ACSS® Thales Company Service Bulletin
1. PLANNING INFORMATION A. Effectivity ATA Service Bulletin No. 9000000-34-6016 (ACSS Pub. No. 8008233-001) is applicable to T'CAS Computer Unit, Part No. 9000000-10002 thru -10006, -10008, -10204, -10205, -10206, and - 10208, Part No. 9000000-20002 thru -20006, -20008, -20204, -20205 -20206, and -20208, and Part No. 9000000-55002 thru -55006, -55008, -55204, -55205, -55206, and -55208.
B. Concurrent Requirements If a TCAS 2000 Manual Test Station (MTS) is used to load the operational software, one of the Service Bulletins that follows must be done before or in conjunction with this Bulletin:
• ATE Bulletin Pub. No. 8008300-001 (ATA Service Bulletin No. 9000000-34-6020) which installs test program Part No. 9000237-001 for PCs with Windows NT operating system or
• ATE Bulletin Pub. No. 8008299-001 (ATA Service Bulletin No. 9000000-34-6019) which installs test program Part No. 9000948-001 for PCs with Windows XP operating system.
C. Reason New Operational Software, Part No. 9001049-005, incorporates updates to the Interference Limiting functionality. These updates improve tracking of nearby Mode-S intruders in high density environments. Customers upgrading from older software versions of TCAS will also gain the benefit of minor changes that have been incorporated into later software releases. These changes include minor improvements to the internal built-in-test operation to reduce nuisance faults and improve overall reliability as well as minor enhancements to input/output signal processing to improve interoperability with other avionic systems.
This update also includes a correction to an issue on some installations whereby the TCAS does not go into STBY mode (TCAS OFF) when the active transponder senses an altitude mis-compare between 2 Gillham altitude inputs or other possible air data failures. This potential issue is dependent on the altitude interface to the transponder and the transponder used. The following helps describe systems with or without the potential issue:
Release Date: June 4, 2010 ATA Service Bulletin No. 9000000-34-6016 Revision 03: June 30, 2011 ACSS Publication No. 8008233-001 Copyright 2011 Aviation Communication & Surveillance Systems, LLC 19810 North 7th Avenue, Phoenix, AZ 85027-4741 Printed in U.S.A. Page 5 of 38
ACSS -a communicati hales Comp Service Bulletin Altitude Interface to Mode S Transponder Potential Issue the Transponder ACSS Part No. 7517800 with any dash Gillham or ARINC 429 No number ACSS Part No. 7519350 with any dash Gillham or ARINC No number 429 ACSS Part No. 7510700-850, -951, - ARINC 429 No 952, -953 ACSS Part No 7510700-850, -951, - Gillham Yes 952, -953 Other Manufacturer's Mode S Check with test Any Transponders shown below.
TEST: To check for possible system issue, check for system response while powered up and valid, then simulate invalid primary altitude to the active transponder by pulling that altitude source's circuit breaker. The TCAS display should change to TCAS OFF or TCAS FAIL (the exact annunciation is dependent on the type of transponder and display involved - either indication is acceptable as it indicates that the TCAS is no longer functional in this situation).
The new modification updates the applicable T'CAS Computer Unit to 9000000-10404 thru -10406 and -10408, Part No. 9000000-20404 thru -20406 and -20408, and Part No. 9000000-55404 thru -55406 and -55408.
D. Description This Service Bulletin gives instructions for installing new Operational Software on board the aircraft or by final Acceptance Test on a TCAS 2000 Manual Test Station (MTS).
This Service Bulletin also includes instructions for installing a new software tear-off label on the front of the unit to identify the new dash number.
NOTE: Some units have Product Identification labels made of metalized polyester material. New tear-off labels are all made with white polyester. A mixture of materials on an updated Product Identification Label is permitted.
When this software modification is done at an Authorized Service Center, the entire ACSS label can be replaced.
E. Compliance This Service Bulletin is highly recommended because it has an effect on aircraft safety.
This Service Bulletin has been written in support of a potential FAA Airworthiness Directive. Do this conversion as soon as possible. The FAA Airworthiness Directive will identify the compliance schedule.
