Sandel ST3400, Installation Manual

Page: 45 / 116

6 SETUP PROCEDURES
6.1 General
Setup procedures for the ST3400 are accessed and addressed through the
Maintenance Mode.
6.1.1 Accessing Maintenance Pages
The Maintenance Mode allows the operator to read and edit the factory settings
and the configuration data associated with a unit. The system will use this
information to configure its internal/external interfaces appropriately and save the
information to a configuration file.
The first maintenance page is the Maintenance Index., This page provides a list
of the subsequent pages. The maintenance index menu lists the number and title
for each maintenance page.
The maintenance pages operate in either “READ” or “EDIT” mode. Read mode
write-protects the configuration data. Pressing the [MODE] softkey in the
maintenance index will change the mode to “EDIT” which removes the write-
protection and allows changing any configuration item.
6.1.2 Uploading Data or System Software
The Windows based ST3400 TAWS Loader program is used to transfer terrain
data, airport data, , and configuration data to the TAWS equipment memory. The
Loader communicates with the ST3400 unit via the USB Port located in the lower
right corner of the front bezel.
The Loader runs on a personal computer with a USB port and Microsoft Windows
98, Windows Me, Windows 2000, or Windows XT software.
The applicable Windows Driver, Loader executable, and instructions are supplied
with the software or data. The Loader only operates
when in maintenance mode.
NOTE: As a convenience to identification System Software for units with MOD-
A is marked with an ‘A’ prefix. For example, software 3.05 loads into a non
MOD-A unit; software A3.05 loads into a MOD-A unit. The “A” prefix is not a
significant digit in the software part number or in the software certification, i.e.
A3.05 and 3.05 are considered identical for the purpose of conformity.
Incompatible software is automatically detected by the Loader and
will not load .
6.1.3 Configuration Module
The Configuration Module (CM) stores installation configurations. The physical
Configuration Module is directly mounted to the rear of the instrument.
Configuration module can be used when replacing an existing ST3400. Data
stored in the configuration module can be copied directly to the replacement unit.
