TPL-100A Processor / Part No. 940-0530-001

Use or disclosure of information on this page is subject to the restrictions in the proprietary notice of this document.

NOTE: Except for the above mentioned antenna location considerations, location of 

the system equipment is not critical, as long as the environment is compatible 
with the equipment design. The location of system components vary with 
different aircraft types.

Use care to avoid mounting the components near equipment that has high 
pulse current or high power outputs such as radar and satellite 
communications equipment. In general, the equipment must be installed in a 
location convenient for operation, inspection, and maintenance. The 
equipment must be in an area free from excessive vibration, heat, and noise 
generating sources.

(2) MILACAS-FR Processor Location

The MILACAS-FR Processor is installed in a convenient remote location that is free of 
excessive heat and vibration and which supplies reasonable access for inspection and 
maintenance. To achieve maximum performance, the MILACAS-FR Processor is 
installed adjacent to other receiver/transmitters or boxes with similar functions. Length 
of cables from the MILACAS-FR Processor mounting tray connector to other system 
units, except for the TCAS antennas, is not critical because TCAS unit interfaces are 
designed with high impedance inputs, low impedance outputs, and low noise 
susceptibility characteristics. If ARINC cooling is not supplied, a processor mounting 
tray with a blower assembly supplies the unit with forced-air cooling. There must be air 
space between and around the unit.

NOTE: Refer to interconnect diagram Figure 2002 for processor wiring 

particulars and interconnects.

(1) General

Figure 2002 is a detailed MILACAS-FR system interconnect diagram for the processor. 
Figure 2002 shows a detailed view of the MILACAS-FR rear connectors. Table 2002 
shows the MILACAS-FR Processor connector pins.

Cables must be fabricated in accordance with the interwiring diagrams in Figure 2002 
and Table 2002. The length of the wires to parallel pins must be approximately the 
same length to supply the best distribution of current. Honeywell recommends that all 
wires shown on the interwiring diagram, including spares, be included in the fabricated 
harness. However, if full wiring is not desired, the installer must make sure that the 
minimum wiring requirements for the features and functions are incorporated.

Wires for optional functions are shown on the interconnect diagram. The actual use of 
these wires depends upon the installation, customer requirements, and capability of 
the units installed.
