TM 11-6660-266-13
j. Monitor flight data (para 4).
k. Terminate data collection from the sonde (para 1.10).
2-6-5. Transmit MET Messages. MET messages can be transmitted either during a sounding, or after the
sounding k completed with the MET data stored in the memory of the MARWIN Processor.
NOTE
The stored data will remain In memory until overwritten by the next
sounding.
The message k first sent from the MARWlN Processor to the DCT. The DCT can then be used to send the
messages one at a time to the subscriber(s) requiring MET information. This process is repeated until all
messages have been sent. Table 2-8 lists the status messages transmitted by the DCT to the MARWIN
Processor.
a. To transmit real time MET messages, proceed as follows:
(1) Transmit real time MET message from MARWIN Processor lAW TM 11-6660-280-10, Section 4, para 4.5.
(2) Transmit MET message from the DCT IAW TM 11-5895-1325-12 & P-8-1, para 2-4-2.
(3) Repeat steps (1) and (2) until all MET messages have been transmitted.
b. To transmit stored MET messages, proceed as follows:
(1) Transmit stored MET message from MARWIN Processor IAW TM 11-6660-280-10, Section 4, para 1.2.1.
(2) Transmit MET message from the DCT IAW TM 11-5895-1325-12 & P-8-1, para 2-4-2.
(3) Repeat steps (1) and (2) until all MET messages have been transmitted.
Table 2-8. DCT/MARWlN Processor Status Messages
Definition
Message
DCT STATUS: (2)
Status message (2) is generated by the DCT and transmitted to the
TRANSACTION COMPLETED
MARWIN Processor as an acknowledgement for the pending MET
message transaction, Indicating that the FATDS Destination Address has
received the message from the Source Address without Checksum or
uncorrectable Hamming error.
Status message (3) Is generated by the DCT and transmitted to the
DCT STATUS: (3)
MARWIN Processor as a negative acknowledge for the pending MET
SER/AUTH MISMATCH
message transaction, indicating that the SER/AUTH code received from
the FATDS Destination Address did not match that which was expected,
and that the expected value k contained in the reply.
