Q

Pushing either master caution/warning reset switch silences the warning and fire bell except

A

Landing config
Autopilot disconnect
Takeoff config
Some aircraft over speed.

18
Q

Engine start message inhibited from engine start switch engagement until

A
  • engine reaches idle
  • start is aborted
  • 2min elapsed
19
Q

Start messages not inhibited

A
  • eng fuel val
  • Eng shutdown
  • Eng starter
  • starter cutout
20
Q

Warning inhibits

A

From nose gear extension during rotation to
400ft or 20 sec

If fire occurs during inhibit, EICAS mess, but no fire bell and MW lights.
If condition still exists after inhibit, fire bell and MW light illuminate.

21
Q

Caution inhibits

A

80kts until

-400ft or 20 sec,

22
Q

Advisory inhibits

A

From thrust set for takeoff until
400ft or 30 sec

Data link lost
Windshear system

23
Q

Communication inhibits

A

Thrust set for TO
Till
400ft or 20 sec

24
Q

Landing inhibits

A

EICAS comm alert, selcal, ACARS, ATC, PRINTER
Not cabin alert although chime is inhibited

Begins 800ft until
Less than 75 kts or
900ft in Missed approach.

25
Shutdown inhibits
``` Eng anti ice Eng bleed off Gen drive Gen off Eng oil press Hyd prim pump Eng control ```
26
Alt alert inhibit
Gear down and locked
27
Takeoff config alert
``` Leading edge slats not in takeoff Trailing edge flaps not in takeoff Slat/flap position disagree with lever Stab trim outside of green band C2B6 nose up only Speedbraie bit in down detention Parking brake valve closed ```
28
Landing config warning
In flight Any landing gear not down and locked Flaps in landing position or RA below 800 ft
29
Stick nudger
If flaps are in the retracted position and the a of a continues to increase, control column nudger moves control column forward.
30
GPWS Provides time-critical alerts for potentially hazardous flight conditions involving imminent impact with the ground Voice call outs for situational awareness Windshear Inputs from
``` ADC IRS ILS RA GPS ```
31
GPWS modes
1. Excessive descent rate 2. Excessive terrain closure rate 3. Alt loss after takeoff or go-around 4. Unsafe terrain clearance while not on landing configuration 5. GS deviation 6. Height callout and bank angle 7. Windshear
32
Enhanced GPWS
Look ahead terrain awareness. Compare airplane geographic position and altitude against an internal terrain database to predict and display potential conflict with terrain. Requires inputs from GPS
33
GPWS priority
``` Windshear Mode 1 Mode 2 Look ahead terrain warning Look ahead obstacle warning Mode 2 caution Look ahead terrain caution Look ahead obstacle caution Mode 4 Mode 6 Mode 4 G Mode 4 F Sink rate caution mode 1 Sink rate after takeoff mode 3 GS mode 5 Predictive windshear caution ```
34
Mode 1
Sink rate then | Pull up
35
Mode 2 excessive terrain closure
Mode 2 A- not in landing config Warnings continue until 300’ gained Mode 2 B- flaps in landing position Pull up if no gear, otherwise only terrain 200-789 ft
36
Mode 3 Altitude loss after TO or GA
Greater than 150’, 25% Dont sink aural replaced by too low terrain Arms below 245’, active when gear or flaps raised. Effective between 30 and 1330 ft Caution when alt loss =10% of RA
37
Mode 4
Mode 4 A Below 190 kts -too low gear-too low terrain Mode4 B Below 159 kts- too low flaps- too low terrain
38
Mode 5 GS
More than 1.3 dots below Below 1000’ Gear down Kagoshima exception. Below 1500’ Gear not applicable
39
RA
15-35 sec from closest approach.
40
TA
20-48 sec from closest approach
