  3. ERAM hardware for the R-Position includes a flat panel screen, which is the main visual interface with the system. Two types of monitors are available for use in the facilities: Square Monitor - conventional size monitor that fits within the console. The square monitors used are the legacy BARCO monitor or the Esterline 2K X 2K Monitor. 2. EIZO 43” Ultra High Definition (UHD) Monitor - high definition wide screen monitor. NOTE: On the EIZO UHD Monitor, in order to mitigate off-angle washout issues, some yellow color values have been slightly altered from the legacy values. 1.3.1.1 R-Position Test Patterns. Reserved. 1.3.1.2 POSCON ERAM Monitor Emulation. Both the Square Monitor (2K X 2K) and 43" UHD Monitor described above provide similar Situation Display real-estate, the difference is that the 43" UHD Monitor provides screen space for additional functionality outside of the active workspace (see Section 1.4.1). In an attempt to simulate the real-world hardware, while also acknowledging that every user's monitor is a difference size, POSCON hardcoded the Situation Display to a width of 3072 pixels with no height limitation.
  4. In the following section we will describe what hardware the real-world controllers actually use to interact with and mange information. While users of POSCON's ERAM software will undoubtedly have different hardware setups, POSCON has tried to simulate the real-world hardware as closely as possible (e.g. reassigning keyboard keys, simulating the real-world monitor resolution, etc.). In some cases, this may be burdensome for the user. Our recommendation is to buy hardware that closely mimics the real-world (e.g. mechanical keyboard, three-button trackball, etc.). The controller utilizes using the following hardware on the R-position: Monitor Trackball Device Keyboard Keypad Selection Device (KSD)
  5. The figure below shows the R-Position trackball used to select items from displays and menus to initiate actions. The R-Position Trackball device contains the following buttons and controls: Trackball Pick (TBP) Button / left mouse click Trackball Enter (TBE) Button / middle mouse click Trackball Home (TBH) Button / right mouse click Trackball When the TBP button is pressed, depending on where the controller places it, the trackball cursor can: Select an object and echo feedback in the Preview area. Execute an immediate action but feedback does not echo in the Preview area. Select points and objects without entering a message. Decrement settings on the display. When the TBE button is pressed, depending on where the controller places it, the trackball cursor can: Select an object. Echo feedback in the Preview area and close the message with the contents entered into the system. Remove intermediate feedback associated with the message under composition. Equate the functions of a TBP followed by pressing the keyboard ENTER key to execute an immediate action (feedback is not echoed in the Preview area nor entered into the system). Increment settings on the display. When the controller presses the TBH button, it can: Moves the trackball cursor in the Vector pick area. If held down, move the trackball cursor to a trackball cursor location with each successive TBE in the following sequence: Range pick area Adapted trackball Home position Velocity Vector pick area The Trackball device moves the trackball cursor on the R-Position display. The trackball wraps on the display screen in both horizontal and vertical planes. Trackball travel speed and font size are specified by the controller.
  6. ERAM provides a predeparture FP amendment capability to accept reroutes for proposed FPs and to accept deletion of the protected segment for a proposed or active FP. This aids in reducing departure delays in that a Traffic Management Coordinator (TMC) from the Traffic Management Unit (TMU) in a local ERAM ARTCC can enter Traffic Flow Management (TFM) reroutes into the TFM System for predeparture flights to follow a new traffic flow. These reroutes get forwarded to ERAM and a confirmation of whether the ERAM reroute was implemented is returned to TFM. For example, in the figure below, Predeparture Reroute of a Flight, depicts large storm areas in the southwest which are expected to affect flights headed to the southeast. The TMC can enter reroutes for predeparture west-to-east transcontinental flights around the storm areas into their TFM System, which will get sent directly to ERAM. The TFM reroute contains a Protected Area where a TMC may elect to override the automated preferential route application in ERAM. The protected portion of the TFM reroute is indicated when the route is displayed or when strips are printed. When a flight is activated, if there is an existing protected reroute area, the protection stays in effect. Route changes and the Protected Area on a route may coincide, but generally do not. Routes used for TFM reroutes are selected from pre-coordinated routes, like Playbook routes or Coded Departure Routes. These route changes are often complete route replacements or nearly so. The Protected Area of the route is the flight segment that is required by the TFM situation and is determined on a case by case basis by a TFM specialist.
  7. ERAM tracks every radar target and attempts to pair each radar track with an active FP. If there is a mismatch between the squawked code and the established or assigned code of a target, the DB will “unpair” from the target and go into coast status (Figure 1–13, Radar Tracking and Pairing). The controller can “re-pair” the DB with the target using the “D” delimiter with the QT command. The “D” delimiter overrides all system pairing when it is entered. There are situations in which radar target returns are supported by beacon data, but are not eligible to be automatically converted into a track. Without the track, the corresponding flight cannot be paired. Tracking and pairing capabilities allow the controller to manually start a track via the QT command. This action “jump-starts” the track and pairs it to the flight.
  8. ERAM utilizes several types of adaptable radar sites to provide radar coverage. An example is shown in the figure below. The assignment of supplemental radars to airspace is flexible in ERAM because it has the capability to adapt several additional altitude tiers and a number of radars in each tier. This flexibility reduces the likelihood a radar target will be missed due to radar outages or incomplete radar coverage. Reduced separation areas are supported by this ability to define airspace volumes. In ERAM, tracks are updated when the radar data is received. Due to the number of radar returns available for any aircraft, when the preferred radar misses a scan, targets can be updated using information from a lower priority radar.
  9. ERAM utilizes AOI flight data to display CAs between two paired aircraft being worked by different Air Route Traffic Control Centers (ARTCC). See the figure below, Mode C Intruder Alerts, shows an example. All CAs are eligible for operational error detection.
  10. ERAM provides adaptable definitions of sections of airspace called Aircraft Alert Volumes (AAV) shown in the figure below. Each AAV airspace can be adapted to have different CA values. This flexibility improves the accuracy of CAs and reflects the correct separation criteria; for example, 3 NM vs. 5 NM. This reduces nuisance alerts in reduced separation airspace volumes.
  11. Separate safety alert parameters can be adapted for Visual Flight Rule (VFR) conflicts. For example, the parameter could be set to provide only CAs if the aircraft will be closer than 2 miles. The figure below, VFR Conflict Processing, shows an example of a CA recognizing the VFR separation criteria.

  18. Arrival Clearence. When transfered to Amsterdam ACC(Amsterdam Radar), initial contact is restricted to AMSTERDAM RADAR + Callsign. At, or before, entering the Amsterdam Control Area, an arrival clearence will be issued containing: Standard Arrival Route or direct route Expected landing runway Level instructions Any other necessary instructions or information
  19. CPDLC Logon. EHAA Initial Climb. 3000ft. When Amsterdam Airport Schiphol has 36R in use and Rotterdam The Hague Airport has 06 in use, the Initial Climb is 2000ft. RTF. Rotterdam has non-standard departure RTF procedures. Start-up is requested before IFR clearence. Note that in the IFR clearence the runway isn't given as standard. It will only be given in case of a runway change between start-up and IFR clearence. Below is an example: Plane: Rotterdam Delivery, TRA123, stand D2, information A, IFR to Paris Orly, request start-up ATC: TRA123, Information A is correct, start-up approved, expect runway 24, QNH1013 Plane: Startup approved, runway 24, QNH1013, TRA123 ATC: TRA123, readback correct, report ready to copy clearence Plane: Wilco, TRA123 Plane: TRA123, ready to copy clearence ATC: TRA123, Cleared Paris Orly, WOODY2B departure, initial climb 3000ft, squawk 0140 Plane: Cleared Paris Orly, WOODY2B departure, initial climb 3000ft, squawk 0140, TRA123 ATC: TRA123, readback correct, for taxi contact Rotterdam Tower on 118.205 Plane: Tower on 118.205, TRA123
