1. INTRODUCTION 

The Orbiter S-band frequency-modulated (FM) system console is 
one of several consoles comprising the Orbiter Test System (OTS). 
The OTS will be used by the Electronic Systems Test Laboratory 
(ESTL) to support performance and compatibility testing. The 
acceptance test of the FM system console will be performed in 
the Spacecraft Systems Test Laboratory. 

1.1 CONSOLE DESCRIPTION 

The console was designed in accordance with the design document 
for Space Shuttle Task 501, Orbiter S-band FM System, LEC-10929, 
JSC-11604, dated August 1977. 

Figure 1-1 is a sketch of the completed console. The principal 
panels and assemblies provide for mounting running-time indica- 
tors for t'le flight equipment, an indicator for monitoring the 
FM transmitter output power level and temperature, discrete sig- 
nal status monitors, isolation amplifiers, logic card file, power 
distribution box, signal patch connectors, and control switches. 
The control panel will be located externally from the S-band FM 
system console. 

The S-band FM system is used for transmitting recorded data, 
television data, main engine data, payload data, and encrypted 
data. Some data are digital while other data are analog. The 
console test provides procedures for verification of console 
wiring. 

1.2 SPACECRAFT ITEMS 

There are three spacecraft items in the S-band FM system console: 
the FM transmitter, the FM signal processor, and the radio 
frequency (RF) diplexer. Only two units are active, whereas 
the RF diplexer is passive and provides the capability to use 


1-1 







JSC-13872 


the same antennas for the S-band FM system and development flight 
instrumentation (DFI) transmitter. 

The FM transmitter has provision for only one signal input which 
is used to modulate the transmitted carrier. All processing and 
signal selection is provided by the FM signal processor. Some 
signals are conditioned by the signal source prior to being fed 
to the FM signal processor. 

1.3 EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION 

The major items of the console were identified in section 1.1. 
Figure 1-2 is a sketch showing the approximate internal config- 
uration of the console. The items, which include controls, 
ind'v'.ators or connectors that must be accessible during testing, 
arc described in detail in the following paragraphs. 

1.3. \ INDICATORS AND METERS 

The top two panels are shown in figures 1-1 and 1-2. The upper 
panel contains two elapsed time indicators, one for the S-band 
FM transmitter and the other for the FM signal processor. The 
lower panel contains a meter for measuring the temperature using 
a monitoring circuit. 

1.3.2 DISCRETE SIGl, vLS 

The third panel from the top of the console contains indicators 
for the functions selected and indicators for discrete functions 
from the flight equipment. 

1.3.3 ISOLATION AMPLIFIERS 

Below the discrete monitor function indicators is a panel con- 
taining buffer and isolation amplifiers. These amplifiers are 
also used to change signals from unbalanced to balanced or 
balanced to unbalanced signals. The signals provided or used by

the test equipment are usually balanced; the flight equipment 
requires balanced signals, 

1.3.4 PATCHING FACILITIES 

Patching facilities are located lower in the console. The 
patching facilities provide a means to channel the configuration 
easily and also to monitor signals to or from the S-band FM 
system console. 

1.3.5 CARD FILE 

The card file, located in the rear of the console, contains 
buffers and lamp drivers. Sec figure 1-2 for a detailed sketch 
of the console including the card file. 

1.3.6 GROUND CONTROL 

Below the patch panel is the ground control logic interface 
control panel which contains a single switch. This panel is 
shown in figures 1-1 and 1-2. 

1.3.7 CONTROL PANEL 

Figure 1-3 is a drawing of the control panel. The control panel 
is not located in the Orbiter S-band FM System console, hut instead 
it is mounted with other controls in a centralized location. 

1 . 4 TEST EQUIPMENT 

The purpose for the console test is to ensure that wiring is 
correct prior to installation of the flight equi]inient that could 
be damaged due to a wiring error. System performance with the 
flight equipment installed will be determined during the accep- 
tance test. For the console test, the test equipment reijuired 
includes :

2. TEST PROCEDURES 

The step-by-step procedures are contained in the appendix. Below 
are brief explanations of the test sequences to be performed. 

2.1 PRETEST REQUIREMENTS 

The purpose for this sequence is to ensure that all preliminary 
steps have been performed prior to starting the console test. 
Items that are incomplete, may in some cases, be noted and the 
procedure started if authorized by the Ta ^nical Monitor. 

2.2 TEST EQUIPMENT CALIBRATION 

The purpose for this step is to record the test equipment used 
and calibration date. 



2 . 3 POWE R WIRING VERIFICATION 

The puri se for this test is to check the powar circuit wiring 
for continuity and shorts prior to the application of power. 


2.4 VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTS 

The purpose for this test is to measure the voltages at the 
flight equipment connectors to verify the voltage and polarity. 
The Orbiter Power System console is used as the source of power. 


2.5 CONTROL CIRCUITS 

The purpose for the control circuit test sequence is to ensure 
that the controls provide the correct signals to the flight 
equipment . 



2.6 MONITOR CIRCUITS 

The purpose for this test is to verify that the digital logic 
circuits correctly operate and provide power to the indicator 


2-1 


C)

lamps. This test is performed by applying signals at the flight 
equipment connectors. 

2.7 SIGNAL DISTRIBUTION 

The purpose for this test is to verify the signal distribution 
wiring and buffer circuits in the digital logic assembly. These 
are functional tests and detailed performance testing is deferred 
until the acceptance tests. 

2 . 8 C OOLING AND TEMPERATURE 

In preparation for the acceptance test, the console cold plates 
will be connected to a source of cooling water; the flow of 
cooling water will be verified and the temperature indicator 
operation verified.

2.7 SIGNAL DISTRIBUTION 


1. Patch from VID DR-1 OUT to PROC TV IN. Insert 
a 500 kHz (app) signal at 5.0 ± .2 V peak-to- 
pea.k into VID DR-1 IN. Measure the output sig- 
nal at W10-P2, contacts A and D with a differ- 
ential oscilloscope. (10.0 ± 0.5 V P/P) 


2. Remove the patch from VID DR-1 OUT and patch 
from VID DR- 2 OUT to PROC TV IN. Insert a 

500 kHz (app) signal at 5.0 ± .2 V peak-to-peak 
into VID DR-2 IN. Measure the output signal at 
W10-P2, contacts A and D with a differential 
oscilloscope. (10.0 ± 0.5 V P/P) 

3. Remove the patch used in step 2. Patch from 

DYN AMP-1 OUT to PL ANLG IN. Insert a 500 kHz 
(app) signal at 5.0 ± 0.2 V peak-to-peak into 
DYN AMP-1 IN. Measure the output at W9-P2, 
contacts A and D with a differential oscillo- 
scope. (10.0 ± 0.5 V P/P) 

4. Remove the patch used in step 3. Patch from 

DYN AMP-2 OUT to PL ANLG IN. Insert a 500 kHz 
(app) signal at 5.0 ± 0.2 V peak-to-peak into
