FLIGHT ENVIRONMENT DATA
Overview
The Flight Environment Data has four air data systems that include:
− LH Upper Air Data Smart Probe (501FE)
− RH Upper Air Data Smart Probe (401FE)
− LH Lower Air Data Smart Probe (301FE)
− RH Lower Air Data Smart Probe (201FE)
− LH TAT Sensor (L101FE)
− RH TAT Sensor (R101FE)
"SmartProbes", so called because they incorporate not only the sensors but also the Air Data Computer
Each Air Data System (ADS) provides the following aircraft level functions that follow:
− Transmission to Modular Avionics Unit (MAU) for display on the Pilot and Copilot Primary Display Units (PDUs):
• Baro Corrected Altitude (Pilot and Copilot)
• Indicated and True Airspeeds (IAS, TAS)
• Total Air Temperature (TAT)
• Static Air Temperature (SAT)
• True Mach
• VMO/MMO Indication
• Baro Correction
• Air Data System Status
− Transmission for display on the Electronic Stand-by Instrument:
• Pressure Baro Corrected Altitude
• Indicated Airspeed
• True Mach
• VMO/MMO Indication
− Transmission of Angle of Attack (AOA) and Angle of Sideslip (AOS), free stream static pressure (Ps) and impact
pressure (Pt-Ps) and ΔVMO/ΔMMO information to the Primary Flight Control System (PFCS) from each air data
system, and status information. The PFCS uses air data for low speed and high speed limitation, and gain scheduling.
The Air Data System is comprised of two left-hand (LH) Smart Probes, two right-hand (RH) Smart Probes, and two Total
Air Temperature (TAT) probes. The system is configured such that the aircraft is provided with four independent air data
“systems” (ADS1, ADS2, ADS3, ADS4). The LH Smart Probes are functionally different than the RH Smart Probes and
are labeled as different part numbers. The TAT Probes are identical. A Multifunction Probe (MFP) is part of the Smart
Probe, but is also designed as a line replaceable unit (LRU). The MFP is identical for all four Smart Probes.
02-34-10-02
The primary purpose of the Air Data System is to provide independent air data information to each display used by the
flight crew; the Primary Display Units (PDUs) and the Electronic Standby Instruments (ESI) Display. The Fly By Wire
(FBW) Primary Flight Control System (PFCS) receives much of the same information directly from the ADS. Certain air
data parameters are also used by other aircraft systems via the Modular Avionics Units (MAU). The following are the main
functions provided by the ADS for the aircraft:
− Provide calculated air data to avionics and flight control system
− Provide anti-icing for air data probes
− The acquisition of air data for use by the aircraft systems (i.e. avionics, PFCS) is performed by four independent
Smart Probes and two independent TAT probes. Each Smart Probe has two independent and dissimilar channels, A
and B. Each channel has dissimilar complex hardware and dissimilar software Each TAT probe has two resistive
elements, each element connected to one Smart Probe.

FLIGHT ENVIRONMENT DATA (CONTINUED)
Overview (Continued)
As indicated here, the ADS functions not only to acquire air data but also to provide a significant amount of calculated air
data information. Further elaboration of some of this information may be performed within the receiving systems. The ADS
interfaces directly with the fly-by-wire PFCS, Avionics (MAU, Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS), ESI
Display, Cockpit Mounted Overhead Panel (OP) and Integrated Maintenance System. There are several indirect
consumers of air data through the MAU.
Aircraft AOA is provided to the PFCS. The PFCS determines a reference AOA from the four Air Data Systems to use for
the AOA limiting function. This reference AOA is also transmitted to Avionics from the PFCS for low speed cues on both
pilots' displays. This ensures coherence between avionics display and PFCS with respect to PFCS AOA limiting and low
speed awareness cues to the pilot.
The PFCS uses the air data information for other flight control algorithms such as high speed limiting. In addition, the
PFCS performs comparisons of the air data information provided by each ADS as a means of detecting ADS failures. The
PFCS reports any detected failure to the Avionics.
Aircraft configuration data (such as flap, slat, airbrake, spoiler, Ram Air Turbine (RAT) and landing gear position) is
provided by the Avionics to allow the Smart Probes to perform Static Source Error Correction (SSEC) and Total Source
Error Correction (TSEC). SSEC is required to fully compensate static pressure and TSEC to fully compensate total
pressure. This information is provided by the MAUs to the Air Data System via a direct ARINC-429 connection (General
Purpose bus). Pilot and Copilot Baro Correction information is also provided to the Air Data System via the General
Purpose ARINC-429 data bus. Each pilot has a reversion switch located on the reversion panel that allows for the
selection of ADS1, ADS2 or ADS3 for display.
Interface with OP
Input from the Cockpit Mounted Overhead Panel is provided to control the application of Smart Probe heating power to
the MFP and TAT. This input is controlled both by automatic logic in the avionics and pilot override switches in the
Overhead Panel.

FLIGHT ENVIRONMENT DATA (CONTINUED)
Components Air Data Probe Connectors
Guidance Panel Controller
The pilot and copilot baro setting knobs are found on the guidance panel controller (601FP). The pilot-side baro setting
knob adjusts the barometric altitude shown on the LH PDU (L101FD). The copilot-side baro setting knob adjusts the
barometric altitude shown on the RH PDU (R101FD). A selection knob is available for the pilots to select either mBar or
inHg as the units of pressure for the barometric pressure setting. Failure of these knobs is evident since a baro altitude
miscompare generates an amber ALT flag on the PDUs.
The smart probe air data systems calculate the baro corrected altitude. Each smart probe receives the pilot and copilot
baro knob settings. The smart probe then calculates and transmits the pilot and copilot baro corrected altitude to the
avionics. If there is an ADS reversion by a pilot, the avionics makes sure the displayed baro corrected altitude shows the
baro setting selection by the pilot.
Reversion Controller
Each pilot has a reversion switch, labeled ADS, found on the reversion controller (301FP) that lets the pilot select the
ADS1, ADS2 or ADS3 for the primary display. When a reversion is done by the pilot or copilot, an ADS reversion flag is
raised. The manual reversion sequence for the pilot is ADS1 (default) > ADS3 > ADS2. The reversion sequence for the
copilot is ADS2 (default) > ADS3 > ADS1. If there is a defective ADS3, the reversion sequence for the pilot is ADS1 >
ADS2, and ADS2 > ADS1 for the copilot. The pilot or copilot uses the ADS buttons, to do the reversion.
Smart Probes
The Smart Probe is an LRU consisting of a multi-functional air data probe (MFP) and a dual-channel air data computer
(ADC). The MFP is also an LRU, the ADC is not. The MFP is outside the aircraft skin and the ADC (which contains all the
electronics) exists inside the aircraft skin. The LH Smart Probes are functionally the same but are of dissimilar design to
the RH Smart Probes and are labeled as different part numbers. All four MFPs are identical. Both TAT Probes are
identical.
Not shown above are the symmetric static source port of Ps and the second water drain hole (one on top and one on the
bottom, to provide drainage for all probe locations). The symmetric Ps ports are tied together (pneumatically averaged)
inside the MFP to reduce the effects of probe AOA.
The MFP aerodynamically adjusts the measured static pressure by the probe’s shape and port locations. The geometry of
the MFP is designed to achieve the desired pressure distribution. Static port position is designed to maximize the
resolution for the correction of probe measurement errors. The MFP is characterized within wind tunnels. This probe
characterization results in a unique set of tables that correlate the combination of Pt, Pα1 and Pα2 port pressures to local
static and total pressures as well as local AOA.

− One of the two Smart Probes performs all calculations

− Full color is used for the calculation part of the Smart Probe
− Stripes of the same color are used for the Sideslip compensation part performed by the opposite Smart Probe
For example, ADS1 (yellow) uses Smart Probe 1 for calculations and Smart Probe 2 for Sideslip compensation. ADS3

case of reversion. Because the sideslip compensation is performed by the opposite Smart Probe, the complete loss of

VOR-ILS-DATALINK / GPS-VIDL NAV SYSTEM
Overview
The VOR - ILS - Datalink / GPS (VIDL-G) modules (103NR)/(203NR) are remote-controlled integrated airborne Navigation
(NAV) receivers. The VIDL/G modules receive data for in-flight NAV and approach and landing data that is used to align
the aircraft with a runway. This data includes the items that follow:
− VOR data for in-flight NAV, terminal NAV, and area guidance
− Localizer (LOC) and glideslope data for Instrument Landing System (ILS) approach and landing
− Marker (MKR) beacon distance-to-runway threshold data for ILS approach and landing
− Global Positioning System (GPS) correction data and runway flight paths for the GPS landing system
One VIDL/G module is installed in each Modular Radio Cabinet (MRC) (101NZ)/(201NZ). The antennas that follow are
installed on the external fuselage of the aircraft:
− LH VOR/LOC Antenna (L2203NR) − Glideslope Antenna (2403NR)
− RH VOR/LOC Antenna (R2203NR) − GPS 1 Antenna (2603NR)
− Marker Antenna (2503NR) − GPS 2 Antenna (2703NR)
VIDL-G
The VIDL-G is an airborne navigation receiver that operates in VOR, ILS and VHF Data Broadcast (VDB) receiver modes
and also operates as a GPS receiver. The VIDL-G provides VOR for radio direction information, ILS approach and landing
navigation guidance information that includes the Localizer, Glideslope and Marker Beacon. These radio functions give
azimuth, elevation angular deviation, and discrete position fixes relative to the runway threshold. The VHF Data Broadcast
Receiver provides reception of GPS correction data and runway flight paths for the GPS Landing System. This data is
broadcast by the ground stations and is acquired by tuning to the published broadcast frequency for a particular station.
The VIDL-G also includes a GPS feature consisting of a stand-alone GPS receiver.

Each NIM also has an interface to the Avionics Standard Communication Bus, Version-D (ASCB-D) digital bus. This
ASCB-D digital bus interface uses the same type of circuitry and software as the Network Interface Controller
(NIC)/processor modules (2101FY)/(2201FY)/(2301FY)/(2401FY) that are installed in the MAUs (101FY)/(201FY). The
ASCB-D digital bus lets each NIM receive tuning signals and mode signals from the NIC/processor modules. Each NIM
transmits the tuning signals and mode signals on the RCB to its related VIDL/G module in the MRC. The NIC/processor
modules are part of the data acquisition system.
VOR/LOC Antennas
The VOR/LOC antenna coupler (2303NR) divides the signal from the VOR/LOC antennas (L2203NR)/(R2203NR) and
sends it to each VOR and LOC receiver.
The VOR/LOC antenna is a horizontally-polarized antenna with two blades. Each blade has a BNC-type connector. The
dual antenna connects to the VIDL/G modules through a phasing coupler and an in-line filter. The antenna has a
frequency range from 108 MHz to 118 MHz. The antenna is installed on the vertical stabilizer.
Glideslope Antenna
The glide slope antenna (2403NR) is a hook-type, horizontally-polarized antenna. It has a TNC-type connector that
connects to the VIDL-G modules through a diplexer. The antenna has a frequency range of 329.0 MHz to 335.3 MHz. Its
maximum weight is 0.875 lb (0.397 kg). The antenna is installed in the radome above the weather radar antenna.

a 9960-Hz subcarrier. The related phase of the two 30-Hz signals gives radial lines in space related to the ground station.
The VOR receiver can then find the bearing of the aircraft to the ground station.
The receiver receives the NAV signals and sends them to the signal processor for analysis. The synthesizer uses the
digital channel/frequency data and changes it to the necessary radio frequency signals. The output of the VOR receiver
goes through signal processing circuitry.
The signal processing circuitry uses a 16-bit microcontroller to apply a filter to and send the signals. The signal processor
supplies the different signals necessary for NAV. These signals go to the interface unit. The interface unit changes the
digital signals into the analog and serial digital signals to operate the different display and control instruments in the
aircraft.
The VOR receiver also supplies the fault history and status data to the central maintenance system.
The VOR functionality is provided by the NV-875A. The VOR information can be displayed to the pilots via the PDU’s in
the form of an HSI or RMI indicators or both.
Modes of Operation
The NAV frequencies are set with the CCD or the MKB through the NAV / ADF page of the Radio window or through the
PRB on the HSI. In addition, a NAV shortcut on the MKB directly brings the cursor to the PRB and automatically selects
the on-side NAV if it was not the selected system. A back-up tuning method is also provided using the shift key and the
NAV button. The entered frequency is then sent directly to the NAV unit. This method is used when the primary method
described above is not operational.
Data Flow
Since the NV-875A is located in the MRC, data flows from the NV-875A to the NIM and from the NIM onto ASCB. There it
goes to the FMS and to the displays where its information is presented to the pilots. Data travels the same path in reverse
to go back to the NV-875A in the event of a frequency tune or Crs change. An exception is for emergency tuning of the
frequency using the MKB. In this case, the data travels from the MKB over ARINC-429, passing through the NIM, directly
to the NV-875A. The NV-875A is also connected to the VOR/LOC antenna.

channel separation. The ground station transmits an radio frequency signal that is divided into two beams. Each beam
goes along one side of the runway. A 90-Hz sine wave signal controls one beam. A 150-Hz sine wave signal controls the
other beam.
The LOC receiver compares the amplitude difference between the 90-Hz and 150-Hz signals. The LOC receiver uses the
amplitude difference to supply left and right command data and alerts to the pilot and copilot. When the aircraft is in the
middle of the runway approach centerline, the LOC receiver receives equal amounts of 90-Hz and 150-Hz tones through
the VOR/LOC antenna.
VOR/LOC Data
The “Crs” readout has three digits with leading zeros if necessary. The readout has a range from 1° to 360° with a
resolution of 1°. The readout digits are the same color as the VOR/LOC CDI pointer. The "Crs" label is always white. If the
pilot changes the course with the data set knob on the CCD, a scroll icon shows in cyan in front of the readout. When the
cursor focus is not on the readout, the scroll icon does not show. The readout does not show when the VOR/LOC CDI
pointer does not show. When the course data is incorrect, the readout is replaced by amber dashes.
When the pilot makes the VOR/LOC CDI selection and a Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) distance is available, the
DME station identifier and distance show on the HSI. The DME station identifier can as many as four characters. The
DME identifier does not show if the DME station identifier is the same as the VOR/LOC station. The DME distance has a
range from 0 NM to 524 NM. For distances that are less than 100 NM, the DME readout goes to the nearest 0.1 NM with
a resolution of 0.1 NM. For distances that are more than or equal to 100 NM, the DME readout goes to 1 NM with a
resolution of 1 NM. If the DME is in a hold, an "H" indication shows adjacent to the distance readout in white reverse
video. The DME readout shows in white. When the data is incorrect, the DME readout is replaced by amber dashes.
The glideslope receiver operates on 40 glideslope channels in the frequency range from 329.15 MHz to 335.0 MHz in
150-kHz increments. The ground station transmits a radio frequency signal that is divided into two beams. A 90-Hz sine
wave signal controls one beam. A 150-Hz sine wave signal controls the other beam.
The glideslope receiver compares the amplitude difference between the 90-Hz and 150-Hz signals. The glideslope
receiver uses the amplitude difference to supply up and down command data and alerts to the pilot and copilot. The two
signals are equal in magnitude along a line of 2.5° to 3° above the runway.
According to the vertical active or armed mode, the color of vertical deviation pointer is:
− Cyan if G/S is armed
− Magenta if G/S is active
− White if LOC is tuned and G/S is not armed or active

FMS NAV Source LOC NAV Source
VOR-ILS-DATALINK / GPS-VIDL NAV SYSTEM (CONTINUED)
Operation (Continued)
ILS
The ILS system is comprised of the localizer, glide slope and marker beacon receivers. The ILS system receivers are
housed in the NV-875A. The ILS receiver information is displayed on the PDU’s ADI. There is a small course deviation
indicator on the lower portion of the ADI and a glide slope indicator present on the right hand side of the ADI. The ILS
information can also be displayed in the Stand By instrument.
Data Flow
Since the NV-875A is located in the MRC, data flows from the NV-875A to the NIM and from the NIM onto ASCB. There it
goes to the FMS, flight director, and to the displays where its information is presented to the pilots. Data travels the same
path in reverse to return to the NV-875A - such as in the event of a frequency tune change. An exception is for emergency
tuning of the frequency using the MKB. In this case, the data travels from the MKB over ARINC-429, passing through the
NIM, directly to the NV-875A. The LOC and Glide deviations are also send by ARINC 429 bus to the stand by instrument.
The NV-875A is also connected to the Glide-slope and to the Marker antenna.
Crew Operation
To operate the ILS portion of the NAV radio, the crew simply tunes the appropriate NAV to a selected ILS frequency. The
crew then pushes the APP button on the guidance panel to activate the approach. When the ILS receiver begins receiving
the ground station, the glide slope and azimuth course deviation indicator begin to indicate on the ADI of the PDU. If the
aircraft passes over any marker beacons, the appropriate annunciation will display on the ADI and the audio tone will
sound if MKR is selected on the audio panel. If there are no localizer or glide slope indications, LOC and GS flags will
appear indicating a problem.
Excessive Deviations
Lateral Deviation Excessive Indicator
If the active navigation source is LOC and tuned to LOC, the lateral deviation excessive indication shall be displayed
when the proper condition exists. If a CAT2, HUD2 or HUD3 is active and the lateral deviation exceeds +0.0259 DDM (1
dot) (LOC) the left triangle will be displayed. If the lateral deviation exceeds -0.0259 DDM (1 dot) (LOC) the right triangle
will be displayed. The color of the triangle will be red if the radio altitude is <=200 ft and amber if the radio altitude is >200
ft. When the data is deemed invalid, the indication will be removed.
Excessive Deviations
If CAT 2 is active and the lateral deviation exceeds +0.0259 DDM (1 dot) the left triangle is be displayed.
If CAT 2 is active and the lateral deviation exceeds -0.0259 DDM (1 dot) the right triangle is displayed.
If a CAT 2 is active and the vertical deviation exceeds +0.0875 DDM (1 dot) (LOC) the up triangle is displayed.
If a CAT 2 is active and the vertical deviation exceeds -0.0875 DDM (1 dot) (LOC) the down triangle is displayed.

VOR-ILS-Datalink/GPS (VIDL/G) Navigation System
VOR-ILS-DATALINK / GPS-VIDL NAV SYSTEM (CONTINUED)
Operation (Continued) Data Flow
GPS Function While the GPS is located in the NV-875A, its data path is different than the VOR/ILS navigation data. The GPS data is
transmitted over an ARINC 429 bus through the NIM to a Generic I/O module for replication onto the ASCB data bus.
The GPS is a fully automatic 12-channel receiver that receives the L1 transmissions from the NAV system with the Time
There it goes to the FMS and the displays where its information is presented to the pilots. Data travels the same path in
and Ranging (NAVSTAR) GPS satellite signals. The GPS function calculates the position of the aircraft from the angular

transmitted over an ARINC 429 bus by the Generic I/O module through the NIM to the GPS receiver. GPS data is also
provided to the IRS via ARINC 429 bus through the NIM.
The GPS is the primary source of NAV data used by the FMS. The GPS output data includes a three-dimensional aircraft

The GPS receiver located within the NV-875A is also connected to the GPS 1 or GPS 2 antennas.
ellipsoid as its reference frame.
Crew Operation
The GPS supplies a Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitor (RAIM) function that makes sure that the data transmitted to
the FMS is correct. When the RAIM is within limits, the FMS only uses the GPS position data. Additional GPS information, such as the number of satellites tracked, current RAIM, date, and time can be accessed
through the GPS window on the PDU. On GPS window, a selection is available, Pred RAIM, which when selected, allows
the crew to view the predicted RAIM value for the current destination. The crew is also able to enter any waypoint and
The GPS also supplies a predictive RAIM function that lets the FMS find the integrity levels at specific locations and times estimated time of crossing in order to view the predicted RAIM for that location.
to supply nonprecision approaches. This predictive RAIM function also lets you prepare flight plans for the FMS.
Use of the GPS by the FMS is automatically selected by the FMS, unless the crew deselects the GPS for usage using the

cannot be set during the POST. After this mode completes the GPS changes to the Initialization or
Fault mode.
Initialization This mode sets the GPS module circuits to an initial condition to receive satellite signals. After the
GPS module completes this mode, it changes to the Acquisition or Fault mode.
Acquisition The GPS module changes to this mode immediately after the Initialization mode. During the
Acquisition mode, the GPS module monitors different satellites and locks on to the available
signals. The GPS module then transmits the satellite signal to the FMS.
After the GPS module collects sufficient satellite signals to calculate its position, it changes to the
Navigation mode. The GPS module changes to the Acquisition mode when it cannot collect data
from satellites for more than 30 sec.
Navigation During this mode, the GPS module uses the satellite data to calculate the aircraft PVT. The GPS
module calculates this data seven times per second.
The GPS module stays in the Navigation mode as long as it can stay locked on to four or more
satellites. From this mode, the GPS module changes to the Aided, Acquisition, or Fault mode.
Aided The GPS module changes to this mode when it does not have sufficient satellite and altitude aiding
data, but external aided data is available. From this mode, the GPS module can change to the
Navigation, Acquisition, or Fault mode.
Altitude Aiding The GPS module changes to this mode only when three satellites and calibrated altitude data are
available. This data provides sufficient data to the GPS module to calculate the aircraft PVT. From
this mode, the GPS module can change to the Navigation, Acquisition, or Fault mode.
Fault The GPS module changes to this mode when it finds a failure in the system. If the failure is critical,
the GPS module does not operate. The Fault mode replaces all other modes and continues until
the GPS module is turned off and then turned on again.

DISTANCE MEASURING EQUIPMENT (DME) SYSTEM (CONTINUED)
Operation
A DME module is installed in each MRC part of the modular radio system Each DME module connects to the Radio
Control Bus (RCB) that is built into the backplane of the MRC. The RCB connects to the Network Interface Module (NIM)
in the MRC.
Each NIM contains the microphone bus interface and the digital audio bus interface that let the DME modules
communicate with the audio panels in the Audio Integrating System. The digital audio bus transmits the DME signals to
each audio panel. The audio panels change digital data to analog outputs for the headsets and speakers in the cockpit.
Each NIM also has an interface to the Avionics Standard Communication Bus, version-D (ASCB-D). This ASCB-D bus
interface uses the same type of circuitry and software as the Network Interface Controller (NIC) modules that are installed
in each MAU as part of the Data Acquisition System. The ASCB-D bus lets each NIM receive radio commands from the
NIC modules. Each NIM transmits the radio commands on the RCB to its related DME module in the MRC.
DME Operation
The DME module is a six-channel radio receiver that scans for NAV data. The DME module monitors a maximum of four
DME channels for distance, ground speed, and time-to-station data at the same time. The DME module also monitors two
preset channels for the IDENT functions. The DME module can monitor four DME channels while it has the decoded
IDENT data available from the two remaining channels.
The DME module operates with radio pulses in the frequency range of 960 to 1215 MHz. The DME module transmits from
1025 to 1150 MHz to a ground station. The ground–station beacon transmits from 960 to 1213 MHz. The DME module
uses two of its four DME channels for the Flight Management System (FMS). The other two DME channels are available
to control and show the distance, time-to-station, ground speed, and IDENT functions.
The two preset IDENT channels have the decoded IDENT data available immediately. The Very High Frequency (VHF)
Omnidirectional Range (VOR) channel is a preset channel. After you make the VOR channel selection, the search
function of the DME module supplies the equivalent function of four continuous DME channels immediately. The DME
frequency selection is automatically related (as a pair) with the VHF NAV channels. The DME system includes the
following functions:
− Mutual Suppressor − Signal Processing
− Transmitter − Frequency/Mode Control
− Receiver − Power Supply
− Audio Output − Self Test

XPDR system operates as a secondary, remote-controlled ATCRBS and a Mode S and diversity XPDR. Each ATC XPDR
system supplies the elementary surveillance functions that follow:
− Surveillance of aircraft identification (IDENT) codes transmitted by adjacent aircraft,
− Barometric (BARO) altitude data and coded message data transmitted to ATC ground stations.
The ATC XPDR system also supplies the enhanced-surveillance function parameters that follow:
− BARO Pressure Setting − Mach Number
− BARO Altitude Rate − Track Angle (TRK) Rate Lower ATC Antennas
− Inertial Vertical Speed − True TRK
− Indicated Airspeed (IAS) − Magnetic Heading
− True Airspeed (TAS) − Roll Angle
− Groundspeed − Set Altitude
The ATC XPDR system can also supply surveillance of TCAS installations on adjacent aircraft.
The ATCRBS ground station uses a rotational antenna to transmit signals to the aircraft. The ATC XPDR system receives
the signals and sends signals that contain data about aircraft distance, bearing, altitude, and identity to the ground station.
When the ATCRBS ground station receives a signal from an aircraft, the ground station uses the elapsed time of the
signal to calculate the distance of the aircraft. The angle at which the rotational antenna receives the signal gives the
azimuth of the aircraft.
Components
The ATC XPDR modules (105NR)/(205NR) are installed in the Modular Radio Cabinets (MRC) (101NZ)/(201NZ). The
antennas that follow are installed on the external fuselage of the aircraft:
− ATC 1 Upper Antenna (L2205NR)
− ATC 2 Upper Antenna (R2205NR)
− ATC 1 Lower Antenna (L2305NR)
− ATC 2 Lower Antenna (R2305NR)
ATC Antennas
The ATC antenna is a blade-type, vertically polarized antenna. It has a frequency range of 960 to 1220 MHz. Two ATC
antennas are installed on the forward fuselage, one on the top and one on the bottom. Each XPDR module connects to an
antenna on the top and to an antenna on the bottom through an N-type connector.

show monitor errors that do not show in the standard log.
Each XPDR module contains an L-band transmitter, an L–band receiver, a processor/interface, and a power
supply/modulator. The L-band receiver receives interrogations from the antennas in the form of pulsed Radio Frequencies
(RF) at 1030 MHz. The receiver changes the pulsed RF to a 60-MHz Intermediate Frequency (IF) and sends it to the
video receiver.
The transmitter peak power function does not let the transmitted power of each pulse at the unit connector be less than
250 watts (24 dBw) and not more than 1000 watts (30 dBw). Full power is available 1 second after the system is
energized. Damage to the transmitter does not occur if an accidental short occurs or if the antenna connector stays open.
The transmitter transmits on a carrier frequency of 1090 ± 0.5 MHz.
The transmitter transmits Mode S squitters alternately from each of the two antennas. The squitter signal is transmitted at
random intervals that are uniformly distributed over the range of 0.8 to 1.2 seconds, unless one of the conditions that
follow occurs:
− The scheduled squitter is not sent immediately if a reply in response to the interrogation is necessary
− The scheduled squitter is not sent immediately if a mutual suppression interface is active
− The scheduled squitter is not sent immediately if the XPDR is in a transaction cycle
The L–band receiver senses pulse and Differential Phase Shift Keying (DPSK) data from the 60-MHz IF signal. The
processor/interface function reads the video and DPSK data from the video receiver and supplies digital reply signals. A
microprocessor and a custom Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), with the name RF or Mode S ASIC, controls
most of the signal movement.
The receiver has an automatic antenna selection function. The function sets one of the two antennas from the relative
strengths of the sensed interrogation signals, when both channels receive the same valid interrogation or pulse pair at the
same time. The function sets an antenna and changes after one of the signals that follow is received:
− The P3 pulse of a P1-P3 pulse pair that shows an ATCRBS/Mode S all-call interrogation
− The P2 pulse of a P1-P2 pulse pair that shows a possible Mode S preamble
− The first microsecond of P6 of a Mode S interrogation
− A complete, error-free Mode S interrogation
The antenna selection function uses the second antenna to receive the last part of the interrogation and, if necessary, to
transmit the Mode S or ATCRBS reply.

NOTES:
Operation (Continued)
ATC XPDR Module Operation with TCAS
The XPDR module supplies the data and control to the TCAS computer through an Aeronautical Radio, Inc. (ARINC) 429
data bus interface to the NIM. In Mode S, the XPDR modules operate with the TCAS computer to coordinate traffic
avoidance movements with other aircraft that have the TCAS installed to prevent collisions. The RF receiver in the XPDR
module automatically finds the best signal from the ATC antennas.
The XPDR module sends an ATC XPDR code to other aircraft that have the TCAS installed. When the XPDR module
receives a reply code from an aircraft that has TCAS installed, the data is sent to the TCAS computer through the ARINC
429 data bus.
The TCAS computer monitors for intruder aircraft and the flight path of each intruder aircraft for possible collision
conditions. When the TCAS computer finds an intruder aircraft, the TCAS supplies a TA of the best possible vertical
avoidance maneuver for the aircraft to prevent the collision. The TCAS computer uses data from the XPDR module to
calculate the necessary aircraft TA.
The TAs show as traffic symbols on the TCAS and Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS) window of each
PFD. The traffic and terrain window supplies a close-up and de-cluttered display of TCAS and TAWS data. The range of
the TCAS and TAWS window does not change for TCAS data.
The traffic symbols can also show on the Integrated Navigation (INAV) window of each Multifunction Display (MFD) when
the "Traffic" check box selection on the INAV control bar is made. Use the data set knob on the CCD to adjust the range
for the TCAS display on the INAV window.
Each traffic symbol shows at the range and bearing of the intruder aircraft. If the range of an RA or a TA symbol is outside
the range of the TCAS display, only half of the symbol shows along the edge of the TCAS display. A maximum of 32
traffic symbols can show on the TCAS display.
An up or a down arrow points in the direction of the vertical speed of the intruder aircraft. The arrow shows to the right of
the traffic symbol if the intruder aircraft increases () or decreases () its altitude at a rate that is more than
500 feet/minute. The arrow shows in the same color as the aircraft symbol.
The no-bearing intruder aircraft data shows in the lower left and right corners of the TCAS display on the INAV window.
The no-bearing data shows a traffic classification annunciation, a range indication, an altitude indication, and a vertical
speed symbol. The TCAS automatically prioritizes the most important no-bearing intruder aircraft into the first two no-
bearing intruder parameters. The type of intruder causes the data to show in red or amber.

Independent Position Determining
GENERAL - INDEPENDENT POSITION DETERMINING NOTES:
Overview
The independent position determining uses equipment other than ground stations and/or orbital satellites to identify the
aircraft's position. The independent position determining system has the subsystems that follow:
− Weather Radar (WXR) System
− Radar Altimeter System
− Traffic/Collision Avoidance System (TCAS)
− Lightning Sensor System (LSS)
WXR System
The WXR system identifies the location and intensity of rain, hail, and turbulence in the aircraft flight path, which gives the
pilot a visual indication. The WXR system also identifies the contour of the ground (terrain) with a Ground-Map (GMAP)
function.
TCAS
The TCAS system supplies basic surveillance functions that monitor for aircraft identification codes transmitted by
adjacent aircraft to prevent collisions.
LSS
The LSS finds the visible and high-energy invisible electromagnetic and electrostatic discharges (lightning) that occur
around the aircraft. The LSS calculates the location and vertical lightning strike-rate for a maximum of 50 thunderstorms.

WEATHER RADAR (WXR) SYSTEM
Overview
The Weather Radar (WXR) system identifies the location and intensity of rain, hail, and turbulence in the aircraft flight
path, which gives the pilot a visual indication. The WXR system also identifies the contour of the ground (terrain) with a
Ground-Map (GMAP) function.
The WXR system is an integrated Receiver Transmitter Antenna (RTA) system. The WXR system operates at 9375 MHz
(±25 MHz) and has a maximum range of 300 NM.
The RTA gives mode, range, and tilt signals to each Modular Avionics Unit (MAU) (101FY)/(201FY) on two control buses.
The RTA sends changed data to each Multifunction Display Unit (MDU) (M101FD)/(201FD) and Primary Display Unit
(PDU) (L101FD)/(R101FD)(R101FD) on two picture buses.
The Inertial Reference System (IRS) puts in antenna stabilization data for the RTA in an Aeronautical Radio, Inc. (ARINC)
429 data format. The IRS also sends True Airspeed (TAS) data to the turbulence processors in the RTA.

INAV window shows which WXR controls the range. The INAV window does not have any control. Both MDUs have the
same WX data and image. The MDUs are not independent. In the GMAP mode, the flat plate antenna tilts downward until the WXR display shows the satisfactory amount of terrain
below and in front of the aircraft. The flat plate antenna receives the ground reflections. The receiver-transmitter unit
processes this ground data to identify the different contours of the terrain.
In the WX mode, the receiver-transmitter unit processes weather reflections received by the flat plate antenna. The
receiver-transmitter unit shows the weather reflections on the WXR display. Different video levels identify the intensity of
the weather conditions. Video levels 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 show as green (lowest intensity), yellow, red, and magenta (highest
intensity). Video level 0 shows as a black screen because of weak or no returns.
In the GMAP mode, the receiver-transmitter unit processes the ground reflections received by the flat plate antenna. The
receiver-transmitter unit uses this ground map data to identify the different contours of the terrain. The receiver-transmitter
unit shows the ground reflections on the WXR display. The increased intensity of the ground reflections shows in four
colors (in sequence of height): black (lowest), cyan, yellow, and magenta (highest).

WEATHER RADAR (WXR) SYSTEM (CONTINUED)
Operation (Continued)
The WX controller function transmits data to the RTA through the Modular Avionics Units (MAU) (902FQ and 903FQ) and
an SCI bus. When you make a mode selection, the MFD sends the data to the MAUs on the Avionics Standard
Communication Bus, Version D (ASCB-D). The MAUs send the mode selection data to the RTA on a control bus to
engage the mode in the receiver transmitter. The RTA gives mode, range, and tilt signals to the MAUs on two control
buses. The RTA sends changed data to the MFDs and PFDs on two picture buses. The Inertial Reference System (IRS)
puts in antenna stabilization data for the RTA in an Aeronautical Radio, Inc. (ARINC) 429 data format. The Air Data
System (ADS) sends True Airspeed (TAS) data to the turbulence processors in the RTA. The REACT override signal is
grounded so that the selection of the REACT mode on the WX controller overrides the gain control settings. This applies a
preset gain to the RTA.
Roll Offset
The roll offset function supplies accurate compensation of the antenna roll to stop the effects of small errors in the radar
installation. This helps prevent incorrect ground return signals. To engage the roll offset mode, set one WXR controller to
the "OFF" position and the other to the "ON" position. Push the "SECT" button on the WXR controller that is in the "ON"
position, and the "SHIFT" key on the MKB at the same time. Set the WXR controller to the "GAIN" position and turn the
WXR control knob on the MKB to adjust the gain.
To stop the roll offset mode, move the WXR controller out of the "GAIN" position. Make a selection of the "STAB" soft key
from the "WX/LSS/TAWS" tab on the sensors window.
Test Mode
The RTA has a self-test mode that is engaged through the test synoptic page on the MDU. In the self-test mode, a special Figure 98
test pattern shows on the HSI and the INAV window. The test pattern supplies a series of green / yellow/ red/ cyan WXR Test Patterns on HSI: Right/Left Sweeps

#1 Radio Altimeter
#2 Radio Altimeter
RADIO ALTIMETERS
Overview
The radar altimeter system operates over large differences in terrain, weather conditions, and aircraft attitude to calculate Radar Altimeter Antennas
the aircraft altitude during approach and landing. The system has a maximum range of 2500 ft in altitude.
The two Radar altimeters provide the crew with exact distance to ground information when the airplane is within 2500 feet
or less of the ground. They also provide data to the EGPWS, to the FD for approach mode (glideslope), to the TCAS
(mode selection, the TCAS is put in TA only mode when below 1000 foot) and to the FBW.
Components
Radar Altimeter Receiver/Transmitters (101NP)/(1101NP)
The radar altimeter receiver/transmitter contains the power supply, transmit and receive circuits, and the timing circuits to
calculate the aircraft altitude. The radar altimeter receiver/transmitter 1 receives power from the aircraft 28 V DC bus
through the LH rear Secondary Power Distribution Box (SPDB). The radar altimeter receiver/transmitter 2 receives power
from the aircraft 28 V DC bus through the RH front SPDB. The radar altimeter receiver/transmitter transmits and receives
frequency-modulated continuous wave signals through the radar altimeter antennas. The radar altimeter
receiver/transmitter measures the time interval between the transmitted and received signals to calculate the aircraft
altitude.
The transmitter signals are modulated at 20 Hz/ns. The speed of a radar frequency wave through space is 1 nanosecond
per radar foot. A radar foot is completed in 2 ns. In 2 ns, the transmitter frequency-modulated continuous wave signal has
changed by 40 Hz. When the transmitted output is applied to the transmitter antenna, a sample of the output is sent to the
receiver. The received signal is changed to a DC analog voltage, which is in proportion to the aircraft altitude (40 Hertz
Radar Altimeter System Configuration Module (301NP)
per foot of altitude). The radar altimeter receiver/transmitter has a calibration switch (SW 1) recessed on the front panel.
The switch is used to calibrate the unit to 0 ft or the 0-ft offset programmed into the configuration module.

The radar altimeter system is energized before takeoff. During the flight, it monitors the aircraft altitude up to the maximum
range of the system. The radar altimeter system indicates when the aircraft reaches altitude. The radar altimeter system
also shows the ground separation and climb conditions during night or instrument takeoffs, and the ground clearance
during approaches. The radar altimeter receiver/transmitters send digital radar altitude data to the Modular Avionics Unit
(MAU) through an Aeronautical Radio, Inc. (ARINC)-429 data bus. The MAU changes the digital radar altitude data to a
format that shows on the pilot and copilot PDU. Each PDU shows the radar altitude data as a digital display in the Attitude
Director Indicator (ADI) sphere.
The radar altimeter receiver/transmitters supply the radar altitude data to each MAU (101FY)/(101FY) for both PDUs.
The radar altimeter system connects with the Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) transmitting the radar
altimeter data on the ARINC-429 bus. The TCAS uses the radar altitude to prevent the Resolution Advisory (RA).
The radar altimeter system connects with the Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning-System (EGPWS) on the Avionics
Standard-Communication Bus, Version D (ASCB-D). The radar altitude data or ground profile change is a key parameter
for the EGPWS. Figure 105
Test Synoptic Page
The radar altimeter system supplies radar altitude data to the Digital Flight Data Recorder (DFDR) on the ARINC-429 bus.
The radar altitude is one of the mandatory parameters that you must record.
The radio altitude digits will be displayed in green text with black background with the range of –20 to +2500 feet on the
ADI. For radio altitude less than –20 feet, the display remains at –20 feet. For radio altitude greater than +2500 feet, the
display is removed. When the data is an analog value under 2500 ft is invalid or the discrete signal is deemed invalid, the
digital readout is removed and “RA” failure annunciation with white text and red background will be displayed.
If there is a miscompare on radio altitude, the miscompare annunciation will be displayed on the ADI’s. The source of the
RA data for a particular ADI is located on the altitude tape.
Power on Built-In-Tests
A power-on Built-In Test (BIT) starts when the radar altimeter system has been energized.
Tests Synoptic
Make a selection of the “TEST” tab on the synoptic page to show the “TEST” synoptic page on the MDU. Make a selection
of the “RAD ALT” soft key on the “TEST” synoptic page and push and momentarily hold the enter pushbutton on the CCD
to start the test. Check that the radio altimeter digital readout on the ADI shows the same radio altimeter value for a few
seconds. Make sure that a white “RA” annunciation shows on a red background on the ADI.
Release the enter pushbutton on the CCD, and monitor the radio altimeter readout on the ADI to make sure that the
readout value decreases from 50 FT to 0 FT. The radio altimeter readout on the ADI reads 0 FT for normal operation
when the aircraft is on the ground.
Verify that the "NAV: RADALT 1+2 FAIL" CAS message does not show on the PDUs and there are no fault messages
that follow do not show under the “FAULT” tab on the “STAT” page:

The LSS gets data in a 360-degree area around the aircraft, even in the Standby (STBY) mode. Power is always applied
to the LSS, so that lightning data can always show.
Components
Lightning Sensor Processor
The lightning sensor processor (2103NP) controls the LSS. The LSS only operates as a receiver, it does not transmit. The
LSS operation is safe on the ground, even in a congested ramp area. You can see weather in a 360-degree radius around
the aircraft before the aircraft takes off. The precipitation data from the Weather Radar system (WXR) and/or lightning
data from the LSS can show at the same time.
The E-field sensor is the most sensitive to vertical E-fields. Both E-field and H-field signals help the lightning sensor
processor calculate the range of the lightning discharge.
The LSS antenna is a low profile, teardrop-shaped antenna. The antenna is encapsulated and cannot be repaired. Lightning System Processor
The antenna contains crossed, H-field loop sensors and an E-field sensor. The H-field loop sensors are HN and HW. The
HN sensor is the most sensitive to signals from ahead or behind the aircraft. The HW sensor is the most sensitive to
signals from the left and right of the aircraft.
The E-field sensor is the most sensitive to vertical E-fields. Both E-field and H-field signals help the lightning sensor
processor calculate the range of the lightning discharge.
Preamplifiers are built into the antenna to prevent noise interference from the aircraft wiring. The lightning sensor
processor supplies the 12 VDC power for the preamplifiers.
The antenna also contains a test loop. In the test mode, a simulated lightning signal is sent to the loop that connects the
E-field and H-field sensors of the antenna. The test mode gives an indication of the operation of the antenna, its
preamplifiers, and the lightning sensor processor cables.

The circular area changes as the range of the lightning strikes (targets) change. As a storm moves along the ground, the
location of the lightning symbol moves to agree with the storm position. All displays are stabilized for both heading and
velocity to track lightning activity accurately. The lightning symbol stays over the same ground position as the aircraft
moves. This function is known as geographic stabilization.

The TCAS cannot monitor an aircraft that does not have a transponder.
The TCAS uses the aircraft transponder to monitor a 3 dimensional area around the aircraft. This 3 dimensional area
contains the warning area, the caution area and the collision area. If other aircraft with transponders go near this area, the
TCAS uses interrogations from these aircraft to calculate the flight route and the predicted intersection point. The TCAS
gives advisory indications and warnings on the LH Primary Display Units (PDU) (L101FD)/RH PDU (R101FD) through the
EASy avionics system.
The radio management system controls all the TCAS functions through an interface with the ATC XPDR system. The
TCAS detects unsafe traffic conflicts with other airplanes and assists the crew member in avoiding intruders inside a
protected airspace. This is done by interrogating the surrounding airplane transponders.
If the intruding airplane is also equipped with a TCAS II compatible system, the two systems can communicate their
mutual intentions through the Mode S transponders. The coordinated advisories that result allow the two airplanes to
execute complementary avoidance maneuvers.

Operation TCAS Modes
TCAS System Interfaces Mode Description
The TCAS transceiver (103NP) receives and transmits discrete data and digital data. For the digital data, the TCAS
transceiver (103NP) uses the ARINC 429 links. These ARINC 429 links communicate with ARINC 735A interfaces. The This mode gives the maximum protection. In this mode, the TCAS provides all the usual RA symbols, TA
TA/RA
symbols and other indications. The TCAS can issue both TA and RA alerts.

Attitude and Heading System Overview
ATTITUDE AND HEADING NOTES:
Overview
The attitude and heading system uses magnetic or inertial forces to measure and give the attitude and direction of the
aircraft. The attitude and heading system has the subsystems that follow:
− Inertial Reference System (IRS)
− Air Data Attitude and Heading Reference System (ADAHRS)
− Electronic Stand-By Indicator System
IRS
The aircraft uses three inertial reference units (IRU) (102NH/202NH/302NH). The IRUs calculate and supply the various
flight parameters (such as attitude and heading) to the systems that follow:
− Autopilot
− Heads Up Display (HUD)
− Satellite Communication (SATCOM)
− Weather Radar (WXR)
− Flight display and management systems
ADAHRS
The ADAHRS supplies attitude, heading, and acceleration data through the Aeronautical Radio, Inc. (ARINC) 429 bus to
the electronic stand-by indicator (501FD) and the Fly By Wire (FBW) module (9510CK).

IRU Bay
The IRS supplies Inertial Reference (IR) data to the systems that follow:
− Flight Management System (FMS)
− Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS)
− Heads Up Display (HUD)
− Satellite Communication (SATCOM)
− Weather Radar (WXR)
− Flight Data Recorder (FDR) system
This data shows on each Primary Display Unit (PDU) (L101FD) / (R101FD).continuously calculates and outputs body
frame, local level frame, and earth frame parameters.
Components
IRU 1 (102NH) / IRU 2 (202NH) / IRU 3 (302NH)
Each IRU contains three ring-laser gyros and three force-rebalance accelerometers to measure the inertial movement of
the aircraft. These internal sensors, along with high-speed microprocessors, let the IRU keep a stable platform
mathematically, rather than mechanically. The ring-laser gyros measure angular rates around the longitudinal, lateral, and
vertical axes (pitch, roll, and yaw). The force-rebalance accelerometers measure linear acceleration along the same three
axes. The IRU uses this data to calculate the attitude and true heading data, present position, inertial velocity vectors,
angular rates, and linear accelerations.
IRS 1 Configuration Module (1102NH) / IRS 2 Configuration Module (1202NH) / IRS 3 Configuration Module
(1302NH)
The IRS configuration module is a self-contained Non Volatile Memory (NVM) device that is installed externally from the
IRU. The configuration module keeps program pin discrete data, mount misalignment Euler angles, aircraft type and serial
number, and configuration-specific option selections (the position of the IRS and the alignment error between the IRU
mounting tray and the aircraft reference axes).
In order to verify the integrity of the data stored in the APM, a CRC is stored along with the configuration data and tray
calibration data calculated on the contents of the APM. The Micro IRU verifies the CRC of the contents of the APM prior to
utilizing the data read from the device. Failure of the CRC check is a “critical fault”. At power-up, the IRU reads its
configuration file in order to suppress alignment error of the IRU mounting tray. Thus, no accurate adjusting of the
mounting tray is required for its installation on the aircraft.

Operation
The ADS calculates the altitude, altitude rate, and True Airspeed (TAS) parameters and sends this data to the generic I/O
module in each MAU. The generic I/O module sends this data to each IRU through a high-speed ARINC 429 general-
purpose bus. The IRU uses these air data parameters to calculate the Vertical Speed (VS) and wind data parameters.
The IRU receives the input data that follows:
− FMS synchronization data for the IR function
− GPS initialization data for the global positioning function
− Read/write data (aircraft serial number, alignment parameters, and performance parameters) from a Serial Peripheral
Interface (SPI) to its configuration module
The generic I/O module sends FMS and GPS initialization data to the IRU through high-speed ARINC 429 general-
purpose buses. If more than one source supplies data at the same time, the IRU accepts the data in the sequence that
follows:
− FMS 1
− FMS 2
− FMS 3
− GPS 1
− GPS 2
The GPS function in VIDL/G module (103NR)/(203NR) in each Modular Radio Cabinet (MRC) supplies a Universal Time
Coordinate (UTC) for the IRU. The VIDL/G module sends the UTC to the Network Interface Module (NIM). The NIM sends
the UTC on an RS-422 data bus to each IRU. The IRU uses the UTC data as a maintenance aid. The IRU transmits IR
and hybrid global positioning data on high-speed ARINC 429 data buses to each generic I/O module. The generic I/O
module sends this data on the backplane to the FMS and the Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System (EGPWS).
The generic I/O module sends this data on the backplane to the Network Interface Controller (NIC) module. The NIC
module sends the data on the Avionics Standard Communication Bus, Version D (ASCB-D) digital bus to the other
avionics systems that use IR data.
The IRU sends IR data on high-speed ARINC 429 data buses to the systems that follow:
− Fly-By-Wire (FBW) System
− Weather Radar
− Heads-Up Display (HUD) System
− Satellite Communication (SATCOM) System

IR NAV Mode
When the IRS goes into the Navigation mode, it stays in this mode until the IRS goes off. To go back into the Attitude
mode, the IRS must go through the Power-up mode. The IRS can stay in the Navigation mode for up to 18 h. The Time in
Navigation shows on the IRU Status Page.
The IRU outputs do not show an unexpected discontinuity when the aircraft operates in the Polar Regions or goes across
the equators, 0.0 degrees longitude, or E-W 180.0 degrees longitude.
If the pitch angle is more than 85 degrees nose up or 85 degrees nose down, the IRU keeps the roll and heading outputs
at the value calculated last and sets the roll attitude rate to zero.
During the Navigation mode, the IRU algebraically adds the calculated magnetic variation from a magnetic variation
topographical map to true heading and true track to supply the magnetic heading and track angle magnetic. The IRU does
not calculate the magnetic heading and magnetic track angle at latitudes below 82 degrees latitude South, above 82
degrees latitude North, and within both the north and south magnetic polar cutout regions fig. 13.
IR Attitude Mode
The Attitude mode is used to get pitch and roll attitudes quickly after the Power-up mode completes. The Attitude mode
operates at the same time as the Alignment modes (either Stationary Alignment or AIM). The Attitude mode has the two
submodes that follow:
− Reversionary Attitude Mode
− Align in Motion Attitude Mode

resets the number of special satellite blocks to zero when it changes active channels. The IRU resets the number of
special satellite blocks to zero when there is a 1-second delay between satellite measurement blocks.
Global Positioning Power-On Mode
In the global positioning power-on mode, the IRU starts the system and program variables. Other modes cannot be on
during the global positioning power-on mode. The global positioning power-on mode continues for less than 30 seconds. The IRU accepts the pressure altitude and IR trajectory data that is necessary for the kalman filter. The data must be new.
The IRU goes into the global positioning power-on mode when one of the conditions that follow occurs: If the trajectory data is not new but the IR section is in the global positioning NAV mode, the IRU sets a critical BIT fault. If
the pressure altitude data is not new, the IRU uses the most recent correct altitude data in the hybrid filter calculations.

The IRU can also go into the global positioning NAV mode from the global positioning altitude-aiding/clock-coasting mode
when the IRU receives at least four unique satellite measurement blocks. In the global positioning NAV mode, the IRU
supplies hybrid data and status outputs. The IRU uses only one GPS data bus as the active channel to receive
autonomous, satellite measurement, and status data to transmit again and make hybrid kalman filter calculations.
The IRU uses a kalman filter to supply corrected hybrid NAV outputs. The data comes from IR trajectories, GPS satellite
measurements, and ADS pressure altitude inputs. The IRU stays in the global positioning NAV mode if all of the
conditions that follow occur:
− Four or more unique satellites are available (if less than four satellites are used in the hybrid kalman filter update, the
IRU changes to the global positioning altitude-aiding/clock-coasting mode),
− The IR section is in the global positioning NAV mode (if the IR section changes from the global positioning NAV mode
to another mode, the GPS section changes back to the global positioning acquisition mode),
− A GPS critical fault is not found (if a GPS critical fault is found, the IRU goes into the global positioning fault mode).

AHRS System Interconnections
ATTITUDE AND HEADING REFERENCE SYSTEM (AHRS)
ADAHRS Location
Overview
The AHRS is a dual-channel system. The AHRS contains:
− Air Data Attitude Heading Reference System (ADAHRS) unit (2102NH)
− Magnetometer (3102NH)
− Two ADAHRS configuration modules (2302NH)/(2402NH), one for each channel
The AHRS supplies attitude, heading, air, and acceleration data through the Aeronautical Radio, Inc. (ARINC) 429 data
bus to the electronic stand-by indicator system
Components
ADAHRS Unit
The ADAHRS unit (2102NH) is a two-channel unit with separate boards for each channel. The two channels are the same
and operate independently of each other. Each channel has an ADAHRS configuration module (2302NH)/(2402NH).
Micro Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) technology replaces conventional gyro technology and supplies attitude and
heading reference data for the pilot, navigation, and control use. The basic inertial output parameters follow:
− Three Euler Attitudes and Rates
− Three Aircraft-Body Rates
− Three Linear Accelerations
− Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) Status

The ADAHRS unit has two independent power supplies, one for each channel. The operation range is between 15 V DC
and 34 V DC.
Each AHRS channel operates with one high-speed ARINC 429 transmitter bus and one high-speed ARINC 429 receiver
bus. The high-speed transmitter bus has three output ports that are the same. Each port can control a minimum of six
loads. Each port transmits all data related to the AHRS. The receiver bus has three input ports. The first input port
connects to the Air Data System (ADS) 3 and ADS4 for air data. The second input port connects to the Global Positioning
System (GPS) for date and time data (time stamp for Fault records). The third input port is not used.

The flight crew uses the electronic stand-by indicator system if the Primary Display Units (L101FD)/(R101FD) cannot be
used. In combination with air data inputs from the aircraft Air Data Smart Probes (ADSP) and precision landing data from
the VIDL-G module, the Standby system provides the flight crew with full-time indication of: aircraft attitude, heading,
airspeed, altitude, localizer deviation, glideslope deviation, flight path vector, and slip/skid indication.
Components
Electronic Stand-by Indicator
The electronic stand-by indicator (501FD) supplies the flight crew with full-time indication of aircraft attitude, heading, air
data, Instrument Landing System (ILS) data, and other miscellaneous indications. The display is an Active Matrix Liquid
Crystal Display (AMLCD), with a 57.66 mm (2.27 in) by 57.66 mm (2.27 in) active viewable area. The AMLCD uses a 4-
pixel arrangement, with a resolution of 240 x 240.
The electronic stand-by indicator uses Light Emitting Diodes (LED) for the display backlight. If an LED or a drive circuit
does not operate satisfactorily, part of the backlight can still operate. The backlight includes a diffuse integrating cavity
and a parabolic reflector that collects rear projected light to supply the best optical efficiency and uniformity.
The electronic stand-by indicator operates from 28 V DC, with a maximum power requirement of 25 W. This does not
include the integral heaters for the lamp and the display. At low operational temperatures during warm-up, the electronic
stand-by indicator uses up to 40 W for short periods of time.

The electronic stand-by indicator system uses Aeronautical Radio, Inc. (ARINC) 429 buses to receive the AHRS data and
precision ILS data. The BARO correction is done directly within the electronic stand-by indicator system. The ARINC 429
buses are as follows:
− Two ARINC 429 high-speed receivers for attitude and heading data
− Two ARINC 429 high-speed receivers for air data
− One ARINC 429 low-speed receiver for ILS data
− One ARINC 429 low-speed transmitter to transmit maintenance data to the Central Maintenance Computer (CMC)
− One ARINC 429 low-speed receiver to maintenance protocols from the CMC
− Eight spare ground/open discrete inputs
Magnetometer
The magnetometer (3102NH) supplies a single source of magnetic heading for each ADAHRS channel.

Heading Display
ELECTRONIC STANDBY INDICATOR SYSTEM (CONTINUED)
Operation (Continued)
Heading Tape
The heading tape scale shows as a tape that moves across the bottom of the display. The heading tape scale shows ±30°
to each side of the aircraft heading. Tick marks show at every 5°. At every 10°, a numeric value shows. This numeric
value shows the two most significant digits of the compass angle. For example "01" means 10° from north, and "34"
means 340° from north.
The heading readout has three digits. The data shows from 1° to 360° with a resolution of 1°. The top center part of the
outline comes to a point and is a reference for the heading tape symbol.
ILS Indications
The ILS indications only show when an ILS frequency is tuned on the navigation radio and applicable ILS data is received.
The ILS mode of operation is either ILS or back course (B/C). When the ILS mode of operation is B/C, the characters
"B/C" show on the bottom right side of the display. When the ILS mode of operation is ILS no mode of operation shows.
The localizer deviation scale has two white open dots with a center white tick mark. The localizer deviation scale shows at
the bottom center of the attitude display area. The localizer deviation scale supplies a reference for the localizer deviation
pointer.
The localizer deviation pointer shows as a green arrow that points down to the localizer deviation scale. During forward
course operation, a positive deviation moves the pointer to the right of center. A negative deviation moves the pointer to
the left of center. During back course operation, a positive deviation moves the pointer to the left of center. A negative
deviation moves the pointer to the right of center. With zero deviation, the pointer shows at the center and is aligned with
the white tick mark of the localizer deviation scale and the center of the aircraft symbol.
If the localizer deviation data is not correct, the localizer deviation scale does not show. A white "LOC" fail annunciation
shows in a red box.
The glideslope deviation scale has four white open dots on the right side of the indicator to the left of the altitude tape. The
glideslope deviation scale supplies a reverence for the glideslope deviation pointer (10-fig. 5). The scale is aligned with
the center of the aircraft symbol.
The glideslope deviation pointer is a green arrow that points right to the glideslope deviation scale. A positive deviation
moves the pointer down. A negative deviation moves the pointer up. With zero deviation, the pointer is aligned with the
center of the altitude readout and the center of the aircraft symbol.
If the glideslope deviation data is not correct, the glideslope deviation scale and the glideslope deviation pointer do not
show. A white "G/S” fail annunciation shows in a red box
If the aircraft is in the ILS mode, each marker beacon type shows in the same location in the top right corner of the
attitude display above the roll scale. The marker beacons have the sequence of importance that follows: inner, middle,
and outer. When a transition to a new marker beacon occurs, the marker beacon indication flashes for 15 seconds at a
rate of 2 Hz. For example, if a transition from no marker beacon to the outer marker occurs, the white "OM" indication
shows and flashes for 15 s. If a transition from the outer marker to the middle marker occurs, the white "MM" indication
replaces the white "OM" indication and flashes for 15 s.

HEAD-UP GUIDANCE SYSTEM
Overview
The Rockwell Collins Model 5860 Head-up Guidance System (HGS®) installed on the Falcon 7X is a fail-passive display
system that presents flight information including attitude, altitude, airspeed, navigational data, flight path data, and
guidance symbology. The HGS is an electronic and optical system that displays information in the pilot’s forward field of
view. The HGS focuses the display at optical infinity and presents flight and navigational data conformal to the real world.
This allows the pilot to see relative flight information without looking down or having to refocus his eyes.
The Head-Up Guidance System (HGS) is an electronic and optical system that generates and displays information in the
pilot's forward field of view. The displayed information is derived from the aircraft instruments and sensor data. The HGS
provides information during all phases of flight.

HGS Combiner (208NS)
The HGS combiner (208NS) is an optical element which receives the flight symbology projected by the HGS overhead
unit (108NS). It combines the flight symbology with the pilot's view through the aircraft windscreen. The HGS combiner
(208NS) contains:
− Combiner Optical Element
− Combiner Alignment Detector
− Ambient Light Sensor
− Stow Lever
− Brightness Controls
− Backlight Plate
NOTE: When the aircraft is not equipped with head-up guidance system, a dummy computer has to be installed
in place of the HGS computer (408NS).

NOTE: Stow the HGS combiner from the operating position only. Damage to the HGS combiner will occur if you
attempt to stow the HGS combiner from any position other than the operating position.
NOTE: The “VIDEO CONTRAST” knob is not used.
When the “HUD confirm” button is selected on the “SID” tab, the HGS updates its data using the data of the ”Loc Trk” and
the “Runway length” areas of the “SID” tab. When the “HUD confirm” button is selected on the “STAR/App” tab, the HGS
updates its data using the data of the “Runway length” “Glide” “, Loc Trk” and the ”Elev” areas of the “STAR/App” tab. This
enables the HGS to show the synthetic runway for the landing.
The HGS also provides display functions for Unusual Attitude, Failure Flags, Comparator Flags, Reversion Annunciations,
Advisories and Annunciations The symbology shows on the HGS combiner (208NS) optical element. The HGS symbology
enables the pilot to monitor the aircraft during all flight phases, whether being manually flown or when using the autopilot.

The FMS also supplies estimates of time and remaining fuel along the flight plan. The FMS uses this data for high-
accuracy, long-range, LNAV and VNAV functions along the flight plan. To do these functions, the FMS receives and
compares the data from many different sensors to find the most accurate aircraft position data. The FMS sends its control
outputs to the Autopilot (AP) and Autothrottle (AT) systems to control the lateral and vertical movements and speed of the
aircraft along the flight plan. The FMS supplies the flight plan and status data to the Central Display System (CDS) for the
cockpit display and control devices.

FMS System Architecture
FLIGHT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (CONTINUED)
Operation As FMS 1 is the master FMS:
During normal operation: − The pilot entries from the upper and lower MDU (red arrows) are directed to FMS 1
− FMS1 is used for the LH PDU − FMS 1 feeds FMS 2, FMS 3, left PDU and both MDUs (blue arrows)
− FMS2 is used for the RH PDU − FMS 2 feeds right PDU (blue arrow)
FMS3 will be used after manual reversion. One of the FMS is used as the reference for: The 3 FMS interact with GPS, IRS and the sensors (blue double-arrows) regardless of which FMS is the master FMS.
Reversion to other FMS is possible via the FMS reversion pushbuttons on the Reversion Panel (RP).

FMS use valid GPS data to compute the FMS position. Each FMS contains three types of database:
− Navigation Database (NAV DATABASE)
The Init tab provides data relevant to the aircraft, FMS software, and database configuration and validity. Verify the validity
− Performance Database (AIRCRAFT DATABASE)
of these data. The Init tab also provides the "Current Position" of the master FMS. This position needs to be initialized.
− User Database (CUSTOM DATABASE)
In order to initialize FMS "Current Position", click on the Update FMS Position soft key. A dialog box appears. The dialog
Each FMS uses the following hardware resources: box displays a column of radio buttons with corresponding available geographic positions, for:
− Processor card for FMS functions − The different GPS and IRS sensors
− Advanced Graphics Modules (AGM) for interface to cockpit displays, for display and functional control − Manually entered point, and closest airport from that point
− Input/Output module to interface with external systems
− Network Interface Controller (NIC) to interface with the Avionics Standard Communications Bus (ASCB-D) The sensors and/or positions selected in the column of radio buttons prior to selecting "Apply" will be used for updating
− Databases the FMS position. IRS and FMS alignment is normally performed on GPS position. Select the radio button of choice, click
− Display units (PDU / MDU) on Apply soft key. This initializes the FMS “Current Position” to positions selected.
The FMS system architecture can be understood as a single integrated navigational system supported by three FMS
functions operating either synchronized or single mode. The EASy system provides a single output to the crew for
navigation and Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS) operation. FMS functions can be considered as input systems
supporting a single flight plan on the flight deck. Due to removal of dedicated FMS Control Display Units, the master FMS
receives pilot input through the graphic interface or a keyboard. The master FMS (FMS selected on the Pilot Flying) feeds
the other FMS.
Although the system in capable of operating in single mode, it operates most efficiently in synchronized mode as continual
system crosschecks offer increased system accuracy. Each pilot can directly view guidance information provided by the
selected FMS.
The master FMS for entry of all data is the PF FMS (as determined by the PILOT SIDE pushbutton on the guidance
panel). When operating in synchronized mode, data entered either through a keyboard or graphically is distributed to
other FMS functions.
While the active flight plan is operational on the EASy flight deck, either crewmember can plan a secondary flight plan. A
secondary flight plan is activated graphically. In this example, the PILOT SIDE pushbutton is on the left side which implies
that FMS 1 is the master FMS.

Flight Deck Overview
ENHANCED GROUND PROXIMITY WARNING SYSTEM (EGPWS)
Overview
The EGPWS helps to prevent accidents caused by Controlled Flight Into Terrain (CFIT) or dangerous windshear
conditions. It also supplies terrain data through a Terrain Server Function (TSF) that shows terrain data on the Primary
Flight Displays (PFD). The EGPWS uses different aircraft parameters as inputs to apply alert algorithms. The EGPWS
then supplies aural alert messages, and visual annunciations and displays if the values are more than the alert envelope.
The EGPWS is a Line Replaceable Module (LRM) and includes the functional areas that follow:
− Basic Ground Proximity Warning
− Terrain Clearance Floor (TCF)
− Terrain/Obstacle Awareness Alerting and Warning
− TSF
− Altitude Awareness Callouts
− Excessive Bank Angle Alert
− Windshear Detection and Alert
The EGPWS module also does the auxiliary functions that follow:
− Monitors input signals
− Receives Monitor Warning Function (MWF) alert conditions and gives related annunciations
− Does Built-in Tests (BIT) and manually started self-tests
− Operates with the Central Maintenance Computer (CMC) maintenance systems when the aircraft is on the ground
The EGPWS receives inputs from these sensors and systems through the Avionics Standard Communication Bus,
Version D (ASCB-D) to monitor for dangerous terrain or windshear conditions:
− Global Positioning System (GPS)
− Inertial Reference System (IRS)
− Flight Management System (FMS)
− Air Data System (ADS)
− Radio Altimeter (RAD ALT)
− Flight Control System (FCS)
− Modular Radio Cabinet (MRC)
− Network Interface Module (NIM)
− Flap System
− Landing Gear System
− MWF

Developed for Training Purposes Falcon 7X
The terrain awareness display supplies a graphic display of the terrain or obstacles that are around the aircraft. The
EGPWS uses the sensor data inputs and its internal data base to calculate the aircraft position. The EGPWS uses this
position data to show the terrain that extends from 2000 ft below the aircraft altitude to 2000 ft above the aircraft.
The situational terrain shows in the “North Up” and “Heading Up” map formats. If the weather display shows, the
situational awareness terrain does not show, and a white "TAD-OFF" annunciation shows on the INAV window.
Three different terrain levels show on the terrain awareness display. If a terrain caution or warning condition occurs, the
traffic window automatically shows on the PDU of the pilot who controls the aircraft. Also, the INAV window changes to
the “North Up” 5 NM range and removes the different layers from the terrain awareness display, which includes airborne
weather. When the alert condition stops, the map format stays in the “North Up” 5 NM range.
The background terrain shows as different density patterns in green, yellow, or red. The density patterns and colors are
related to the situational terrain elevation. The EGPWS uses the aircraft altitude in relation to the terrain to calculate the
background display.
At low altitudes, the terrain shows in colors and patterns that relate to the vertical displacement between the terrain
elevation and the current aircraft altitude. At aircraft altitudes that are safely above the terrain for the display range, the
terrain shows independently of the aircraft altitude. The highest and lowest elevations show emphasis to supply increased
situational awareness. This increased awareness helps the pilots to navigate during an unplanned descent or off-route
deviation, or to see the terrain before a descent.

that is more than the aircraft rate of climb.
Mode 3 goes off when the EGPWS senses that sufficient altitude has been gained to be out of the T/O phase of flight.
Mode 2 has two submodes, Mode 2A and Mode 2B. The aircraft configuration makes a selection of which submode to
use. Mode 2A operates when the flaps are not in the landing position and the conditions to engage Mode 2B do not occur.
The EGPWS changes to Mode 2B when the flaps are down in the landing configuration. The change to Mode 2B also
occurs when the flaps are up, the aircraft is in an ILS approach, and the glideslope and Localizer (LOC) deviations are
less than ±2 dots.

Modes 4A and 4B
In Mode 4A or 4B, the algorithms calculate the alert and warning envelopes from the minimum approved terrain clearance
as a function of calculated airspeed.
The alert envelopes for Modes 4A and 4B start at 30 ft AGL and extend vertically to an altitude of 500 ft AGL. The alert
envelopes also extend horizontally to 190 kt for Mode 4A and 159 kt for Mode 4B. If the aircraft goes into the envelope
boundaries, you hear a "TOO LOW, GEAR" alert and see an amber "GND-PROX" annunciation in the ADI on the PDU. If
the landing gear is down, the top boundary of the alert envelope decreases to 245 ft. If the aircraft goes into the envelope
boundaries in this condition (with the flaps not in the landing configuration), you hear a "TOO LOW, FLAPS" alert and see
an amber "GND-PROX" annunciation in the ADI. Above 190 kt for Mode 4A and 159 kt for Mode 4B, the upper boundary
increases linearly with airspeed to a maximum of 1000 ft at 250 kt. If the TCF function operates or the terrain awareness
is in a state of high integrity, the upper boundary stays constant at 245 ft in Mode 4B and 500 ft in Mode 4A. You hear a
"TOO LOW, TERRAIN" aural alert if the aircraft goes into the expanded envelope. The aural and visual alerts stay on until
the aircraft goes out of the envelope.
Mode 4C
Mode 4C supplies alerts that are almost the same as those for Modes 4A and 4B for the T/O phase of flight. You hear a
"TOO LOW, TERRAIN" aural alert and see an amber "GND-PROX" annunciation in the ADI on the PDU. To make a
selection of the envelopes, the EGPWS makes the minimum approved terrain clearance agree with the radar altitude.
This causes the differences between the modes. If the aircraft radar altitude decreases to the value of the minimum terrain
clearance calculated by the EGPWS module, you hear a "TOO LOW, TERRAIN" alert.
The maximum altitude for Mode 5 is 1000 ft AGL. As a result of envelope adjustment, the maximum altitude increases at
airports that are higher than the terrain below the aircraft on approach. When the aircraft is above 500 ft AGL, glideslope
alerts occur only if the glideslope is within ±2 dots. This decreases the nuisance alerts when the aircraft is in an ILS
approach. Below 500 ft, the ILS overrides the glideslope specification. Envelope adjustment can increase the 500 ft level
so that it is 500 ft below the adjusted limit for Mode 5. To prevent a level-flight intercept problem, the vertical speed
adjusts the top limit for the glideslope alert.

Mode 6: Callouts
Mode 6 Approaching DH The conditions that follow adjust the windshear threshold:
− Air mass flightpath angle
APPROACHING MINIMUMS Approaching Minimums call out for descent below minimums setting plus 80 feet − Unusual temperature conditions in the atmosphere
− Too much lift above the approach referenced speed (Vref) during approach.
This adjustment prevents nuisance alerts caused by turbulence and supplies better detection of microburst windshear
conditions.
The EGPWS uses windshear-enable logic to find if the windshear caution or warning is correct. The radar altitude and the
bank angle change the windshear signal to prevent unwanted alerts that can be caused by aircraft turns into and away
from winds.
Windshear logic identifies the difference between the T/O and approach phases of flight. The threshold value increases
for the T/O phase of flight because of the lower performance of the aircraft during this phase.

Terrain Clearance Floor
The EGPWS module contains a data base that includes all published runways. The TCF/RFCF function only recognizes
hard-surface runways in the world that are more than or equal to 3200 ft in length. The data base contains the runway
records, which include the topographical data of the terrain around each runway. The data base includes man-made
structures around the runways that are not a threat.
The TCF function has an alert mode that adds to the Mode 4 protection. These TCF alerts are functions of the aircraft
radar altitude and distance (calculated from latitude and longitude) related to the center of the nearest runway in the data
base. The alerts include visual and aural alerts.
The TCF alert envelope has concentric circular bands that increase in height at the center point of a runway. The EGPWS
uses latitude and longitude data and the airport data base to make a selection of the runway closest to the aircraft. The
TCF alert envelope does not adjust the minimum limits for terrain clearance. Thus, the TCF alert envelope supplies alerts
even when the aircraft is configured for landing.
When the aircraft goes into the TCF alert envelope, you hear a "TOO LOW TERRAIN" aural alert. The aural alert occurs
one time when the aircraft initially goes into the alert envelope. You hear the aural alert again for each 20-percent
decrease in radar altitude from the altitude where the warning first occurred.
TCF alerts cause an amber "GND-PROX" annunciation to show in the ADI on the PDU. The annunciation stays on until
the aircraft goes out of the alert envelope.
With the improved TCF alert envelope and envelope bias factor, the alert envelope has a minimum limit of 245 ft AGL
adjacent to the runway. The envelope bias factor moves closer to the runway when more accurate aircraft position and
runway position data is available. This is usually 0.25 NM to 1 NM to supply more protection against landing short events.
The TCF function uses full and complete aircraft position and navigation data to make an analysis of the runways nearest
the aircraft. The TCF function uses this analysis to find the best possible runway destination for all alert conditions.
The RFCF alert envelope is a circular band with its center over the runway. But, different from the TCF envelope, the
RFCF envelope goes only 5 NM past the end of the runway.
For runways at a higher elevation than the terrain below the approach path, a large radar altitude can prevent usual TCF
operation. But, the aircraft can be below the runway elevation. The EGPWS subtracts the elevation of the destination
runway from the current altitude (MSL) to find the field clearance (height above the runway).
When an aircraft goes into the RFCF alert envelope, you hear an aural "TOO LOW TERRAIN" alert. The aural alert
occurs one time when the aircraft initially goes into the alert envelope. You hear the alert again for each 20-percent
decrease in radar altitude from the altitude where the warning first occurred.

communicates with the control I/O module on the MAU backplane bus to receive data inputs from the different aircraft
sensor systems. The EGPWS module uses these data inputs to perform its ground proximity warning functions. The terrain data base divides the surface of the earth into grids referenced horizontally on the geographic
(latitude/longitude) coordinate system. The terrain data base has a record of the highest terrain altitude (MSL) in each grid
area. The resolution of each grid on the terrain awareness display changes in relation to the geographic locations.

The EGPWS self-test controls the aural and visual EGPWS outputs. The self-test can only operate when the aircraft is on
the ground.
When the EGPWS test is activated, the cockpit visuals are activated and voice messages are issued to indicate what
functions are operating correctly.
If no faults exist and flaps override, G/S inhibit, Terrain inhibit, and Steep approach are not selected, the aural result of the
test would typically be:
− “GLIDE SLOPE ----PULL UP----WINDSHEAR WINDSHEAR WINDSHEAR----TERRAIN TERRAIN, PULL UP”
− However, if no valid glide slope input was present then the sequence would be : “GLIDE SLOPE INOP----PULL UP----

CENTRAL MAINTENANCE SYSTEM (CMS)
Overview The CMC module operates with the Central Maintenance System (CMS) to do the functions that follow:
The CMS manages a complete and consistent set of maintenance messages for all member systems (engines, avionics − Operate as a point of access to the maintenance data for all member systems
and A/C systems). The CMS shows maintenance messages and supplies diagnostic data. The CMS lets the user do the − Show the status of each applicable member system
functions that follow: − Show which member systems are online and operational
− Monitor the parameters in maintenance screens − Examine individual fault records for member systems
− See the system configuration − Start the BIT for each applicable member system
− See status of each member system − Do fault diagnosis
− Download reports − Start tests in the member systems
− Do tests and show the results − Start and control file transfers
− Keep records in the FHDB for the maintenance messages and CAS messages with the date, time, flight phase and
The CMS has the subsystems that follow: flight leg for each message
− Central Maintenance Computer (CMC) − Download and remove stored fault data
− Maintenance Screens − Upload software updates and maintenance data parameters
− Maintenance Messages
− Data Loading CMC Module
The onboard Data Loading System (DLS) loads the items that follow:
Central Maintenance Computer (CMC) − Data base data for the Flight Management System (FMS)
The CMC has the functions that follow: − Operational software for the member systems
− Receives parameters and fault reports from the member systems − LDI data base
− Receives Flight Deck Effects (FDE) from the Monitoring Warning Function (MWF) − Data base for the Aircraft Personality Module (APM)
− Stores fault reports in the Fault History Data Base (FHDB)
− Transmits parameters and fault reports to the user's interface The DLS is installed on the CMC module.
Data Loading System The CMC module has a LAN port that connects to the CMC-RT and the Data Management Unit (DMU) (901FP) for file
The DLS loads database data and software to the modules in the aircraft system. The DLS uses the Transfer Control transfers and data loading. There can be multiple LAN receptacles. No more than three CMC-RTs can connect with the
Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) to send source data through the Local Area CMC at one time. Only one CMC-RT can send test commands. The other CMC-RT sessions are blocked.
Network (LAN). The data–loading function operates with the configuration monitoring system to make sure that the correct
configuration is used to add data to the system. The DLS also operates closely with the Configuration Management The DMU has a Digital Video Disc (DVD)/Compact Disc Read Only Memory (CD-ROM) drive and two Personal Computer

DMU lets the DLS send data to or receive data from the CMC. The CD portion of the DMU does not operate when the
Components aircraft is in the air.
Central Maintenance Computer (CMC)
The Aircraft Diagnostic and Maintenance System (ADMS) for onboard maintenance for the avionics system looks for and The CMC does file transfers from the CMC-RT or the DMU to the ASCB-D member systems. The CMC-RT or DMU sends
records system faults. The ADMS has two components: data through the LAN to the CMC module. The file transfer procedure uses the Transfer Control Protocol/Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP) and the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) to transfer data. You can download fault data from any member system
− Central Maintenance Computer (CMC) - the central interface that is used to test the avionics systems and to see the
LRU or the CMC to the DMU media for analysis.
maintenance messages
− Aircraft Condition Monitoring System (ACMS) - collects aircraft data when system faults occur and keeps the data
You can download the full FHDB from the CMC for more analysis. You can also download maintenance data from the last
flight.
The ADMS includes the Central Maintenance Computer (CMC) (2505TC) and the Line Replaceable Units (LRU) and Line
Replaceable Modules (LRM) that are called member systems. A member system is any system installed on the aircraft
that agrees with the CMC interface requirements and sends its Built-In Test (BIT) results to the CMC. Each member
system supplies fault detection and isolation through hardware and software BITs. Each member system sends the fault
data to the CMC to be kept in the Fault History Data Base (FHDB). Maintenance messages and CAS messages are
stored in the FHDB with date, time, flight phase and flight leg data.
The CMC module is located in the Modular Avionics Unit (MAU) 2 chassis (201FY).

CENTRAL MAINTENANCE SYSTEM (CMS) (CONTINUED)
Operation The CMC shows the configuration status of applicable member systems installed on the aircraft. Each member system
sends real-time configuration data to the CMC. The CMC supplies the data to the system configuration display on the
Central Maintenance Computer (CMC)
CMC-RT or MDU. The CMC can show the configuration data that follows:
The CMC finds failures that occur in the member systems. The CMC supplies a single user interface to get access to all

Maintenance Messages
The CMC monitors the Avionics Standard Communication Bus, Version D (ASCB-D) for fault reports that the member
systems send in real time. The CMC display shows the data that follows on the MDU when the aircraft is on the ground: The CMC collects fault reports from the member systems and CAS messages from the Monitor Warning Function (MWF).
The CMC puts this data in the FHDB, along with the current state (active or inactive), flight leg, flight phase, time, date,
− Active Maintenance Message aircraft serial number, and LRU or LRM serial number. The CMC receives the fault reports from the member systems as

maintenance messages are put into groups as an indication of an internal fault, an external fault, or a probe/sensor fault.
When the aircraft is in the air, only the CMC-RT can show the CMC data.
The CMC shows the active (real time) and stored maintenance messages on the CMC-RT or MDU. The related FDE or
Air Transport Association (ATA) chapter numbers also show. The relation of the FDE to a maintenance message shows

not let you do tests when the aircraft is in the air. If a failure of the CMC occurs, data is not sent to or kept in the FHDB,
but the member systems continue to send their fault data. When the CMC comes on again the CMC stores data into the
FHDB with the timestamp of any new data. To print paper copies of the fault data in the FHDB, connect a printer to the Loadable Diagnostic Information (LDI) Data Base
LAN. The name of the maintenance system data base is the LDI data base. The ADMS uses the LDI data base as a model of
the member systems. Systems, tests, maintenance messages, and FDEs can be added, removed, or changed in the LDI
Member Systems data base. The LDI data base is not part of the CMC executable code and is not collected into the CMC. The LDI data
base is a separate file to which the CMC gets access.
The CMC operates with the three types of member system protocols that follow:
− ASCB-D
Fault Messages
− Aeronautical Radio, Inc. (ARINC) 429
The MWF shows the fault messages under the “FAULT” tab (90-fig. 5) on the “STAT” page on each MDU. The fault
messages related to the CMC module are specified in the table that follows.
The CMC does a check of the operational status of each ARINC or ASCB–D member system. The CMC sends the test
commands to the member systems to do a test when the aircraft is on the ground. You cannot get access to the system
diagnostics when the CMC is in the air. FAULT MESSAGE DESCRIPTION LATCHED
"AVC: MAINT CMPTR FAIL" A failure has occurred in the CMC system No
Each member system has a unique ID. This ID lets the CMC identify each member system. The software of the member
system ignores all commands sent by the CMC unless the CMC sends the ID of the member system with the test "AVC: MAINT CMPTR MEM FULL" The CMC memory is full. No

Aircraft Condition Monitoring Function (ACMF)
The ACMF is a software application that is installed on the CMC module in the MAU 2. The ACMF does the functions that
follow:
− Records ASCB-D parameters that are caused by an event with a timestamp,
− Records over 1000 ASCB-D parameters,
− Lets multiple applications run a single time,
− Keeps reports in the FHDB.
If the primary power is available again before 10 s, the CMC input power changes back to the primary source. The CMC
boots again and normal operation starts again. If the primary power is available after 10 s, the CMC uses the backup
battery and does a correct shutdown procedure. If CMC operation stops, you can stop and then start power to the MAU 2,
to start CMC operation again.
NOTE: Before the CMC module is removed or disconnected from the external power source, wait a minimum of 2
minutes.

Data Loading – Laptop PC Central Maintenance System Hardware Architecture
DATA LOADING
Overview
Modular Avionics Units (MAU) (101FY)/(201FY) and Modular Radio Cabinets (MRC) (101NZ)/(201NZ) contains many
different Line Replaceable Modules (LRM). New LRMs are supplied without their operational software or databases.
Before you put the LRMs into operation, use the Data Loading System (DLS) to load their operational software or
databases.
Central Maintenance Computer (CMC) module contains the DLS program. Use the cockpit controls and displays or the
CMC software installed on a laptop Personal Computer (PC) to use the DLS. The laptop PC contains the CMC software
and a 10Base–2 interface (BNC connector) that connects to the Local Area Network (LAN) on the aircraft.
Use the DLS to do full-loads and target-loads to the LRMs. The full-load function loads all applicable LRMs with your
selections of operational software or databases. The target-load function only loads your LRM selections with your
selections of operational software or databases. Use the full-load function to load a new version of operational software or
databases to the complete system. Use the target-load function to load operational software or databases to one or more
LRMs as a result of a maintenance action (for example, replacement of an LRM).
Before the DLS starts the load procedure, it does a check of the LRM hardware and software configuration and gives a
report of errors that occur. During the configuration check, the DLS compares the software version contained in the LRM
with the correct version. Also, to decrease the load time, the DLS does not load data files that are at the correct
configuration in the LRM.
Components
Cursor Control Device (CCD)
Use the CCDs (L201FP)/(R201FP) to change data that shows on the “Data Loader” windows on the Multifunction Display
Units (MDU) (M101FD)/(201FD). The CCDs and the MDUs are part of the Central Display System (CDS).
Control Function

Push the “MENU” button to show the menu selections. Make a selection of the “MAINT” menu
"MENU" Button option. Push the enter pushbutton to make the "MAINT" menu selection. This selection shows
the CMC window on the Multifunction Display (MDU) (M101FD)/(201FD).
DMU (901FP)
The DMU is a load source that the DLS uses to read the media. The DMU includes the CDROMs, PCMCIA type-II ports,
and PCMCIA type-III ports. The DMU connects to the avionics system through the LAN.
Database 1 Module (8101FY) and Database 2 Module (8201FY) (A/C without M305 and SB 018)
The data base modules keep large data files that other devices in the avionics system can get access to through the file
system core service. This module contains copies of all the files that are used for data loading procedures.
PROC 5 Module (2501FY) and PROC 6 Module (2601FY) (A/C with M305 and SB 018)
The PROC 5 module and PROC 6 module keep large data files that other devices in the avionics system can get access
to through the file system core service. This module contains copies of all the files that are used for data loading
procedures.

Data Loading Procedure
The CD-ROM media that supplies the operational software contains all of the system data files that are necessary for the The following “Data Loading Procedures” depicted in this training material are for reference only and are intended to
avionics system to operate. This includes all onboard software files (executables, libraries, registries, and tables) for familiarize the technician with data loading procedures. For operation and maintenance procedures please refer to the
aircraft functions. The DLS uses the load sources that follow: manufacturers approved Aircraft Maintenance Manuals.
− Local CD-ROM or DVD drives
− Disk Management Unit (DMU) (901FP) CD-ROMs or DVDs If you use the DLS in the Central Maintenance Computer - Remote Terminal (CMC-RT) to do the data loading procedure,
− DMU Personal Computer Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA) cards do the steps that follow:
− Local hard-drives − Connect the laptop PC (TO-45-100)
− Database Modules (DBM) (8101FY)/(8201FY) (A/C without M305 and SB 018). − Energize the laptop PC (TO-45-100)
− Processor (PROC) Modules (2501FY)/(2601FY) (A/C with M305 or SB 018). − Make sure that the CMC is available on the laptop PC (TO-45-100)
The DLS operates through the CMC and CMC pages that show on each MDU (M101FD)/(201FD) in the Central Display NOTE: If the Network Interface Controller (NIC)/processor 3 module (2301FY), Modular Avionics Unit (MAU) 2

or on the laptop PC. Use the Cursor Control Devices (CCD) (L201FP)/(R201FP) to make menu selections on the MDUs. Diagnostic Information (LDI) data base has not been loaded, the CMC might not be available.
The CMC-Remote Terminal (CMC-RT) can also show the DLS Interface Display through the "DLS INSTALLATION
FUNCTION" page.
If you use the onboard DLS to do the data loading procedure, do the steps that follow:
You can load OPS or a Separately-Loaded Data Base (SLDB) to a specified module or to all modules in the MAU or the
MRC. To do this, go to the DLS Interface Display or the CMC-RT and make the "TARGET LOAD" or the "FULL LOAD" NOTE: Only use the onboard DLS to do the data loading procedure as an alternative to replace a single module
selection. The target-load function loads the data to the specified target module. The full-load function loads the data to all if the CMC-RT is not available. Much more time is necessary to do this procedure with the onboard DLS.
the system modules as necessary. The on-board DLS loads the data to one module at a time (serial load). The CMC-RT
loads the data to a maximum of five modules at the same time (parallel load). NOTE: Do not use this procedure to load the Advanced Graphics Modules (AGM) (2101FD)/(2301FD)/(2201FD)/
(2401FD) or the Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning Module (EGPWM) (101FW)/(7101FW).
The directory DR-PN data files control all software load procedures.
− Get access to the CMC through the CMC Interface Display that shows on the Multifunction Display Unit (MDU)
(M101FD)/(201FD) (Refer to TASK 45-10-00-910-801).
The DLS uses short-load logic to load only the necessary software to the LRMs. The short-load logic has the functions
that follow: − Make a selection of the “MAINT” menu item on the CMC Interface Display.
− It does not load data files from the media to the LRM if the data files are the same
− It loads data files that are out of configuration to the LRM NOTE: If the CMC menu shows a red X after you start the data loading procedure, reconfigure the MDU or a
Primary Display Unit (PDU) to an MDU so that the “MAINT” menu item shows again.
− It adds new data files to the LRM
− It erases unwanted data files from the LRM
− Let the CMC start and become available.
Before the DLS uses the short-load logic, it does a check to make sure that the hardware configuration of the LRM is
correct. If the hardware configuration is incorrect, the DLS does not do the load procedure. If the hardware configuration is Make sure that the aircraft is on the ground in a Weight-On-Wheels (WOW) configuration with airspeed of less than 50

Data Load Procedure for New Modules
CAUTION: IT IS POSSIBLE TO LOAD SOFTWARE TO THE WRONG APM AND THUS ERASE OR WRITE
OVER ITS DATA. WHEN YOU LOAD DATA TO AN APM, MAKE SURE THAT YOU MAKE THE
CORRECT SELECTION OF AN APM/NIC PAIR OR APM/NIM PAIR AS FOLLOWS:
FOR the MAU 1 configuration module (6101FY), USE the NIC/processor 1 module (2101FY) IN
the MAU 1 chassis (101FY)
FOR the MAU 2 configuration module (6201FY), USE the NIC/processor 3 module (2301FY) IN
the MAU 2 chassis (201FY)
FOR APM 3, USE the NIM 1 module (1101NZ) IN MRC 1 (101NZ)
FOR APM 4, USE the NIM 2 module (1201NZ) IN MRC 2 (201NZ)
− Do the steps that follow to load the new module, MRC, or APM with its applicable software from the OPS CD-ROM
and the applicable SLDB:
− Do a target load of the OPS from the OPS CD-ROM to the new module, MRC, or APM.
NOTE: The format of the DR-PN file of the OPS is EBXXXXXXX-XXXXX. The MDUs (M101FD)/(201FD) can
show the part number of the OPS installed on the aircraft. For data about how to find the OPS part
number on the MDUs, go to paragraph 8.. The OPS CD-ROM shows the same part number.
− On some modules, you must load one or more SLDBs. Use the OPS and SLDB Load Configuration to identify if there
is a related SLDB to load.
If an SLDB is applicable to the module, MRC, or APM, find the correct CD-ROM and DR-PN file that you must use to load
the applicable SLDB to the new module, MRC, or APM.
NOTE: When you install a new APM or MRC, load the "settings.bin" file first, then the "options.bin" file.
Do a target load.
If no SLDB is applicable to the module, MRC, or APM, continue with the subsequent step.

DATA LOADING (CONTINUED)
Operation (Continued)
Data Load Procedure for New Modules (Continued)
If you replace the NIC/processor 1 module (2101FY) or the NIC/processor 3 module (2301FY), do the steps that follow:
− After you replace one of these modules, the "Validate Configuration" message can possibly show in the CAS window
of the PDU (L101FD)/(R101FD). This is not a fault message. Move the cursor to the MDU (M101FD)/(201FD) and
push the "MENU" button on the Cursor Control Device (CCD) (L201FP)/(R201FP).
− Make the "Avionics" selection to show the Avionics page with the default "Init" tab selection.
− Make a selection of the "System Config" tab to show the "System Config" page.
− Make the "Confirm Config" selection to cancel the CAS message.
If you replace the processor 5 module (2501FY) (Flight Management System (FMS) 1), processor 6 module (2601FY)
(FMS 2), or NIC/processor 2 module (2201FY) (FMS 3), do the steps that follow:
NOTE: Each of these modules contains the same FMS software. After you replace one, it is possible that the
FMS is not in the synchronous mode. This is not unusual because the Custom data base file (which
contains the stored flight plan) is different from the Custom data base files contained in the other
modules.
− To load a copy of the Custom data base from one of the other modules to the new module, do the steps that follow:
Move the cursor to the MDU (M101FD)/(201FD) and push the "MENU" button on the CCD (L201FP)/(R201FP).
Make the "Avionics" selection to show the Avionics page with the default "Init" tab selection.
Make a selection of the "Custom DB" tab to show the "Custom DB" page.
Go to the adjacent "Crossload" window and do the steps that follow:
▪ From the "From" list, make a selection of a source FMS module (but not the new FMS module). This FMS Figure 44
module will be the data source for the new modules. Custom DB Tab on Avionics Window
▪ From the "To" list, make a selection of the applicable new FMS modules.
Make the "Xload" selection to load a copy of the Custom data base to the new FMS modules. The load percentage shows
in amber below the "Xload" selection. When the percentage gets to 100%, go to the subsequent step.
Move the cursor to the PDU (L101FD)/(R101FD) and push the "MENU" button on the CCD (L201FP)/(R201FP).
Make the "Sensor" selection to show the Sensor Management page.
Make a selection of the "Navigation" tab to show the drop-down menu.
Make the "FMS" selection to show the FMS sensor page.
Make sure that the FMS sensor page shows that each FMS is in the "Synchronous" mode.
− If you replace the processor 5 module (2501FY) or the processor 6 module (2601FY), do the steps that follow:
Move the cursor to the MDU (M101FD)/(201FD) and push the "MENU" button on the CCD (L201FP)/(R201FP).
Make the "Avionics" selection to show the Avionics page with the default "Init" tab selection.
Make a selection of the System Config Tab.
Push the “Next” button until the ECB circuit breaker data shows.
The ECB database number shows under ECB 1 CIRCUIT BREAKER if you replaced the processor 6 module (2601FY) or
under ECB 2 CIRCUIT BREAKER if you replaced the processor 5 module (2501FY).
Make sure that you use this ECB database part number when you upload the ECB database.

software tools that follow: 2
SETUP HOSTS Use this tool to change the "hosts" file in the root directory (for example, 1 3 3
FILE Tool "C:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc") in relation to the specified aircraft configuration. The "hosts" file
makes a direct relation between the file names and the applicable Internet Protocol (IP) address.
CLEAR NIC On some software versions, a fault history manager problem can cause a file error to occur in the 1
EEPROM FILES Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) of the NIC modules or the
2
Tool NIMs. This error cancels the display during a TELNET diagnostic procedure. To correct this error,
use this tool to erase the old EEPROM data.
FLASH INIT FMS Use this tool only when the processor 5 module (2501FY) (Flight Management System (FMS) 1),
PROCS Tool processor 6 module (2601FY) (FMS 2), or NIC/processor 2 module (FMS 3) rejects a new data
base.
DBM FLASH INIT (A/C without M305 Use this tool only when a DBM (8101FY)/(8201FY) rejects the back-up
Tool and SB 018) OPS during a software update or the replacement of a module. The DLS
