APOLLO MISSION SIMULATOR INSTRUCTOR HANDBOOK 1.3.2 SYSTEM DISPLAYS.

The following paragraphs describe SCM simulated spacecraft system controls and displays and their IOS repeater indicator counterparts. There is a one-to-one relationship between those system controls and displays used by the flight crew and the IOS system displays. Instructor data on system dis¬ plays in this handbook has been organized by SCM panels. Figures 1-24 through 1-57 and descriptive tables 1-22 through 1-52 are provided to define both SCM and IOS system controls and displays and the manner in which SCM data is manifested to the instructor-operator.

1.3.2.1 Main Display Panel.

The main display panel located in the SCM {figure 1-24) is a replica of the actual S/C main display console. In appearance, function, and operation, the controls and displays on this panel duplicate those of the spacecraft. These controls and displays provide inputs to the computer programs, which enable simulated operation of the S/C systems. The computer programs out¬ put signals to maintain proper indication of displays associated with system operation on the main display panel.

1.3.2.2 IQS System Displays.

The one-to-one relationship between SCM controls and displays and IOS system displays is provided, in most instances, through computer program control. SCM system control inputs to the program inform the computer to activate repeater indicators or instruments on the IOS for instructor monitoring. In some cases, there is a direct input to the IOS repeater indicators from the SCM switches that bypass the computer. However, the computer program always controls the positioning of the IOS repeater displays associated with SCM system operation.

A functional description of the controls and displays related to simulated systems operation is provided in the tables. The description is that of the SCM display panels which illustrate the relationship to IOS display panels and define instructor visibility at the IOS. Whenever a control or display is evident on a SCM panel and not on the related IOS panel, this is indicated by the control or display number being circled with reversed coloring. Wherever the control or display is located on the IOS panel and not on the related SCM panel, a square containing a reversed colored number is used. 1-40
