ADF System Overview for Boeing 767

The Automatic Direction Finder (ADF) system provides bearing information to navigate to ground radio stations. It has two independent receivers that receive signals from the sense and loop antennas. The ADF displays bearing on the pilots' navigation displays and radio magnetic indicators. It can tune frequencies from 190 kHz to 1750 kHz, including commercial AM radio stations. The system receives signals from transmitters using the loop antenna to detect the magnetic field and sense antenna for the electric field.

The Automatic Direction Finder (ADF) system is a navigational aid. It provides The ADF system interfaces with the captain’s and F/O’s radio direction mag-

in the ADF mode.

Lufthansa LAN Technical Training


The ADF system also displays bearing on the EFIS EHSI.
ADF System Overview
Each ADF system can use the sense antenna inputs to receive AM radio or
Two ADF systems are installed. Each system includes one receiver and one weather broadcasts. The ADF receiver provides the audio signal to the inter-

systems. Left and right system operation is identical.

Frequency
ADF processes frequencies from 190 kHz to 1750 kHz. This includes the stan-
dard AM broadcast and low frequency non--directional beacons.

Basic Concept
Each ADF system receives an electromagnetic wave transmitted by a ground
station.
The loop antenna intercepts the magnetic portion of the wave and couples this
signal to the ADF receiver. The sense antenna intercepts the electric portion
and couples this signal to the receiver. The ADF receiver processes both sig-
nals and provides bearing output signals. This bearing data can be displayed
on the RDMI and EHSI.

ADF CONTROL PANEL
General
The ADF control panel is located on the aft electronics panel P8.
The ADF control panel is used to select the operating frequency of the system.

Lufthansa LAN Technical Training


The system always operates in the ADF mode.

Frequency Selection
Each ADF receiver’s operating frequency is selected on one of the two sets of
three concentric knobs.
The left knob controls the left RCVR. The right knob controls the right RCVR.
The outer knob selects kHz in thousands and hundreds. The middle knob se-
lects the10 kHz range and the inner knob selects units in 0.5 kHz increments.
The selected frequency is displayed in the respective window above each set
of knobs.

ARCHITECTURE
Components
The dual ADF system consists of two independent ADF receivers, each receiv-
ing its input from a dedicated antenna. Both receivers can operate simulta-
neously and be tuned to different ground stations.

Lufthansa LAN Technical Training


The ADF control panel sends frequency data to the appropriate receiver via an
ARINC 429 bus.

Interface
Each ADF receiver transmits its computed bearing to both RDMIs and all three
EFIS symbol generators via ARINC 429 buses.

ADF RECEIVER
General
Each ADF receiver processes the rf signals from its antenna. It operates at the
frequency selected on the control panel. The receiver provides bearing and/or
audio output signals accordingly.

Lufthansa LAN Technical Training


BITE
The ADF receiver continuously monitors system operation. All detected faults
are stored in a nonvolatile fault memory. Any active faults will be annunciated
on the RDMIs or on the receiver front panel during a self-- test.
The faults are stored by flight segments for subsequent evaluation in the shop.
Each flight segment starts when the airplane takes off as detected by the air/
ground relay.
A seven segment LED readout inside the receiver shows detected faults. It is
used for shop maintenance.

Intermittent Faults
Intermittent faults are detected during both system monitoring and during BITE
initiated self--tests. If two or more identical intermittent faults have been de-
tected in the previous four flight segments, the BITE monitor will consider the
unit to be bad.

Test Switch
The front panel of the receiver contains a self test switch and three pass/fail
status lights.
The status lights indicate system status during the self--test only. A green light
indicates a go condition. Red lights indicate a no--go condition.

tional loop antennas. They are enclosed in a tear--dropshaped synthetic shell.
This shell also contains three pre--amplifiers and three transformers. These are Static Discharging
mounted on the antenna’s electronic assembly. The surface of the antenna is covered with black anti--static paint for
precipitation--static protection. The gasket is conductive, and a good
electrical bond must be established through the mounting screws.
Power Supply
12 v dc and --12 v dc are supplied from the ADF receiver.
Caution
The antenna is electrostatic sensitive.
Loop Antennas
The loop antennas provide bearing signals to the ADF receiver. They are
mounted at 90 to each other. One winding is mounted parallel to the airplane
centerline.

Sense Antenna
The sense antenna is used for audio reception. It also provides a reference
phase signal. In the ADF mode, this signal resolves the180° phase ambiguity
of the loop antennas.
