Q

What does “reverse video” displayed on the Engine Vibration readout indicate?

Vibrational scalar units exceed 4.0

Sec 7.010 p41

17
Q

What should the ENG VALVE CLOSED lights (blue) and SPAR VALVE CLOSED lights (blue) indicate during a normal preflight, power ON, Engines not running?

A

dim blue

Sec 7.010 p 28

18
Q

What does an illuminated FILTER BYPASS light (amber) indicate?

A

impending filter bypass due to a contaminated filter

Sec 7.010 p 29

19
Q

What is the indication if the engine oil pressure drops below redline during takeoff roll (>80)?

A

Steady “LOW OIL PRESSURE” light on Upper DU (Flashing inhibited 80 kts to 400 RA)

(sec 7.010 p 37)

20
Q

What does the Ignition Selection Switch in the IGN R position select?

A

IGN R selects the right igniter for use on both engines

Sec 7.010 p 43

21
Q

In flight, what does the Engine Start Switch in CONT provide with the Engine Start Lever in IDLE?

A

The selected igniters (L R or BOTH) are operated continuously

(Sec 7.010 p 44)

22
Q

In flight, what does the Engine Start Switch in FLT provide with the Engine Start Lever in IDLE?

A

Both igniters are operated regardless of selected igniters

Sec 7.010 p 44

23
Q

What does a steady START VALVE OPEN (amber) light indicate?

A

The start valve is open either during engine start or uncommanded between 80 kts and 400 RA — will flash if otherwise uncommanded

(Sec 7.010 p 46)

24
Q

What does an amber REV indicate? A green REV?

A

Amber REV: reverser sleeve moves from stowed position
Green REV: reverse thrust lever can be raised to detent No 2

(Sec 7.010 p 51)

25
Q

What does a REVERSER (amber) light on the Aft Overhead Panel indicate?

A

Illuminates for roughly 10 seconds upon reverser stowage until Isolation Valve closes.

After 12 seconds, illuminated REVERSER indicates a malfunction has occurred and Master Caution illuminates

(Sec 7.010 p 53)

26
Q

Which APU lights will accompany an automatic APU shutdown?

A

MASTER CAUTION and corresponding LOW OIL PRESSURE, FAULT, or OVER SPEED

(Sec 7.020 p 5)
