CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL (CPC)
Corrosion Prevention and Control (CPC) of Army materiel is a continuing concern. It is
important that any corrosion or degradation problems with this item be reported so that the
problem can be corrected and improvements can be made to prevent the problem in future
items. Corrosion specifically occurs with metals. It is an electrochemical process that causes
the degradation of metals. It is commonly caused by exposure to moisture, acids, bases, or
salts. An example is the rusting of iron. Corrosion damage in metals can be seen, depending
on the metal, as tarnishing, pitting, fogging, surface residue, and/or cracking. Plastics,
composites, and rubbers can also degrade. Degradation is caused by thermal (heat),
oxidation (oxygen), solvation (solvents), or photolytic (light, typically UV) processes. The most
common exposures are excessive heat or light. Damage from these processes will appear as
cracking, softening, swelling, and/or breaking.

THEORY OF OPERATION
THEORY OF OPERATION
This work package discusses theory of operation of the LW-SI.
The Land Warrior-Stryker Interoperable (LW-SI) system, an integrated Soldier-fighting system,
enhances the lethality, battle-command compatibility, survivability, mobility, and sustainability
of dismounted combat Soldiers, enabling them to engage and defeat the enemy targets while
minimizing friendly casualties.
The LW-SI system is modular, to permit tailoring for mission requirements, minimize the
combat load, and facilitate maintenance. The LW-SI facilitates command, control, and sharing
of battlefield information, thus providing total battlefield visibility and integration into the
digitized battlefield. The system integrates previously distinct components such as
communications, sensors, and power, thereby adding enhanced capabilities without adding
weight.
The LW-SI system is three major parts: LW-SI ensemble, Vehicle Integration Kit (VIK), and
Mission Data Support Equipment (MDSE). The LW-SI ensemble is worn by the Soldier and
includes weapon-mounted sensors, helmet mounted display, integrated load carrying
equipment, speaker, microphone, computer, navigation, radio, rechargeable battery, and
controls with a consistent and intuitive interface for use under battlefield conditions. The VIK
provides the interface/gateway between the LW-SI equipped Soldiers and Armys digitized
battlefield. The interface provides commanders with a common operating picture populated by
both LW-SI equipped Soldiers and other digitized assets across the battlefield. This situational
awareness provides the commanders with real time combat information and communication to
mitigate risks in their mission decision process. The MDSE provides a simple process for
commanders to prepare and plan battalion and below level missions for use on the LW-SI
system.
The LW-SI system enhances the dismounted combat Soldiers ability to locate, close with and
defeat the enemy.

DVS Boresighting Procedure (Non-Firing Zeroing Procedure)
Boresighting is the process of aligning the weapon systems sights with the bore of the
weapon. The Bore of the weapon is what the bullet travels down when the weapon is fired.
This procedure gives the operator a dry zero for 300 meters using either the M-4 or the M4/M203. Boresighting is a procedure that can be done in an assembly area, and does not
require ammunition to conduct (compared to the Firing Zeroing Procedure).

Do not stare at the Borelight LASER beam.


Do not shine the LASER into anyones eyes.
Do not look into the LASER through Binoculars or Telescopes.
Do not point the LASER at a reflective surface such as glass or a
mirror.
Use BLPS glasses or goggles to prevent damage to your eyes.
All weapons need to be cleared and on safe. There is no
requirement for blank or live rounds to complete this task.

When handling the Borelight and attachments, do not stress the


equipment at the connection points. Equipment damage could
result.
Boresighting the DVS
Zeroize the LASER Boresight System (LBS) IAW TM 9-5860-226-13&P, Chapter 2, Sections 1
and 2.
Use the 10-meter Bore Light Target sheet (Figure 19) for M4 MWS with Daylight Video Sight

CONFIGURE THE LW-SI ENSEMBLE - Continued


NOTE
Ensure borelight is properly aligned in bore of weapon first.
1.

Toggle to the DVS using the bottom left button on the Weapon User Input Device (WUID)
and confirm you can observe the 10-meter offset target in both the Wide and Narrow
fields of view.

2.

Toggle back to the main Graphic User Interface screen (GUI).

3.

Using the SCU, access the Menu, and click on the Configuration block from the Menu
(using the top button on the SCU and the cursor control).

4.

Using the cursor, click on the block Sighting Device from the list. This will display the
Sighting Device Configuration screen.

5.

Select the type of weapon system and the color of reticle. Currently the LW-SI system
has only the M4 reticle available, listed as the M16A4. You can access the Adjust
Reticle and Center Adjust Reticle buttons.

6.

Select the Adjust Reticle button which displays the DVS image. Select the Wide Field
of View (WFOV) using the WUID. This will display the Reticle Toolbar.
NOTE
It is important to write down or record the reticle location of the DVS
in both FOVs. This is in case the reticle is centered accidentally;
the location of the reticle is known and can be brought back to that
location.

7.

Using the SCU enter and exit buttons, begin adjusting the DVS reticle to its respective
DVS Aim Point on the target sheet by selecting the desired direction and watching the
reticle move in the HMD, as well as watching the reticle position change.

8.

An alternate technique is to change the reticle color to assist in alignment. For example,
while aligning a black reticle, you may want to see the reticle change colors like the
reverse reticle does. Go to the Adjust Reticle Toolbar and select TY. This stands for
Type. You can toggle between the three types of reticles: Black, White, and Reverse.

0004-66

CONFIGURE THE LW-SI ENSEMBLE - Continued


NOTE
The movement direction on the Reticle Toolbar is for the strike of
the round during firing.
The spotter can aid in the viewing of the WFOV reticle desired aim
point as 10 meters by using an object like an ink pen to help the
LW-SI operator see where the reticle needs to be moved to.
In the WFOV, using the 10-meter offset target, each square on the
10-meter offset target is equal to one centimeter. It takes two clicks
on the top button of SCU to move the reticle one square at 10meters in the WFOV. In the NFOV, it takes nine clicks on the top
button of SCU to move the reticle one square at 10-meters.
9.

Once the adjustment of the reticle is complete for the WFOV, the user should toggle to
the Narrow Field of View (NFOV) and use the same procedure for sight alignment.
NOTE
The DVS is aligned in the WFOV and NFOV only. The ZOOM FOV
is a digital zoom. It is the center of the NFOV magnified. This is
similar to the zoom of the TWS.
If the DVS is removed from the weapon, for any reason, after
boresighting has been completed, the boresighting must be
reaccomplished when the DVS is returned to the weapon.

10.

To ensure reticle adjustments are saved, toggle out of the Adjust Reticle screen and
cycle around to the DVS image again. The reticle should reside at the last position you
moved it to.

SCOPE
This work package lists COEI and BII for the LW-SI to help you inventory items for safe and
efficient operation of the equipment.
GENERAL
The COEI and BII information is divided into the following lists:
Components of End Item (COEI). This list is for information purposes only and is not authority
to requisition replacements. These items are part of the LW-SI. As part of the end item, these
items must be with the end item whenever it is issued or transferred between property
accounts. Items of COEI are removed and separately packaged for transportation or shipment
only when necessary.
Basic Issue Items (BII). These essential items are required to place the LW-SI in operation,
operate it and to do emergency repairs. Although shipped separately packaged, BII must be
with the LW-SI during operation and when it is transferred between property accounts. Listing
these items is your authority to request/requisition them for replacement based on
authorization of the end item by the TOE/MTOE.

This fine document...


Was brought to you by me:

Liberated Manuals -- free army and government manuals


Why do I do it? I am tired of sleazy CD-ROM sellers, who take publicly
available information, slap watermarks and other junk on it, and sell it.
Those masters of search engine manipulation make sure that their sites that
sell free information, come up first in search engines. They did not create it...
They did not even scan it... Why should they get your money? Why are not
letting you give those free manuals to your friends?
I am setting this document FREE. This document was made by the US
Government and is NOT protected by Copyright. Feel free to share,
republish, sell and so on.
I am not asking you for donations, fees or handouts. If you can, please
provide a link to liberatedmanuals.com, so that free manuals come up first in
search engines:
