +5.000 Vdc Reference.
If we combine all these signals at this point, we obtain:
E(1 – y + y + 2Ky) – Eref = 0
where “E” is the total LVDT output, “K” is the correction factor, “y” is the core deflection, and
“Eref” is the Reference voltage.
Solving for E;
E = Eref/(1 + 2Ky)
The feedback circuit therefore creates a non–linear, hyperbolic correction of 1/(1 + 2Ky) whose
magnitude can be adjusted to fit an ideal curve by the proper selection of K. This factor is se-
lected at the factory for each Pressure Transducer by selecting individual trimming resistors (la-
beled “TAT” Figure A28) and adjusting pots R145, R147, R150, R113. The resultant transducer
assembly output is extremely linear as a function of altitude or pressure.

In addition, in order to keep the output accurate and linear over the temperature range, the tem-
perature correction circuit RT1, RT2, CR105–1, CR105–2, and U106–1 shown in Figure A28 is
used to trim the gain and offset.
The total error of the pressure transducer is only 0.3% over the full temperature range. Be-
cause of the extensive Test and Trimming procedure performed at the factory, no further cus-
tomer trimming of gain and offset is required. The specified military temperature range is very
wide and the total error encompasses all effects caused by thermal variations in this range (see
Altitude Record Error Table in Figure 33, Sheet 3, for allowable error).
E. Airspeed Transducer (See Appendix A: Figure A29)
The Airspeed Transducer Assembly is similar in design to the Altitude Transducer, and the func-
tional operation description in paragraph D, above, applies here as well. However, this transduc-
er is a differential–pressure device with the total pressure (static pressure plus the pressure
components due to airspeed) connected to one side of the sensor, while the static pressure,
alone, is connected to the other. Thus, the printed circuit card edge connector is offset slightly
with respect to the Altitude board to prevent the inadvertent interchange of the two boards.
The Airspeed Transducer Assembly is designed to output an electrical analog voltage ranging
from 0 Vdc to +5 Vdc for input differential pressures of 0 to 6 PSID (see Air Speed Record Error
Table in Figure 33, Sheet 2, for allowable error),
The Airspeed and Altitude Assemblies are supplied from the factory as matched pairs, and their
respective oscillators are synchronized to reduce system noise. If it becomes necessary to re-
place one or the other, both must be replaced with a matched set obtained from the factory.

F. Interface I & BITE (See Figure 40 & Appendix A: Figures A11 – A15)
(1) Overall Operation of Interface I
Interface I accepts data input from the Flight Data Acquisition Unit (FDAU) during ARINC
573/717 operation. It also has the Built–In Test Equipment (BITE) to verify proper opera-
tion prior to and during flight. When a fault is detected by the sensing circuits, fault indica-
tors on the aircraft Flight Data Entry Panel (FDEP) are illuminated.
In the ARINC 573/717 Configuration, data from the FDAU is input to Differential Line Re-
ceiver U7A and output at pin 3. In order to trigger the CPU to receive the data in the
573/717 mode, the initial data is delayed for 250 ms by the action of R38/C47 (see Figure
A15 (Sheet 2) and then detected by Mode Detector U12. When the data is detected, U12
sends an active–low 573/717 MODE signal to the CPU which then executes the 573/717
Mode software (Section 2.B, page Page 28).

In the event of a temporary power outage, it is important for the CPU to know which Mode
it was in so that data is recorded in the proper format as soon as power comes back up.
For this reason, R34/C51 is attached to the plus terminal of U12 with approximately the
same value as R38/C47. This allows both to decay at the same rate when power is lost,
keeping their relationship intact for as long as 20 seconds. If power comes back up in that
period, the output of U12 will be the same as it was when power was lost, and the CPU
resume operation in the correct mode.
U12 also controls the operation of Relay K4 through transistor Q9. When the DFR is in
the 573/717 Mode, the base of Q9 is pulled low, shutting off current through K4.

Therefore, in its de–energized condition, K4 indicates 573/717 operation, and in its ener-
gized condition, it indicates 542 Mode.
The rest of the action which takes place in Interface I is related to the BITE circuitry and is
described in the following paragraphs.
(2) BITE Circuitry for Read/Write and Power Failures
During 573/717 operation, a fault signal (/FAULT) received from the CPU will suppress the
573/717 data echo through the action of NAND Gate U5B. This will prohibit the BI–Phase
data from passing NAND Gate U5C, preventing the echo or ”Handshake” from passing on
to Differential Line Driver U8A. The absence of the echo is used to indicate to the Flight
Data Acquisition Unit (FDAU) that a fault condition is present.
Read and Write Data is received from the CPU at pins 13 and 55 (Figure A15, Sheet 2)
and fed to NAND Gates U2B and U2C, respectively. When positive pulses occur at these
inputs, the outputs of the NAND Gates will go Low, causing a Low input to appear at the
dual Trigger inputs to Dual Timer U3. These Low NAND outputs will also turn ON Transis-
tors Q7 and Q6, pulling the dual Threshold inputs Low and discharging capacitors C17 and
C18.
As long as the Threshold inputs are continually pulsed, the outputs, Q1 and Q2, of U3 will
be High. If the Read or Write signals are absent for more than 8 seconds, however, C17
and C18 will change to the threshold voltage and the output of Q1 or Q2 will go Low. If
both of these outputs are High and the fault signal /FAULT is not received from the CPU,
all of the inputs to NAND Gate U5B will be High, producing a Low output indicating a no–
fault condition.
When any one of the inputs to U5B goes low (i.e., because of a /FAULT signal, or an 8–se-
cond absence of the WRITE or READ data), a fault condition will occur causing a High out-
put FAULT at U5B and a Low output /FAULT at Inverter U10E. In addition, Q4 is supplied
with enough base current through R28 to cause it to saturate, cutting off Q5. This causes
Relay K3 to be de–energized and allows Q8 to saturate, energizing Relay K1.
If there is a failure in the +5V, +12V, or –12V power, the Q1, Q2, Q3 circuit will again re-
move the base current from Q5, affecting relays K1 and K3 in exactly the same way. This
causes the RECORDER OFF light to turn on.
(3) BITE Circuitry for Track–Change Logic
The DFR has 6 tracks which are recorded in sequence. In order to make sure that the
DFR has switched to a new track at the end of the entire loop of tape and is recording
properly, a unique pattern of 100 ms or 300 ms blanks is recorded every half second on
each track. For example, if the signal on Track 1 is interrupted for 100 ms every 1/2 sec,
then it will be interrupted on Track 2 for 300 ms every 1/2 sec, and will continue alternating
patterns this way through all 6 tracks. The patterns will then be interchanged after all 6
tracks have been recorded once, so that the signal is interrupted for 300 ms on Track 1,
100 ms on Track 2, and so on.
The hardware detection circuitry shown in the Monostable Multivibrator U14 circuit in Fig-
ure A15, Sheet 3, is designed to detect these pulses and determine two things:

(1) are the blanks occurring less than a second apart, and, (2) are they less than or greater
than 200 ms (i.e., are they short pulses or long ones).
The first is accomplished by U14 which generates a Logic High output as long as it is trig-
gered within 823 ms. When a blank longer than 25 ms is detected by U1, it generates a
positive–going signal which triggers U14 and clocks Flip–Flops U4A and U9A. If retrigger-
ing occurs within the 823–ms time period, the High output of U14 will be clocked into U4A,
which will pass it to AND Gate U2A, indicating that a blank has occurred within 1 second
(actually less than 823 ms).
At End of Data plus 25 ms (which is shown as EOD+T1 in Figure A15) U1 will also trans-
mit a Logic Low to the trigger input of U11A. This Multivibrator will maintain a High output
for 200 ms and then output a Low signal if it isn’t triggered again within that period. This
will occur in the case of either the 100–ms or 300–ms blank pattern, causing Inverter U10F
to clock U4B. In the case of a 100–ms blank pattern, U11A will clock U4B after U1–12 (TP
2) has gone Low, causing U4B–5 to go Low (U4B–6 to go High). In the case of a 300–ms
blank pattern, U11A will clock U4B while U1–12 is still high, causing U4B–5 to go High.
The CPU transmits a Logic High PHASE B signal to pin 37 when it is writing short blanks
and a Low PHASE B signal when it is writing long ones. If the CPU is writing long blanks,
it will transmit a Low PHASE B signal (i.e., a /PHASE B) which is inverted by U10C and
applied to U6–4. If short blanks are being written, the CPU will provide a High PHASE B
signal at U6–3. Therefore, only detection of the correct pattern will cause U6–6 to go Low,
causing U9A–14 (TRACK OK) to go High when it is clocked by U1–12 on the next occur-
rence of a blank.
If a fault condition is detected by this BITE circuitry and a Low TRACK OK signal (i.e.,
TRACK is NOT OK) is transmitted to the CPU, a fault signal will be generated by the CPU
only after 16 or more seconds has elapsed after the track change. When the CPU verifies
that a fault has occurred, a Low FAULT signal is transmitted to AND Gate U5B (Figure
A15, Sheet 2), which will cause the echo signal to be disabled and the operational state of
Relays 1 and 3 to change (see Section (2), above), making the fault light turn ON.
The recorder will now go into a search mode to find a good portion of the tape. When it
does, it will again commence recording, but will leave the fault light ON so that the cockpit
crew will be aware that the DFR contains a fault. This fault can be cleared by cycling the
DFR power OFF and ON.
G. Interface II – Without Frequency (See Block Diagram in Figure 41)

NOTE: The 542A (expanded) version of Interface II is shown in Schematic A17; the 542
(non–expanded) version of Interface II is shown in Schematic A16. The Frequen-
cy input versions are shown in Figure A18. However the newest versions of all
these boards are replacec with A19.
Interface II is a multi–function board which provides a compatible data/control interface between
the CPU and the other DFR boards. The functions include level shifting, parameter decode/con-
trol, and data word manipulation to handle the input 12–bit words on the 8–bit data bus to the
CPU (see Figure 41).

(1) CMOS/TTL Level–Shifter Interface
One of the main functions of the Interface II board is to provide a compatible interface be-
tween CMOS integrated circuits operating at +12 Vdc and the CPU Input/ Output (I/O) in-
terface circuitry operating at TTL levels of +5 Vdc. Level shifters U1, U5, U6, and U9 are
used to perform this function.
(2) Analog–to–Digital (A/D) Converter Inputs
The Microprocessor I/O consists of bi–directional ports through which 8–bit parallel data
can be transmitted to and from the board. Therefore, in order to handle the 12–bit parallel
word output of the A/D Converter, the Interface II board receives it at two Octal Latches,
U7 and U8. U7 receives the top 8 Most Significant Bits (MSB), and U8 receives the re-
maining 4 Least Significant Bits (LSB).
When the CPU receives the A/D RDY signal, it strobes both U7 and U8 latches and sets
Bus A input High and Bus B input Low (see Figure A17). These signals are converted to
CMOS levels at U9 and are decoded by Demultiplexer U11. The resultant MSB BYTE sig-
nal causes U7 to release its output to CMOS/TTL Converters U5 and U6 and the output
Octal Inverting Latch U10. The data stored in the latch is placed on the bus when the CPU
sets the ENABLE BUS signal Low. This signal is set High after the data has been re-
ceived.
Once it has received the 8 MSB bits, the CPU sets the Bus A input Low and the Bus B and
ENABLE BUS inputs Low. As a result, the output of U7 is disabled and U8 releases its
data to the CPU. This completes the transmission of the entire 12–bit A/D word along with
the other four discrete bit inputs.
(3) S/D Converter Inputs
When it is time to access the S/D Word, the S/D RDY line will go high to trigger the output
latches on the S/D board. However, in this case selection of the MSB and LSB portions of
the 12–bit word is performed on the S/D board, itself (at Latches U23 and U24 shown in
Figure A5, Sheet 3). The enabling MSB BYTE and LSB BYTE signals are again gener-
ated over Buses A and B and transmitted to the S/D board (see Figure A5). The resultant
sequential 8–bit and 4–bit portions of the S/D Word are converted to TTL logic levels by
U5 and U6 and output through U10 to the CPU.
H. Interface II – With Frequency (See Block Diagram in Figure 42)

NOTE: The 542A (expanded with frequency) version of Interface II is shown in Schemat-
ic Figure A18. However, the newest Interface II boards are all replaced by Figure
A19.
(1) General Configuration of A/D, S/D, and CMOS/TTL Level–Shifter Interface.
These functions of the 542A (expanded with frequency) version of Interface II are identical
to those of 542A (expanded) version described in G., above.

(2) Frequency–to–Digital (F/D) Converter Interface with CPU
Figure 42 is an abbreviated version of the block diagram for this Interface, showing a high-
lighted area for the portion which converts the frequencies to digital form for further proces-
sing by the DFR. Table 1, given in Figure 42, lists which terminals to strap (see Figure
A18, Sheet 3) for the five different frequency ranges.
Two each of the available frequency inputs are multiplexed into two 16–bit counters, Freq.
1 and Freq. 2. The 16–bit count is transformed to a 12–bit, floating binary point format by
the CPU by a method which will be described below.
Each counter begins measuring the period of the next four cycles of the input frequency
multiplexed to it as soon as the CPU ends the period when the counter’s high byte is en-
abled to drive the bus. This provides a more accurate determination of when the
frequency/period was measured, but means that the CPU must set the multiplexer to the
next frequency just before it takes the data from the present one. It also means that the
high byte must be taken last.
Two decoders control the output enables of eight registers and control the states of two
flip–flops that control the frequency multiplexers. The decoders are connected to form a
16–bit decoder where addresses 0 – 7 gate lows to output enables and addresses 8 – 11
gate highs to set and reset the multiplex flip–flops.
The decoder address lines are operated by CPU lines A and B and address decodes /04 –
/07. Bus A and B are addresses A & B; addresses C and D are set by /07 & /05 and
cleared by /04 & /06. Bus A is the least significant bit.
Addresses:
0 OE LO S/D 6 OE LO FREQ 1
1 OE HI A/D 7 OE HI FREQ1
2 OE HI S/D 8 SET INPUT 1 TO FREQ #1 Selected
3 OE LO A/D 9 SET INPUT 2 TO FREQ #1 though
4 OE LO FREQ 2 10 SET INPUT 3 TO FREQ #2 multiplex
5 OE HI FREQ 2 11 SET INPUT 4 TO FREQ #2 flip–flops
For the 16– to 12–bit conversion, the upper three bits locate the MSB and the next nine
bits are the Next Most Significant Bits. If the MSB is found in bit 15, it is replaced with 111
and bits 14 – 6 are attached to make the 12–bit word. This continues until finally the MSB
in bit 9 is replaced with 001 and bits 8 – 0 attached. However, if the MSB is below bit 9,
000 is used and bits 8 – 0 attached. Thus, a 10–bit result is sent over seven octaves.
(3) Trip and Date Inputs
Along with the Microphone, Binary A, and Binary 1/Marker Beacon inputs, Octal Latch U8
also receives the Trip and Date Inputs.

(a) General Operation of the Trip and Date Encoder
The Trip and Date Encoder is a self–contained, remotely mounted unit which sup-
plies the Interface II board with binary signals representing a four–digit trip number
from 0000 to 9999 and a two–digit date number from 01 to 39. The switches are
manually set from left to right with the first four devoted to the trip number and the
fifth and sixth to the date. They may be set before or after recorder power is on.
The complete encoding cycle takes approx. 15 minutes (slow code). A single pulse
code of approximately 30 seconds ON marks the start and finish of each cycle. Each
digital or counting pulse is 4.5 seconds ON and 9 seconds OFF.
When the flight recorder power is turned on, a red light on the unit will come ON indi-
cating the power–on condition. By pressing the REPEAT button for four or five se-
conds, an amber light will come ON and remain on while the 15–minute encoding
cycle is in process. If recorder power is interrupted during this 15–minute cycle, the
encoder will continue from this stopped position when power is restored. The red
and amber lights will turn OFF, then ON when power is restored.
A new cycle can be started only after a prior cycle has been completed and the am-
ber light extinguishes. After that, a new encoding cycle will take place when the RE-
PEAT button is again depressed for the required four or five seconds.
(b) Detailed Description of Encoder
As shown in Figure 43, the ”0” position of each of the six switches, S1 through S6, is

the PULSE CODE OUT pin of the output connector. The central ring, C, of the com-
mutator switch S8 is hardwired to the +28 Vdc supply. When the REPEAT button is
depressed, relay K1 de–energizes allowing the Timing Motor to operate. In four or
five seconds, contact ”B” will move off the connection to relay K1 allowing the relay to
close and the Timing Motor to operate for a full 15–minute cycle until it again makes
contact with the connection to K1. As the wiper arm makes its full 360 rotation, it
makes contact with each of the 9 connections of each switch. If the switch’s dial has
been turned to so that a connector is in contact with the sliding contact of the switch,
a single pulse code of approximately 4.5 seconds will result. There will be 9 seconds
between these pulse codes. If the switch’s sliding contact is not in contact with a
connector, no pulse code will result, as shown in Figure 44, Example B. When con-
tact ”B” again makes contact with the connection to Relay K1, this will cause the
relay to energize and open contact, stopping the operation of the Timing Motor.
I. DFR Multi–chip Microprocessor Systems
The DFR has been upgraded to reflect the most recent advances in microprocessor systems.
The F8 microprocessor previously used in the DFR is no longer available and has been re-
placed with an Intel type 80C31 microprocessor. The upgrade is a direct replaceable and can be
retrofitted to all existing DFR configurations. Functionally, the microprocessor has been up-
graded with no impact on the DFR. Both the F8 and the Intel 80C31 microprocessor are ex-
plained as follows.
(1) F8 Microprocessing System (See Figure 45 & Appendix A: Figure A22)
Prior DFR models use a Fairchild F8 Multi–chip Microprocessor System, which consists of
the following functional sections:
1. 3850 Central Processing Unit
2. 3871 Peripheral Input/Output
3. 3853 Static Memory Interface
4. Three 2k x 8 PROM’s
In the F8 System, a small amount of RAM is implemented within the CPU as scratchpad
memory. However, the major portion of the memory for the System resides in the three
PROM’s. The I/O ports are implemented in the CPU, the 3871 Peripheral Input/Output
(PIO), and the 3853 Static Memory Interface (SMI). The components of the F8 System
are interconnected by means of eight Data Bus lines (DB0 – DB7), five Control lines
(ROMC0 – ROMC4), two Clock Lines (o/, WRITE), and four Interrupt lines (PRI IN, PRI
OUT, INT REQ, EXT INT).
(a) 3850 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
This chip uses a 2–MHz clock, as shown in Figure A22 and the operating software
residing in the Programmable Read–Only Memory devices (PROM’s). The CPU pro-
vides data and control signals to other devices through the 8–bit Data Bus and the
5–bit Control Bus, respectively. Communication with DFR circuitry external to the F8
System is provided through the two 8–bit bi–directional I/O Ports (Ports 0 and 1).
See Figure 45 for Port and Pin identifications.
31–30–01
Rev 2 Page 79
Jan 31/94
AVIATION RECORDERS
FAIRCHILD MODEL
F800
(b) 3871 Peripheral I/O (PIO)
This unit provides expanded interfacing with DFR circuitry through two 8–bit bi–direc-
tional ports (Ports 4 and 5). See Figure 46 for Port and Pin identifications. The PIO
uses an internal timer to generate interrupts to the 3850 CPU which are used to syn-
chronize the CPU with the input data stream while in the 573/717 mode. The PIO
also controls the data–to–tape write process in all modes of operation.
(c) 3853 Static Memory Interface (SMI)
The SMI provides the necessary functions for accessing the programs residing in the
PROM’s. It uses 16 bits to address up to 6k Bytes of data stored in the PROM’s,
which then put the accessed data on the data bus for use by the CPU. The SMI also
contains a timer/interrupt capability, used by the operating program during the data–
to–tape write process.
(d) Programmable Read–Only Memories (PROM’s)
The PROM’s consist of three 2716 2kx8 chips. The entire software program is resi-
dent within two of these devices (U4 & U6) and uses less than 4k Bytes.
(2) Intel 80C31 Microprocessing System (See Figure 45A & Figure A22 )
Present releases of DFR models use the Intel 80C31 Multi–chip Microprocessor System,
which consists of the following functional sections:
1. 80C31 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
2. 32Kx8 EPROM Program Memory
3. 8Kx8 SRAM Data Memory
4. 2Kx8 EEPROM Track Memory
5. Data Memory Mapped I/O Ports
(a) CPU Clock Frequencies and System Timing
11.0592 MHz is generated by the Crystal Controlled Time Base and divided by the
Clock Divider to obtain the clock rates for 573/717, 542A, and 542 formats. This sig-
nal, WR CLK (172800 Hz), is supplied to the TO input of the microprocessor. Other
inputs of the Clock Divider are the F/D Clock (2.76 MHz), the WD CLK (42.19 Hz),
and 2.7 kHz for time–base monitoring.
(b) Watch–Dog and Power–up Reset
The DFR incorporates a “watch–dog ” circuit which monitors the operation of the mi-
croprocessor through TIC and TOC inputs. The Watch Dog circuit resets the micro-
processor if timing constraints are not met. TIC and TOC must be pulsed alternately
such that the time between the rising edges of both signals is no less than 0.0472s
and no greater than 0.0944s.
If this timing is not met, the RST line is activated to reset the microprocessor.
Through the monitoring of the 2.7–kHz clock–divider output, the processor is also
reset if it enters the “power down” mode.

This circuit determines timing from the WD CLK input. Power–up reset is accom-
plished by monitoring the +5V. If the +5V goes below 4.65V, then the RST line is acti-
vated for a period of at least 0.01 seconds after voltage on this line is above 4.7V.
The tolerance for the upper threshold is 4.75V to 4.59V with the lower threshold
0.05V lower.

/573 MD FR is a combination of two signal lines from STATUS PORT #1 and OC

DRIVER’s 542 FRATE output. This signal is only used as an input since the DFR
exhibits a design defect when this line is driven.
Inputs WR DIS and READ DATA require no support from this card. These lines are
connected to individual inputs on STATUS PORT # 2. Output /SAVE is supported
with a 4.7K ohm pull–up resistor to +5V.
J. Write Amplifier (See Figure 47 & Appendix A: Figures A23 – A25)

The Write Amplifier conditions the data signal for the recording heads, controls the track number
and phase, and generates the EOT signal when it senses End–of–Tape. The Block Diagram for
the Write Amplifier is shown below in Figure 47.
Head Drive circuitry receives the CPU’s serial bit stream and applies current to the appropriate
magnetic Write Head. The current passes through the heads in one direction for a Logic High
and in the opposite direction for a Logic Low. This is accomplished by the actions of the two
BCD–to–Decimal Decoders U3 and U4 (see Figure A24).
In order to see how this is done, consider first the Non–Volatile RAM (NVRAM) chip U1. When
the CPU selects a track for recording, it transmits the proper track address BCD code on
TRACK 0, 1, 2 according to the table shown in Figure A24. Once it has been confirmed that
recording is taking place properly, the CPU sends a Low SAVE (/SAVE) signal to the Low
STORE (/STORE) input of the NVRAM. This causes the track address to be permanently saved
in U1 until the next /STORE input. This address will be permanently saved until the CPU sends
another /SAVE signal.
During Power Down, U1–10’s /ARRAY RECALL will be Low which will inhibit a /STORE opera-
tion, preserving the last track address saved in NVRAM. On Power Up, the reset circuit U9A &
B resets the CPU and the CPU then initializes the Track Address port. Since /SAVE is kept High
and /ARRAY RECALL is kept Low, the last Track address saved will be readied for output from
the NVRAM..
The Track Address Output Enable signal (T.A. OUTPUT ENABLE) from the CPU will cause U1
to output the Track address to the BCD–to–Decimal Decoders U3 and U4.
The data to be recorded is input on the WRITE DATA line to NAND Gate array U6A, B, & C.
When the output of either U6B or U6C is High, it causes all the outputs of either U3 or U4, re-
spectively, to go High. Assuming that no disabling signals are input to the NAND array (i.e.,
/DATA DISABLE and /WRITE DISABLE are High), when WRITE DATA is High, the output of
U6B is High and all of its outputs will pull up to +5 V. On the other hand, U6C goes Low when
U6B is High, allowing U4 to pull Low (to ground) the output selected by the Track address from
U1. This will cause positive current to flow from U3 to U4 through the selected Track’s Write
head. No current will flow in the other Track heads since all the other outputs of U4 remain
High.

The reverse condition occurs when the WRITE DATA line goes L, causing a positive current to
flow from U4 to U3 through the same Track Write head.
When the CPU is writing Track identification patterns for BITE testing (see circuit description of
Interface I), it transmits a /DATA DISABLE signal to the Write Amplifier for either 100 ms or 300
ms blanks, depending on the Phase pattern for that Track. This forces Low the output of U6B,
causing the Track Write head to write a blank on tape for the duration of /DATA DISABLE.
A /WRITE DISABLE signal from the CPU forces the outputs of both U6B and U6C High, shutting
OFF all current flow through the Write heads.
The 1–Hz clock is crystal–controlled and only used by the CPU for data–frame synchronization
in the ARINC 542 Non–Expanded Mode.

K. Read Amplifier (See Figure 48 & Figure A26)
Preamplifiers U11A & B through U61A & B amplify the low–level analog signals from the Read
heads on each of the six recorded Tracks. The resultant amplified signals are routed to front–
panel connector J16. The circuits composed of diode CR 72 through CR 93 and resistors R 85
through R 93 protect the board from external high voltage transients.
A Track Address received from the Write Amplifier NVRAM (U1) causes the Analog Multiplexer
U71 to pass the output from the Track selected to the Dual Operational Amplifier U72A/B.
Comparator U73 produces a typical 5 Vp–p output suitable for driving both the BITE in Interface
I and TTL circuitry connected to the Front–Panel connector J16.
All 6 Tracks can be output simultaneously to ATE ground equipment, so that by using the X2
speed enhancement mode, the entire 25 hours can be accessed in 2.08 hours.

1. General
This section normally contains the Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) information for a unit. However,
since the Model F800 has no ATE associated with the unit, this section provides the functional test
and calibration procedures for the Fairchild Model F800 Digital Flight Recorder using the second
generation Ground–Station (GS/2) Read–Out Center (ROC). The information contained within this
section is at the Rev 2. level, thus no revision bar indicators are used.
All configurations of the DFR can be tested using the ROC. The procedures included in this section
are divided into the three basic categories listed below:
Para. 2: DFR Funtional Test Procedures ARINC 573/717, ARINC 542 (Non–Expanded),
ARINC 542A (Expanded) –– Both Pre/Post Mod Dot–20
Para. 3: DFR Calibration Procedures ARINC 542–– Both Pre/Post Mod Dot–20
Para. 4: DFR Calibration Procedures ARINC 542A –– Both Pre/Post Mod Dot–20
If testing and calibrating the DFR recorder using the standard Apple system, refer to the Testing and
Calibration procedures contained in Section 100.
2. DFR Functional Test Procedures

NOTE: The procedures contained in this paragraph are used for both PRE MOD DOT–20 and
POST MOD DOT–20 DFR configurations.
The functional test procedures for the Model F800 provide automated tests designed to check the
mission readiness of ARINC 542A and ARINC 573/717 Digital Flight Recorders. Calibration
procedures follow the functional test procedures.
The GS/2 system provides automated testing of ARINC 542/542A (CAA & FAA) and ARINC 573/717
configurations. Refer to Figure 201 for a Configuration Matrix for the Model F800.
For ARINC 573/717 Model DFR’s, perform only the ARINC 573 Functional Test Procedures
contained in Paragraph D.
For ARINC 542 (Non–Expanded) configurations, perform the ARINC 542 functional test procedures
in Paragraph E.
For ARINC 542A (Expanded Parameter) Model DFR’s, perform the ARINC 542A functional tests and
automatic test procedures contained in Paragraph F.
For DFR Models compatible with both ARINC 573 and ARINC 542/542A, (i.e. 17M900 and 17M903
models) begin with the ARINC 573 Functional Test followed by the either ARINC 542 (17M903),
Para. E. or 542A (17M900), Para. F. testing.

NOTE: Before tearing down and rebuilding the entire DFR unit, determine the most probable
cause by following the Test and Fault Isolation Procedures (Page 101).
1. General
Disassembly is performed only to the extent necessary to service, clean, adjust, repair, and replace
defective components. The following disassembly procedures are all that is needed for a complete
overhaul in the field. Certain assemblies must be repaired at the factory. If a disassembly is not
included below, contact the factory for further instructions.
Special tools, fixtures, and equipment needed to disassemble and repair the DFR are listed in Figure
901.
NOTE: Numbers shown in parentheses in the following text are Illustrated Parts List (IPL)
Figure and Item numbers which can be found in the referenced IPL Figure for that
section. Example: (2–5) indicates that the part is illustrated in Figure 2, Item #5 of the

placement. To remove a component, unsolder the appropriate leads using a 25–watt pen-
cil tip soldering iron. Tag the unsoldered leads to facilitate reassembly.
CAUTION: USE A HEATSINK WHEN SOLDERING A SOLID–STATE DEVICE. USE
A MINIMUM OF HEAT WHEN SOLDERING COMPONENTS ON A
PRINTED WIRING BOARD.
(2) Remove old solder as necessary and make connections mechanically strong before re-
soldering. Solder per MIL–S–6872, using solder (Item 2, Figure 601).
(3) Apply protective coating (Item 3, Figure 601) to all replaced components and circuit side of
printed wiring board. Apply coating as follows:
NOTE: Protective coatings are to be applied only to components that have been
replaced.

C. Tape Splicing and Loop Measurement Procedure

NOTE: The recorder assembly (Ref. IPL, Figure 3) is supplied with adequate magnetic
tape to permit removal of up to 10 feet and still remain within specifications. No
more than two splices are allowed per tape assembly with a separation between
splices of no less than 18 inches.
The following tools are required for this procedure:
1. Robbins splicing kit P/N 26045 or equivalent.
2. Radio solvent GC #31–8 or methyl ethyl keton (MEK).
3. Small trimming scissors.
4. Splicing material P/N 9300–559 (3M #67).
The followin steps of procedure describe the methods for tape splicing.
(1) Mark the hub appropriately for future identification as to number of feet of tape removed
during the splicing procedure.
(2) With splicing kit or scissors, remove old splice or defective portion of magnetic tape in
preparation for a new splice (10 feet maximum).
(3) Clamp both ends of 17A180 reel and tape assembly into splicer, graphite side up.
(4) With splicer, cut and discard scrap.
(5) Clean both graphite ends with radio solvent GC #31–8 (Item 4, Figure 601) for at least 1/4
inch or more on each end. (Ref. Figure 603.)
(6) Butt ends as close as possible without touching, align for joining, and clamp both ends.
(7) Place splicing material 9300–559 (3M #67) over splice, centering both horizontally and ver-
tically with cut in center, and press on. Remove any air pockets. (Do not use splicing ma-
terial over 6 months old from date on container.)
(8) Remove reel and tape assembly from splicer and trim tape on both sides with scissors in
gradual arc.
NOTE: Complete Step (9) ONLY if the old track–change window was removed due
to damage. (There should be only one window on the tape.)
(9) Make a track change window 1/8 to 1/4–inch wide edge–to–edge in position shown in
Figure 603. Remove both oxide and graphite from both sides of tape with GC #31–8 (Item
6, Figure 601).
(10) With reel and tape assembly in hand, work excess loop into bundle until inside loosens.

(11) Measure the tape loop strength by performing either the procedure in step 1 or step 2 as
follows:
NOTE: The hub bore will fit a tape recorder spindle.
(a) Make up a gram scale with a clamp on its end to grip the tape. (Ref. Sketch A
Figure 605.) Exert a pull on the outer layer until the gauge reads 150 to 200 grams.
(b) With a piece of masking tape, make a small loop on the end of the outer layer of the
magnetic tape. Insert the pointer of a gram scale in the loop and exert a pull until the
gauge reads 150 to 200 grams. (Ref. Sketch B, Figure 605.)
NOTE: While pulling, prevent the reel and hub assembly from turning, and
the tape from turning on the assembly by maintaining light finger
pressure on the inner turns of the tape bundle and the hub.
SKETCH A
SKETCH B
Tape Loop Measurement

Figure 605
(12) Form a loop by butting the end of the outer layer to the end of the inner layer, taking care
not to introduce a tape twist.
(13) Measure this loop size. This dimension is the distance from the edge of the reel to the
longest point of the stretched–out loop and should be 22 inches. (Ref. Figure 605.) To
increase or decrease this loop size, unwind or wind the desired amount of magnetic tape
from the outside of the bundle. When within 4 inches of proper loop size, trim tape ends
with splicer to establish required loop size.

AVIATION RECORDERS
FAIRCHILD MODEL
F800
NOTE: In operation of any endless loop system, each layer of magnetic tape
moves with respect to adjacent layers. This slippage occurs constantly. It
follows that the friction between layers should be kept at an absolute mini-
mum; thus, proper tape preconditioning is important. The magnetic tape
on the reel and tape assembly has been selected and preconditioned by
Fairchild and the incorporation of magnetic tape other than the specified
properly preconditioned magnetic tape is not permitted. Under no circum-
stances should there be more than two splices in the tape assembly nor
should the separation between slices be less than 18 inches.
D. Repair of Thermal Pack Insulation Assembly
The thermal pack insulation assembly, which is located on the recorder assembly (Ref. IPL, Fig-
ure 3), contains a predetermined amount of water and must be within weight specifications to
effectively act as a thermal barrier. The following procedure must be followed to repair this as-
sembly:
NOTE: The following tools are required for this procedure:
1. Methylene dichloride or DuPont (Duco) household cement.
2. ABS white plastic (.040 Atlas).
3. Cereta wax No. 316C (or equivalent).
4. Funnel.
5. Scale (2–kg/5–lb capacity).
6. Soldering iron (75–100 watts).
(1) Weigh the unit. At no time should the weight of the thermal box insulation assembly be 0.1
lb or 45.4 grams less than the weight stamped on the pack.
(2) Carefully examine the unit. Minor cracks, abrasions, fractures or an opened seam may be
repaired by brush application of a small quantity of methylene dichloride (Item 8,
Figure 601) to the affected area
(3) Drill a 0.250–inch hole in the thermal box 3/8–inch deep. Remove any residue caused by
this drilling operation and wipe box clean.
CAUTION: CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN DURING THE FOLLOWING STEP TO PRE-
VENT WATER FROM FLOWING BETWEEN THE WAXED INNER PACK
AND THE PLASTIC SHELL.
(4) Insert funnel into hole snugly. Pour into funnel the amount of water necessary to bring the
box weight back up to the marked weight.
(5) After the water has been absorbed by the fibrous material, remove the funnel and wipe
away excess moisture. Re–weigh the box. If additional water is required, repeat step D.
(6) Once it has been determined that the pack is within weight specifications, melt some Cere-
ta wax (Item 9, Figure 601) with the soldering iron and fill the hole. Form this wax flush
with the surface of the thermal box.
(7) Cut a 3/4–inch round piece of ABS plastic (Item 10, Figure 601) and coat one surface with
methylene dichloride (Item 8, Figure 601). Position this over the wax–filled hole and press

firmly to ensure intimate contact. Coat edges with additional methylene dichloride and al-
low to dry.
(8) Re–examine the repaired pack for integrity. Mark its actual weight on the outside and rein-
stall into recorder.
NOTE: A kit containing sufficient Cereta wax and ABS plastic to repair a number of
thermal pack assemblies is available from the factory (P/N 9300–A195).
E. Alternate Procedure for Weighing Thermal Pack Insulation Assembly

NOTE: The preceding procedure is to be used when performing overhaul or whenever
there is cause to disassemble the recorder assembly. When it is not otherwise
necessary to disassemble the recorder assembly, use the following procedure to
determine the insulation assembly weight by weighing the recorder assembly as
a complete unit.
The following tools are required for this procedure:
1. Standard hand tools
2. “T” wrench – P/N 9300–A737
3. “T” wrench – P/N 9300–A735
(1) Disassemble the DFR as detailed in Section 300 enough to remove the recorder assembly.
(2) Weigh the recorder assembly with the insulation assembly as a complete unit.
(3) The weight of the recorder assembly without the insulation assembly is 4.87 pounds
(constant). Add the weight stamped on the insulation assembly to determine the antici-
pated weight.
(4) Determine whether water should be added by use of the formula X = C – W, where:
A = Weight of recorder assembly less insulation assembly (4.87 pounds, constant)

B = Weight stamped on insulation assembly
C = A + B = Combined weight
W = Actual weight of recorder assembly and insulation assembly under inspection
X = Amount of water to be added
If X is less than 0.10 pound, no water needs to be added; if X is equal to or greater than 0.10
pound, add water to the amount of X (in pounds).
NOTE: To convert from pounds to grams, 1 pound = 453.592 grams.
(5) Example 1:
A = 4.87 pounds
B = 1.44 pounds
C = A + B = 4.87 + 1.44 + 6.31 pounds
W = 6.25 pounds (as weighed)
X = C - W X = 6.31 - 6.25 = 0.06 pound
X is less than 0.10 pound; no water need be added.

AVIATION RECORDERS
FAIRCHILD MODEL
F800
Example 2:
A = 4.87 pounds
B = 1.48 pounds
C = A + B = 4.87 + 1.48 + 6.35 pounds
W = 6.04 pounds (as weighed)
X=C-W
X = 6.35 - 6.04 = .031 pound
X is greater than 0.10 pound; 0.31 pound of water must be added.
(6) Procedures for returning insulation assemblies to their specified weight are described in
paragraph D.
F. Head Replacement
(1) Reasons for Head Replacement:
(c) End of useful life.
(d) Open head.
(e) Unable to achieve proper reasons after tape replacement and exhaustion of all other
means (cleaning, electrical checks, pressure pad, and/or head realignment).
NOTE: Tape manufacturing tolerances occasionally prevent a replacement
tape from tracking properly within the track worn by the previous
tape, thus impairing full head contact and response. In such cases,
heads may be removed and either replaced or reconditioned.
(2) Discard heads with open electrical connections. After proper cleaning, illuminate head with
a small beam of light in line with the gap and check for flattened areas.
CAUTION: THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT APPLIES ONLY TO HEADS THAT HAVE
BEEN REMOVED BECAUSE PROPER RESPONSE COULD NOT BE
OBTAINED BY ANY OTHER MEANS. HEADS SHOWING SIMILAR
WEAR BUT GIVING SATISFACTORY RESPONSE DEFINITELY SHOULD
NOT BE REMOVED OR ADJUSTED BEFORE SCHEDULED OVER-
HAUL.
(3) If the wear pattern extends over more than 3/4 of the pole piece width, reconditioning of
the head becomes increasingly difficult and discarding the head is recommended.
G. Pressure Pad, Pinch Roller and Tape Alignment

(1) Align guide (Item 100 IPL, Figure 4) in accordance with Figure 606. Tighten screws (70).
NOTE: Unhook spring (Item 235 IPL, Figure 3) after making above alignment.
Swing pinch roller (440) away.
(2) When assembling a bridge assembly, perform the following procedure: Observe that pres-
sure pads are centered on pole pieces of bridge assembly (Item 5 IPL, Figure 4). Adjust
with alignment screw at base of pressure pad assembly. Check record head and repro-
duce head pressure pads for a tension of 22 3 grams using Scherr Tumico 30 gram
gauge as shown in Figure 601.

CAUTION: DO NOT TOUCH THE HEAD WITH THE GAUGE FINGER OR IRREPA-
RABLE DAMAGE TO THE HEADS WILL RESULT.
(3) Using the Scherr Tumico 30 gram scale gauge, slip the tip of the gauge finger onto the
center of the arm next to the pressure pad between the sound head and arm.
(4) Exerting a steady pressure in the direction of the reel cover assembly, carefully read the
gram scale indication as the pressure pad lifts from the head. The reading should be 22
3 grams. Adjust the pressure pad arm near the fixed base by loosening holddown
screws and realigning the brackets. Bend slightly with tweezers if required. Check both
pressure pad arms. Adjust so that the difference of tension between top and bottom of the
arms is not more than 2 grams.
(5) Install reel and tape assembly (Item 50 IPL, Figure 3) with bearing (60), spacer (65), shim
(70) if needed, shim (75) if needed, and screw (55) with bearing (60).
(6) Pull out an approximate 3–inch loop from inside of tape bundle to facilitate threading.
(7) Thread tape through the assembly as follows: (Ref. Figure 606).
(a) Lift leafspring (Item 55 IPL, Figure 4) and slide tape onto guide roller (65).
(b) Loop tape around corner guide roller (Item 145 IPL, Figure 5).
(c) Gently lift pressure pads and slide tape onto heads. (Ref. Figure 606).
(d) Loop tape around capstan. Assure that the tape is between bridge casting and verti-
cal guide post. (Ref. Figure 606.) Slide tape into guide assembly (Item 100 IPL, Fig-
ure 4).
(8) Push outer layers of tape on reel clockwise until all loose tape is taken up. Hold inside lay-
ers of tape during this operation. Continue to push roll of tape to assure tape is coming off
reel properly and is not pinched where it enters the guide assembly. (Item 100 IPL, Figure
4)
CAUTION: DO NOT PINCH TAPE AT ENTRANCE AND EXIT CHANNELS WHEN
ATTACHING REEL–COVER ASSEMBLY.
(9) Attach reel–cover assembly (Item 620 IPL, Figure 3) with captive screws and washers.
(10) Attach tape retainer and nut (Items 345 and 350 IPL, Figure 3).
(11) Attach spring (235) to pinch roller arm (440).
NOTE: To insure proper tape movement, the following check can be performed.
(a) Before performing step (11), apply power to recorder and manually press pinch roller
(440) against capstan.
(b) Observe tape movement through threading path and reel assembly.
(c) Remove power and proceed with step (11).

spring and the attaching point of the pinch roller assembly. Exerting a steady pressure in
the direction of the pinch roller assembly, carefully read the gram scale indication as the
pinch roller assembly breaks away from touching the capstan assembly. The reading
should be 850 50 grams. Adjust the stop nut at opposite end of the spring to correct the
breakaway tension of the pinch roller.
3. DFR Belt Tension/Adjustment Procedures

The tension for both flywheel belt and motor belt is derived from the required torque to pull tape
through its path by the capstan. A minimum of 8 grams/inch (torque) is necessary to achieve the ini-
tial motion required to move all parts through their normal path of operation. When both belts begin
to slip with heavy drag applied to the flywheel, the belt tension is too loose. When motor stalls with
heavy drag applied to the flywheel, the belt tension is too tight.
NOTE: The following tools are required for this procedure:

1. Screwdriver
2. Belt–Tension Gauge 17TE236
A. Belt–Tension–Gauge Adjustment Procedure (See Figure 609)

The following alignment procedure is the same for both gauges.

(15) If both the upper and lower stops are adjusted properly, use GLYPTOL to secure set
screws/lock nuts #1/#2, #5/#6, and #10/#11.
B. Mounting Belt–Tension Gauge on DFR (See Figure 610)
Remove all power from the recorder prior to mounting the belt–tension gauge. Remove recorder
outer cover and flywheel cover. Lay recorder on its side so belts and pulley are exposed as
shown in Figure 610.
(1) Measure height of Standoff A (see Figure 610). If it is only approximately 1/4”, remove
Extender #13 (see Figure 609) from Calibration Platform of Belt–Tension Gauge and screw
into Standoff A. This will make it the same height as Standoffs B and C.
(2) Unscrew knurled holding screws #12 and remove Belt–Tension Gauge from Calibration
Platform.
NOTE: Make sure that each lever arm #4 is in the up position before mounting the
gauge, and position each gauge arm #14 inside its appropriate belt, as
shown in Figure 610.

D. Head Reconditioning
Head reconditioning is possible, however, it is not feasible nor recommended by L3AR. This is
due to its extreme complexity and the labor hours needed to complete this process. If head re-
conditioning is still desired, please advise L3AR. Please note that L3AR will only reimburse per
typical repair times.
E. Deck Alignment
Before undertaking deck alignment, ensure that the following has been accomplished:
S All necessary repairs have been made.
S Belt tension has been checked.
S Roller surfaces have been cleaned.
S Bearings have been cleaned or replaced.
S The following items have been removed from the tape transport:
Reel cover assembly (Item 605, IPL Figure 3)
Reel and tape assembly (Item 50, IPL Figure 3), spacer (65), ball bearing (60), thin shim
(70), and thick shims (75)
Corner guide nut (Item 350, IPL Figure 3) and retainer (345)
S Pinch roller spring has been disconnected and the pinch roller assembly pushed away from
the tape path (refer to Figure 612, Tape Routing).
(1) Slide two thick shims (Item 75, IPL Figure 3), one thin shim (70) bearing (60), and spacer
(65), on reel shaft (Item 120, IPL Figure 4, ). Install reel and tape assembly (Item 50, IPL
Figure 3, ) on reel shaft. Snugly tighten shoulder screw (55) and ball bearing (60) to se-
cure reel and tape assembly to reel shaft. Lightly spin reel and tape assembly to make
sure reel does not bind or rub on deck plate surface.
(2) Refer to Figure 613, Reel Height Adjustment. Using reel height gauge P/N
980–E0483–00, hold the .082-inch (thin end) bar flat on the deck plate, but under the tape
reel. Lightly spin the tape reel to see that the reel does not rub on the reel height gauge.
(3) Repeat step (2) using the .088-inch (thick end). The tape reel should rub against reel
gauge in at least one area of the tape reel. Repeat this procedure, removing or adding
shims (Item 75 and Item 70, IPL Figure 3) as required, until the thin end of the reel height
gauge clears the tape reel and the thick end rubs on the tape reel.
(4) Pull tape from outer portion of reel to create service loop. (Approximately 8 inches of
slack is recommended.)

(5) Refer to Figure 612, Tape Routing. With oxide side of tape face down against the angle
guide roller, begin to route tape from inner portion of reel assembly (tape pull-out area),
under retainer spring. Lift retainer spring. Continue routing tape around corner guide roll-
er, across write/read heads, between vertical guidepost and bridge. Finish routing tape by
looping tape around capstan and through tape chute channel. (Refer to Figure 614, Tape
Guide Alignment, for additional detail.)
(6) Tighten slack by spinning reel clockwise. Do not allow inner supply loop of tape to be mis-
aligned with angle guide roller.
(7) Reattach pinch roller spring (Item 235, IPL Figure 3) to pinch roller arm (440).
F. Checks:
(1) Refer to Figure 615, Corner Roller Adjustment. Make sure tape aligns evenly across
heads. If not, adjust corner roller by adding or removing shims (Items 100 and 105, IPL
Figure 5). This is accomplished using the corner roller removal tool. The 1/4-inch nut
(Item 350, IPL Figure 3) should first be removed before using corner roller removal tool.
(2) Refer to Figure 616, Guide Post Tape Alignment Check. Make sure tape doesn’t drag
against the bottom of the vertical tape guide post. This can be checked by using a small
pen light. Shine light in back of the tape at the guide post area. This process will reveal
tape drag if light doesn’t pass between tape and bottom of vertical tape guide post.
(3) After checks have been completed, apply power to DFR via ACS and RDU. Attach test
leads to RDU output test point and observe signal on oscilloscope. Maximize signal by ad-
justing write and read heads. This is done by slightly loosening both heads and swiveling
the left (adjustable) screw on each head. (Refer to Figure 617, Write/Read Head Adjust-
ment.)
(4) After maximum signal amplitude has been achieved, tighten the screws.
NOTE: Signals may vary according to different ARINC types (refer to Figure 618,
ARINC Waveforms).
NOTE: If there is no signal present, recheck all connections to ensure proper set-
up.
(5) Install pressure pad assembly (Item 5, IPL Figure 5) as shown in Figure 619, Pressure
Pad Tension Adjustment. Using 30-gram gauge, adjust pressure pads to 22 grams.
NOTE: Applying pressure pad should stabilize signal, as observed on oscillo-

scope.

3. Storage Instructions
NOTE: A bench test is required after storage of more than one year.
A. Storage in Original Containers
When possible, the DFR system equipment should be stored in its original containers. The
recorder assembly should be packaged separately with the recorder assembly in one container.
Provide adequate packing to ensure protection from damage during storage and shipment and
ensure that adequate silica gel packages are packed in the containers to protect the equipment
from moisture. Seal the container(s) to provide a moisture–proof package.
B. Storage Without Original Containers
If the original containers are not available, perform the following procedures to wrap the DFR
system equipment for storage:
(1) Wrap the recorder assembly in plain wrapping paper or newspaper of sufficient thickness
to thoroughly cover all sharp corners and protrusions.
(2) Enclose each unit in a polyethylene bag (3 mils thick, min.) with packages of silica gel
sufficient to provide moisture protection and seal the bags.
(3) Place the recorder assembly in a suitably sized heavy construction cardboard box and
surround the assembly with packing material sufficient to protect it on all sides. Arrange
packing material in such a way that the assemblies are protected and will not move around
within the box.
(4) Seal box(es) with fiberglass packing tape.
(5) Mark boxes clearly as to contents.
C. Storage of DFR Bearings
Note: Shelf life of all DFR bearings is two years from the date stamped on the
manufacturers packaging. Thereafter, the bearings should be relubricated using
specified lubricates and fill levels.

B. Aircraft Simulator (ACS/5A)
The Aircraft Simulator (ACS/5A) is used for simulation of aircraft parameters. The ACS/5A is a
significant upgrade to the previous ACS/2A. The aircraft simulator is used for bench testing the
recorders in any configuration. The ACS powers and controls the recorder under test and
simulates the aircraft environment by generating accurate input data for testing of all ARINC 542
and ARINC 542A expanded parameter functions. An ARINC 573/717 data stream is also a
selectable output of the ACS.

Parameters can be varied through its IEEE–488 control bus unit. The ACS is designed for 19”
rack mounting and is supplied with complete ACS–to–recorder interconnection cabling. Power
requirement for the ACS/5A is 115 Vac, 400 Hz. Specifically, the ACS/5A is capable of
simulating the following aircraft data:
` Aircraft Synchro Air–Speed ` Low Level DC Voltages
` Aircraft Heading ` Discrete Inputs (microphone)
` Aircraft Synchro Altitude ` Trip & Date (actual or simulated)
` Vertical/Lateral Acceleration ` Engine Inputs
` ARINC 573 / 542A / 542P Data ` Total Air Temperature
In addition to existing utilities, the ACS/5A is expandable to include future parameter expansion
and simulation of ARINC 429 and ARINC 629 buss systems. The ACS/5A also has spare
processing capability to accommodate the higher bit rates of future bus systems. Refer to
Figure 903 for an illustration depicting the Aircraft Simulator, ACS/5A.

1. GENERAL
This Illustrated Parts List describes, lists, and illustrates all of the procurable assemblies and parts for
the Digital Flight Recorder Model F800 configurations listed in the configuration matrix provided in
paragraph 8. The equipment is designed and manufactured by L–3 Communications, P.O. Box 3041,
Sarasota, Florida 34230–3041.
2. PURPOSE
The purpose of this Illustrated Parts List is to assist maintenance and supply personnel in requisition-
ing, storing, issuing and identifying parts to maintain the Digital Flight Recorder. This Illustrated Parts
List is not to be taken as the authority for the procedure of assembly or disassembly. Overhaul or re-
pair should be done by authorized personnel only.
3. ABBREVIATIONS
The following abbreviations are used in this section:
Abbreviation Meaning
AR As Required
NHA Next Higher Assembly
RF Reference
4. EQUIPMENT DESIGNATOR INDEX
The Equipment Designator Index is an index of designators assigned to electrical parts as shown in
electrical wiring and schematic diagrams. Equipment designators are listed in alphanumerical se-
quence showing applicable figure and item numbers.
5. NUMERICAL INDEX
The Numerical Index is a complete listing of parts included in the Detail Parts List, cross–referenced
to the applicable figure and item number, L3AR’s part numbers, the manufacturer’s part numbers and
total quantity required.
Part numbers are arranged in a alphanumerical sequence beginning at the extreme left–hand position
and continue from left to right, one position at a time. The order to precedence in beginning the part
number arrangement is as follows:
A. Letters A through Z (Alphabetical Os are considered as numerical zeros).
B. Numerals 0 through 8.
Part number entry is limited to a single line and does not exceed fifteen characters.
The FIGURE number and ITEM number columns contain the figure and item number(s) for all parts
listed. When more than one figure and item number are shown for the same part number, the part
number is not repeated.
6. DETAIL PARTS LIST

The Detail Parts List consists of illustrations and columnar parts breakdown of the component and all
assemblies, subassemblies, and parts that can be disassembled, repaired and reassembled, or re-
31-30-01

placed. Items that are riveted, welded or spun over are not listed. Parts made of bulk stock such as
wire, tape or bonding braid are also not listed. Illustrations are each assigned a figure number, com-
mencing with Figure 1 and progressing in sequence.
The FIGURE AND INDEX NUMBER column reflects the assigned figure number of the illustration in
which the item is shown and the item number listed on the illustration. Figure numbers are shown for
the first entry of each figure and at the top of each subsequent column. When there is more than one
type of subassembly for the same function (such as the S/D Converter), additional figures are in-
cluded with the same number, but followed by an additional alpha designator (such as A, B, etc.).
For example, 9 and 9A refer to two different PWA versions (i.e., 17A219 and 17A219–01) of the Syn-
chro/Digital Converter.
Each part number listed in the Detail Parts List is assigned an index number. Index numbers begin
with number 1 for each illustration and in broken sequence to facilitate the insertion of new items
which are not variants of existing items. Items listed but not illustrated are identified by a dash to the
left of the index number.
The PART NUMBER column contains the manufacturer’s part number when the part is purchased
from a source other than L–3 Communications, or the L–3 Communications’ part number for those
parts which must be purchased from L–3 Communications. When the manufacturer’s part number is
used for any parts, the L3AR number is also shown enclosed in parentheses in the NOMENCLA-
TURE column. When standard parts (such as MS, AN, RC, CP, etc.) are used, vendor codes are not
assigned to these parts. However, for non–standard parts the vendor code is assigned in the NO-
MENCLATURE column and is preceded by the letter “V.” It corresponds to the Federal Supply Code
for Manufacturers as listed in Cataloging Handbook H4–1.
When a part has multiple vendors, all part numbers are listed in the PART NUMBER column. The
first vendor will be assigned an item number and each subsequent part number is assigned the same
item number with an alpha variant.
The NOMENCLATURE column describes the part or assembly. Nomenclature wording is arranged so
that the identifying noun or key word is always the first part of the description; this is followed by mo-
difying words. Standard abbreviations are used as necessary, however, efforts to minimize the use of
abbreviations has been made. Assemblies which are not broken down within a listing but which are
covered by a separate figure will carry the notation “(SEE FIG. – FOR DETAIL BREAKDOWN).” The
listing of the assembly in the breakdown figure will carry the reference “(SEE FIG. – FOR NHA)”. If
the vendor is not L3AR, the manufacturer’s vendor code may be included in parentheses in this col-
umn. Any assembly or subassembly which has been modified due to issue of a Field Service Bulletin,
has been noted within this column.
The indenture system, provided by the numbers “1” through “6” in the heading, shows the relationship
of one part to another; for example, a part listed under indenture “3” is a component of the assembly
listed under indenture “2” immediately above it. Items used to attach parts or assemblies to each
other are designated “ATTACHING PARTS” and are listed immediately following the item or items
they attach. The symbol “* * *” denotes the end of attaching parts.
The EFFECTIVITY CODE column establishes parts’ relationship with units or assemblies which are
essentially the same but have variations. These units or assemblies are the lead times on each fig-
ure. These units or assemblies are assigned reference letters such as A, B, C, D, etc. Parts which
are not common to all configurations but are associated with one or more of the coded lead items
carry the letter or letters assigned to the lead item with which it is associated. If a part is common to
31-30-01
Rev 2 Page 1002
Jan 31/94
AVIATION RECORDERS
FAIRCHILD MODEL
F800
all lead items, the EFFECTIVITY CODE column is blank. If the number of effectivitiy codes applica-
ble to a part exceeds a determined amount, a numerical designator is provided in the effectivity col-
umn which references the corresponding effectivity code list provided at the bottom of the page.
The UNITS PER ASSY column lists the quantity of the item required in one assembly in which it is a
component. It is, therefore, not necessarily the total quantity of the part required in the complete
equipment; the equipment total can be found in the Numerical Index. The term “RF” denotes that the
assembly has been previously listed in the parts breakdown.

The matrix Lists the various Digital Flight Recorder Model F800 configurations covered within this
Illustrated Parts List. The recorder Model Number, LDS Stock Number and Effectivity Code are pro-
vided along the vertical axis. The major assemblies contained within each configuration are listed
along the top horizontal axis by part number in the order that they are presented within the Illustrated
Parts List.
A “F” symbol indicates that the model or assembly is in current production, while a “Z” symbol
indicates that the part is obsoleted. Notice that the “Z” symbol is used in both the body of the matrix
and along the vertical and horizontal axis (Both configurations and/or assemblies may be obsolete).
The “L” symbol indicates that the boards are interchangeable (i.e. S/D Converter 17A219 and
17A219–01). The nomenclature column of the individual part lists will provide replacement informa-
tion, including FSB number, for the parts that are obsolete.

STANDARD 0-5V CAN BE 0-10V BY JUMPING E5-E6,
& E7-E8. AN EXTERNAL FULL SCALE REF. AT PINS 15 &
16 CAN BE USED BY CHANGING E10-E11 TO E10-E9.
IF EXTERNAL FULL SCALE REF IS BETWEEN 10V AND
20V THEN JUMP E1-E2, E3-E4, E5-E6, & E7-E8.
5 IF R18 REACHES THE UPPER LIMIT AND TP5 IS BELOW

5.000V, SHUNT R17 (1.0K) WITH 5.11K. IF, AT THE LOWER
LIMIT, TP5 REMAINS ABOVE 5.000V SHUNT R19 (5.0K)
WITH 51.1K. EXTREME TOLERANCE OF CR9 AND R18
CAN REQUIRE THIS.
