3A.81.3 ALIGN STATIONARY (STAT) Button. The<br />

ALIGN STAT button is displayed only when the state of<br />

the NAV mode button is set to SEA and the primary and/or<br />

secondary INU has a position from the GPS or has been<br />

manually entered and that it is ready to initiate a stationary<br />

navigation system alignment.<br />

3A.81.4 ALIGN MOVE Button. The ALIGN MOVE button<br />

displayed only when the state of the NAV mode button is<br />

set to SEA and the primary and/or secondary INU has a position<br />

from the GPS or has been manually entered and that it is<br />

ready to initiate a moving navigation system alignment.<br />

These are only displayed when on the ground in SEA mode.<br />

3A.81.5 DOPPLER Button. The DOPPLER button enables<br />

or disables the Doppler.<br />

3A.81.6 ASE AUTOPAGE Button.<br />

The ASE AUTO-<br />

PAGE button is used to select the state or condition of an<br />

acquiring threat system which causes autopaging of<br />

threat warning information. The ASE AUTOPAGE is<br />

crewstation independent. The available selections are:<br />

• SEARCH<br />

• ACQUISITION<br />

• TRACK<br />

• OFF<br />

3A.81.7 TIME Button. The TIME button sets the display<br />

mode of time to LOCAL or ZULU.<br />

3A.81.8 SYSTEM TIME Button. The SYSTEM TIME<br />

button sets the current LOCAL or ZULU time. The ZULU<br />

time must be entered before the LOCAL time. When a ZULU<br />

System Time is entered, the system processor sets its clock<br />

to the entered time, and sends this time to the respective primary<br />

and secondary EGIs if their respective GPS is not tracking<br />

enough satellites. To determine if the GPS used the time,<br />

monitor the Satellite Status window. If the time entered is<br />

used, the respective GPS Satellite ID numbers in the Satellite<br />

Status window, will momentarily blank, then reappear.<br />

3A.81.9 SYSTEM DATE Button. The SYSTEM DATE<br />

button sets the current date. When a system date is entered,<br />

the system processor sets its Date to the entered<br />

system date, and sends this date to the respective primary<br />

and secondary EGIs if their respective GPS is not tracking<br />

enough satellites. To determine if the GPS used the date,<br />

monitor the Satellite Status window. If the date entered is<br />

used, the respective GPS Satellite ID numbers in the Satellite<br />

Status window, will momentarily blank, then reappear.<br />

3A.81.10 DATUM Button. The DATUM button allows<br />

entry of a new datum in place of the default datum entered<br />

at the mission planning station. If the pilot enters a D using<br />

the KU, the system returns to the default datum and automatic<br />

datum updates, based on the current waypoints and<br />

their datums in the current route being flown.<br />

NOTE<br />

When the INU is reset or power is applied to<br />

the INU, the MPD will not display symbols<br />

that use INU information until the INU determines<br />

that its data is valid.<br />

3A.81.11 Navigation (NAV) Mode Button. The NAV<br />

mode button selects the navigation mode: (LAND or SEA)<br />

The primary System Processor (SP), upon generator power<br />

up, automatically controls initialization and alignment of the<br />

EGIs of the aircraft. Upon system power up, the last NAV<br />

mode stored LAND or SEA, at power down will be selected<br />

automatically by the SP. The flight crew should confirm the<br />

correct moding of LAND or SEA (SEA-Stationary or Moving)<br />

for the initialization/alignment process based on the current<br />

aircraft configuration. After takeoff, (in-flight) the Navigation<br />

Mode switch is used to select LAND or SEA using the criteria<br />

of where the aircraft is to be primarily operated for the mission.<br />

The LAND mode is used when operating primarily over<br />

terrain. The SEA mode is used when operating primarily over<br />

water. When the LAND or SEA mode selection is made inflight,<br />

there will be no apparent change to the flight crew (with<br />

the exception of the displayed LAND or SEA mode) but the<br />

navigation system will change the weighting of the Doppler<br />

velocity data to provide the best navigational accuracy (most<br />

significantly during degraded navigation modes).<br />

3A.81.12 POSITION CONFIDENCE Status Window.<br />

The POSITION CONFIDENCE status window in<br />

the upper area of the page presents position confidence<br />

status for INU1 and INU2. This value represents the 95%<br />

probable radial position error of the position estimate of<br />

latitude and longitude. It is displayed in WHITE when the<br />

value is greater than 50 meters, FAILED, or when the INU<br />

is not installed.<br />

3A.81.13 DOPPLER DATA Status Window. The DOP-<br />

PLER DATA status window provides the Doppler aiding<br />

status of INU1 and INU2: USED, REJECTED (WHITE), or<br />

MEMORY (WHITE).<br />

Use or disclosure of this information is subject to the restriction(s) on the title page of this document.<br />
