Title
COMPUTER DISPLAY CHANNEL (CDC) FOR THE NATIONAL AIRSPACE SYSTEM (NAS) (INCLUDES AMENDMENT 5)
Federal Aviation Administration
Publication Date:
Dec 8, 1967
Scope:
- This Specification establishes the requirements for the
design, development, construction, installation and performance testing of a
Computer Display Channel (CDC) subsystem for the FAA National Airspace System
(NAS). The CDC subsystem is intended to perform its functions within a system
environment which will be basically digital in nature from the data
acquisition device site to the display console. Primary and secondary radar
data will be transmitted from the radar site in digital message formats to a
Central Computer Complex (CCC) which is located in a traffic control facility.
The CDC will accept the processed digital message data from the CCC and
generate alphanumeric, symbolic, and map data properly positioned on bright
displays in control consoles to allow air traffic controllers to perform their
functions for safe and efficient air traffic control. The keyboards, data
entry devices, and control panels used in the display console are specified in
this CDC specification to permit the controller to enter messages into the CCC
and other interface equipments, and to select and control types of data to be
displayed for his use. (Ref. Figure 1).
The subsystem performance is detailed herein whereby the
functions of the CDC can be accomplished; however, it is incumbent on the
contractor to furnish any and all equipment modules to permit the performance
of the defined functions.
