MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 1. General This section contains data for the function and the operation of the Honeywell CAS-100 Collision Avoidance System, hereafter referred as the CAS-100, TCAS, or by its full nomenclature. The CAS-100 components are shown in Figure 1. A. Purpose of Equipment CAS-100 is an airborne traffic alert and collision avoidance advisory system that operates without the support from Air Traffic Control (ATC) ground stations.
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM Repetitious TCAS interrogations in the Mode S and the Mode C formats monitor the aircraft positions. The transponders reply after a set interval when interrogated. The measurement of time between interrogation transmission and reply reception lets TCAS find the range of the intruder. If the intruder transponder uses an altimeter input, TCAS receives the intruder altitude reports in the replies and can find the altitude of the intruder.
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM TCAS equipment operates at the same transmit and receive frequencies as ground stations (1030 MHz transmit and 1090 MHz receive).
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM Table 1 lists the equipment type, the Honeywell part numbers, and provides a brief description of the TPA-100A TCAS processor, directional antenna array, omnidirectional antenna, TA/VSI indicator unit, RA/VSI indicator unit, dedicated TCAS traffic display, Mode S transponder, and Mode S transponder/TCAS control units.

MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM 4. System Description A.
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (2) Tracking Function • Tracks maximum 45 combined Mode S and Mode A/C transponder equipped intruder aircraft. Tracks range of intruder aircraft. Tracks intruder relative bearing if tracking is occurring on a directional antenna. Tracks intruder relative altitude if intruder is reporting altitude. • Calculates estimated intruder relative position. • Calculates closing range rate. • Calculates altitude change rate if intruder is reporting altitude.
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (7) Air-to-Air Coordination Function A maneuvering coordination data link is established with the intruder if the intruder aircraft is TCAS equipped and becomes a threat . This data link makes sure that the resolution advisories in the two TCAS equipped aircraft are controlled and compatible. The control links are established between the two TCAS systems through the Mode S transponder.
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (d) Own aircraft identification (ID) code (transponder ID) received on the ARINC 429 data bus from own Mode S transponder. Own aircraft identification is input to the transponder through 24 discrete bit strapped inputs. Own aircraft identification is used by the TCAS processor during air-to-air coordination procedures. (e) Own aircraft maximum airspeed data received on the ARINC 429 data bus from own Mode S transponder.

MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (k) Five discrete input from RA/TA Intruder Display Limit straps. These straps determine the maximum number of aircraft that can be shown on the traffic display (from 1 to 30). (l) Discrete input from Ground Display Mode strap. This input determines if the traffic is shown when own aircraft is on-the-ground. (m) Discrete input from RA/TA Display All Traffic Mode strap.
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (3) (q) Six discrete input from synthesized Audio Level Control straps. Three of these straps determine the audio output levels to the speaker and phones when the aircraft is airborne. The other three straps determine the audio output levels when the aircraft is on the ground. (r) Discrete input from Functional Test Inhibit Strap. This input determines if the TCAS functional test is inhibited when the aircraft is airborne.
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (c) The TCAS processor starts to interrogate the intruder if a correct Mode S squitter message is sensed. The Mode S equipped intruder is put into the track if an interrogated Mode S equipped aircraft is in TCAS Mode S tracking range and altitude. The mode S track changes are then done. These changes include the TCAS processor formatting and transmitting 1030 MHz Mode S interrogation messages on the directional antenna and/or the omni antenna.

MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (g) The TCAS processor calculates the correct resolution advisory to keep or make sure of the safe separation between own and threat category aircraft. The TCAS processor then outputs resolution advisory data on the ARINC 429 buses to the TA/VSI or RA/VSI units. RA traffic symbol position and alert data is output on the ARINC 429 data bus to the TA/VSI or PPI display unit.
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (m) The TCAS processor also controls: 1 Scheduling for interrogations done on the directional and omni antennas. 2 TCAS sensitivity level operating modes. 3 Generation of coasting data during the periods when tracking data is temporarily not found. NOTE: For more details, refer to applicable Mode S Transponder manual, recorded in Table Intro-1.
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (q) If the ADS-B program pin is strapped as part of the installation approval process, the use and display of passive/ADS-B data must be validated. Part of this process will include: 1 Ensure that the existing displays which do not process the DTIF output do still correctly receive and process the standard TCAS traffic file. 2 The consolidation and symbology associated with the DTIF must be approved and certified.
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (5) Rear Connector A six section rear connector supplies the system connects to the TCAS processor. The six sections of the connector are shown left bottom plug (LBP), right bottom plug (RBP), left middle plug (LMP), right middle plug (RMP), left top plug (LTP), and right top plug (RTP). The Figure 8 shows the external devices connected to each of the six sections of the connector.
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM TCAS Transmit and Receive Beam Patterns for Directional Antenna Figure 7 All pulses in a TCAS (Mode S) message transmission from the directional antenna are radiated as a directional main beam pattern. To get the main beam pattern, the four signals representing each transmit pulse are phase shifted by the TCAS processor. The phase shifting set on the four elements shows the direction of the main beam to be transmitted (one of four beams).
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM ATCRBS Mode A/C transponders in the adjacent airspace that sense a suppression beam signal larger in amplitude than the main beam signal, are prevented from replying to the interrogation. The result of the ATCRBS P2 hold back is to control the good TCAS interrogation beam width and thus limit interference from unwanted ATCRBS receptions.
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM C. TA/VSI Display (1) General The IVA-81A/D Resolution Advisory/Traffic Advisory/Vertical Speed Indicator (TA/VSI) display is a high resolution, sunlight readable, full color, liquid crystal display (LCD) (Figures 2011, 2012, and 2013). The indicator lets resolution advisory and traffic data be shown in the space previously for display of vertical speed only. Vertical speed is shown on a standard circular dial with a pointer.
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (3) Traffic Display The TA/VSI traffic display shows adjacent intruder aircraft that have Mode S or ATCRBS Mode A/C transponders, are sensed on a directional antenna, and are in the display range. NOTE: The TCAS processor interface also supports traffic displays on a dedicated TCAS traffic display or a PPI radar display changed for TCAS. The unit set to show traffic depends on equipment present in the aircraft and other user specifications.
MAINTENANCE MANUAL CAS-100 COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (j) Display range limit control, ABOVE/NORM/BELOW nonthreat altitude display limit control, and relative/flight level altitude display control data originating from the transponder/TCAS control unit and received by the traffic display through the Mode S transponder and TCAS processor.
