EDS Flashcards
Which specific colours depict the flow lines on the
synoptic pages?
Black: no flow,
green: normal value,
amber: below normal value,
red: exceeding normal value
Where are the baro minimums set?
On the CTP by selecting MENU pushbutton and then line
select key 1R for MINIMUMS
What is the purpose of the CVS control knob?
Controls the brightness of the EVS or SVS HUD imagery
What does the green arrow indicate on the left wing of the FPV?
Flight path acceleration cue, the vertical position relative
to the FPV indicates acceleration/deceleration state
When is the magenta flight guidance cue displayed?
One second after the nosewheel liftoff
What will occur when the DISPLAYS control on the RSP
is selected to REV?
EICAS compression mode,displaying EICAS below
both PFDs
What is the result of a DU failure?
Automatic DU reversion to ensure PFD and EICAS display
When does the 45° bank indication display on the HUD?
When it exceeds 35° of bank
What message displays while the EVS CLEAR switch is activated? Where does it display?
EVS CLR displays in the upper right corner of the HUD display
Which systems provide the TAS and GS data?
TAS provided by ADC,
GS provided by FMS
Which ADC source is the default source for DUs 1 and 2?
ADC 1
What is the purpose of the EVENT button on the forward
auxiliary control panel on the centre pedestal?
Flags a particular event in time within the flight data recorder (FDR) memory and encodes the central aircraft information maintenance system (CAIMS)
How is manual DU reversion accomplished?
RSP selection of the affected DISPLAYS control to REV
What is the purpose of the HUD control knob?
It controls the brightness of the HUD display
Which specific colours depict synoptic page information?
Green: normal range,
amber: precautionary range,
red: limits exceeded
What does the airspeed trend vector indicate?
Airspeed in 10 seconds, if current acceleration is maintained
What is the function of the MKP directional arrows?
Allows backup cursor control
How are miscompare annunciations represented in the HUD?
Miscompare annunciations are boxed and flash for 5 seconds, with data remaining displayed
How does the pilot display the altitude readout in metric?
Select the ALT knob on the flight control panel to “M”
What occurs if the onside
ADC source fails in flight?
Automatic reversion to ADC 3
What does the altitude
trend vector indicate?
Altitude in 10 seconds,
based on current vertical speed
How is EVS ice protection function activated?
Selection of either engine cowl anti-ice on and the aircraft in the air
What is the ground operation
time limit for the cockpit displays?
Flight compartment temperature in excess of 40°C limits
display operation to 30 minutes
If the BARO control knob on the CTP fails, how can the barometric correction be entered?
Use the PFD FORMAT soft key on the PFD
What pitch attitudes cause the PFD to remove non-essential flight data?
+30° noseup and -20° nosedown
What does the FPV indicate?
The trajectory of the aircraft in space
How is the altitude selector knob manipulated to set the altitude in 100ft increments?
Push in on the altitude selector as it is rotated
What does the speed error tape on the left wing of the FPV indicate?
Difference in speed between indicated and selected, to a maximum of 15 kt. Tick marks are represented
every 5 kt.
What are the restrictions on the use of the SVS in countries
which are not WGS84 compliant?
SVS must not be used in the HUD past the final approach fix
