D. J7 Configuration Module Interface Connector

The AMCU ships with a dust cover over the configuration module port (J7). The dust
cover consists of a metal plate with two captive fasteners. If no configuration module is
required for the particular installation, then the dust cover will remain in place.

However, if a configuration module is required, then the dust cover is removed and
discarded and the configuration module is attached in its place on the AMCU using the
included captive fasteners. No tools are required to operate the fasteners.

3. Operational Description

This document includes a Functional Block Diagram (Figure 12) and a Detailed AMCU Block
Diagram (Figure 2001) which identifies most of the separate functional blocks and their
interconnections.

The remainder of this section describes the AMCU in terms of a simplified block diagram to
give the reader a high-level overview of the system components.

A. Functional Block Diagram

(1) The AMCU provides power management and distribution for the EMPOWER® In-Seat
Power Supply System (ISPSS), IFE equipment, seat actuators, and other seat
systems in defined cabin zones within an aircraft.

(2) Three-phase 115 VAC, 400 Hz aircraft power feeds the AMCU power input through
a single three-phase circuit breaker or through three individual single-phase circuit
breakers. The ampere rating of the head-end circuit breaker for the system depends
on the gauge of power feed wires to the AMCU and also on the maximum amount of
power to be consumed by the system. However, the rating of this circuit breaker
should not exceed 25 A per phase since the AMCU is limited to manage 8,625 VA
(115 VAC x 25 A/phase x 3 phases) of power for the distributed ISS connected to it.
In addition, the internal power path of the AMCU, which includes internal wiring,
circuit cards and interconnects, was designed for a maximum of
25 A continuous current per phase.

(3) The AMCU provides three-phase 115 VAC, 400 Hz power to downstream ISPSS
and other seat equipment on each of five individual column outputs.

(4) The AMCU also provides one data/control discrete output per column to perform
ISPSS mode control.

(5) The AMCU has seven microprocessors, the “A3 Host”, which acts as the system
master, a “Pwr Mon Slave”, which monitors AMCU input voltages and the power
supply, and one “Port Slave” for each of the five ports.

(6) Current consumption is monitored across all three phases of the five columns for
power management purposes.

(7) A “Master System Cut-Off” discrete control input turns AC power ON/OFF to the
column power outputs that supply the ISPSS and the other systems.

(8) Additional discrete inputs provide individual column power enable/disable and other
output parameter control.

Jul 30/21
 Astronics AES
Component Maintenance Manual
Part Number 1176-1

(9) Discrete “enable” keyline inputs and a single discrete “decompression” input control
column enable/disable (on/off).

(10) The J9 pin coded address provided by the aircraft cabling uniquely identify the
AMCU Ethernet port address.

(11) Input/output functions (for enable/disable control, DTMF functionality or status

indications) are assigned by a Configuration Module (CM) plugged into the AMCU.

(12) A unique CM is defined and configured either at the factory or by the AMCU
installation designer depending upon available aircraft system power and specific
customer desired features and control.

(13) The AMCU will operate without the CM, but will default to a configuration that
provides basic functions and limited control features.

(14) ISPS enable/disable command and power management control functions are
provided through a single “tri-level” control line from each of the five AMCU column
power output connectors. This “tri-level” control line controls the ISPS and other
equipment in the system and can limit the maximum number of ISPS power outlets
that can be operated at any given time.

(15) Each of the five-column output control lines operate independently and all are
referenced to the equipment chassis (or airframe).

(16) An Ethernet interface is used by the IFE Head end to implement column control and
to receive column and AMCU status information for power management.

(17) This data will include real-time current outputs of each column, GFI, and overcurrent
status, and other data as defined in the Ethernet ICD. AMCU BIT data is
communicated through this interface and may be used to locate problem LRUs on
the aircraft and reported to the aircraft Central Maintenance Computer (CMC)
through the IFE head end.

(18) Dual Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) signals are generated by the AMCU and
superimposed on the “tri-level” control line that is distributed to all seat mounted
equipment.

(19) These signal sequences can be initiated either from one of the configurable discrete
inputs or on command from the IFE head end.

ILLUSTRATED PARTS LIST

1. Introduction

A. General

(1) The Illustrated Parts List (IPL) contains the identification data for the assemblies,
subassemblies, and components.

(2) The IPL contains:

(a) An Introduction.

(b) An Equipment Designator Index that contains a reference to the Detailed Parts
List (DPL).

(c) A Numerical Index that contains an alphanumeric list of all components with a
reference to the Detailed Parts List.

(d) A Detailed Parts List that contains the part number and the properties of the
assemblies, subassemblies, and components.

(3) The Detailed Parts List contains:

(a) The figures that show the assemblies and subassemblies.

(b) Figure 1 shows the top-level assembly. The subsequent figures show the
subassemblies of the top-level assembly.

(c) The parts lists that identify the components and their properties for each
assembly and subassembly.

B. How to Use the Detailed Parts List

(1) The IPL Figures show the item numbers given to the assemblies, subassemblies,
and components.

(2) The parts lists show the figure-item number given to each assembly, subassembly,
and component. For example, 4-45, is figure-item number 45 of IPL Figure 4.

24-50-03 Page 10001

Jul 30/21
 Astronics AES
Component Maintenance Manual
Part Number 1176-1

(3) Each parts list contains:

(a) Figure Item column. The Fig-Item column contains the Figure number and the
Item number of each component. Item numbers are usually labeled in 5-unit
increments. The Detailed Parts List item number agrees with the item number
shown in the illustration. Item numbers with a dash (-) before them do not show
in the illustration.

1) When other IPL figures of the same assembly are necessary, a letter is
added to the figure number. For example, 1-1 and 1A-1.

2) When there are interchangeable or superseded parts, a letter is added to

the item number. For example, 1-5 and 1-5A.

(b) Part Number column. The Part Number column lists the manufacturer’s part
number or industry standard part number for purchased parts. The
Nomenclature column lists the manufacturer’s Vendor Code. For all other parts,
the Astronics part number appears in the Part Number column.

(c) Airline Part Number column. The Airline Part Number column is for airline use.

(d) Nomenclature column. The indentation level of an item shows the relationship
of the part to the Next Higher Assembly (NHA) as follows:

1) The . (period) symbol shows the level of the component in the assembly.

a) . shows that the item is a component of the assembly.

b) . . shows that the item is a component of a subassembly.

c) . . . shows that the item is a component of a sub-subassembly.

2) Attaching parts are captioned ATTACHING PARTS and are listed

immediately after the part(s) that they attach. The *** symbol follows the
last item of an ATTACHING PARTS group.

3) The Vendor Code identifies vendor-supplied parts. The letter V comes

before the vendor cage code.

Part Number 1176-1

4) Parts replacement information is part of the nomenclature column. Here is

a list of IPL nomenclature terms, abbreviations, and descriptions:

IPL Table 1: IPL Nomenclature Column Abbreviations and Descriptions

IPL Nomenclature Abbreviation Description

COMPLETE P/N If a part number needs to be modified or shortened in the part
number column, the COMPLETE P/N lists the entire part number
in the Nomenclature column.
DELETED Parts that have been removed from the IPL for some reason.
OPT P/N Alternate parts for the part currently listed in the IPL.
POST SB Parts that replace an existing part after the Service Bulletin (SB)
is implemented.
PRE SB Parts that represent the correct part number before a Service
Bulletin is implemented.
REPLACED BY (RPLD BY) A part is replaced by and fully interchangeable with the part
number listed.
REPLACES (RPLS) A part that is being used up and replaced by another part.
SUPERSEDED BY (SUPSD BY) Part is replaced by and is not interchangeable with the part
number listed.
SUPERSEDES (SUPSDS) Part replaces and is not interchangeable with the part number
listed.

(e) Effectivity Code column.

1) If the Effectivity Code column is blank for a part, you can use the part on all
assemblies in the IPL table.

2) If the Effectivity Code column contains a letter, you can only use this part on
the assembly with the same letter. For example, if an IPL has a circuit card
assembly that contains a CCA-1 with effectivity A and a CCA-2 with
effectivity B, you can only use a part with an A in the “Effect” column of the
IPL on CCA-1.

3) Effectivity letters start again with each parts list.

(f) Units Per Assembly column. The Units Per Assembly column shows the
quantity of the part in the assembly.

1) RF shows the part is included in the top assembly, an optional part (the
quantity for optional parts is listed with the first part, subsequent optional
parts are listed with the quantity RF), or is a part listed for reference only.

2) AR shows the part quantity is “as required.”

STORAGE

1. Storage of the Component

A. Prepare for Storage or Shipment

(1) Make sure that the 1176-1 Advanced Master Control Unit (AMCU) is clean before
packaging (see CLEANING). Make sure to include all hardware.

B. Package the AMCU for Storage or Shipment

(1) Use dust caps to prevent contamination and damage to connectors.

(2) Put the AMCU in an ESD bag and seal it to prevent exposure to dust, moisture, and
atmospheric conditions.

(3) Put the bag in an ATA-300 Category III container with sufficient padding to prevent
damage to the AMCU during storage or shipping.

(4) Seal the container with sufficient marking to make it easy to identify the contents.

C. Store the AMCU

CAUTION: DO NOT PUT HEAVY ITEMS ON TOP OF THE AMCU STORAGE

CONTAINER. HEAVY ITEMS CAN DAMAGE THE AMCU.

(1) Keep at temperatures between -54°C to 73°C (-65°F to 165°F).

D. Shelf Life

(1) The AMCU contains no adhesives, sealants, O-rings, rubber materials, fire
extinguisher squibs, or batteries. Shelf life requirements are not applicable.

NOTE: Shelf life is different than the life-limit value that includes installation and
operation.
