IBU/VAD

The IBU/VAD sends IR signals to the soldiers with PDDs inside the

vehicle. The result is that the PDDs start the communication with the

WTS on the vehicle. The WTS then sends a message to EXCON that

there are PDDs in the vehicle.

If the vehicle is hit, the target system calculates the effect for the

vehicle and send the result to the PDDs. Each PDD will then calculate

the effect in the PDD.

2.4.7 Power system description

The WTS requires 1- or 2-cell batteries or a 12 VDC power from the

host vehicle via a vehicle power outlet.

Note!

When the power cable is connected, the batteries in the WCU

will be charged.
