The first segment to be launched into orbit, designated Z1, will not permanently attach to other truss segments. The Z1 segment is a 10 ft(3 m) cubelike truss made from six machined bulkheads that are bolted together. The truss houses four control moment gyroscopes that form part of the guidance, navigation, and control system. The location of Z1 is nearly in the middle of the station, which makes it an ideal location for the gyroscopes. A micrometeor shield composed of three sheets of 0. 25 in.(6 mm) aluminum about 5 in.(127 mm) apart protects the sensitive gyroscopes from debris. The 18, 300 lb(8, 300 kg) Z1 segment is currently scheduled to be launched by the end of this year. The truss is a transitional structure that will connect to the pressurized Unity module already on orbit. Astronauts will tighten 16 motorized bolts on the circular coupling on the Unity module side into nuts on Z1 and connect the associated utility plug-ins. Pressurized units generally have circular couplings and nonpressurized unit connectors are rectangular. 10, record 3, English, - Z1%20truss

The Z1 truss segment is equipped with several spacewalk aids: Two EVA tool stowage devices (ETSDs), 22 worksite interface (WIF) sockets, 1 flight-releasable grapple fixture (FRGF), 11 trusses, 2 tray launch restraints, numerous standard handholds and handrails, and several custom handles. 11, record 3, English, - Z1%20truss

Z1 est une plate-forme de communication [qui] supporte des systèmes de communication en bande Ku et S. Le système en bande Ku permet une transmission de données à haut-débit vers le sol, à la vitesse de 50 Mbps Mégabits par secondes). C'est suffisant pour transmettre 4 signaux vidéo en même temps. Ce système servira donc pour la liaison télévisée, mais aussi pour le fret à bord. 8, record 3, French, - poutre%20Z1

Asset Accounting is a sub-ledger accounting module in Financial Accounting, in which all business activities for fixed assets are recorded. The Asset Accounting(FI-AA) component is used for managing and supervising fixed assets with SAP R/3 System. Financial Accounting serves as a subsidiary ledger to the FI General Ledger, providing detailed information on transactions involving fixed assets. As a result of the integration system, FI-AA transfers data directly to and from other systems i. e., it is possible to post from the Materials Management(MM) component directly to FI-AA. When an asset is purchased or produced in-house, it can directly post the invoice receipt or goods receipt, or the withdrawal from the warehouse, to assets in FI-AA. At the same time, it can pass on depreciation and interest directly to Financial Accounting(FI) and Cost Accounting(CO). From the Plant Maintenance(PM) component, it can settle maintenance activities that require capitalization to assets. 1, record 4, English, - Asset%20Accounting

La Comptabilité des immobilisations est un module comptable de tiers en comptabilité financière, où sont enregistrées toutes les activités commerciales pour l'actif immobilisé. La composante de la comptabilité d'immobilisations (FI-AA) sert à administrer et à superviser l'actif immobilisé avec le système R/3 SAP. La Comptabilité financière sert de livre auxiliaire au grand livre FI, en fournissant des renseignements détaillés sur les transactions se rapportant à l'actif immobilisé. Comme conséquence du système d'intégration, FI-AA transfère les données directement à d'autres systèmes et à partir d'autres systèmes : il est possible de faire des reports de la composante de gestion des articles (MM) directement dans FI-AA. Lorsqu'on achète ou qu'on produit un élément d'actif à l'interne, le système peut reporter directement l'entrée de factures ou de marchandises dans l'actif de FI-AA. Entre-temps, il peut transférer directement l'amortissement et les intérêts de comptabilité financière (FI) et de comptabilité analytique (CO). À partir de la composante de maintenance (PM), il peut régler les activités d'entretien qui doivent être capitalisées. 1, record 4, French, - Comptabilit%C3%A9%20des%20immobilisations
