SCOPE

1.1 Scope.- This specification sets forth the integrated system equipment requirements for a Dual Mode High Intensity Approach Lighting System used to present visual approach lighting patterns to landing aircraft on selected Category II/III Runways. This system will have two operational modes, a High Intensity Approach Lighting System with Sequenced Flashing Lights (ALSF-2) and a Simplified Short Approach Lighting System with Runway Alignment Indicator Lights (SSALR). This specification sets forth the integration requirements for the entire system, provides detailed requirements for the electrical equipment necessary to energize and remotely control the lighting patterns, provides requirements for remote maintenance monitoring, and provides brief descriptions and interface data for subelements of the system that are procured by other detailed specifications. 1.2 Classification.- Two types of dimmable sequenced flashing lights are covered by this specification. Type I Type II Elevated flasher assembly (3.2.5.3) Semiflush flasher assembly (3.2.5.4)

1.3 Definitions.- The following definitions apply for this specification. 1.3.1. Mode ALSF-2.- ALSF-2 is an abbreviation for the High Intensity Approach Lighting System with Sequenced Flashing Lights, Category II. In ALSF-2 mode, approximately 100 lamps of the 300 or 500 watt type (35 kilowatts (kw)) are connected in

FAA-E-2689a NOTICE-5 May 31, 1996

-2-

series in each of five constant current loops. lamps and lamp wattage may vary for each loop.

Actual number of

1.3.2 Mode SSALR.- SSALR is an abbreviation for the Simplified Short Approach Lighting System with Runway Alignment Indicator Lights. 1.3.3 Current loop.- A current loop is formed by electrically connecting lamp transformers and an approach lighting system (ALS) regulator in series such that the ALS regulator current has a single path through primary windings of all lamp transformers and hence produces equal illumination of all lamps connected to the respective secondary windings. 1.3.4 Discrimination ratio.- Discrimination ratio is the ratio of specified mean time between failures (MTBF) to the minimum acceptable MTBF. 1.3.5 Down-link.- Data transmission from the air traffic control tower to the substation. 1.3.6 Up-link.- Data transmission from the substation to the air traffic control tower. 1.3.7 Alternating current and voltage.- Unless otherwise specified, all alternating currents and voltages shall be understood to be root-mean-square (rms) values. 1.3.8 High voltage.- Any voltage above 500 volts (V) rms.

1.3.9 Equipment failures.- Equipment failures are black box, module, card, or part failures whose impact upon the system functions may vary from a minor maintenance action to catastrophic. For example, the failure of a power supply whose redundant unit takes over automatically with no system downtime is only an equipment failure. 1.3.10 Failure condition.- A failure condition exists when one or more steady burning lamps or flasher lamps fail after a caution condition. 1.3.11 Functional failures.- Failures which cause either the complete or partial loss of a function. 1.3.12 Caution condition.- A caution condition exists when two steady burning lamps fail while in the SSALR mode or five lamps fail while in the ALSF-2 mode, in any of five current loops. Caution also exists when one flasher fails in the SSALR mode or two flashers fail in the ALSF-2 mode. 1.3.13 TTL compatible.- TTL is an abbreviation for transistortransistor logic. The input and output shall be either logic high or logic low.

1.3.13.2 Logic Low.- Unless otherwise specified, logic low shall be voltage higher than -0.6 volts dc but not to exceed 1 volt dc. It may also be defined by the numeral "0" or "LO". 1.3.14 Complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) logic

1.3.14.1 Logic high.- Logic high shall be voltage higher than 5.0 volts dc but not greater than 15 volts dc. It may also be defined by the numeral "1" or "HI". 1.3.14.2 Logic low.- Logic low shall be voltage higher than -0.5 volts but not to exceed 3.6 volts dc. It may also be defined by the numeral"0" or "LO". 1.3.15 24-volt logic

1.3.15.1 Logic high.- Logic high shall be voltage equal or higher than 15 volts dc but not greater than 28 volts dc. It may also be defined by the numeral "1" or "HI". 1.3.15.2 Logic low.- Logic low shall be voltage equal or higher 0.5 volt dc but not to exceed 5 volts dc. It may also be defined by the numeral "0" or "LO". 1.3.16 Mean time between failures (MTBF).- MTBF is equal to the total operating hours of the equipment divided by the number of failures. 1.3.17 Mean time to repair (MTTR).- MTTR is the total corrective maintenance time divided by the total number of corrective maintenance actions. 1.3.18 Predicted MTBF.- The predicted MTBF is determined by reliability prediction methods based on the equipment design, the use environment, and the exponential distribution. 1.3.19 Predicted MTTR.- The predicted MTTR is determined by maintainability prediction methods based on the equipment design, configuration, fault detection, and fault isolation techniques. 1.3.20 Remote maintenance monitoring system.- The Remote Maintenance Monitor System (RMMS) consists of the various sensors, micro-computers, instrumentation, and other microcomputer controlled circuits and equipment necessary to remotely monitor, control, analyze, record engineering data, and certify proper operation of equipment comprising the ALSF-2/SSALR as well as the overall ALSF-2/SSALR system. RMMS includes the Remote Monitor Subsystem (RMS), Maintenance Data Terminals (MDT), Maintenance Processor Subsystem (MPS) and the software/firmware necessary to make the system function. 1.3.20.1 Remote monitoring subsystem.- The Remote Monitoring Subsystem (RMS) is a subsystem of RMMS to provide for the collection, processing, control, and transmission of ALSF-2/SSALR equipment and environmental performance parameters.

REQUIREMENTS

3.1 General.- The equipment furnished under this specification shall provide approach lighting for use on selected runways. The Approach Lighting System (ALS) shall be switchable from the High Intensity Approach Lighting System with Sequenced Flashing Lights, Category II (ALSF-2) mode, to the Simplified Short Approach Light System with Runway Alignment Indicator Lights (SSALR) mode. The patterns produced by these two lighting modes are shown in plan view by figures 1 and 2 respectively. The system shall be capable of providing the 3,000-foot (914 m) patterns as shown where glide slope angle restrictions require it, and also the shorter 2,400foot (732 m) patterns for use on other domestic Category II Runways (without the last six stations). The steady burning approach lights will be connected in five constant current lighting loops as shown on FAA Drawing D-6238-4. Switching between the modes (ALSF-2/SSALR) will be locally controlled from the substation and remotely controlled from the airport traffic control tower (ATCT) via the control subsystem, which will activate/deactivate the constant current regulators. Operational modes of the flashing lights will be switched by selectively activating the appropriate trigger signals upon command from the ATCT. The approach lighting system will use low impact resistance structures, will employ constant current lighting techniques, and will have remotely indicated fault sensing equipment. The substation equipments (regulators, high voltage cabinets, Remote Monitoring Subsystem and control and monitor subsystems) will be installed in an environmentally controlled shelter that is generally located within the runway approach zone. This shelter is not a part of this specification; however, it will provide protection for some of the equipment. The shelter equipment arrangement and detailed mounting provisions are as shown on FAA Drawings D-6238-17 and D-6238-21. The system equipment and interconnection shall comply with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA). The required system shall be as shown in the functional block diagram, figure 4. This specification also covers reliability and maintainability design and prediction requirements imposed on the contractor. The design shall include a requirement for a remote maintenance monitoring system capability. For each circuit card assembly type, the contractor shall provide one site spare.

3.2.4.4.2.1 MAINT/ATCT control.- For specification of MAINT/ATCT control see 3.4.16 and subsections. If any of the regulators are placed in a local control mode via its own independent (local/remote) switch when the substation (or tower) is in the ATCT mode, the air traffic control tower MAINT indicator shall be illuminated along with an audible alarm and the substation control panel MAINT indicator shall blink (see 3.2.4.4.2.8). 3.2.4.4.2.2 Brightness control.- Logic shall be provided to cause the selected brightness to be activated by the regulators, monitor, and flasher equipment. The flasher shall be commanded to LOW intensity for brightness steps 1 or 2, to MEDIUM for step 3, and to HIGH for steps 4 or 5. 3.2.4.4.2.3 Brightness 5 control logic.- Logic shall be provided to prevent brightness 5 from remaining active for more than 15 minutes 10 seconds without reinitiating the command. Brightness 5 is a momentary signal and must be electronically latched. Once latched, the brightness 5 control shall be active for only 15 minutes, unless reinitiated during the 15 minute period. At 14.5 minutes 10 seconds, an alert signal shall be generated and sent to the control panel to "beep" the alarm and cause the B5 indicator lamp to blink. At the end of 15 minutes, the B5 control latch shall be reset and B4 logic activated, causing the lighting system to switch into brightness 4. Until any brightness level is selected, the system shall remain in brightness 4 and the alert signal shall remain active, causing the B4 indicator to blink, indicating that the actual brightness is not as selected by the operator. When there is a power source transfer from commercial power to engine generator power, the brightness level will step from brightness 5 to brightness 4 for a period of 10 seconds after which it will return to brightness level 5. This is accomplished by 2 additional terminals connected to the engine generator "ON" switch. These two terminals shall be transient protected and identified as "engine generator set back." The voltage at these two terminals shall be 24 V dc and is provided by the engine generator. When 24 volts is at these terminals, logic is High and the engine generator is turned ON. When 0 volts is at these terminals, logic is Low and the engine generator is OFF.

3.2.4.4.2.4 Regulator control.- The logical control algorithm for the regulator on/off and brightness control functions shall be such that, when a regulator is turned on, it is turned on with B1 selected and after a 3.5 second time delay, the desired brightness is selected. The delay allows the steady burning lamps to come up to operating temperature before large energy output conditions are imposed on the system. After initial warm up, it shall be possible to select any brightness without additional delays. The 3.5 second time delay shall not be used when the regulator is turned off by input power interruption and then to on when input power returns, such as occurs when power is transferred from engine generator to commercial power using the E/G transfer switch. 3.2.4.4.2.5 Flashing light control.- Logic signals shall be provided to turn the flashing lights on/off, change modes, or change brightness upon command. No special timing considerations of these signals are required. 3.2.4.4.2.6 Mode change logic.- Logic shall be provided to turn the five regulators on when the system is commanded to be in the ALSF-2 mode. When the system is commanded to be in the SSALR mode, only the two regulators that feed the SSALR lighting loops shall stay on. 3.2.4.4.2.7 Alarm.- An electronic signal shall be provided and shall output a steady audible tone of 2000 Hz 500 Hz with a sound pressure level measured at 1 meter of 55 to 70 decibels (dB). The sound level adjustment control shall be located inside the enclosure and behind the remote control panel. The alarm operates as follows: (a) When a failure condition is received from either the strobe light (flasher) control system or the ALS operational monitor subsystem, it shall initiate a double beeping mode where the tone is emitted for 0.1 seconds, is off for 0.1 seconds, is emitted for 0.1 seconds, and is off for 0.7 seconds. The double tone shall stop after the FAILURE pushbutton is depressed until a new failure condition occurs. The failure indicator light shall remain lit until the failure condition is removed. When a communications fault occurs, the audible alarm shall initiate a beeping mode where the tone is emitted for 0.33 seconds and is off for 0.66 seconds. The beeping shall continue until the COMM FAULT pushbutton is depressed. It shall not reenter the continuous beep mode until after the fault condition is cleared and a new fault is detected. After the pushbutton is depressed the COMM FAULT light will remain lit until the fault condition is removed.

When a caution signal is received from either the flashing lighting system or the ALS monitor subsystem, the alarm shall emit a single 0.2 second tone. It shall emit this tone each time a caution condition occurs. The caution light shall remain lit until the condition is removed. Whenever a mode error is detected, when both the steady burning and the flashing lights are not in the same mode (ALSF/SSALR), a single 0.1 second tone shall be generated. The ALSF-SSALR status indicator shall blink until the steady burning and flashing lights have both switched to the mode selected. Detection of this error shall be inhibited for 1 second after a mode change is requested. Whenever the brightness 5 timer passes either the 14.5 minute warning, or switches to B4 at 15 minutes, a single 0.1 second tone shall be generated. The previously described modes shall operate independently. For example, if a communication fault and a failure condition existed simultaneously, the alarm would emit a continuous tone. If the FAILURE pushbutton was depressed, the audible alarm would start beeping until the COMM FAULT pushbutton is depressed. If a caution signal were to occur, the alarm would beep once. The substation control panel audible alarm shall not be active when the system is in ATCT mode nor shall the remote control panel audible alarm be active when the system is in MAINT mode. When the MPS, MDT, or Flasher Tester takes operational control of the ALSF-2 system refer to paragraph 3.4.16 and its subparagraphs.
