Tacan Use W/KNC660 066-01074-0002

The KTU 706 TACAN unit is used in conjunction with related distance and navigation indicators to provide distance, bearing, groundspeed and time-to-station information with respect to a selected TACAN or VORTAC ground station.

• Remote mounted 252 channel unit
• Solid state transmitter and large scale integrated circuit (LSI) technology
• 18-33 VDC power input
• All tuning done electronically with single crystal digital frequency synthesizer
• Channel selection is controlled by serial digital data stream fed from the KDI-572 or KDI-574 DME indicators
• Generates synthesized VOR composite output when a bearing signal has been acquired
• TACAN VOR composite signal may interface with converter-driven VOR instruments or area nav system such as the KNS-81 (-30/34)
• Incorporates self test mode used to verify range and bearing computation
• May be tuned by KFS-579A NAV/TACAN control or various RNAV receivers, nav control
