AutoThrottle
AutoThrottle System (A/THR)
, using inputs from the FMGC, controls thrust
based on airplane speed, altitude and
configuration. The throttles do not move when
the Autothrottle System is in use. The system
is armed in flight by pushing the A/THR switch
on the FCU when the throttles are not in the
engagement range.
Transmit signals to the FADEC, which
computes and displays the thrust rating limit
and EPR. The throttle can only be moved
manually. There are five lever positions define
by stops or detents:
Reverse Idle,
Forward Idle,
Climb (CL),
Continuous Thrust (FLX/MCT)
and TakeOff / Go Around (TO/GA)
Autothrottle Disconnect Switches ( Red
Buttons )
When pressed, disconnects the autothrottle
system.

OFF - Closes the HP and LP fuel valves. Resets both channels of the FADEC.
NORM - Continuous ignition A + B is selected when the engine is running and one of the
following is met:
FLEX or TO/GA thrust is selected on the ground
TO/GA thrust is selected in flight
ENG ANTI ICE switch is ON
Engine surge or stall occurs in flight
FLAPS lever position is other then "0" in flight
CRANK - The start valve opens provided the ENG MAN START switch is ON and N2 is less
than 10%. Ignition is not supplied.
IGN / START - Provides continuous ignition if the ENG MASTER switch is ON and N2 is at idle
or greater.
During and automatic start, on airplanes placarded :EXTENDED DRY CRANK", expect
ignition and fuel flow 50 seconds after ENG MASTER switch is selected ON.
On airplanes without the placard, expect ignition and fuel flow between approximately 15%
and 20% N2.
During a manual start the HP fuel valve is open and ignition is selected when the ENG
MASTER switch is selected ON.
FIRE Light
Illuminates when the respective fire warning is activated and during engine fire test.
FAULT Light
Illuminates amber in the event of an automatic start abort, or a disagreement between the HP fuel
valve position of FADEC channel A and B.

Speed Brakes. A "hard point: is
provided at the 1/2 position.
Speed Brake deflection is limited to
approximately 1/2 with an autopilot
engaged, regardless of lever position.
Pulling the lever up to the RET position
arms the ground spoilers to
automatically extend for landing or
when executing a rejected takeoff.
Trim
RUD Trim Selector
Controls the Rudder Trim actuator which
moves the neutral point of the articial feel at a
rate of 1 degree per second of rudder travel.
Selector is deactivated with A/P engaged.

5.7. Multifunction
Control Display Unit (MCDU) ( A320 )
To me, the MCDU, Mulifunction Control Display Unit is the heart of the A320/319. Everything
that the airbus can do, can be controled from this unit. The few pages above, that I have manage
to highlight are just a small sample of the many pages that you can access from the MCDU.

Operates as a push-to-talk switch for boom or
oxygen mask microphones.
Neutral - Boom and mask
microphones are disconnected from
transmission, although reception is
normal. Switch is spring-loaded to
neutral.
Transmit - When selected, provides
transmission to the facility selected on
the ACP transmission switch. If
transmit is selected on the sidestick
when the ACP INT/RAD switch is set
to INT, the transmit function has
priority over the interphone function.
