Block 9 Unit 1,2&3 Flashcards
What is the purpose of the ARC-210 radio
Air to air
air to ground
SATCOM
What is the frequency range of the ARC-210 radio
30 - 399.975 MHz
Channel spacing of ARC-210
25 kHz
A.m. guard frequency of ARC-210
121.5 MHz
FM guard frequency of ARC-210
243 MHz
This component of the ARC-210 is memory for presets and include SINCGARS Data
Receiver/transmitter
This component of the ARC-210 Is the
on and off control has operation Mode selector and frequency Mode selector
Remote control unit (RCU)
This component of the ARC-210 Is the Fill port and has antenna selection
Switch panel
 This component of the ARC-210 Converts digital data to control data for tuning and electronically tunes LOS antenna
Logic converter
 This component of the ARC-210 Has low power and high power
RF coaxial switches
This component of the ARC-210 has 100 watt RF power output and two internal modules the amplifier and power supply
High power amplifier
 This component of the ARC-210 Enables receive transmit to share common antenna lines
Low noise amplifier diplexer
This component of the ARC-210 Requires the logic converter to tune
LOS antenna
Upper element of the satcom antenna degrees above horizon
> 20°
Lower element of the SATCOM antenna degrees above horizon
< 30°
This is known as the precise time is transmitted by operator
Time of day TOD
This is the pattern or rate
Word of day WOD
How many VHF frequencies in WOD
Six
What are the preset channels for WOD
15 to 20
This determines which frequency radio begins its hopping
Net ID
This is when it receives 2 simultaneous transmission
Conference capability
What type of security is when the ARC-210 interfaces with KY-100
Crypto security
This is unaffected by anti-jam
Guard operation
Civilian guard frequency And military guard frequency
121.5 MHz and 243 MHz
This is channel is 22 to 25 and is keyed within 3 seconds of frequencies
Scan operation
What is the difference between the frequencies
Offset
How many channels are in maritime operation
57
This component of the control and display system is a direct connection to the RT
RCU
This component of the control and display system has communication with the RT via the 1553B Data Bus
CDU
This sends PTT signal to RT to initiate modulation and transmission
Interphone
This provides additional satcom modes allowing multiple users to share uplink and downlink frequency simultaneously
Demand assignment multiple access DAMA
This converts all intelligence into high data packets
DAMA
This is the capability to create networks between multiple aircrafts
Datalink systems
This part of the data link systems is for line of sight communication
Logic converter
This part of the data link systems is used for beyond line of sight
Satcom
These systems encrypt and decrypt communications to safeguard sensitive
Crypto graphic systems
This is a satellite base system providing location and a time reference for all systems
Global positioning system GPS
This is a transponder system designated to aid an air traffic controller
Selective identification feature SIF
This serves as a relay station or repeater for long distance
Satellite
This type of satellite has a reflector and the signal is weak
Passive
This type of satellite carries a transponder and has stronger signals at the receiving terminal
 Active
This is known as the terminal to satellite
Uplink
Frequency of uplink
290 to 320 MHz
Satellite to terminal
Downlink
