EX gr? OPERATIONS ORDER NO. 5-54 CIC OPERATORS INSTRUCTIONS oy” <o° . 9 STATUS CONTROLLER: The Status Controller is the Senior Controller's assistant and will supervise operational control of the two HF point- to-point operators on Circuits J-407, J-408, HF air-to-ground operator on Circuit J-410, and VHF Relay operator. very effort will be made to keep all circuits open for operations with the clearest adircuit being used to interchange information between DIRTY FACE and BOUNDARY TARE, All messages received from DIRTY FACE or to. be sent to DIRTY FACE will go through the Status Controller for disposition, Messages requiring immediate action, will so state, and take priority over aircraft position reporting, Communications difficulties on the above circuits will be re-srted to the Status Controller, who will contact the Electronics Officer or the CIC Officer for corrective action. All circuits will be continually monitored during entire operational periods. He will assure that positions one (1) through six (6) are properly displayed on the aircraft status boards. He will receive positions one (1) and six (6) from DIRTY FACE over one of the HF point-to-point circuits or over the VHF Relay circuit and will give positions two (2) through five (5) to DIRTY FACE, Exchange of control will be confirmed between BOUNDARY TARE and DIRTY FACE for positions two (2) and five (5). Positions one (1) through six (6) will be displayed by entering the times in red that each position was reached by each aircraft - positions two (2) and five (5) will be confirmed by circling the time entries in respective positions. & status log will be kept up to date by the status controller to assure positions one (1) and six (6) are received from the AOC and properly displayed on the CIC status boardsand that positions two (2) through five (5) are told to the AOC. Positions will be told between the AOC and CIC by given call sign, position and time (PEWTER 2, position three, one zero two zero), Aircraft in emergency and assisting aircraft or ships will take priority over othor aircraft plots to assure accurate positions, The Status Controller will be directly responsible to the Senior Controller. TELLERS: The Tellers will provide their plotter with a position on each aircraft at least each three minutes, In ease an aircraft is in an emergency, the frequency of plots will be increased to depict a constant heading and position, The Teller will give the plotter call sign, bear~ ing and range. (WILSON 1 zero two five at forty). The Teller and Plotter will use head and chest sets for reporting on a direct circuit, The Teller for scopes four, five and six will give positions two through five to the Sampler Status Clerk and three minutes positions on CASSIDY 1, WILSON1, ELAINE 2, VIKING and all TIGER aircraft to his plotter. STABLE will also be his responsibility until HeHour only, The Teller for scopes one, two, three and seven will give positions two through five to the Effects Status Clerk, and three minute positions on PEWTER 1, 2, and 3; HARDTIME 1, 2, and 3; FLOYD 1 and 2; WILSON 2 and 3; and EAGER BEAVER Aircraft to his Plotter. At H-Hour he will also assume telling responp sibilities on $T.BLE, The T,llers will be responsible to see that the’ plotted positions are maintained on the operation board each three minutes on all aircraft. He may read positions direct from the controllers scope or obtain call sign, ranre and bearing from the scope controllers, HF AND VHF iY OPERATIONS: The HF point-to-point monitor-tellers will make every effort, through the Status Controller, to keep circuits J-407, J-408, and VHF Relay operational to the AOC. The primary purpose of these circuits will be to pass aircraft positions and maintain coordination on ue com ot» 5-54 ANNEX T, APNDX 2 2s sg 4 . bs gor o* oo p ° wo €& ox éa &
