TCAS CONTROLS
This section describes the control units for the TCAS equipment.
Several types of control units are described. The TCAS functions can
be controlled by various control panels or discrete switches. Not all
the functions described are required in every installation.
TCAS I CONTROL PANEL; CP 66A

TCAS I Control Panel
Note: The controls vary depending on CP 66A/CP 66B configuration
installed. All functions are the same as typical of units shown.
Pushing the PWR push button cycles the TCAS ON or
OFF. At power down, the control panel senses
whether the TCAS is in SBY or On mode. Upon power-
up, the control returns the TCAS to the same condition.
Whenever TCAS is On, pressing SBY places the TCAS
in SBY (Standby) mode. In Standby mode, all TCAS
broadcast, surveillance, and tracking operations are
disabled and the traffic display is blanked except for a
“TCAS STBY” mode annunciation. If TCAS is in
Standby, pressing the SBY button places TCAS I in the
ON mode.
Pushing the TEST button initiates a comprehensive self
test lasting approximately eight seconds. Refer to the
Appendix for a description of the self test function.
