7-1. TEST PREPARATION.
No special procedures are required to prepare the television sensor assembly, the TADS visual
multiplexer assembly, the PNVS visual relay/multiplexer assembly or solid state camera assemblies (for
day TV, PNVS, or TADS FLIR) for test. Refer to the UUT test program for a list of cables, test equipment,
and test accessories required to test a UUT.
7-2. UUT DESCRIPTION.
The items of equipment that are tested by the same UUT test program are described below.
a. Television Sensor Assembly. The television (TV) sensor assembly (figure 7-1) is an LRU of the TADS
day sensor assembly. It is a small TV camera that creates TV images of target scenes and converts
them into electrical signals used for target acquisition and tracking. Major assemblies of the TV sensor
assembly are shown in the figure.
b. Visual Multiplexer Assembly. The visual multiplexer assembly (figure 7-1) is an LRU of the TADS
night sensor assembly. It is a small TV camera with a special right-angle lens. It converts an optical
image created by an LED array into a video image that is converted into a TV signal by other equipment.
Major assemblies of the visual multiplexer assembly are shown in the figure.
c. Visual Relay/Multiplexer Assembly. The visual relay/multiplexer assembly (figure 7-1) is an LRU of
the PNVS turret. It is identical to the TADS visual multiplexer assembly, except that the special lens is not
a right-angle lens. It serves the same purpose to the PNVS equipment as the visual multiplexer
assembly does to the TADS equipment.
