    SAAF - MAAF Site Visit Questions and Answers.pdf
    The document addresses vendor inquiries regarding Project FQ-00040-24, which focuses on upgrading the Airfield Lighting Control Systems at Simmons Army Airfield (SAAF) and Mackall Army Airfield (MAAF). The primary purpose of the PWS (Performance Work Statement) is to enhance the existing Airfield Lighting Control and Monitoring System (ALMCS), specifically upgrading to the L-890 system. Notably, while MAAF's runways will be integrated under a single control panel, the control for beacons and certain windcones will not be included in this upgrade. The document clarifies that there will be no changes to the power source for the windcones, which operate on 120v, and emphasizes the integration of a new control of the beacon into the ALMCS. Additionally, communication between the HMI panel in the tower and the PLC cabinet for runway control is confirmed via RS232 comms boxes. This project reflects the government's commitment to improving airfield operations while ensuring safety and efficiency standards are met.
