+ | ===== Radio Navigation Instruments ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== VOR/ILS ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Navigation receivers usually can receive both VOR and ILS signals. Therefor we just call them NAV receivers. The receiver itself is a fairly short code snippet, but it requires some other objects to work. | ||
+ | |||
+ | First of all a radio frequency input is required, this is handled by the '' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Secondly a course selection has to be made, this happens with an '' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Lastly we can give the receiver these values and it will spit out a multitude of outputs. | ||

+ | ==== DME ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Distance measurement equipment - Transmits unique code to a nearby station which sends it back after a very short delay. The total time between the sending and reception of the message is measured and the distance retained with the known speed of light and calibrated delay at the station. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The device is therefor technically a transceiver, | ||

+ | ==== ATC-Transponder ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The transponder sends signals to air traffic control to identify the aircraft on the radar screens. A unique four digit code is given to each aircraft that is in the airspace of the controller. This is called the Squawk code or just transponder code. | ||
+ | |||
+ | To enter a code you can either set up control clickspots with the message '' | ||
