a, Headquarters Building - administrative center for spaceport operations,
I?. Central Instrumentation Facility (CIF) - nucleus of the Center’s instrumentation
and data operations _ Instrumentation is provided to receive, monitor, process, display,
and record signals and information received from space vehicles during prelaunch, launch,and flight activities.
c. Other support facilities, such as medical, security, communications, storage,
supply, fire fighting, water, power, maintenance, and like functions.
The Spacecraft Operations Area is discussed in Volume IV of this document,
2.1.1 KSC INDUSTRIAL AREA FACILITY TITLES The facilities located in the KSC
Industrial Area are specified in Table 2-1. The location of these facilities is shown in
Figure Z-1.

industrial feeder, is stepped down to 277/480 v to operate air-conditioning equipment,
and the motor generator sets that supply the test panels throughout the building with 28
vdc and 120 vat, 400 cycles. The instrumentation feeder is stepped down and distri-buted at 12 O/z 08 v .
High-gain parabolic antennas are located near the CIF Antenna Field Building and signalsreceived are relayed to the CIF through the C4F Ani,nna Field Buiiding. Flight tel?vi-
sion signals are recorded and processed at the CIF Antenna Field Building, When i.heambient RF noise level in the Industrial Area can be tolerated, antennas on top of tne CIF
are used to acquire RF signals transmitted from the space vehicle.
2.6 KSC HEADQUARTERS BUILDING tM6-3991
2.6.1 FUNCTION. The KSC Headquarters Building (Figure 2-7) is the administra-tive center for spaceport operations s The Director of KSC maintains dffices an the top

3 -3.3.2 Cleaning and Testing Laboratory. The Cleaning and Testing Laboratory is
utilized for repair, cleaning, and pressure testing of fluid systems hardware. Two Class
100 (Fed. Std. 209) LIean rooms, comprising 1,700 square feet are supported by a com-
ponent disassembly and repair shop, a preliminarv cleaning area, verification laboratories,office space, and storage. 111 ddition to 5,500 square feet of enclosed area and 2,400
square feet of shed-type area that are util ized for these functions =
3.4 PROPELLANT TRANSPORTER CLEANING FACILITY
3.4 .l FUNCTION. The Propellant Transporter Cleaning Facility is used for inside
purging and cleaning of the propellant trailer/transporter tanks and for removal, repait ,
and replacement of propellant piping and piping equipment.
3 .4.2 LOCATION. The site has not been determined.
3.4.3 DESCRIPTION. The-Propellant Transporter Cleaning Facility is constructed of
concrete block with open-web steel joist bridging and a built-up roof. The total area withinthe building is 4,800 square feet with a clear height, floor to bottom of ceiling joists, of
16 feet. There are four trailer/transporter bays, each equipped with lo-foot by 14-foot
exterior doors. The cleaning facility contains 400 square feet of office space, 600 square
feet of storage and utilities space, and 3,800 square feet of work space.

SECTION IVAIRF~RC~EAST~RNTESTRANCESYST~MS
4 .I GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This Section describes the AFETR systems which interface with KSC operations and are
located on Merritt Island. These systems consist of the RF system, AFETR Telemetry
Station (Tet IV), and the Frequency Control and Analysis System. There are other Eastern
Test Range (ETR) Systems which support KSC operations but they are not covered vfithin
this document.
4.2 RF SYSTEMS
The AN/TPQ-18 (C-Band) radar will derive position tracking data which will be trans-
mitted to the ETR Impact Prediction Computer. The Impact Prediction Computer uses the
KSC located radar data and other ETR radar data to derive trajectory information. Trajec-
tory data and/or raw radar data can be transmitted by cable from the Impact Prediction Com-
puter to the CIF _
4.3 AFETR TELEMETRY STATION (TEL IV)
4 -3.1 FUNCTlDN _ Receive, record and transmit data to the CIF during prelaunch and
launch phases.
4.3.2 DESCRIPTION. The basic ETR telemetry station (Figure 4-l) is composed of
five t!roups of equipment as Follows:
a ~ Antennas I
b. Receive and record a
c. Data separation.
d+ Data processing.
e. Display and records.
Figu:e 4-2 shows the inter-relationships between individual equipment and equipmentgroups * All the equipment is connected or patched through either video, analog or digital
patching equipment. The station has the capabitity to:
a. Receive electromagnetic energy in the I.30 to 2300 mc, band, using polar-
ization diversity techniques.
b. Rxord and reproduce the received data in predetected form.

c. Demodulate the FM carrier using conventional and phaselock techniques.
d. Demuitiplex a large variety of frequency division multiplex (FDMI and time
division multiplex ITDM) signals. A common digital language output is derived from all
the TDM equipment.
e. Convert demultiplexed information from an analog to a digital form or vice versa.
f. Visually display and/or record either analog or digital iniormation.
4.4 FREQU~NCYCONTROLANDANALYSISSYSTEM
4.4.1 FUNCTION. The aims of Frequency Control and Analysis (FCA) at AFETR areto ensure iilterference-free operations, to supply information on possible interfering trans-
mitting sources, and to give the operating characteristics of missile and ground support
transmitters, Certain frequency bands are monitored to prevent interference to test opera-
tions and to check whether or not AFETR operational frequency assignments and schedulesare maintained within their limits*
4.4.2 DESCRIPTION. The FCA facilities at ETR co;ls ist of Fixed stations, mobile,
and semi-mobiie vans. The means to bench check radar beacons have recently been added.
Two mobile vans are operational and a third is expected to be put in operation. The vans
are equipped to monitor, direction-find 6DF), analyze, obtain field intensities and fix
operating frequencies. They are used on the pads during launches and, on short notice,
may be driven to any mainland site to make spectal measurements, or trace interferencesources _
Two of the mobile vans contain identical instrumentation. The third has improved instru-
mentation, including complete beacon checkout for final go/no go determination.
4.4.3 CAPABIL!TIES I The FCA facilities have the capabilities as specified in Table
4-l.
