    MultLink Surveillance System Lynx NGT-9000s family (Release 1) See Figure 1-1. Available models of the Lynx NGT-9000s are detailed in Table 1-1. Included at the end of this section is a list of compatible equipment and equipment required but not supplied with the system.
  • Page 18: Functional Description

    Installation Manual FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The Lynx MultiLink Surveillance System (also referred to in this manual as the Lynx NGT-9000s) is a Mode S Level 2 dens Class 1 Transponder with an integrated GPS receiver providing Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) output using a 1090ES (Extended Squitter). The unit also receives ADS-B data via 1090ES and UAT (978 MHz Universal Access Transceiver).
  • Page 19: Ads-B System Overview

    See Figure 1-2 for an example of own aircraft traffic (UAT, 1090ES, TIS-B, and TAS). • The Lynx NGT-9000 is equipped with a dual-link receiver. ADS-R service is unnecessary to provide a complete picture of traffic in the area. 1.2.3 ADS-R System Overview The Automatic Dependent Surveillance –...
  • Page 20: Fis-B System Overview

    The Audio Mute switch is used to signal the unit to suppress all audio output. The discrete is set to GND/Open. The active position indicates Audio Muted. When grounded this input mutes all audio from the NGT-9000. This input is typically only used if the aircraft equipped with TAWS or other aircraft alerting systems.

    1.3.2 Detachable Configuration Module (DCM) The DCM part number 9230-17003-01 is part of the Lynx NGT-9000s and is used for the storage of configuration data. The DCM is permanently installed with the wire harness and interfaces to the unit via a 4 wire interface from the DCM.
  • Page 23: System Unlock Code

    Unlock codes are required if installing and activating the TAS and Diversity options. The unlock codes are 10 digit codes that are entered during installation using the Lynx MAT to install either of these options. The unlock codes may be purchased and shipped with the unit. If the unlock code is not included, contact L-3 Avionics Systems Customer Service to obtain the code.
