 PIK ALGORITHM

Power applied Wait for request from Host System

- receive fuze data
Initialize SBC - set fuze when EPIAFS enter switch
is pressed and return results
Establish links - interrogate fuze
- return PIK status
Init GPS rcvr - return fuze history
& EPIAFS - return GPS key status
- zeroize GPS keys
BIT: SBC, - return software version
GPS, EPIAFS - return BIT failure log

• Integrate PLD with coil driver circuit
• Design & build 12v reg and 24v switch
• Demonstrate PIK/EPIAFS brass-board
• Update PIK & EPIAFS design
• Convert EPIAFS software to new micro
• Deliver prototype setters
• User human factor evaluations
• Assist PIK integration in JLW-155
• Test PIK with prototype Raytheon GNC
