MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON 1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND REQUIREMENTS 1.1 Introduction This technical manual contains information required to operate and maintain the Model 2130 Marker Beacon Equipment.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON When used for en route applications, the Marker Beacon is configured as a fan marker. It can be used with other Navigational Aid equipment and its use depends upon instrument flight procedural applications. For ILS operation, an outer marker is typically located 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold; this location normally coincides with the point on the ILS approach at which the glide slope altitude equals the intercept altitude.

MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON 2. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION 2.1 Introduction The Marker Beacon is comprised of a Local Control Unit, RMS Processor, one Amplifier/ Monitor Assembly for single equipment or two Amplifier/Monitor Assemblies for dual equipment. In addition the power panel assembly contains the Battery Charging Power Supply (BCPS) with one power supply for single equipment and two power supplies for dual equipment. The Marker Beacon is provided with battery backup capability through the BCPS function.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON 2.3.1.1 Marker Beacon Amplifier/ Monitor Block Diagram Theory Refer to Figure 2-1. The Amplifier/Monitor includes a frequency synthesizer that can be programmed to 75 MHz. In addition the frequency can be set to 4 kHz higher or 4 kHz lower than 75 MHz. The synthesizer channel is set from the PMDT interface. The output of the synthesizer is amplified in two stages to obtain 2.5 Watts. A low pass filter in the output rejects harmonics and high frequency spurious signals.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON Rev. A April, 2005 2-3 This document contains proprietary information and such information may not be disclosed to others for any purposes without written permission from SELEX Sistemi Integrati Inc.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON 2.3.1.2 Marker Beacon Amplifier/ Monitor Detailed Circuit Theory 2.3.1.2.1 Power Supply Refer to Figure 11-12 Sheet 2. The power for the Amplifier/Monitor enters on J3 pins 21, 22, and 23. The 12 volts is converted to 5 VDC by DC-DC Converter PS1. The output of PS1 enters U19, a linear voltage converter that drops the voltage to 3.3 VDC and is labeled DVCC for use as the digital supply voltage.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON The RF output of Q2 enters the gate of Q3 where it is amplified approximately 13 dB. The modulation enters from R50, L14, L15 and L16. The gate bias voltage enters through R57. The gate voltage is set by potentiometer R56 and R58.Resistors R50 and R51 are used to set measure the current to Q2 and Q3 in order to set the bias voltage with R54 and R56. The output of Q3 enters the low pass filter formed by L17, C109, L19, C111, L20, C113, L21, and C114.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON Refer to Figure 2-2. The Remote Monitoring System (RMS) CCA distributes power, performs communications, provides system interconnections via nine serial ports plus a parallel port, and facilitates monitoring/control in a single or dual Marker Beacon system. The RMS CCA receives battery-backed DC power from the BCPS CCA at DB37 connector J1 and directly routes it to Marker Beacon1 and Maker Beacon2 on DB25 connectors J3 and J4.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON +3.3V, +5V, +/- 15V, +/- 12VA, +/-12VD Supplies Voltage Supervisor / Reset Oscillator Microcontroller with Watchdog, DMA, and Serial Port.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON All address and data lines are buffered through drivers U57, U58, U59, U60, and U61 before connecting to any memorymapped device except those to the U4 SDRAM, which are directly connected to U8. The drivers reduce the address and data line capacitance seen by the U8 microcontroller so that the U4 SDRAM may operate at very high speeds.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON Quad UART U25 provides four serial ports of the RMS CCA; the local PMDT, the Marker Beacon1, the Marker Beacon2, and the FFM1 ports. The local PMDT has two possible connection means; either through USB connector J7 or RS232 header JP4. PMDT local select header JP5 must be strapped properly for either of them to operate. If the RS232 option is selected (normally only at the factory), U36 performs the RS232-TTL level conversions.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON U33 and U16 comprise a 32 to 1 channel analog multiplexor controlled by latch U54 and inverter U17:D. All power supplies with potentials greater than ±12V are scaled down by resistor networks RN12 and RN13 before presentation to U33. Voltage reference U30 serves both as a reference check for the U31 A-D converter as well as the base reference for D-A converter U56. Buffer amplifier U29 presents the selected analog channel to A-D converter U31.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON 2.3.3 Local Control Unit (1A1) Simplified Theory of Operation Refer to Figure 2-3. The Local Control Unit (LCU) controls the normal operation of the Marker Beacon. All operational functions are performed by the LCU and are controlled by either front panel keyboard when in the local mode or by the Remote Maintenance Subsystem (RMS) through the parallel interface.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON 2.3.3.1.3 Key Switch Registers Front panel switches are de-bounced and held in the Key Switch Registers pending processing by the LCU transfer state machines. Commands received from the RMS via the parallel interface also control the contents of the Key Switch Registers. The registers will hold the last command received until the LCU transfer state machine processes the command. 2.3.3.1.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON 2.3.3.1.6 Positive Alarm Register This register receives the positive (high True) alarms from the two potential monitors within a system. Depending on the configuration of the alarm voting and bypass logic, the Alarm Register will report an alarm to the transfer state machines if reported by the enabled monitors. 2.3.3.1.7 Negative Alarm Register This register receives the negative (low True) alarms from the two potential monitors within a system.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON Each of the two +12 VDC sources used to power the board are monitored by comparator U10. The two comparator circuits are identical, so the following discussion will explain the monitoring of the 1_+12 VDC supply. The +12 VDC supply voltage is reduced to approximately +2.7 VDC by a voltage divider network consisting of R33 and R37. This voltage is connected to the positive input of comparator U10A. The +3.3 VDC VCC supply is reduced to 2.

Each alarm signal is sent as two signals, one active high and the other active low. In the LCU, resistors are used to pull each of their signals to their active (alarm) state.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON The alarm signals from the monitors have already been given the appropriate transfer delay times within the monitors. This results in an immediate transfer when the combinatorial requirements of the alarm signals are met. When a transfer condition occurs, the present transmitter that is connected to the antenna system is taken off the air. The other transmitter is connected to the antenna system, and turned on (if it is not already on).
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON 2.3.4 Power Panel Assembly Theory of Operation 2.3.4.1Power Supply Theory of Operation 2.3.4.2 Battery Charging Power Supply (BCPS) Block Diagram Theory Refer to Figure 2-5. The Battery Charge Power Supply (BCPS) CCA distributes power, performs battery charging, and facilitates power monitoring in a single or dual Far Field Monitor (FFM) or Marker Beacon system.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON 2.3.4.3 Marker Beacon BCPS CCA Detailed Circuit Theory Refer to Figure 11-13. AC line, neutral, and earth enter via TB1-1, 2, and 3. The AC line is fused by F5 and routed to the external AC outlet on TB1-4. The AC neutral for the outlet is routed directly to TB1-5. AC earth for the outlet and both external power supplies PS1 and PS2 are connected directly to TB1-6, 10, and 13.
MODEL 2130 MARKER BEACON U5:D. As long as the +15VIN1 level is above the trip point set by the voltage divider and the +3.3VREF from regulator U4, the OR’d output of U5:B, U5:C, and U5:D will be pulled high through R83. This high output will simultaneously keep On_Batt1 indicator CR29 off and transistor Q13 on. Transistor Q13 being on pulls the output of comparator U5:A low through diode CR80, which in turn keeps battery switch transistors Q12, Q10:A, and Q10:B off.
