IFF: Decoder OX5001

Target Corporation has designed and developed the latest generation Decoder Group for use with Mark X and Mark XII (SIF) Interrogator Systems. This decoder builds upon the best features of its predecessors by providing the most processing power yet available in a manual, all digital decoder, while keeping volume and power dissipation to a minimum. The OX-5001/UPX Decoder Group consists of the KY-5035/UPX Video Decoder, the ID-5087/UPX Intratarget Data Indicator and the MX-5182/UPX Radar Target Light Gun.

The Video Decoder provides selective identification by passive decoding of all codes on Modes 1, 2, 3/A, B and D with any interlace pattern on each of four separate channels. A unique symbol is settable for each of the four decode channels. Communication failure (7600 emergency), civil emergency (7700 emergency), military emergeney (4X emergency) and a user definable emergency (such as 7500 HIJACK) are automatically decoded and displayed on the PPI with special designations. An audible and visual alarm is also provided. In addition an optional remote alarm monitor may be used.

A Selected Altitude Layer (SAL) feature is provided to decode and filter aircraft replies in specific altitude layers (whose upper and lower limits are settable in 100 foot increments).

The Decoder also provides for PPI display of I/P decode, X pulse decode, all bracket display, raw video display and Mode C bracket display. Display size is automatically controlled by either the front panel Range Scale switch or the PPI range switch eliminating the need to reset internal adjustments when the PPI range is changed.

The Intratarget Data Indicator allows for active readout of a target selected by the Radar Target Light Gun on any two modes. Mode C replies are converted from hybrid-gray code. All Mode C replies below a settable transition altitude, are corrected for local barometric pressure which is operator programmable in inches of mercury. The corrected altitude is displayed on the digital readout and is also used in SAL determination.

Automatic Altitude Tracking is provided. A Mode C reply which correlates with a selected passive decode on channel 1, within ±300 ns is presented for display on the Data Indicator and is updated for every antenna rotation.

The Video Decoder contains a built-in, self-test generator. Sufficient inputs are provided to enable operation with virtually any beacon interrogator system which complies with the provisions of ICAO, Annex 10.

The Video Decoder contains spare card slots, spare connectors and provides the necessary output signals to allow for future expansion. Additional decoding channels can be added through an expansion feature.
