By changing the selector knob on the Display Control Panel to EICAS, the status and synoptic
pages are shown on the associated MFD
Ref: CR7/9 OM 11-14.2
What happens and what can be done if ED1 fails?
If ED1 fails, the primary page is automatically displayed on ED2 and the ECP is deactivated. This
ensures that the engine instruments and CAS messages are always in view. Failure of ED2 also
deactivates the ECP. Changing the selector knob to EICAS on either DRP will make the status
and synoptic pages available on that MFD. If either ED1 or ED2 has failed, the ECP is deactivated.
To reactivate the ECP, the selector on the Source Selector Panel must be moved to ED1 or ED2 –
whichever CRT has not failed. If ED1 fails, all EICAS pages are available on ED2 after the selector
on the Source Selector Panel is moved to ED2. If operating with a single ED and the Source Select
Panel selected to allow ECP usage, a new Warning or Caution message will cause the ED to
switch back to the primary page Selecting ED2 on the source selector panel will reactivate the
ECP
