2 Basic Operation

This section explains how to use features of the avionics software packages that are common to all of the options. These options can only be used in conjunction with the provided Gui Windows application software due to the amount of selections and data presentation involved. As such, these tests require the use of a PC running Windows XP / 2000 and cannot be operated from the front panel. PC system requirements are the same that are called out to run the gui program, however a 3GHz or higher processor and 512 MB of RAM or more is recommended if generating reports due to the high processing power required. Use of Windows Vista is possible but not recommended.

The avionics software options are completely data file driven to allow a large degree of customization by the end-user if needed so many changes can be supported without the need for software updates.

If purchasing an option after purchasing a unit, the Gui may need to be updated to run the optional software. If the option and the power source are purchased at the same time, no update will be needed to run the software. The Gui program is supplied with all systems free of charge on CD ROM CIC496. It can also be downloaded or updated from the California Instruments web site (www.calinst.com).

2.1 General Test Procedure

Generally, the following steps are needed to perform an avionics test on an EUT.

1. Connect the EUT to the power source.

2. Select the correct mode of operation for the EUT, AC or DC mode, single or three-phase mode (if applicable).

3. Program the relevant nominal voltage and frequency using the Gui main screen.

4. Apply power by closing the output relay. This can be done at a later stage or will be done automatically after prompting the operator when a test is started.

5. Open the avionics option control screen from the Applications menu or click on the appropriate toolbar icon.

6. Select the correct test revision or use the default.

7. Select the correct Power Group Test Category.

12 Avionics Software

User Manual - Rev H California Instruments

Control / Display

Description

Select Revision.

This drop down control allows the operator to select from one or more libraries of test sequences grouped by revision. The GUI program is supplied with predefined revisions of test sequences.

Power Group Test Table

A library can contain a number of power group test tables. These table names correspond to the Power Groups identified in the specific standard, and are listed in their section of this manual. The operator cannot select a group that is not supported by the present mode of operation of the power source. Thus, if the power source is in AC mode, an error message will be displayed when trying to select a DC group. Operating modes such as AC or DC must be changed from the main GUI screen. The test control screen can remain open while switching back to the main screen. Upon return to the test control screen, the relevant power groups can be selected.

The operator needs to determine what the relevant power group selection is for the unit under test. (EUT). When switching power groups, the table data shown at the bottom of this tab will be updated to reflect the new selection. The first test section of the table will automatically be selected when switching power groups.

Present Power Source Output Settings

This section displays the programmed steady state settings that are in effect. This information is updated each time the test control form regains focus. The mode of operation (AC, DC or AC+DC) is displayed for reference but cannot be changed from this screen. When in DC mode, the frequency setting will show “DC”. Note that changes in steady state settings can only be made from the main GUI screen. The operator can toggle between the main screen and the test control screen for this purpose as needed.

Table Header

The table header is shown against a blue background and contains the table reference designator and a description of the selected power group.

Test Table Display

The data grid at the bottom of the tab displays the selected power group test table. It is also used to select the specific test section and number to be executed. Thus, every test starts by selecting the desired test step from this table. Clicking on the desired ROW does this. The selected row will be highlighted and the associated file shown in the File Ref. Field will be loaded in the Test Control tab. For better readability, the user can adjust the column widths by dragging the dividers between columns. If the window is too small to display all rows and columns, scroll bars will appear at the bottom and/or right of the data grid. The following fields are displayed in the test data tables.

Control / Display

Description

Execution Controls

The Start and Abort buttons are used to start and stop the selected test step. The execution mode that will be used is determined by the Execution Options setting. The same can be accomplished using the Run menu entries. When operating in Single Step or Loop mode, make sure the desired test step is selected in the test sequence table at the bottom of this tab as this will be the one used by the program.

Execution Options

The execution options determine the mode of operation when the Start button is clicked. Available execution modes and settings are:

Execute all steps

In this mode, all steps in the test sequence will be executed sequentially until the end of the table is reached.

Single Step

Runs only the selected test step. When operating in Single Step mode, make sure the desired test step is selected in the test sequence table at the bottom of this tab before clicking on the Start button.

Loop on Step

In this mode, the same step will be executed repeatedly until the operator clicks on the Abort button. In this mode, the Complete test progress status bar may run past its maximum and will no longer update as the total test time is determined by the operator now and not the program.

2.4 Test Control

User Manual - Rev H California Instruments

Control / Display

Description

Revert to Steady State on Abort

When selected, the output of the power source will be set back to the steady state settings in effect before the start of the test when the operator aborts a test. Normally, the output of the source at the end of a test run is determined by the settings in the test sequence file loaded.

Options

This section contains additional options that can be set by the operator as needed. The following options are available:

Auto Acquire EUT Data after execution

When set, this option causes the GUI program to initiate an EUT performance data measurement sequence automatically at the end of a test (normal mode) or test step (single step mode).

Show Phase B, C data

For three-phase EUTs, data for phases B and C can be displayed as well. In most cases, the settings for all three phases are the same and there is no need to display them all as it takes up screen space. However, this is not the case for voltage imbalance tests. This is a display feature only and has no effect on the actual test. Note however that if the power source is in single-phase mode, settings for phase B and C will be ignored. The phase mode of the power source can only be changed from the main GUI screen.

External Trigger Output

An external trigger signal is provided through the trigger out connection during test execution. There are two modes of operation that can be selected: BOT mode: Beginning of transient. In this mode, a trigger pulse is generated at the first step of each sub list. A sub list may consist of one or more rows as indicated by the value of the link field. Note that most test scripts consist of multiple short sub lists to support single step mode. List Mode: This mode adds a Trig column to the test sequence table. A trigger will be generated for each entry in the trigger column that is set to 1. Any other value including empty will not generate a trigger out. In this mode, the user has to set one or more triggers. Setting a trigger can be done by double clicking on the trigger column with the left mouse button and entering 1.

Test Status

This area of the Test Control tab displays test execution status for each individual test step as well as the complete test. The top section shows the complete test time and what part has been completed so far. The bottom section shows the same information for the present test step.

Test Description

The area at the top of the Test Control tab is used to display additional information about the selected test tab. It is for information purposes only and has no effect on the actual test execution.

Table Header

The table header is shown against a yellow background and shows the table from which this test sequence was selected.

Test Sequence Data Grid

The test sequence data grid displays the specific parameters used to program the power source. This data implements the required tests. The parameters are loaded for the referenced ini file in the test table on the Test Selection tab. It is possible to edit this information if needed which allows variations on any of these tests to be made. Any changes can be saved to a new file. The standard provided test files are write protected however and should not be overwritten. The following columns/data fields are available in this table for each test step (row).

Description

Parameters

This tab displays the parametric measurement data in tabular form. This includes voltage, current, power, power factor, distortion etc. For three-phase EUT‟s data is shown for all three phases. For single phase EUT, data is shown for phase A only as long as the power source is in single-phase mode.

The top half of the Parameters tab displays all parametric measurement data. The following data is available:

Volt RMS (V)

Displays source voltage per phase in Volt RMS or DC depending on power source mode of operation.

Curr RMS (A)

Displays EUT current per phase in amps RMS or DC depending on power source mode of operation.

App. Power (VA)

Inrush Current (A)

Displays peak current detected per phase in Amps since last measurement was taken.

Power Factor

Displays power factor for each phase. If one or more phases is outside the allowable limits, a Fail indication is displayed.

Current Distortion (%)

Displays Total Current Distortion for each phase in percent of fundamental current. Limits are applied when the specification calls them out, otherwise the user can set the limits by modifying the limits text file.

The bottom half of the Parameters tab contains user controls and a text entry field for entering observations regarding the EUT operation.

Test Frequency Dropdown control

The frequency selection drop down control is active only for Variable Frequency tables and can be used to set the frequency at which data from the EUT is to be acquired. For all other modes, it is fixed to either 400 Hz or DC.

Acquire Data at all frequencies

This button causes data to be acquired at all frequencies available in the Test Frequency Dropdown control. For all constant frequency, this button functions like the Update Meas. Button located above the sub tabs.

Abort Meas.

This button aborts measurements in progress. In case of Variable Frequency Tables, acquiring data at all 12 frequency settings can take a long time. This button allows this process to be aborted.

Read Meas. Data from File

This button reads measurement data from disk. Each time measurement data is acquired by the GUI, it is saved to an ASCII text file. A separate file is used for each frequency or DC setting. To recall data taken at a specific frequency setting, select the desired frequency using the Test Frequency Dropdown control before clicking on this button. Note that all measurement data files are saved in the Reports subdirectory of the GUI application directory using file name

convention “MeasData_option_nnn_Hz.txt” where „option‟ is

the avionics option and „nnn‟ is the frequency setting or DC.

Waveforms

This tab displays the voltage and current waveform (time domain) for each phase. The sample rate is automatically set to display about 20 msec of time.

Cur Graph

This tab displays the Current harmonics in a bar graph format. Up to 50 harmonics are displayed.

Cur Spectrum

This tab displays the same current harmonics as the Current Graph tab except in a tabular format. Data is shown in both absolute and relative from (percent of fundamental current). A limit table is applied and a pass or fail indication is shown in the last column. Values that exceed the allowable limits are shown with a red background in the Pass/Fail column.

Note: Usually, the power source measurement bandwidth is less than required to make full compliance current harmonics measurements. This feature is provided for pre-compliance assessment purposes only. A high bandwidth power analyzer with a 100 KHz sampling rate or better is generally required. Harmonics that are outside of

the range of the measurement system are indicated with a “BWL” (bandwidth

limited) label instead of a readout.

2.6 Test Description Files – Creating Custom Tests

The avionics options use a set of configuration files that contain the relevant test descriptions. These files are contained in the test revision folder in the Gui application directory. For example, the DO160

test folder is titled „DO160_RevE‟.

The contents of these tables are defined by the “option_Structure_Tbl_X.ini” configuration files located

in the test revision directory. “X” references the relevant table and “option” is the avionics option (example: DO160_Structure_Tbl_ACF115.ini).

The test description files used to perform a specific test are listed in the last column labeled “Test

File”. These files must be present in the directory.

The structure files cannot be renamed, since they relate to one of the available power groups. The structure files can be completely edited to include as many or as little subsequent tests as desired. The individual test file names can be renamed as needed as long as they are correctly referenced in the structure configuration files. From there, the individual test files can be modified to perform the new test.

Tests can be customized as needed by editing these table configuration and test sequence files. To access these new tests, create a new subdirectory under the application directory. To access any new sub directory from within the test control window, the directory name must be added to the UserTestLibraries text file located in the Gui application directory. This is a simple text file listing all test description directories available.

Example: “DO160UserTestLibraries.txt” file content: MyNew_DBase Dummy_Dir_Entry These two directories listed will now be available for selection from the Test Revision selection in the

160 Test Setup screen. To facilitate creating new test directories, it is easiest to create a copy of the existing directory first and

rename it as required.

Description

Potential cause

2

Current Limit Fault

EUT may require more current than the programmed current limit setting. This is possible on constant power loads during reduced voltage (low line) type test steps. If the power source is set to Constant Voltage (CV) mode, the output will trip off when the current limit is exceeded and a Current Limit fault is generated. In Constant Current (CC) mode, the output voltage will be reduced to reduce the current to the set limit. In this case, no error message will be generated.

113

Undefined Header

Generally caused by a communication problem between the PC and the power source.

If the RS232 interface is used and these problems persist, try using the GPIB interface instead. (Requires National Instruments GPIB controller).

15

Slew exceeds dwell

The power source transient system was programmed to slew to a voltage and/or frequency value that would take longer to accomplish than the slew time set. This error can result in single step mode if the steps are executed out of order or one or more steps are skipped. The voltage/frequency values may no longer line up. Try running the test from the first step.

16

Illegal during transient

A transient step is still in progress. Try using the Abort button to abort any test in progress. If other Gui screens other than the Main GUI screen are open, they may have initiated a transient, which conflicts with the option. Try closing all other Gui windows.

2.7 Avionics Option Related Error Messages

The Gui program will monitor the power source on a regular basis for any run time errors. If an error is reported by the power source, any test step execution will be aborted. Possible errors and error sources are:

Great efforts have been made to check all test sequence files provided as part of the avionics options. However, due to the breadth and complexity of the test databases, an occasional error may occur while using these files. If an error cannot be resolved, turn on the Gui bus monitor window and rerun the test that yields the error and save the bus trace to a text file using the File, Save All menu in the bus monitor window. This file can be emailed to support@calinst.com along with a description of the error.

Furthermore, test files were developed making reasonable assumptions concerning the intent of the avionics test directives. The user is free to modify, edit, revise or otherwise update any of these tests to match his/her own requirements. In this case, we recommend you copy the supplied test revision subdirectory and use this copy to make modifications to. This will preserve the original data provided.

3 Option –160: RTCA/DO-160 Rev E, F Tests

The -160 option supports RTCA/DO-160 rev E and F, Section 16, voltage and frequency immunity tests in either of the AC or DC modes (if available).

The –160 option is based on the RTCA/DO-160 Environmental Conditions and Test Procedures for Airborne Equipment: Section 16 – Power Input dated December 9 2004.

Future revisions of the RTCA/DO-160 directive may be issued over time and updates may be made available to cover any changes in test levels, durations, procedures etc. Furthermore, the –160 option is completely data file driven to allow a large degree of customization by the end-user if needed so many changes can be supported without the need for software updates.

This section of the manual explains the limitations of this test option, the use of special features unique to this option, and gives a complete layout of all tests performed by this option.

This manual is not intended to elaborate on the intent or purpose of the immunity tests and the expected behavior of the EUT as described in the RTCA/DO-160 documents. It is assumed that the end-user is familiar with the content of the RTCA/DO-160 test standard.

3.1 Test Coverage

The comprehensiveness of the tests that can be performed with the –160 option is determined primarily by the capabilities of the power source used. Tests that are outside the hardware capabilities of the power source used will not be enabled and cannot be selected. For these tests, additional equipment may be required as indicated.

3.1.1 MX Series –DO160 Option Limitations

The extent of coverage of the –160 option as implemented on the MX Series platform is shown in the table below. Tests marked with an „x‟ generally require additional hardware to be used. Tests marked „N/A‟ are not applicable to the corresponding table. Tests marked with a „‟ are covered by the –160

option. Tests marked with a „P‟ require arbitrary waveform capability, which is available on Pi models

or base models with the –ADV option only. An –HV indication means the –HV 400Vrms range option is required. Note: The MX15 Series power sources are single phase output only and therefore all

three phase tests are not available on the MX15.

3.1.1.1 Specific Test Limitations and Discrepancies

While every effort has been made to provide comprehensive coverage of the RTCA/DO-160 tests, some limitations apply, largely due to hardware limitations of the MX power source such as available programming resolution or rounding. The following table lists specific implementation issues by test number. The deviation from the standard requirement is shown in the “Actual setting” column. The reason for the deviation is shown in the last column.

3.1.2 i/iX Series –DO160 Option Limitations

26 Avionics Software

The extent of coverage of the –160 option as implemented on the iX Series platform is shown in the

table below. Tests marked with an „x‟ generally require additional hardware to be used. Tests marked

„N/A‟ are not applicable to the corresponding table. Tests marked with a „‟ are covered by the –160 option. Tests marked with a „P‟ require arbitrary waveform capability, which is available on iX models

only. Tests marked with an “I” are available on the i/iX products only. Tests marked with a „C‟ are

available on the Compact iX products only.

3.2 –160 Power Groups

The following twelve power groups are covered in the RTCA/DO-160 directive: Category reference:

- For ac equipment: A(CF), A(NF), and A(WF)

- For dc equipment: A, B, Z

- AC tests can be performed at 115V nominal or 230V nominal, except A(NF) and A(CF),

which can only be done at 115V nominal. All AC line voltages shown are L-N.

- DC tests can be performed at 28V nominal or 14V nominal Definitions: A(CF): designates ac equipment intended for use on aircraft electrical systems where the primary

power is from constant frequency (400 Hz) ac system. A(NF): designates ac equipment intended for use on aircraft electrical systems where the primary

power is from narrow variable frequency (360 to 650 Hz) ac system. A(WF): designates ac equipment intended for use on aircraft electrical systems where the primary

power is from wide variable frequency (360 to 800 Hz) ac system. A: designates dc equipment intended for use on aircraft electrical systems where the dc is generated

from primary power supplied from either a constant or variable frequency ac system. B: designates dc equipment intended for use on aircraft electrical systems supplied by engine-driven

alternator/rectifiers, or dc generators where a battery of significant capacity is floating on the dc bus at all times.

Z: designates dc equipment that may be used on all other types of aircraft electrical systems applicable to these standards. Category Z shall be acceptable for use in lieu of Category A or Category B.

D: designates dc equipment that may be used on all other types of aircraft electrical systems applicable to these standards. Category Z shall be acceptable for use in lieu of Category A or Category B.

The required steady state output settings for each power group must be selected based on the type of EUT to be tested. These settings can be made from the front panel of the power source or from the main Gui control screen.

32 Avionics Software

User Manual - Rev H California Instruments

3.3 –160 Option Special Features

DC ripple tests for 28VDC or 14VDC EUT‟s are provided through a separate control screen. This is

required to extend the range of the ripple frequency to 5000 Hz. The actual requirement for DO160 Rev E is testing up to 150 KHz ripple. This is out of the available range of the power source. To test to the full 150 KHz range, an external audio generator and coupling transformer as outlined in RTCA/DO160, Section 18, Figure 18-1 is required.

The DO160 DC Ripple test screen is available from the main screen, Applications, RTCA/DO160, DC Ripple Test menu. Once selected, the DC ripple test control screen is modal and must be closed before any other tests can be run. Opening this screen requires several seconds as the power source is being set up to perform the DC ripple tests. This screen also places the power source in AC+DC mode.

Available test settings are 14VDC or 28VDC nominal, category A, Z or category B and phase/output selection. For single-phase systems, only phase A can be selected. The test pattern is fixed per section 18.3.1 with a ripple frequency range from 16 Hz to 5000 Hz per Figure 18-2 (Cat A,Z) or 18-3 (Cat B). The frequency slew rate is 30 minutes for each decade covered or one hour and 15 minutes total. Tests can be aborted sooner if needed.

3.4 Test Tables

The tables shown on the next few pages list the test sections covered by the –160 option. Where relevant, the numbering used matches that of the RTCA/DO-160 document. Test tables are listed by power group

4 Option –B787: Boeing 787B3-0147 Rev A, B, and C Tests

The -B787 option supports Boeing 787B3-0147 revs A, B, and C, Section 3.3, voltage and frequency immunity tests in either of the AC or DC modes (if available).

The –B787 option rev C (currently the most recent revision) is based on the Boeing 787 Electrical Power Quality and Design Requirements Document: Section 3.3 – Electrical Power Characteristics dated October 6 2006.

Future revisions of the Boeing 787B3-0147 directive may be issued over time and updates may be made available to cover any changes in test levels, durations, procedures etc. Furthermore, the –787 option is completely data file driven to allow a large degree of customization by the end-user if needed so many changes can be supported without the need for software updates.

This section of the manual explains the limitations of this test option, the use of special features unique to this option, and gives a complete layout of all tests performed by this option.

This manual is not intended to elaborate on the intent or purpose of the immunity tests and the expected behavior of the EUT as described in the Boeing 787B3-0147 documents. It is assumed that the end-user is familiar with the content of the Boeing 787B3-0147 test standard.

4.1 Test Coverage

The comprehensiveness of the tests that can be performed with the –787 option is determined primarily by the capabilities of the power source used. Tests that are outside the hardware capabilities of the power source used will not be enabled and cannot be selected. For these tests, additional equipment may be required as indicated.

4.1.1 MX Series –B787 Option Limitations

The extent of coverage of the –787 option as implemented on the MX Series platform is shown in the table below. Tests marked with an „x‟ generally require additional hardware to be used. Tests marked

„N/A‟ are not applicable to the corresponding table. Tests marked with a „‟ are covered by the –787 option. Tests marked with a „P‟ require arbitrary waveform capability, which is available on Pi models

or base models with the –ADV option only. Note: The MX15 Series power sources are single phase output only and therefore all three phase tests are not available on the MX15.

4.1.1.1 Specific Test Limitations and Discrepancies

While every effort has been made to provide comprehensive coverage of the Boeing 787B3-0147 tests, some limitations apply, largely due to hardware limitations of the MX power source such as available programming resolution or rounding. The following table lists specific implementation issues

by test number. The deviation from the standard requirement is shown in the “Actual setting” column.

The reason for the deviation is shown in the last column.

4.1.2 i/iX Series –B787 Option Limitations

The extent of coverage of the –787 option as implemented on the iX Series platform is shown in the

table below. Tests marked with an „x‟ generally require additional hardware to be used. Tests marked

„N/A‟ are not applicable to the corresponding table. Tests marked with a „‟ are covered by the –787

option. Tests marked with a „P‟ require arbitrary waveform capability, which is available on iX models

only. Tests marked with a „C‟ are available on the Compact iX products only. Tests marked with an “I” are available on the i/iX products only.

4.1.3 Lx/Ls –B787 Option Series Limitations

The extent of coverage of the –787 option as implemented on the Lx/Ls Series platform is shown in the table below. Tests marked with an „x‟ generally require additional hardware to be used. Tests

marked „N/A‟ are not applicable to the corresponding table. Tests marked with a „‟ are covered by

the –787 option. Tests marked with a „P‟ require arbitrary waveform capability, which is available on Lx models or Ls models with the –ADV option only. Note that some voltage surge tests may require optional output voltage ranges on the Lx/Ls and may not be supported on the standard voltage range.

DC tests are NOT supported by the Lx/Ls Series

4.1.3.1 Specific Test Limitations and Discrepancies

While every effort has been made to provide comprehensive coverage of the Boeing 787B3-0147 tests, some limitations apply, largely due to hardware limitations of the Lx power source such as available programming resolution or rounding. The following table lists specific implementation issues by test number. The deviation from the standard requirement is shown in the “Actual setting” column. The reason for the deviation is shown in the last column.

DC tests are NOT supported by the Lx/Ls Series

4.2 –B787 Power Groups

The following twelve power groups are covered in the Boeing 787B3-0147 directive: Category reference:

- For ac equipment: 115V L-N, 235V L-N

- For dc equipment: Type 1 through Type 5, and Type 6 for Rev B and C

Definitions: AC Power Sources: Variable frequency primary AC power will be supplied by either a 230V L-N

(400V L-L) or 115V L-N (200V L-L) nominal, 360-800 Hz nominal, three-phase, four wire, Y (wye) connected system. The neutral of the system is connected to the current return network and the current return network is considered to be the fourth wire. Phase rotation is in the order A, B, C. The current return network is also referred to as the airplane electrical power return and grounding protection path.

Variable frequency single-phase AC power is obtained by connection to any one line and the current return network.

This system includes multiple, engine driven power-generation channels. The output characteristics of these individual electric power channels will remain within the limits specified herein, but will not necessarily be identical.

Ground Handling Equipment: Ground Handling Equipment has a constant frequency and these tests are kept separate from the variable frequency AC tests.

Type I DC Power: Type I DC power will be supplied by a 28 volt (nominal), two-wire, Transformer Rectifier Unit (TRU) powered by the primary AC system, without battery backup. The negative terminal of the TRU is connected to the current return network and the current return network is considered to be the second wire.

Type II DC Power: Type II DC power normally will be supplied by the Type I DC power sources. A 24 volt (nominal) storage battery system will be an alternative backup source of Type II DC power.

Type III DC Power: Type III DC power will be supplied by a 24 volt (nominal) storage battery system with backup by a battery charger.

Type IV DC Power: Type IV DC power will normally be supplied by a 28 volt (nominal) converter regulator (Power Supply Assembly) powered by dedicated Permanent Magnet Generators (PMGs) on one or more engines. Backup sources of power for the converter regulator include: Type I DC power, the standby system main battery and the RAM air turbine generator.

Type IV DC power is provided exclusively for the Fly-By-Wire flight control system and dependent equipment.

Type V High Voltage DC Power: Type V High Voltage DC (HVDC) power will be a +/-270 volt (nominal) system supplied by a two-wire, Auto-Transformer Rectifier Unit (ATRU) system powered by a variable frequency 230V L-N (400V L-L) nominal primary AC system.

The voltage of the two output terminals of this system with respect to ground will be +270 and –270 volts respectively. All +/-270 volt equipment shall be connected between the +270 and –270 volt terminals.

Note: The Type V HVDC system nominal voltage has been initially defined at +/-270V. The nominal voltage may change by as much as +/-20V.

Type VI High Voltage DC Power: Type VI DC power will be a +/-130 volt (nominal) system supplied by a two-wire, Electric Brake Power Supply Unit (EBPSU) system powered by either the Type I DC or Type III DC power system.

62 Avionics Software

User Manual - Rev H California Instruments

The voltage of the two output terminals of this system with respect to the current return network will be +130 and -130 respectively. All +/-130 volt equipment shall be connected between the +130 and -130 volt terminals.

Type VI DC power is provided exclusively for the landing gear electric braking system.

4.3 –B787 Option Special Features

DC ripple tests for 28VDC EUT‟s are provided through a separate control screen. This is required to

extend the range of the ripple frequency to 5000 Hz. The actual requirement for 787 Rev C is testing up to 150 KHz ripple. This is out of the available range of the power source. To test to the full 150 KHz range, an external audio generator and coupling transformer as outlined in 787B3-0147, Figure 18 is required.

The B787 DC Ripple test screen is available from the main screen, Applications, Boeing, DC Ripple Test menu. Once selected, the DC ripple test control screen is modal and must be closed before any other tests can be run. Opening this screen requires several seconds as the power source is being set up to perform the DC ripple tests. This screen also places the power source in AC+DC mode. Note: This feature is not available on the Compact iX or Ls/Lx Series power sources.

Available test settings are phase/output selection. For single-phase systems, only phase A can be selected. The test pattern is fixed per section B.5.5.2 with a ripple frequency range from 16 Hz to 5000 Hz per Figure 7. The frequency slew rate is 30 minutes for each decade covered or one hour and 15 minutes total. Tests can be aborted sooner if needed.

4.4 Test Tables

The tables shown on the next few pages list the test sections covered by the –787 option. Where relevant, the numbering used matches that of the Boeing 787B3-0147 document. Test tables are listed by power group
