This board was constructed in an ESD (electro–static discharge) protected environment. This is because most of the semiconductor devices used in this board are susceptible to damage by static discharge. Depending on the magnitude of the charge, device substrates can be punctured or destroyed by contact or mere proximity of a static charge. The results can cause degradation of device perfor- mance, early failure, or immediate destruction. These charges are generated in numerous ways such as simple contact, separation of materials, and normal motions of persons working with static sensitive devices. When handling or servicing equipment containing static sensitive devices, adequate precautions must be taken to prevent device damage or destruction. Only those who are thoroughly familiar with industry accepted techniques for handling static sen- sitive devices should attempt to service circuitry with these devices. In all instances, measures must be taken to prevent static charge build–up on work surfaces and persons handling the devices.

General The Aids to Navigation (AtoN) is an Automatic Identification System (AIS) transmitter that is fully compliant to the technical specifications defined by the IMO and outlined in ITU.R.M 1371-1 . The transmitter is designed to be installed in weather and navi- gation buoys with no periodic maintenance required. The transmitter employs the latest radio frequency and FATDMA technology to provide a high performance, auto- mated, and reliable identification system. The transmitter is afully automated sys- tem, which ties into the buoy’s navigational and/or weather monitoring instrumenta- tion to provide automatic transmission of navigational and meteorological data (de- pendent on the installation). The Transponder is a fully automated system. This means that once it is installed and turned on, no maintenance is required to keep it operational. The L--3 ProTec Inland Waterways/Class A Automatic Identification System transponder is manufactured in Sarasota, Florida, United States of America, pursu- ant to ISO 9000. 1.1.1. SystemOverview The AtoN is an Aids to Navigation System fully compliant with the IMO specifications defined in IMO MSC.74(69) Annex 3, IEC 62320--2-2 , and ITU.R M.1371-3.Withthe addition of the FATDMA controllers, the AtoN provides a cost-effective AIS solution, which will meet theneeds of any waterway required to transmit AtoN data. The com- pact, single-box design allows the AtoN to be easily incorporated into any buoy lay- out thus simplifying installation and cabling requirements. The AtoN has been designed as maintenance-free unit, which makes extensive use of surface mount technology (SMT). The repair of printed wiring assemblies (PWAs) containing SMT components requires specialized factory equipment, training, and techniques, therefore, such PWAs are not field-repairable. As a result, maintenance philosophy for the AtoN is replacement of failed assemb- lies. In the case of the AtoN, the entire unit should be sent back to the factory, in the unlikely case of a failure. Attempts by anyone but an authorized L--3 representative to repair the AtoNwill void the warranty.

Other types, such as Type 2: (transmit and limited Receive capability) could possibly be added to production futuristically. 2. APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS IEC 62320-2 CDV IEC 61993-2 Maritime navigation and radio communication equipment and systems ITU 1371-1 AtoN Factory Setup (See appendix B) Watts- to- dBm conversion table (See appendix C) 3. TEST REQUIREMENTS 3.1 General Test Requirements 3.1.1 Upon approval this procedure will become a released document and will be under Engineering Document Center (EDC) control. 3.1.2 If errors or omissions are found which require changes to this test procedure, the current procedure shall be red-lined, dated, and signed by the cognizant Test Engineer and Quality Assurance (QA) Representative. The Test Engineer shall write an ECO in accordance with QAP 5.4 and, within 10 days, submit the ECO for incorporation. This red-lined test procedure shall be valid for only 10 days without an ECO submittal by the Test Engineer. If an ECO has been submitted by the Test Engineer, then the red-lined test procedure shall be valid until the ECO has been incorporated. 3.1.3 Before any data is recorded, the test technician is to verify he/she has the latest revision level of procedure and data record. The technician is also required to complete the first sheet of the data record except completion date. If the system under test consists of more than one unit, list all P/Ns and S/Ns on the Data Record. The data record, when completed will be stored per Operations Directory Policy 3.6 retention period for Test Records or as required per contract. All entries are to be made in INK and must be legible. 3.1.4 If more than one technician is involved in completing the procedure, the following steps will be followed: a. All technicians involved in testing the Unit Under Test ("UUT") will stamp the first sheet of the data record next to the line "TESTED BY". b. At the test step where the technician begins testing he/she will stamp the data record. The stamp is to be placed at the far right side of the page, next to the test results. Document Number: 905-M0945-06 Revision: C Page 4 of 42 3.1.5 If the results of a test are out-of-limits, the technician will write the results on the data record and circle the entry. After the out-of-limits condition has been corrected, the technician will make a single strike through the out-of-limits readings, write the new result to the side, and stamp the entry. DO NOT erase the original reading or use "white out" under any circumstances. 3.1.6 When an out-of-limits condition cannot be corrected through normal methods, the technician is instructed to notify his/her supervisor. The problem will be turned over to Test Engineering or Design Engineering for resolution. If management decides to ship the unit with the defect, a Management Review and Disposition form must be completed. 3.1.7 If an error is made while entering data onto the data record, the correction will be made in the following manner: Make a single strike through the entry such that it is still readable. Write the correction at a convenient location and initial or stamp the correction. Notify the QA Representative and she or he will also initial or stamp the correction. DO NOT erase the mistake or use "white out" under any circumstances. 3.1.8 Upon successful completion of testing, review the test data sheets for any out of spec. entries and missing entries. (N/A shall be entered where there is no applicability.) Paragraphs that are applicable, but for which there is no data to be recorded, shall have the word "none" or a dash entered in the space. 3.1.9 Test results which are to be recorded on the data record shall be indicated in the test procedure by the word "RECORD" actual data or "CHECK" meaning PASS or FAIL. 3.1.10 DANGER, CAUTION and NOTE shall be used to highlight important information as follows: DANGER-UPPER CASE BOLD LETTERING SHALL BE USED TO HIGHLIGHT PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES, WHICH IF NOT FOLLOWED, COULD RESULT IN INJURY TO PERSONNEL. CAUTION-UPPER CASE BOLD LETTERING SHALL BE USED TO HIGHLIGHT PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES, WHICH IF NOT FOLLOWED, COULD RESULT IN EQUIPMENT DAMAGE. NOTE: May be used to reference special instructions.
