D. Wire Strapping Options
CAS-100 wire strapping options are implemented by externally connecting pins on the
CAS-100 unit connectors. The configurations of the straps are identified by the software in the
applicable unit. In most cases, the selected strap is connected to a common ground pin on the
related connector, but in some conditions can be connected to aircraft ground.

(1) TPA-100A TCAS Processor Straps
(a) Cable Delay Program Straps
These three straps, on RBP pins 7G, 7H, and 7J, are selectively connected to a
common on RBP pin 7K, to adjust for the differences in coaxial cable lengths
between the top and the bottom TCAS antennas (a maximum of 300 nanoseconds).
See Interwiring diagram Figure 2015 and paragraph 6.B. for strapping details.

See Interwiring diagram Figure 2015 and paragraph 6.B. for strapping details.
(b) Aircraft Altitude Limit Program Straps
Some aircraft can not get a 0.25 G vertical acceleration to a 1500 FPM climb rate
for an altitude increase of 750 feet above a specific altitude in all conditions. The
CAS logic is made aware of these conditions by the altitude limit straps until an
applicable resolution advisory, for example DON’T CLIMB can be issued. These
program pins are for selecting the CAN’T CLIMB altitude in 2000 foot increments
until 62,000 feet. The jumper wires from the pins RMP-6E through RMP-6J to
RMP-6K are necessary to program the necessary altitude. The limits set by the pins
show the worst case. The limits set by the pins must be used as a default when the
flight management computer shows that the climb must be limited. If no jumpers
are installed the altitude will be zero feet.
