39
SELECT MODE AFTER RTA
SELECT ALTERNATE PERFORMANCE MODE. (ECON, MANUAL SPEED, ETC.) Cause - RTA mode has been discontinued due to sequencing of RTA waypoint or RTA waypoint has been removed from the flight plan.
40
SINGLE FMC OPERATION
IF THE FMC SOURCE SELECTOR SWITCH IS IN THE “NORMAL” POSITION, MOVE TO “BOTH ON L”. NO ACTION IS REQUIRED IF THE FMC SOURCE SELECTOR SWITCH IS ALREADY POSITIONED TO “BOTH ON L” OR “BOTH ON R”. Cause - The primary FMC has determined that the secondary FMC is not available. (Dual FMC as installed)
41
SW OPTIONS INVALID | U10.5 and later
RELOAD THE FMC OPC SOFTWARE BY MAINTENANCE. Cause - The CRC performed during power up BIT on the current software options data base has failed, or the CRC of the software options data base that has been loaded via the data loader has failed.
42
TAKEOFF SPEEDS DELETED | (U12.0 and later) and CDS BP 15
RESELECT NEW V SPEEDS AND CLEAR MESSAGE. ENTER UPDATED/CORRECTED OAT ON THE N1 LIMITS PAGE, THEN RESELECT NEW V SPEEDS AND CLEAR MESSAGE. Cause - A change to runway, runway data, takeoff thrust selection or performance data is made after the V speeds have been selected, or entered V speeds fail to meet relative value check. A check, after first engine start, of entered OAT versus sensed OAT has a difference of +/- 6 degrees Celsius.
43
THRUST REQUIRED | U10.5 and later
CLEAR THE MESSAGE. INCREASE AIRSPEED TO WITHIN 15 KNOTS OF SPEED TARGET. Cause - Airplane is in an underspeed condition.
44
UNABLE HOLD AIRSPACE | U10.2 and later
