Indicating and Recording System Flashcards
Describe the CCD
used to position the cursor to a different display
What are the three ways to control the the cursor
CCD
Multifunction keypad
EFIS control panel ND mode selector
What is the Tap feature for the CCD
Tap a corner causes the cursor to jump to that corner if there is a selectable function in that corner
What is the swipe feature
swipe can move the cursor to that display
What are the Multiple display Management types
Synchronized - (CHKL) what effects one effects the other
Independent - not linked (CDU)
Blank - exceedence of allowed number for that display
Which controls which DU
DSP - upper
MFK - lower
What does the white border around the ND and CDU switches on the DSP and MFK
Default display
What determines which system display appears when SYS is pressed
Phase of Flight
before start - STAT
After start - FCTL synoptic
in flight - FUEL
Grd after landing - STAT
What is the EICAS transfer switch
moves EICAS from one inbd DU to the other
What does the ENG switch on the DSP do
cycle the secondary eng display on the EICAS
What are the AIR DATA/ATT AUTO and PFD/MFD NORM for
Non Normal conditions when automatic display reconfiguration has failed
What does AIR DATA/ATT control
changes the source of A/S, altitude,
Who has control of the ND if both pilots select it on the lower DU
who ever selected it first
How many MFD’s are available for selection
5
1 has to be EICAS
Where can EICAS not be displayed
Lower DU
Where is auto reconfiguration of the DU’s
Outbd DU moves over one to INbd DU
INbd DU moves over to FO INBD DU
Where is the EFIS Control back up
and the DSP select panel back up
on the SYS - EFIS CTRL BCKUP
What are the prediction times of the trend arrows for A/S and ALT
A/S 10 sec
ALT 6 sec
What does a Yellow box around a yellow altimeter setting
STD not selected above the transition altitude
Same when below the STD alt
What is the L beside the STD on the Baro altimeter
Which EFIS control panel is the reference for the A/P and FD
What does AOA SPD or GPS ALT in yellow at the bottom of the speed or alt tape mean
the Normal source of airspeed or altitude failed
back up source is used
the VNAV Band has s upper and lower limit what is it
upper speed VNAV PTH changes to VNAV SPD
Lower speed the A/T will add thrust above the computed descent thrust
What is TAMS
Thrust Asymmetry Minimum Speed
Tape to provide SA of minimum control speed for operation with large thrust Asymmetry
On an ILS with LOC mode what does one rectangle mean relative to the LOC
1/2 dot deviation
When does auto tuning occur for an ILS
< 150 nm
50 nm from TOD
FMC in descent
What approaches are not approved for autoland
Non ILS apporaches using IAN
What are the Modes for FMC approach (IAN)
LOC - FAC
G/S - G/P
Pointers are triangles
What is the Mini map fixed range
20 nm
What is the CCS and CCD
Cursor control selector (Bottom of the MFK)
Cursor control device
What is the VSD
Vertical Situation Display
Bottom of the ND for descent profile
Are the Map and Mini map displays Heading up or Track up
Heading up
When does the airport moving map automatically displayed
ND range 5 nm or less
the PICK WAYPOINT feature is available when
on the Map and Plan mode when cursor is on the display
What are the FMC Calculated points:
T/C T/D S/C E/D
for the VSD
T/C - top of climb
T/D - top of descent
S/C - step climb
E/D - end descent
(deceleration points have no lable)
VSD displays Terrain in green yellow and red
what do each mean
green - +500 ft or more below aircraft
Yellow - 250 to 500 ft to 2,000 ft above
Red - 2,000 ft above the aircraft
(same as the EGPWS)
What does MOD RTE mean on VSD
if the FMC active route is being modified
What does VSD TERR OVERD
EGPWS terrain data not available
What does a flashing Altitude bug mean on the HUD
Below minimum maneuvering speed
Amber on the PFD
When does the HUD speed switch from A/S to Mach
0.40 mach
The UA symbols display on the HUD if pitch exceeds what pitch
-20
+35
On the HUD what is the lat deviation from the runway before you get a flashing triangle
23 ft
When does the TO/GA ref line displays on the HUD in TO/GA mode
active when > 65 kts for take off
When does the FPV guidance Cue appear
50 ft RA on take-off
What does the Guidance Cue on the HUD mean when it goes from hollow to solid
Windshear alert
on the HUD what is a line with two squares on each end indicate
margin before stick shaker AOA
appears if within 5 deg
What happens when the AOA line with boxes fills in to a rectangle
the airplane is at the stick shaker AOA
