|
why are some Pb painted amber |
some Pb (e.g ACW) are painted in amber to help crew to find them in case of smoke (fluorescent paint) |
|
what does a depressed (in) Pb mean |
> ON > AUTO > NORM |
|
what does a released (out) Pb mean |
> OFF > MAN > ALTN > SHUT |
|
what does "no lights illuminated except flowbars" indicate |
normal basic operation |
|
what does "blue" light indicate |
temporarily required system in normal operation |
|
what does "green" light indicate |
backup or alternate system selected |
|
what does "amber" light indicate |
caution |
|
what does "red" light indicate |
warning |
|
how is the cockpit door locked |
electromagnetically |
|
the cockpit door satisfies what requirements |
> bulletproof > intrusion resistant > compliant with rapid decompression requirements |
|
which door panel may be removed via quick release hinges |
the right door panel can be removed from the cockpit if the door becomes jammed by using quick release hinges |
|
what is the Cockpit Door Locking System (CDLS) comprised of |
> door call panel > toggle switch - center pedestal (cockpit door control panel) > cockpit door control unit - forward avionics bay > buzzer > cockpit door locking system switch |
|
from the door call panel what 2 access request types are there |
> routine > emergency |
|
what does the toggle switch allow |
the toggle switch allows flight crew to lock or unlock the cockpit door following an access request |
|
what is the cockpit door control unit in charge of |
the cockpit door control unit is the system controller in charge of: > locking and unlocking the electromagnetic locks > alert annunciation to indicate failure of the electromagnetic locks > activating the access request buzzer and turning on the door call panel LED's |
|
what is the buzzer duration for: > routine access request > emergency access request |
> routine = duration of Pb activation + 2 seconds > emergency = continuous |
|
what does the cockpit door locking system switch do |
the cockpit door locking system switch enables the cockpit door locking system to be switched on or off |
|
on the cockpit door control panel what do the toggle switch positions do to the system |
> open = > allows the door to be opened > must be held in "open" position till the right door is opened > close = > door is locked > emergency access is possible > deny = > door is locked > emergency access, buzzer, door call panel inhibited for 3 minutes |
|
in the case of an electrical failure what happens to the cockpit door |
in case of electrical failure, the cockpit door is automatically unlocked |
|
on the cockpit door control panel what do the "fault" and "open" indications mean |
> open light on = door not locked/closed > open light flashes = emergency access procedure (door unlocks after 30 seconds) > fault light on = system failure is identified (electromagnetic locks, control unit or electrical supply) |
|
cockpit door locking system on/off switch: > location > ON/OFF position meaning |
> behind the FO position > ON = CDLS operative > OFF = > CDLS inoperative > door is unlocked > if the aircraft is powered the fault light illuminates |
|
what are the CDLS's electrical supplies |
> CDLS = DC BUS 1 > cockpit door fault light = ESS BUS 2 |
|
entry door |
> outward opening > non plug type > 72cm wide > 1.75m high > aft + left (port) |
|
service door |
> outward opening > non plug type > 69cm wide > 1.27m high > aft + right (starboard) |
|
cargo door |
> outward opening > non plug type > 1.30m wide > 1.57m high > fwd + left (port) > actuated by and electric motor - operated by a control panel |
|
what happens when the cargo door control panel is opened |
connects the "GND HDLG BUS" to the HOT MAIN BAT BUS" |
|
on the cargo door control panel what do all of the lights indicate: > GND HDLG "ON BAT" > "cargo door latched" blue light > "selector armed" green light |
>GND HDLG BUS is being directly supplied by the "HOT MAIN BATT BUS" - even if the battery toggle switch in the flight deck is in the off position > all door hooks and latch locks are fully engaged > actuator selector switch working conditions are met: > panel cover open > door unlocked by operating handle: all hooks disengaged |
|
how can the cargo door be operated manually |
cargo door may be manually operated by using a hand crank introduced in an adjusted shaft drive actuator - in case of electrical failure |
|
forward avionics compartment access hatch |
> inward opening > manually operated > fwd section of the nose wheel bay > access to avionics compartment behind the main instrument panel |
|
cockpit communications hatch |
> 17.5cm wide > 15cm high > below the captain side window |
|
emergency exits: |
> cockpit : > one plug type hatch in the cockpit roof > cabin: > 2 plug emergency type III doors > fwd left + right side |
|
when do the door alert lights illuminate |
the light illuminates amber and the CCAS is activated when associated door is not seen locked (one or more microswitches in unlocked position) |
|
which doors are monitored through the MFCs |
> CARGO > FWD COMPT > EMER (cockpit hatch) doors only are monitored through the MFC |
|
> what does the test Pb on the doors control panel do > what are the testing requirements |
> enable to test the microswitches system on cabin door and service door > this test has to be performed: > on the ground > doors open |
|
on the doors control panel: when do the "OK" lights illuminate |
the lights illuminate when: > depressing the test button > on the ground > only if cabin and service doors are open and if associated microswitches are in unlocked position |
|
what are the electrical supply for: > doors alert > cargo door actuation |
> DC BUS 2 > HOT MAIN BAT BUS --> GND HDLG BUS |
