1. INTRODUCTION
The Data Recording and Playback Position (DRF) is one of the elements of the Tower and Approach
Integrated Control System.
The main duties of this position are the recording of all relevant data in a convenient order and their
subsequent recognition and playback.
The DRFs is a utility for recording and playbacking. The information of SDDs is saved on tapes.
The process is:
1. SDDs record all data in local files. The data are: Events, monitoring, etc. This data files are sent
to the DRFs each hour automatically.
2. When the DRFs receive the files from the SDDs, these ones are recorded on tapes.
3. The DRFs displays to technical staff all files received from the SDDs on a screen as well all files
save on tapes.
Also, the DRFs allow monitoring the tapes states, the recorder files, used capacity tapes.
To reproduce information stored in tape it would be enough with:
1st: To gather the necessary files stored in tape. This operation is carried out by means of an
intuitive graphic interface.
2nd: The DRF will take charge loading the above mentioned information in the SDD specified by
the technician for his later reproduction.

PLAYBACK
In the AIRCON 2100 System exist two clear ways to playback one SDD:
1st: PLAYBACK 24h:
This one play all data stored in one SDD.
This data stored is, only, the last 24 hours.
Allow playback more quickly because the recorded data are stored in the same SDD.
Only is possible playback in the same SDD that success occurs because the data are stored in
the same SDD.
2nd: PLAYBACK:
Allow this playback it is possible play all success or event stored in tape.
It is possible to specify a SDD to reproduce the events.
It is possible to reproduce the events stored of a SDD in another different SDD.
To reproduce in this mode is necessary load data from a tape. Obviously, this load process isnt a
real time process. It is necessary to wait the all requested data loading.
3.1
STORAGE
In accordance with the playback modes, the system offers two storage modes:
A Local storage performed in each disc on the SDD position.
A Central storage on the DRF position.
3.1.1
Local Storage
Each control position carries out its recording using its own local disc. These recordings concern received
data, local configurations (maps, etc.) and the most relevant actions achieved by the controller (for
example: Hand-over actions).
General system information: Messages received at control positions (radar targets, radar/ADS tracks sent
by the SDP, flight sent by the FDP, etc.). This information is recorded making use of compressed files
with one hour capacity.
Each SDD records during a maximum of 24 hours and when one hour file is complete, the system copy
this file in the DRFs and the oldest file is removed immediately.
All SDDs send every hour automatically the last generated files to the DRFs.
When the xx % (defined in a configurable file) capacity of local hard disk is exceeded, the supervisor
position is warned about it.

3.1.2
Central Storage
Central storage is performed on the DRFs position:
Recording files on disc. The information kept in these files is local information concerning every
single
control
position.
This
files
are
stored
in
local/<proj>/sdd/exec/grabacion/pregrabados folder waiting to transfer at tapes by
the DRFs.
The list of files pending to transfer to the tapes are stored in ASCII file named "pendientes"
existing in local/<proj>/sdd/exec/grabacion/pregrabados
Data transfer from disc to tape. The information received from SDDs will be saved on tapes by
DRFs. The DRFs between 5 and 10 minutes test if they are files on a
local/<proj>/sdd/exec/grabacion/pregrabados folder to transfer at tapes.
This Recording function is able to keep 9000 files capacity tapes (approximately depending on the SDDs
activities). This offers a convenient interval of time in case of tape unavailability.

SDD DESCRIPTION (PLAYBACK MODE)
This section describes the playback process on the SDD position.

The information can be recovered from the disc at the SDD position or from the DRF position itself. From
the playback operative point of view, there is no difference between both playback options (24 hours and
historic); the only difference is the way of planning. The 24 hours playback is activated from the SDD
position that is going to be replicated, however, the historic playback demands the previous selection of
the information that is going to be playbacked from the DRF (as described in section 4.).
When the synchronized reproduction between SDD recording and Voice recording is desired, the SDD
rewind forward until the voice recording beginning point, and then the synchronized playback begins from
this point in normal play mode.
5.1 STARTING UP THE PLAYBACK POSITION
Before starting the playback process, the corresponding SDD must be halted from the Supervision
Position (CMD). Once it is not available (OFF in system mode), the controller starts up the playback
function by introducing the Username and Password. The Username for the 24 hours playback is saved
in DBM application.
5.2 WINDOWS DESCRIPTION
A SDD working in playback mode looks very similar to another SDD working in operative mode.
The main difference is the existence of two new windows with their corresponding bi-state icons located
on the Main Menu Window: [PLAYB CTR] y [PLAYB DAT].
Two new windows are displayed when pressing on these new bi-state icons:
SDD Playback Control Window [PLAYB CTR]
Playback Status Window [PLAYB DAT]
5.3 SDD PLAYBACK CONTROL WINDOW

This window allows the control of the playback function and appears and disappears by pressing on the
[PLAYB CTR] bi-state icon on the Main Menu Window.

6.2.1
The DRF Diagnoses Tape Not Working:
It is necessary to use cleaning tapes for each Unit Tape following a periodic procedure. In other case, the
tapes can corrupt stored data.
In the case when the message "TAPE NOT WORKING" appears in DRF and CMD, after each writting
attempt, it is recommended to do the following steps:
1. Shutdown DRF application which is involved in diagnose

2. Execute the following commands in the corresponding machine:
#rm -r /local/<proj>/sdd/exec/tar1.tmp
#rm -r /local/<proj>/sdd/exec/tar2.tmp
#rm -r /local/<proj>/sdd/exec/grabacion/de_cinta
#rm -r /local/<proj>/sdd/exec/grabacion/directorios1
#rm -r /local/<proj>/sdd/exec/grabacion/directorios2
#rm -r /local/<proj>/sdd/exec/grabacion/pregrabados/*
3. Clean Unit tape and format the tape,

4. Both tapes will appear in REPRODUCTION status. Change the operative status of one of them
5. if it does not fix the problem, then replace the tape.
It is strongly recommended to change tapes periodically (1 month aprox.)
6.2.2
The DRFs Software is Shutdown, Inoperative or LAN Disconnected:
For each SDD is necessary to do the next steps:

st
1 : The SDD software operative

nd
2 : The DRFs software down (software off)

WARNINGS:
It is very important that the technician see the free space in tapes to recovery data.
Of course, this procedure assures tape data continuity while DRFs is start-up in 24 hours duration.
It is necessary that they dont change the tapes or load empty tapes for assure continuity and saved
datas.
This process is very slow and need that the DRFs take a several minutes to verify all files and SDD
positions. Is very recommended that dont operate with the DRFs until the process are finished.
The DRFs, when start-up, automatically restore all files pending of the SDDs
