John Stennis (CVN 74) - Naval Cruise Book

Page 96 text:

CSS is comprised of the Ad- vanced Combat Direction Sys- tem (ACDS) Technicians and the Printer Copier Repair Tech- nicians. The ACDS Technicians maintain and repair all of the as- sociated equipment required to provide the Tactical Action Of- ficer with a real world picture of current operations. This allows the TAO the ability to fight the ship if the need was ever to arise. The ACDS suite receives inputs from almost every sensor onboard, analyzes the information and then displays the data in Combat Direction Center via a real time digital pic- ture. Our Printer Copier technicians are responsible for the main- tenance and repair of over 75 Xerox copying machines ranging from small desktop models to a 135 page per minute printing press. We also maintain the professional level color copiers. We also maintain and supply parts for over 300 LaserJet printers used throughout the ship. 92 USS JOHN C. STENNIS (CVN 74)
