			== Optical Display Assembly ==
			The Optical Display Assembly (ODA), also referenced as the ANVIS Display Symbology Subsystem (ADSS) is a helmet mounted display system that is attached to the Night Vision Goggles and provides primary flight data similar to the VSD and Sparse VSD displays.

			The Pilot and Copilot have independent ODAs that can be configured from the Initial 2 page on their respective MFDs. The display mode and data are determined by the respective MFD page and weapon selections.

			=== ODA Symbology ===
			The ODA shares many symbology components with the VSD and Sparse Weapons pages on the MFDs. The symbology displayed varies depending on the selected weapon and weapon modes. The ODA also provides declutter options.

			==== ODA Declutter Levels ====
			The ODA Declutter Levels can be selected from the MFD Initial 2 page.

			When Level 1 is selected, the Vertical Speed Indicator and Analog Radar Altitude display are hidden.

			In Declutter Level 2, the Vertical Speed Indicator, Analog Radar Altitude Display, Indicated Airspeed, Barometric and Radar Altitude displays, Engine and Mast Torque indicators, Weapon Armament Indicator and all weapon symbologies are hidden.

			==== ODA Symbology – Gun ====
			When the Gun is selected from the Pilot’s Weapon Selector switch, the symbology includes the following displays:

			#MMS Line of Sight (LOS) Indicator 2. Gun Reference Cue

			==== ODA Symbology - Rockets ====

			#MMS Line of Sight (LOS) Indicator
			#ATAS Seeker Cue

			#Super elevation Bar

			=== Pilot Display Unit ===
			The Pilot Display Unit (PDU) is mounted to the helicopter airframe above the pilot’s windshield.

			The PDU can be adjusted vertically for differing pilot eye levels. The PDU control panel has a BRT knob which allows pilot to adjust display brightness and a TEST button which initiates the built-in test (BIT) of the PDU and Electronics Unit (EU).

			The PDU provides symbology and weapon system status for ATAS and symbology only for 2.75-inch rocket and .50 caliber machine gun weapon systems.

=== Introduction ===
The Control Display Subsystem (CDS) is the primary interface for both Pilot and Copilot to display and control flight and navigation data, communications, sensors and weapons.
The CDS is comprised of two Improved Master Controller Processor Units (IMCPUs), two Multifunction Displays (MFDs), one Multifunction Keyboard (MFK), one Remote Frequency Display (RFD), two Optical Display Assemblies (ODAs) and one Personal Computer Data Transfer System (PC-DTS).
Other systems linked to the CDS include the Mast Mounted Sensor (MMS), AN/APR-39 Radar Detector Set, AN/AVR-2 Laser Detection Set, AN/ALQ-144 Infra-red Countermeasures Device and the AN/AAR-57 Common Missile Warning System.

=== Improved Master Controller Processor Unit ===
The Left and Right Improved Master Controller Processor Units handle all inputs to the CDS and processes and displays data to the various output interfaces.

=== Multifunction Display ===
Two Multifunction Displays housed in the instrument display function as the main output device for the CDS. The MFDs operate independently allowing different functions to be performed simultaneously by the Pilot and Copilot.
