|
|
How Many ADSPs are equipped? |
4 ADSPs |
|
|
ADSP Components |
- Multifunction Probes - Air Data Computer |
|
|
ADS Reversion Logic |
Normal - Onside 1st reversion - ADS3 2nd reversion - Cross-side |
|
|
What does the ADA do? |
Computes final air data (alt, airspeed, etc.) and transmits info to the appropriate airplane systems. |
|
|
ADS 1 or 2 Failure indications? |
-Affected PFD loses all air data information -Red cross is shown over the failed indication -EICAS message generated |
|
|
Radar Altimeter range of operation? |
-20' to 2500' |
|
|
Radar Altimeters relationship to TCAS? |
TCAS uses radar altimeter altitudes to inhibit descend resolution advisories. |
|
|

PFD 1 displays RA 1
PFD 2 Displays RA 2 |
|
|
Radar Alt Abnormal Ops |
One may provide both PFDs.
Will be amber to indicate condition |
|
|

|
|
DVDR Consists of |
FDR and CVR |
|
|
How many DVDRs are installed? |

DVDR 1 - fwd electronics bay DVDR 2 - aft electronics bay
|
|
|
