KMH 880/KTA 870 1.3.2 Basic TAS System The Airborne TAS system is capable of surveillance of aircraft equipped with tran- sponders (i.e., Mode S and Mode C) able to reply to ATCRBS Mode C interroga- tions in their operational environments. This is a step toward determining potential collisions and displaying traffic advisory information to the pilot.
Page 18
KMH 880/KTA 870 A Multifunctional Display Unit, KMD 540, shall provide control and display of traffic (via the KAC 504 Traffic Card) and control and display of EGPWS data (via the KAC 502 Adapter Card). Other displays that are compatible with ARINC 735A may be used for traffic with this system.

TSO Mode The EGPWS has provisions to allow the selection of alerting/warning curves which comply with the requirements of TSO C151a class B or an alternate set of warning curves which are optimized for some General Aviation operations which do not require compliance with TSO C151a-class B.
Page 20
KMH 880/KTA 870 This option is programmed into the EGPWS configuration module during sys- tem installation and thus remains specific to the aircraft. Once set up, any Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning Computer installed in the aircraft will access the configuration module and provide the appropriate mode of opera- tion.
Page 21
KMH 880/KTA 870 GPS Data can also be supplied via the ARINC 743, 743A and RS 232 (KLN94) interfaces. A GPS Antenna Splitter could be used in liew of installing another antenna. B. TAS System 1. TAS Modes of Operation a.

KMH 880/KTA 870 UNIT AND ACCESSORIES SUPPLIED 1.5.1 TAS Processor Unit The TAS Processor will provide intruder surveillance and tracking, generating traf- fic advisories for both Altitude-Reporting and Non-Altitude-Reporting intruders to display potential conflicts and advisories to the flight crew. The TAS Processor will track intruders under surveillance and analyze range and range rate data, and altitude of the traffic to determine whether that intruder repre- sents a threat.
KMH 880/KTA 870 1.5.3 Antennas Full bearing coverage will be achieved by the use of a top and bottom directional antenna system. The TAS Processor will also be capable of supporting a top directional and bottom monopole antenna configuration. In the latter configuration, only intruders being tracked via the top directional antenna will have bearing infor- mation.

KMH 880/KTA 870 SECTION II INSTALLATION INTRODUCTION This section contains suggestions and factors to consider before installing the KMH 880/ KTA 870 System. Close adherence to these suggestions will assure satisfactory perfor- mance from the equipment. NOTE The conditions and tests performed on the system components are mini- mum performance standards.
KMH 880/KTA 870 CAUTION AFTER INSTALLATION OF THE CABLING AND BEFORE INSTALLATION OF THE EQUIPMENT, A CHECK SHOULD BE MADE WITH THE AIRCRAFT PRIMARY POWER SUP- PLIED TO THE MOUNTING CONNECTOR, TO ENSURE THAT POWER IS APPLIED ONLY TO THE PINS SPECFIED IN THE INTERWIRING DIAGRAMS IN SECTION III.
Page 39
KMH 880/KTA 870 C. GPS Antenna location and coaxial cable length D. Ability to extract and insert new terrain/obstacle Data Bases supplied on a CompactFlash Card. If possible, install the KMH 820/KTA 810 in a dry, temperature-controlled area such as within the passenger compartment of the aircraft. Standard avionics bays are accepable as well.
KMH 880/KTA 870 If possible, clearance to the top of the KMH 820 should be provided to facilitate removal and installation of the terrain database CompactFlash card. The terrain database card is removed and installed with power NOT applied to the system. The KMH 820 may be removed from the aircraft to extract and install database cards if the mounting location does not provide enough clearance.
KMH 880/KTA 870 2.2.4 Configuration Module Installation System configuration is defined via a Configuration Module which contains the aircraft interface and functionality definitions specific to the installed aircraft. 2.2.4.1 Cooling Considerations A. Make sure that the unit is installed in a location where the ambient tem- peratures are -67°F to +158°F (-55°C to +70°C).

KMH 880/KTA 870 2.2.5 DIRECTIONAL ANTENNA INSTALLATION 2.2.5.1 KA 815 Antenna Installation Considerations A. Antenna Location NOTE The following antenna location procedure is provided for guidance pur- poses and to outline a method of achieving certifiable system perfor- mance. The KMH 880/KTA 870 System uses a top-mounted directional antenna and either a bottom-mounted directional or an L-band omni-directional antenna.
Page 50
KMH 880/KTA 870 Obstructions and ground plane discontinuities, such as door hatches, cowl- ings and unriveted airframe skin overlaps must be 18 inches from the near- est edge of the TAS Antenna. Other antennas, particularly high profile and L- band transponder antennas, cannot be located in front of or within 30 inches (edge to edge) of the top mounted TAS directional antenna.
KMH 880/KTA 870 2.2.6 GPS ANTENNA INSTALLATION 2.2.6.1 KA 92 Antenna Installation Considerations (KMH 820 P/N 066-01175- 2101 only) A. The KA 92 GPS Antenna should be mounted on top of the fuselage near the cockpit and in the centerline of the aircraft. Avoid mounting the antenna near any projections, and the tail of the aircraft, where shadows could occur.

KMH 880/KTA 870 2.2.7 TAS Coaxial Cable Fabrication The TAS cables must have an attenuation of 2.0 ± 1.0 dB within the frequency band of 1030-1090 MHZ. To ensure proper phase matching, each of the four cables of a set must be of the same type.
KMH 880/KTA 870 2.2.8 GPS Coaxial Cable Fabrication The GPS Antenna Splitter allows the existing KA 91 or KA 92 GPS antenna to be interfaced to the KMH 820 EGPWS. The following criteria must be observed when using the antenna splitter: 1.
Refer to figure 3-3 for the KMH 880/KTA 870 system diagram. There are several intercon- nect drawings for popular equipment that interface with the KMH 880/KTA 870. The installing agency should contact Honeywell International Inc. Product Support at (800) 257-0726 for information regarding the compatibility of equipment not listed in this man- ual.

KMH 880/KTA 870 3.1.5 Baro Altitude (ARINC 429) Input Baro Altitude will be input to the TAS Processor via the Baro Altitude ARINC 429 low speed input bus. This bus may also be used as an ARINC 419 low speed input bus. The ARINC 706 Air Data Computer will interface to the TAS Processor using the ARINC 429 input ports and the ARINC 575 Air Data Com- puter will interface to the TAS Processor using the ARINC 419 input ports.
KMH 880/KTA 870 3.1.8 Visual Annunciate Traffic (Lamp Output) The “Visual Annuciator Traffic” output is activated whenever a traffic advisory is issued. This output will remain in the activated state for the duration of the advisory unless cancelled or inhibited. ACTIVE = GROUND ( <...
KMH 880/KTA 870 3.1.10 Air Temperature Input Outside Air Temperature is an optional input. This can come from a number of sources such as ARINC 429/575 Air Data or a dedicated AOT probe. EGPWS is capable of interfacing directly to a standard 500 ohm temperature probe for low temperature operations.
KMH 880/KTA 870 3.1.12 Factory Test Input When active, the EGPWS will go into the Factory Test Mode. The TAS Proces- sor and the Automatic Test Equipment will interface via RS-232 and the ATE Test Pins.
