The current state of CNI operation is shown on the

DED and is automatically displayed on initial power

up of the upfront controls or may be selected by

positioning the data control switch (DCS) to RTN

momentarily.

CNI Readout/DED Page Summary

The CNI page displays data concerning the UHF

(COM 1), VHF (COM 2), steerpoints, IFF, system

time, and TACAN. The CNI page displays its data on

five lines.

The first line displays information concerning the

UHF radio mode, preset channel or manual

frequency, and current steerpoint number. The label

at the far left indicates the radio mode (either UHF

or HQ). UHF is displayed when the normal mode is

selected; HQ is displayed when the AJ mode is

selected. The UHF/HQ label is highlighted when the

UHF VHF IFF transmit switch is keyed to UHF.

Adjacent to the mode label is the preset UHF

channel, if one is selected. If a preset channel is not

selected, this area contains the manual frequency.

The right side of the first line displays navigation

information. If a steerpoint is selected, STPT is

displayed. If an initial point is selected, IP is

displayed. Adjacent to the steerpoint label is the

number of the current steerpoint. Line one displays

UHF (normal mode), the selected preset UHF

channel (10), and the selected steerpoint (STPT 5).

The left side of the second line displays the status of

the UHF radio and default value indication. During

normal operation, this area is blank. OFF, BUP, and

GRD are other indications of UHF radio status. OFF

is displayed when the power is turned off with the

COMM 1 power knob. When BACKUP or GUARD is

selected, BUP or GRD is displayed. The middle area

of line two is blank during normal operation. If the

upfront controls memory is lost, the upfront controls

revert to default values and DFLT is displayed in the

middle of line two. DFLT is displayed if UFC memory

is lost and the UFC automatically uses default

values. The right side of the second line can display

wind direction and velocity. When the SEQ position

of the DCS is activated, wind direction (referenced to

magnetic north) and velocity, in knots, is displayed.

When the SEQ position of the DCS is again

activated, wind data is blanked. If wind data is

displayed when the CNI page is exited, wind data is

displayed when the CNI page is reentered . Wind

data is not displayed upon UFC powerup.

The third line displays VHF (COM 2) function,

preset channel or manual frequency, and system

time. The left side of line three always displays the

radio mode label VHF. When the UHF VHF IFF

transmit switch is keyed to VHF, the VHF label is

highlighted. Adjacent to the VHF label is the active

preset channel or manual frequency number. The

right side of line three shows VHF, active preset VHF

channel (12), and system time.

The fourth line displays the status of the VHF radio.

A blank area indicates normal operation. OFF

indicates that the power is off, and GRD indicates

that GUARD has been selected. The CNI readout/

DED page summary displays blank for normal

operation. The right side of the fourth line also

displays hack time anytime the stopwatch is

activated.

The fifth line displays IFF and TACAN information.

The area at the far left displays IFF modes selected.

M, which stands for mode, is always displayed; 1, 2,

3/A, 4, C, and S are displayed when the

corresponding mode is selected. When a mode 4 reply

is issued, the 4 is highlighted. The next area of line

five displays the fourdigit code associated with IFF

mode 3/A. The next area displays IFF status. During

normal operation, this area is blank. OFF, STBY,

BUP, and AUTO are other indications of IFF status.

OFF is displayed when the power is turned off with

the IFF MASTER knob. When STANDBY or

BACKUP is selected, STBY or BUP is displayed.

AUTO is displayed when the automatic transponder

switching function of IFF is selected. The right side

displays TACAN channel number and band. TACAN

channel number and band are not displayed when

TACAN radio is off or in backup. The CNI

readout/DED page summary displays IFF modes 1,

3/A, 4, C, and S selected, 4567 (mode 3/A code),

AUTO (automatic transponder switching function),

T123 (TACAN channel number), and X (TACAN

band).

To change preset channels or steerpoint numbers,

the up/down triangles must be next to the item to be

changed. When the DCS is positioned up or down,

the up/down triangles move between the steerpoint

and the UHF and VHF preset channels. With the

up/down triangles next to the desired item, the

steerpoint/channel can be changed by depressing the

increment/decrement switch until the desired

steerpoint or channel is selected. If a manual

frequency is selected, the triangles are displayed but

are not functional. The up/down triangles are

displayed at the steerpoint number during initial

upfront control powerup. UHF, VHF, IFF, TACAN,

and ILS detailed operation using the upfront

controls is described under their respective system.

COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM

The aircraft communications system consists of a

HAVE QUICK UHF radio, a VHF radio, and an

intercom set. Communications are controlled by the

upfront controls, two audio control panels, a UHF

radio backup control panel, and an

PX II

AUX COMM

panel,

PX III

IFF control panel.

ANTENNA LOCATIONS

Refer to figure 181.

HAVE QUICK (HQ) SYSTEM

The HQ system provides normal and antijamming,

airtoair, and airtoground UHF communication

capability. The usual operating mode for an HQ UHF

radio is in the normal mode where the radio uses 1 of

7000 channels. The antijamming (AJ) mode uses a

frequency hopping scheme to change the channel or

frequency many times per second. Because the

particular frequency used at any instant depends on

the precise time of day (TOD), both participating HQ

UHF radios must have clocks which are synchro

nized. In addition, the HQ UHF radio uses word of

day (WOD) and net number in the AJ mode.

Single Word of Day (WOD)

The WOD entry is normally entered before flight, but

it is possible to enter it in flight. WOD is entered by

using the six preset channels 1520. The WOD

elements are entered with the manual frequency

knobs and the PRESET button. For a new WOD

entry, start at preset channel 15 and enter an element

using the same method as in entering preset

frequencies in the normal mode. Progressively select

the next higher preset channel (1620) and continue

to enter WOD elements into preset memory. A short

tone is heard when the PRESET button is depressed

for channel 20. This tone indicates that the WOD

element for channel 20 was accepted and transferred

to the radio. The WOD is stored in the nonvolatile

preset channel memory until a WOD transfer occurs.

This procedure overwrites preset channels 1520.

Single WOD Transfer

The WOD must be transferred from the nonvolatile

preset channel memory to the volatile WOD memory

for HQ operation. Progressively select the next lower

channel (1915) until a double beep is heard at

channel 15. A double beep indicates that all WOD

elements have been transferred to the volatile

memory.

When the HQ radio is off, the WOD data is not lost,

but is stored in nonvolatile preset memory. When the

radio is initially turned on, the WOD must be

transferred to the volatile memory. To transfer WOD

data to the volatile memory, select preset mode and

repeat the steps described above.

PX III

Single WOD transfer is done automatically at

power up if the single WOD method was used for

Multiple Word of Day (MWOD)

MWOD capability allows for up to six WOD's and

dates to be stored at one time into nonvolatile MWOD

memory. If the radio is turned off or power is lost after

entry of MWOD and date codes, the data is not lost;

therefore, the information remains intact until

manually changed. The six most recent WOD's are

retained. If a WOD with a duplicate date is entered,

the new entry takes precedence. After the MWOD

information is entered, the operational date must be

entered so the radio can select the proper WOD. If

power is lost, the operational date is lost and must be

reentered. However, if a TOD is received, the

operational date is automatically entered as part of

the TOD message. To access MWOD load, select

preset mode, enter 220.025 in channel 20, and

depress

PX II

PRESET,

PX III

LOAD (MLOAD is

displayed) button. Next, select manual mode and load

word of day elements in channels 2015 by

PX II

depressing the TONE button,

PX III

positioning the

TTONE switch to TONE. After each entry is made,

a tone is heard. After the first WOD is entered, the

corresponding date code is entered by selecting

channel 14. The date code is represented by the

format 3AB.000, where AB equals the day of the

month; e.g., 315.000 indicates the 15th of the month.

Press the

PX II

TONE button,

PX III

TTONE switch

to complete the date entry.
