3ContentThe FTSR contains technical information on the FTS. When applicable, previously furnished documentation shall be referenced rather than incorporated into the report. The FTSR shall include the following information:

3.1IntroductionScope and purpose.

3.2General system descriptionThis section contains a brief and general description of the FTS and includes a block diagram showing the location of all FTS components on the vehicle, including interfaces with other systems.

3.3Detailed system descriptionThis section contains the complete and detailed narrative description of all the major components of the FTS. The following items are included in this section:

aNarrative description

(1)The complete and detailed description of the FTS operationThe complete and detailed description of the FTS operation including all possible scenarios and discussion of how FTS components function at the system and piece-part levels.

(2)A complete and detailed description of each FTS componentA complete and detailed description of each FTS component and how it functions, including references to specifications and schematics, mechanical and piece-part specifications, and operating parameters.

bDetailed schematics of the complete FTSDetailed schematics of the complete FTS showing component values (resistance, capacitance, wattage), tolerances, shields, grounds, connectors and pin numbers, and telemetry pickoff points. The schematics include all vehicle components and elements which interface with or share common use with the FTS. All pin assignments shall be accounted for. Results of the bent-pin analysis.

cDrawings showing the location of all FTS system componentsDrawings showing the location of all FTS system components on the vehicle. Description of element siting, mounting (attach points), and cable routing (for physical isolation). Includes a description of electrical connectors and electrical isolation of the FTS. Include an illustrated parts breakdown of all mechanically operated FTS components.

dAntenna link analysis and battery load analysis

3.4Environmental testingThis section references all qualification, acceptance, and certification test plans, procedures, and reports. This section includes the following data:

aThe maximum predicted flight loadsThe maximum predicted flight loads (per axis for three axis) for all anticipated environmental forces (for example, shock, vibration, acceleration and thermal) for each FTS component. Include a summary of the analysis or measurements used to derive the maximum predicted environments for each component.

bA matrix of the actual qualification and acceptance test levelsA matrix of the actual qualification and acceptance test levels used for each component in each test versus the predicted flight levels for each environment.

cA clear identification of those components qualified by similarityA clear identification of those components qualified by similarity, analysis or a combination of analysis and test.

3.5Failure analysis and corrective actionThis section contains all failure analyses, reports and corrective actions for all FTS major components which fail to meet specifications, tolerances or test procedure requirements.

3.6ModificationsThis section includes all proposed and final modifications to an approved FTS, associated equipment, component identification, test procedures, or any changes affecting the configuration or integrity of the FTS.

3.7Reliability analysisThis section includes all analysis and data to support the reliability requirements for the FTS.

aA discussion of how the FTS meets the design requirementsA discussion of how the FTS meets the design requirements of single-fault tolerance and reliability design goal.

bThe results of fratricide and sneak circuit analysesThe results of fratricide and sneak circuit analyses when required.

cInclude the Failure Modes, Effects, and Criticality Analysis (FMECA)Include the Failure Modes, Effects, and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) when required.

3.8Installation and checkoutThis section includes all procedures for installation and checkout of all FTS components and a description of all equipment used during the checkout, to include a wiring diagram depicting any interfaces to the FTS.
