Training Quality Policy
With pleasure, I authenticate this hand-out and make it available for imparting Unit
training course on ILS (NM70XXB3) for ATSEPs at CATC/RTCs & their satellite centres in AAI.
The course content has been approved by CHQ of AAI. It is hoped that the trainee
ATSEPs will find it informative, interesting and better in presentation.
I am sure that the trainees will carry a sense of pride in undergoing this Unit Training
course of ICAO standard.
This handout on “ILS (NM70XXB3)” is specifically designed and developed to equip the
ATSEPs with requisite competencies required to carry out Operation and Maintenance of ILS
(NM70XXB3) system. It offers complete coverage of the unit in terms of knowledge and
practical exposure of the ILS (NM70XXB3) system including Transmitter, Monitor, FFM,
Antenna system, Power Supply system, Ancillary equipment, Remote Maintenance and
Monitoring system and the interconnectivity within the ILS (NM70XXB3) system. In addition,
it emphasises the importance and criticality of controlled environment in which CNS
installations operate.
For the development and presentation of this module as per ICAO Doc 10057, I would like
to appreciate the meticulous and excellent work done by the course developers.
This unit training course on the subject “ILS NM 70XXB3-UNIT TRAINING MODULE 5” deals with the
following topics:
The contents of each topic have been developed as per the expected level of accomplishment given in
DOC 10057. However, the exact contents in this module may not fully represent the original source or
documents, as the contents are customized for the internal training purpose of AAI by the course
developers those who have significant exposure in the industry.
All ATSEP should successfully complete this unit training course. Assessment at this stage will normally be
conducted using assessment tools such as ICA (Interim competency Assessment) , FCA (Final Competency
Assessment), Practical & viva.

anywhere in the off-course coverage
area
Following are the various Flight Inspection Checks carried on the Localizer
equipment (as per ICAO DOC 8071, please refer 1.5.1):
1. Identification Coding Checks
2. Mod-Balance and Mod-Depth Checks
3. Course width and Clearance Check
4. Course Structure, Course Alignment and Flyability Check
5. High angle clearance check
6. Alignment Monitor Alarm check
7. Width Monitor Alarm check
8. Coverage and Power Monitor Alarm Check
9. Polarization Check
10. Course width Symmetry Check.
Before the Flight Check starts, all necessary tools, instruments, equipment
and Data recording forms shall be present.
Purpose: To confirm that mod balance and mod depth are set properly. On centre
line of LLZ the DDM should be zero and Mod sum should be 40%.
For a two-frequency system this check must be done separately on the
course and clearance transmitter.
• Connect the PIR to the CSB course or Clearance front panel jack of the
cabinet as appropriate
• If the reading of the PIR is outside the requirement, adjust the DDM and/or
the SDM of the transmitter in the Flight check window
• Record the PIR readings
• In Flight Check window, click the "Toggle SBO off" button so that the
text reads, "COU SBO signal is off"
• Connect the PIR to the CSB course or Clearance front panel jack of the
cabinet as appropriate
• Adjust the DDM and/or the SDM of the transmitter in the Flight check
window accordingly to the information from the plane
• Record the information from the aircraft and the PIR readings
[Link]. Adjust Global Phasing (CSB/SBO phase), measured on ground or by
flight

c. Change in height of Antenna
d. Installation of a different type of Antenna
Purpose:
Inspecting the Course Position alarms to ensure that the monitor will
automatically turn off the localizer system when an out-of-tolerance condition
occurs.
Flight Check setup:
After the check has been carried out it has to be verified that the second
transmitter has the same test settings as the first transmitter.
a. Open Flight check window - Alarm limit check and activate CL test signal 1
or CL test signal 2 when asked for
b. If the shifted CL is not at the correct alarm point drag the slider for the
activated test point until the correct shift is achieved
c. Verify that the monitor alarm limit is adjusted so that the monitor is just
outside the limit when this shift is active. If necessary change the alarm
limit for CL / NF to achieve this.
Width wide Alarm Check: This check ensures that even during wide width
condition, clearance current does not reduce below the minimum. In this check
off- Course Clearance must not fall below 160 micro Amps in the Zone ± 10° &
135 micro Amps in the Zone +10° to + 35°.
The test is done on transmitter one only. Monitors are bypassed, i.e.
Manual/Auto switch set to Manual.
After the check has been carried out it has to be verified that the second
transmitter has the same test settings as the first transmitter.
The equipment is radiating in Wide Alarm condition (both Course and
Clearance) when wide alarm monitor limits are checked and Narrow Alarm
condition (Only Course, Clearance normal) when narrow alarm monitor limits are
checked.

above ground. This check is performed during commissioning or after major
maintenance of antenna.

Dummy load the SBO signal in the Coaxial Distribution Unit /Antenna
Changeover Unit. Feed CSB signal to antenna being checked (one antenna at a

at 10 NM from Runway threshold and is terminated at 1 NM before Outer

Ground Check
Flight Check
Purpose: To determine the Glide angle, sector width and adjust glide path
equipment, if necessary.
Flight Profile:
The calibration aircraft flies in-bound on extended centre line (level run) at
1500′ AGL from 10 NM to MM. the aircraft receives positional information from
the PDGPS positional reference system.
a. Angle:
Ground Check:
NM7000B Adjustment procedure:
• Turn on the transmitter to be checked
• The Monitors are bypassed, i.e. Manual/Auto set to Manual.
• Connect the PIR to the CSB course or Clearance front panel jack of the
cabinet as appropriate
If the angle is out of tolerance and DDM setting is correct, antenna height
will have to be adjusted, Minor adjustment of DDM can be made as advised by of
Flight Inspector. During the adjustment, put the FTS on CSB course socket. In case
the DDM is on 90 side the G/P angle is low and if DDM is on 150 side then G/P
angle is High. To increase the glide path angle, obtain a higher DDM predominant
on 150Hz and vice versa.
If Glide Path angle is out of tolerance, the angle is adjusted by changing the
heights of the antennas. Increasing antenna heights decrease glide angle and
vice versa
If a proper site survey has been carried out and the forward slope, sideway
slope of the terrain have been calculated using simulation software, the
parameter of greatest uncertainty is the height from the lower antenna to
the average reflection plane. In this case it is recommended to move all
three antennas the same amount until the correct angle is achieved.
Alt. 2:
If there are any uncertainties of the forward slope, sideway slope of the
terrain antenna 1 (lower) should be moved 1/3, antenna 2 (middle) 2/3
and antenna 3 (upper) 3/3.
The position monitor, both integral (MCU) and Near Field shall be checked
after a change in antenna height, and if necessary, re-aligned. The
monitor(s) shall be correlated to actual flight inspection readings.
An increase of the SBO level will narrow the course sector and vice versa.
