AUTOPILOT FLIGHT DIRECTOR SYSTEM - INTRODUCTION

Thrust Management System
The thrust management system has two functions. The system moves the
thrust levers and calculates the thrust limit for the EICAS display.
Yaw Damper System
The yaw damper system controls the rudder to decrease yaw oscillations
because of a Dutch roll or gustinduced sideslips.
Automatic Stabilizer Trim and Mach Trim System
The automatic stabilizer trim and Mach trim system controls stabilizer position
as a function of these:
- Mach at high speeds

- Autopilot trim commands with the autopilot engaged.
Autopilot Flight Director System
The autopilot flight director system gives automatic control for these control
systems to operate the selected mode:
- Aileron
- Elevator
- Stabilizer
- Rudder.
The autopilot flight director system also gives pitch and roll flight director
commands, system warnings, and annunciations.
Maintenance Monitor System
The maintenance monitor system gives a centralized flight and ground faults
readout and ground test function for these systems:
- Autopilot flight director system

- Thrust management system
- Flight management system.

General
The autopilot flight director system (AFDS) is a triple-channel system which

operates as a single channel system for cruise. For cruise, the AFDS controls
the pitch and roll axes of the airplane and gives pitch and roll flight director
commands. For approach, land, rollout, and go-around, the AFDS operates as a
multi-channel (dual or triple) system to control the pitch, roll, and yaw axes of
the airplane.
TMS - GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Purpose
The thrust management computer (TMC) has a thrust limit function and an
autothrottle function. These functions each have different modes that you select
and show in different locations.
Thrust Limit Functions
Selection of the thrust limit modes are from the thrust mode select panel
(TMSP) or by the FMC in VNAV mode. They show on EICAS.
The thrust limit functions are always active. The thrust limit shows on EICAS
and is an upper limit for autothrottle calculations.
Autothrottle Functions
Selection of the autothrottle modes are from the AFCS mode control
panel(MCP) or by the FMC in VNAV mode. They show on the EADI.
The autothrottle engages in a mode when the AFCS MCP switch is in the A/T
ARM position, and you select a mode. These functions move the thrust levers.
The propulsion interface management unit (PIMU) is a digital buffer between

the electronic engine control (EEC) and the TMC.

MAINTENANCE MONITOR SYSTEM - MCDP AUTO POWER Faults Not Stored

ON MODE Self-tests are DONE during the auto on mode. Any selftest failure will cause the
MCDP to shut down. Failure data for this condition is not stored. Failures will
Initiation
show when you do a manual power-up.
The MCDP comes on when either air/ground input changes from an in-air to an
on-ground state. This normally occurs at touchdown in order to store last flight
faults.
The STORE DATA Bit is sent by the computers only when this sequence of
events has occurred:
- IRS ground speed 100 Kts and air/ground = in air

- IRS ground speed 40 Kts and air ground = on ground
- For the FCCs, the autopilot channel is disengaged.
Termination
The auto power on mode will stop when last flight fault data has been received
from all computers with their store data bits set on, or after three minutes.
During the auto power ON mode, the MCDP switches are deactivated.
Undesired Power-Up
Auto power-up will also occur if the air-ground circuit breakers, LDG GR
POSITION AIR/GND SYS 1 and POSITION AIR/GND SYS 2, are cycled from
off to on because this sends a transition from in-air to on-ground to the
MCDP. Air/ground inputs may also cycle during power transfer of external/
generator/APU power. You may stop the three-minute auto power-up period, if
caused by ground operation of the air/ground circuit breakers or power transfer
by a cycle of the MAINT CONT DISPLAY circuit breaker.
Message Displayed
During this auto power-on mode, the display message is AUTO ON MODE IN

FLT CONT/HYD - FLIGHT CONTROLS - INTRODUCTION

Purpose
The flight control system controls the airplane attitude as necessary to follow a
flight profile.
Flight Control System Description
The flight control system includes primary controls which directly control
airplane attitude and secondary controls which change the effectiveness of
primary controls.
These are the primary controls:
- Two inboard and two outboard aileron surfaces provide roll or lateral control
- Two elevator surfaces provide primary pitch control
- One rudder surface provides yaw control.
These are the secondary flight controls:
- Twelve spoiler segments help roll control and effect lift and drag
- The moveable horizontal stabilizer helps pitch control
- Twelve leading edge slats and four trailing edge flaps are high lift devices
which change the effectiveness of the primary control surfaces.
FLT CONT/HYD - FLIGHT CONTROLS - INTRODUCTION
COMPONENT LOCATION - FLIGHT COMPARTMENT

Primary Flight Control Inputs
Manual inputs for pitch, roll, and yaw control are provided by the captain and
first officer control column, control wheel, and rudder pedals. The control wheels
have switches to disengage the autopilot.
Aileron trim control is provided by two switches on the P8 aft aisle stand panel.
The trim position indicators are on top of the control wheels.
The rudder trim switch is a round knob to the right of the aileron trim switches.
The rudder trim position indicator is forward of the trim switch
Secondary Flight Control Inputs
Stabilizer trim control can be done either electrically with the thumb switches on
the outboard horn of each control wheel or with either alternate electric
stabilizer trim arm and control switches or via manual arm and control levers on
the P10 quadrant stand. The stabilizer trim is the only method for pitch trim.
There is no elevator trim. The manual flap / slat control lever and speed brake
control lever are also on the P10 quadrant stand.

CONTROLS
Engine Ignition and Start Control Panel
The switch for manual deployment of the ram air turbine (RAT) is on this panel.
You push the switch to extend the RAT. The lower part of the switch
(UNLOCKD) comes on amber to show that the extend mechanism releases.
Electric power connects to a motor to extend the turbine. The upper part of the
switch (PRESS) comes on in green when the RAT extends, and the pressure
gets to 1275 psi.
You cannot retract the RAT in the air. You must manually put the blades to
center for retraction on the ground.
Stabilizer Trim Hydraulics Power Cutout Switches
The stabilizer trim hydraulic power cutout switches individually control left and
center hydraulic pressure to the stabilizer trim control modules. The switches
are on the P10 control stand.
Hydraulic Flight Control Panel
The hydraulic flight control panel has controls that isolate hydraulic systems for
troubleshooting. Push-on/push-off switches on the hydraulic flight
control panel individually operate hydraulic system shutoff valves (SOVs).
Shutters in the switch are a cover for or show the word ON in the upper part of
the switch. The word OFF comes on in amber when the SOV is off.
Wing SOVs control pressure to the wing actuators and servos for ailerons and
spoilers.
Tail SOVs control pressure to elevator and rudder components.

FLT CONT/HYD - COMPONENT - HYDRAULIC SYSTEM CONTROLS
FLT CONT/HYD - COMPONENT - FLIGHT CONTROL

INDICATORS
Trim Indicators
The aileron trim indicator is on the control column. The pointer is in the middle of
the control wheel. When you use the trim, the neutral position changes, and the
control wheel gets a backdrive to the new position. Units of trim show at the
pointer.
The stabilizer trim position indicator has an electrically driven pointer that
operates in response to a position transmitter. The position transmitter
moves by a cable attached to the stabilizer. The scale has colored segments to
show the takeoff range. The rudder trim indicator is almost the same as the
stabilizer indicator. The transmitter moves by mechanical linkage with the
rudder surface.
Trim Switches
The three-position aileron switches are spring-loaded to the center position and
momentary in LEFT WING DOWN and RIGHT WING DOWN positions. You
must use the two switches to give arm and control signals to the trim
actuator.
The rudder trim switch is spring-loaded to center and turns in the necessary
direction of trim.
Flight Control Surface Position Indicators
The position of each flight control surface shows on the EICAS lower display.
You push the STATUS switch on the EICAS control panel to see the display. All
status pages include the control surface position display.

FLT CONT/HYD - AILERON CONTROL SYSTEM

Primary Aileron Control Functions
The primary control inputs are through the captain control wheel and lateral
central control actuators (LCCAs) to the aileron power control actuators (PCAs).
A feel, centering, and trim assembly conditions manual control inputs.
Back-up Aileron Control Functions
The back-up control inputs are through the first officer control wheel by forward
and aft bus cables to the primary system. Final back-up input can be direct
mechanical movement of the wing cable system through override and lost
motion devices.
Autopilot Control Functions
The flight control computers (FCC) receives inputs from the mode control panel
and other sources. The control surface commands go to the LCCAs which
provide mechanical movement to aileron PCAs.
Automatic Control Functions
The outboard aileron lockout device eliminates commands to the outboard

ailerons at cruise speeds. The inboard aileron droop device responds to trailing
edge flap movement to maintain control effectiveness and reduce drag by filling
the gap between flap segments.

Control Inputs
Manual pitch attitude control inputs can be from either control column by a
separate cable system to the aft quadrant aft of the horizontal stabilizer. The two
are interconnected by a torque tube at the control columns and by linkage at the
aft quadrant. There is no power boost for manual inputs.
Autopilot input is from three flight control computers (FCC) to three servos. The
servos move the aft quadrant torque tubes. The servos have LVDTs which
provide autopilot actuator position and output position to the FCCs.
Control Conditioning
Manual inputs are conditioned by the feel unit which obtains data from the feel
computers. Feel pressure changes with airspeed and stabilizer position. The
feel unit also has a centering mechanism to maintain a neutral position when
there is no input.
Control Outputs
Elevator control movements go to the left and right power control actuators
(PCA) by mechanical linkage. There is an interconnection between elevator
PCA linkages by slave cable to prevent a large asymmetry. Position transmitters
are at each elevator to provide control surface position on the EICAS display.

FLT CONT/HYD - RUDDER CONTROL SYSTEM

Trim inputs from the flight compartment control switch move the aft quadrant
Rudder System Description assembly and give a maximum rudder movement of 16.8 degrees. Trim
operation does a backdrive of the cables and rudder pedals.
Rudder system components are in different locations. Rudder pedals, the trim
switch, and indicator are in the flight compartment. System electronics are in the Power Control Actuators (PCA)
main equipment center. These components are in the vertical stabilizer:
Three PCAs move the rudder each with a different hydraulic system. The left
- Autopilot rollout guidance servos hydraulic system pressure to the middle PCA goes through the ratio changer
- Aft quadrant with the trim feel and centering unit actuator. If the ratio changer function has a failure, the middle PCA
- Ratio changer mechanism depressurizes. Each PCA has an override in the input linkage to its control
- Yaw damper actuators valve.
- Power control actuators (PCAs).
The position transmitter on the rudder gives position data for the EICAS display.
Rudder System Function
Manual rudder inputs are mechanical to the PCA control lever. These
components have an effect on the input:
- Feel, centering, and trim mechanism

- Ratio changer
- Yaw damper.
Autopilot inputs from the flight control computers give directional guidance only
during a multichannel approach and rollout.
The YSMs use airspeed and yaw rate from the ADIRU to give turn coordination
and decrease unwanted yaw. The rudder ratio module controls the ratio of
rudder input to rudder movement through the ratio changer. The schedule of
rudder ratio as a function of airspeed is from the yaw damper/stabilizer trim
module (YSM). All inputs move the PCA control levers to control rudder
movement. Each PCA gets power from a different hydraulic system.

YSM - YAW DAMPER INTRODUCTION
Dutch Roll
Dutch Roll is a common oscillatory condition caused by low-drag, high-speed

aerodynamic design and turbulence that is created by air mass instability.
The yaw damper system gives damping with the rudder to decrease dutch roll
by the measurement of lateral acceleration and yaw rate.
Turn Coordination
The yaw damper system gives additional rudder commands to prevent yaw
when the airplane rolls into a turn. The roll induced yaw is opposite to the
intended turn direction. Rudder deflection is necessary to have a coordinated
turn.

YSM - YAW DAMPER INTRODUCTION

YSM - YAW DAMPER - GENERAL DESCRIPTION

General
The yaw damper system has two self-monitored, limited rudder authority yaw
damper functions that operate independently. They are the same. Each yaw
damper function gives a maximum of plus or minus three degrees of rudder
authority. To move the rudder, the output from the yaw damper function of the
two YSMs mechanically add together and then add in series with pilot or
autopilot commands. The two yaw damper outputs add for a maximum of plus
or minus six degrees of rudder authority.
Major Components
The yaw damper system has these major components:
- Yaw damper control panel - flight crew control of system engagement

- Left and right YSMs - control law calculation and system fault monitor
- System input sensors
- Modal suppression accelerometers
- Left and right yaw damper servo actuator - rudder control.
Interfacing Systems
The yaw damper system has interfaces with these systems/components:
- Left and right air data computers (ADCs) - give primary and secondary air data
- Left, center, and right inertial reference units (IRUs) - give inertial data
- Flap/Stabilizer position module (FSPM) - gives stabilizer and flap position data
- Left and right flight management computers (FMCs) - give gross weight data
- Left, center, and right flight control computers (FCCs) - give engine out
moments and multi-channel engagement data.

YSM - GENERAL DESCRIPTION Hydraulic and Air/Ground Inputs
General All the CSEU modules receive hydraulic pressure switch and air ground relay
signals for control, test, and fault indication functions.
The control system electronic unit (CSEU) modules do control functions in the
elevator, spoiler, stabilizer, and rudder systems. There are two yaw damper/ BITE Functions
stabilizer trim modules (YSMs). The YSMs use different inputs to give outputs to
actuators and modules. The YSM built-in test equipment (BITE) software give fault messages and
details to identify yaw damper and stabilizer trim system component faults.
Stabilizer Trim Function
The YSM gives manual and automatic stabilizer trim commands, mach trim, and
unscheduled stabilizer detection and annunciation. The YSMs receive stabilizer
trim control inputs from these components:
- FCCs
- Alternate electric stab trim switches on the control stand
- Manual electric trim switches on the control wheels
- Stabilizer position from a flap/slat position module (FSPM).
The YSM gives control signals to a stabilizer trim control module (STCM)
through the cutout and limit switches.
The air data/inertial reference units (ADIRU’s) give mach and computed
airspeed for the mach trim function.
Caution, advisory, and maintenance messages go to the EICAS computers and

pilots overhead panel for display.
Yaw Damper Function
The YSM receives inputs from these components to control the yaw damper
actuator:
- Air Data Inertial Reference Units (ADIRU)

- Flight management computers (FMCs)
- Accelerometers
- Position signals from the yaw damper actuator LVDT
- FCC.

YSM - STABILIZER TRIM - INTRODUCTION

Purpose
The horizontal stabilizer is a moveable airfoil that adjusts the airplane trim in the
pitch axis. As the aerodynamic characteristics of the airplane change, the
angle of attack of the stabilizer changes to hold the airplane longitudinal
stability.
Movement of the stabilizer leading edge up gives the airplane nose down trim.
Movement of the stabilizer leading edge down gives the airplane nose up trim.
Stabilizer trim is done by these trim modes:
- Manual electric or alternate electric stabilizer trim switches

- the pilot gives stabilizer trim commands
- Auto trim mode - an engaged autopilot (FCC) gives stabilizer trim commands
- Mach trim mode - retraction of the flaps cause stabilizer trim as Mach
increases.
Automatic stabilizer trim and Mach trim modes have a relation to the manual
stabilizer modes and use common system components.

YSM - STABILIZER TRIM - GENERAL DESCRIPTION
YSM - STABILIZER TRIM - FUNCTIONAL MODE PRIORITY Manual electric trim inhibits during multi-channel operation. The YSM does not
let the manual electric trim inputs disengage the autopilot.
General
There are four modes for control of stabilizer trim. The mode priority has a
relation to the number of autopilot channels engaged. The four modes are:
- Alternate electric trim mode

- Manual electric trim mode
- Mach trim mode
- Automatic stabilizer trim mode.
Autopilot Disengaged
Mach trim enables when the autopilot is not engaged in CMD and alternate
electric or manual electric trim is not in use. This occurs automatically and mode
selection is not necessary. Operation of the manual electric trim or the alternate
electric stab trim mode causes an interrupt of Mach/speed trim commands.
Single Channel Autopilot Engaged
When the autopilot engages in single channel, this is the order of control
priority:

- Manual electric trim mode
Operation of manual electric trim causes the autotrim valid signal to be set low
from the YSM. This causes the FCC to disengage during single channel
operation. Operation of alternate electric trim does not disengage the autopilot.
Multi-Channel Autopilot Engaged
When the autopilot is multi-channel engaged (two or more FCCs engaged), this
is the order of priority:

YSM - STABILIZER TRIM - FUNCTIONAL MODE PRIORITY

STABILIZER TRIM SYSTEM - MANUAL ELECTRIC STAB TRIM

- FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Manual Electric Control Mode
Operation of the captain or first officer control wheel switches gives full trim rate
to the horizontal stabilizer (approximately 0.5/sec on the ground). The STCMs
supply hydraulic power to release brakes and hydraulic motors to move the
stabilizer through the stabilizer trim ball screw actuator assembly. The arm
portion of the signal goes through column cutout and limit switches which open
the trim signal to STCM solenoids. This stops stabilizer trim.
The stabilizer trim column cutout switches give manual override of any electric
trim command if there is a runaway stabilizer. It breaks the path for electric
trim commands when you move the control columns in a direction opposite to
the commanded trim direction. The normally closed switches are in parallel to
give column asymmetry protection. If you move the columns forward
more than the limit, it stops a stabilizer airplane nose up command. If you move
the columns aft more than the limit, it stops a stabilizer airplane nose down
command.
Two switches in the limit switch and position transmitter modules limit the travel
of the stabilizer in a leading edge up direction (airplane nose down
trim). The leading edge up electrical limit is 1.5 units for flaps retracted and 0.25
units for flaps not retracted.

Alternate Electric Stab Trim
Operation of the alternate electric stab trim switches gives full rate trim.
Movement of the arm (right) and the control (left) switches forward or aft gives a
nose up or nose down signal. When you release the switches, a spring moves
the switches back to the neutral position.
The nose up or down arm and control signals go directly to the two STCMs.
A normally open micro-switch closes with arm switch movement to connect a

ground to the stabilizer trim aileron lockout modules (SAM). This inhibits the
Mach trim function. The SAM monitors the micro-switch position. If the switch is
in the closed position for more than 30 seconds, and one of the systems has
hydraulic pressure, the manual lever switch fault ball sets on the SAMs.

AUTOMATIC STABILIZER TRIM
General Description
Automatic trim of the stabilizer is done by trim up and trim down commands
from an engaged FCC. The first FCC engaged starts communications with its
YSM. The left and right FCCs interface with the left and right YSMs respectively.
The center FCC interfaces with both YSMs. Each FCC has logic that
determines which YSM processesthe FCC autotrim commands. The first
engaged FCC provides the autotrim signals and controls YSM selection. When
multichannel engaged, if the first FCC in command disengages or is unable to
provide reliable autotrim commands, an automatic change to another FCC
occurs. Autotrim failure annunciation is controlled by fault logic in the FCC in
control.
Functional Description
Each YSM makes an autotrim valid discrete if it is capable of the trim function.
The FCC sends a discrete autotrim arm signal to the YSM(s). This arms the
YSM(s) for data reception. The FCC then sends an engage discrete and
autotrim commands on the FCC-YSM 429 bus interface based on elevator out
of neutral position. The YSM processes the FCC autotrim commands through
arm and control microprocessors to provide up and down signals to the stab
trim control module (STCM).

General
One or more of these conditions cause the amber UNSCHED STAB TRIM light
on the P5 overhead panel to come on and a level B caution on the EICAS
display to show:
- Movement of the stabilizer without a valid stabilizer trim command

- Movement opposite to the stabilizer trim command
- Alternate electric trim used when an autopilot is in command.
The annunciation stops when stabilizer motion stops or when the alternate
electric trim stops.
Autotrim Mode
For the autotrim mode, at least one flight control computer (FCC) must be
engaged and no channel code faults or stabilizer trim function faults.
A channel code fault is set if there is a disagreement between the left and right
YSM channel discretes.
A stabilizer trim function fault is set if one of these conditions occur:
- Trim command coincidence fault - stabilizer trim commands from the control
and arm processor channels disagree
- Trim mode coincidence fault - the stabilizer trim active mode from the control
and arm processor channels disagree.
During single or triple channel autopilot operation, the autotrim mode in the left
YSM does a check to make sure the right YSM autotrim mode is disabled.
During dual channel approaches, full rate autotrim is possible.
Unscheduled Stab Trim
If there is stabilizer trim movement without a valid command or opposite to a

valid command, and this condition stays for 0.6 seconds, an unscheduled trim
fault is set and latched. The unscheduled trim fault resets when the stabilizer

FLT CONT/HYD - GENERAL DESCRIPTION - FLIGHT

CONTROLS
General
All flight control surfaces are moved by hydraulic power control actuators
(PCAs). PCAs are controlled by mechanical linkage with manual, autopilot, and
attitude inputs.
Manual Controls
A system of cables, quadrants, and rods provide manual control from the control
wheel, control column, and rudder pedals. Manual control of the ailerons is
helped by lateral central control actuators (LCCAs) which drive the mechanical
systems in the wings. Manual inputs include artificial feel components to provide
feel in the absence of aerodynamic feedback force.
Autopilot Controls
The autopilot system provides electrical commands to control servos which for
ailerons are the LCCAs. The servos provide the mechanical control of the
PCAs. The required position feedback information is by electrical signal from
the servos.
Attitude Controls
Automatic attitude control is provided for yaw damping. Electrical commands to

the servos result in mechanical motion of the PCA control linkage. Position
feedback is also by electrical signal from the servos.

multichannel operation, because of mechanical jamming or due to a servo
malfunction.
Servo Actuator Description
The servo consists of two solenoid valves, an electro-hydraulic servo valve

(EHSV), a pressure regulator, hydraulic connections, filter, relief valve, detent
and servo pistons, output crank and autopilot and output LVDT's. The solenoid
valves provide hydraulic pressure to the detent or engage piston and to the
EHSV for control of the servo piston. The pressure regulator reduces system
pressure to the detent piston to allow manual or autopilot override. The EHSV
supplies pressure to one side or the other (C1 or C2) of the servo piston to
cause movement in response to autopilot commands. This movement is
transmitted
via the autopilot LVDT to the flight control computer (FCC). With the
servo fully engaged, the detent pistons are clamped by regulated pressure to
the output crank. Output movement is transmitted to the FCC from the output
LVDT. The autopilot servo piston movement based on autopilot command will
then move the output crank and the aileron PCA's.
Initial Conditions
Before autopilot engagement (as shown), SV1 and SV2 are open and the
detent pistons are retracted by the disengage springs so the output crank is not
clamped to the servo actuator.
Engaged Conditions
When the autopilot is first engaged, the FCC energizes SV1. This supplies
hydraulic pressure to the EHSV and to SV2. With the EHSV enabled,
commands from the FCC synchronize the actuator piston with the output crank.
This is accomplished by using inputs from the autopilot LVDT and output LVDT.
With synchronizing complete and other engage requirements satisfied, the FCC
energizes SV2.

DESCRIPTION
Description
All three FCCs send this data to each EFIS symbol generator:
- Mode status
- Flight director commands
- Heading cursor.
Mode status and flight director commands show on the EADI. The heading
cursor shows on the EHSI. The EFIS symbol generators control the data source
selection. Autoland status LAND 3 or LAND 2 shows in green on the
Autoland Status Annunciator or ASA.
The autopilot disengage warning light signal from each flight control computer
goes to the panel light and the warning electronics unit. The warning electronics
unit causes the captain and first officer master warning lights to come on and
supplies the two-tone siren aural warning.
The autopilot caution light signal from each flight control computer goes to the
panel light and to each EICAS computer. The EICAS computer causes the
captain and first officer master caution lights to come on and
gives a signal to the warning electronics unit. The warning electronics unit
supplies the level B caution aural.
Autopilot disengage and autopilot caution message signals from each flight
control computer goes to each EICAS computer. The EICAS computer shows
the necessary level A or level B message on the applicable display unit.
Each flight control computer supplies autopilot multichannel operation status

signals during an approach mode to the captain and first officer autoland status
annunciators. The autoland status annunciators give four messages for the
different multi-channel operation conditions.

AFDS GENERAL - AUTOLAND STATUS ANNUNCIATORS

General
The autoland status annunciators provide information on degradation from a

triple redundant autoland capability.
Component Details
There is an upper and a lower display on each autoland status annunciator. The
upper display shows the autopilot system autoland status (when in multi-
channel autoland) and the lower display shows the degradation from land 3
capability.
Each display has three faces; blank face, A face, and B face. The displays
operate by magnetic coils. There are two test switches. Push TEST 1 to show
the upper and lower display A faces. Push TEST 2 to show the B faces. The
reset (P/RST) switch is used to clear the lower display (not during test).
EICAS Status Messages
A degraded autoland system failure that occurs below 200 feet shows as a NO
LAND 3 status message after these conditions are true:
- Airplane is on the ground.

- Ground speed is less than 40 knots.
- Autopilot is disconnected.

related operations are described for single, dual, and
triple channel selection.
Each FCC gives its status to the other FCCs on the cross channel data bus.
Use of its status and the status received from other FCCs supplies the
applicable display. Priority programming limits FCC output to one status signal.
Priority sequence is NO AUTOLAND, NO LAND 3, LAND 2, and LAND 3.
Display Groups
ASA displays are divided into two groups:
- Degradation
- Status and degradation.
Degradation displays are provided anytime from airplane on the ground prior to
takeoff until the airplane has descended to 1500 feet of final destination.
Status and degradation displays are provided after multi-channel engaged and
descent below 1500 feet until the airplane lands and the FCCs are disengaged.
Display Sequence
Displays and related functions are divided into these different areas:
- On ground
- In air, climb, or cruise
- Approach select
- Below 1500 feet
- Below 600 feet
- Below alert height
- Land and FCC disengage.
Each area contains displays for single fault and multiple fault conditions.
Automatic operation and manual operation that result from these conditions are
described.

from a different airplane 28 volt dc source.
The A channel is supplied by the left dc bus and the B channel is supplied by
the right dc bus. The A channel receives ARINC 429 data from the left and
center flight control computers (FCC) and from the thrust management
computer (TMC).
The B channel receives ARINC 429 data from the right and center flight control
computers and from the thrust management computer.
Each channel independently processes the 429 bus received data. The pilot
input front panel data drives its own ARINC 429 bus which transmits that data to
the appropriate receiving computers.
Front Panel Switches
Each channel receives data from each switch or encoder on the front panel.
Electrical isolation is maintained between each switch contact set and each
encoder's A and B channel outputs to ensure system redundancy.
The autopilot disengage bar and the autothrottle arm switch provide a positive
disengagement function.
Input and Output Discretes
A master test input to each channel allows for external testing of the lights for all
dot bars simultaneously.
Front Panel Displays
Each channel can control the common numerical displays since each channel's
bi-directional data buffers are connected together. Only a single channel will
provide data to the displays; the channel not in command is in the read mode
(high impedance) to avoid potential conflicts.

Elevator and Aileron Arm
The arm function is initiated by pressing the CMD pushbutton. This causes a
request to be transmitted via the data bus to the arm logic. When the arm state
is achieved, a solid state switch is closed, energizing the elevator/aileron arm
relay. This relay supplies 28v dc to energize the elevator and aileron arm
solenoids within the autopilot servos. The arm state is also transmitted to the
MCP to illuminate the CMD pushbutton.

INTERFACE - FCC CROSS-CHANNEL DATA

General
Digital data is transmitted cross-channel between FCCs for monitor, signal

selection, and synchronization. The analog discrete logic for servo engage and
detent trip also go on the cross-channel. They go to dedicated hardware to
provide a redundant path for failed FCC disengagement.
Digital Interfaces
The digital data buses are ARINC 429 high speed buses. Cross-channel bus
parameter labels generally are not identical to the respective source label. This
allows a simplified, combined cross-channel receive function.
Analog Discrete Interfaces
These discretes are either ground or 28v dc.

AFDS POWER DISTRIBUTION Autoland Status Annunciators (ASA) DC Power
General Distribution Each ASA uses two sources of dc power to provide the necessary power
redundancy.
The power distribution for the AFDS is organized around the three channel
configuration of the flight control computers, the dual configuration of the mode
control panel, and the dual requirements of the annunciation and caution and
warning designs.
Each FCC gets power from a separate ac and dc bus. The dc standby bus
provides the second source of annunciation and warning power to each FCC
and to each autoland status annunciator.
AFDS AC Power
The 115v ac primary power to each FCC is changed to 26v ac and used for
sensor excitation and to make several dc levels for the electronic circuits. An
automatic reset circuit breaker protects the 26v ac output. Lighting power (5v
ac) goes to the AFCS mode control panel and each autoland status annunciator
for background lighting.
FCC DC Power
Two external dc sources go to each FCC. The AFCS warning power dc and that
developed from the 115v ac power provide the dual sources necessary for
annunciation and warning.
AFCS MCP DC Power
The AFCS MCP uses two sources for logic power and two sources for master
dim and master test of the indicator lights. Each FCC SERVO dc goes through
the AFCS MCP to allow positive disengagement of the servos from the
AFCS MCP.
The left and right logic power dc inputs supply the left and right side AFCS MCP
electronics respectively. The left and right indicator power inputs provide the
power to the left half and right half of each dot bar display.

interruption from less than 0.05 seconds to 10 seconds, depending on the type
The bus isolation sigmal shows that the buses are isolated. All three channels
of failure.
have an independent source of power. The bus isolation condition is removed in
one of these three ways:
- Radio altitude is above 200 feet and a fault has been detected which results in
a NO LAND 3 condition
- After start of an auto go-around when the airplane is above 100 feet radio
altitude and a positive rate of climb has been established
- All autopilots are disconnected.
Generator Loss Above 200 Feet
Between arming of the three autopilots and 200 feet, the loss of a generator is
sensed by either the captain or first officer instrument bus voltage sensing unit.
Either unit energizes to keep the flight instrument transfer bus powered,
energize the dc tie relay (K108), and signals the FCCs that the buses are not
isolated (re-applies ground to bus isolate signal). The FCCs remove the
autoland bus isolate ground. This hanges the center buses back to left main ac
and dc buses. Also the bus tie breakers close to supply power to both main ac
buses.
Generator Loss Below 200 Feet
If a generator is lost below 200 feet radio altitude, the loss of generator is
sensed by either instrument bus voltage sensing unit. Either unit energizes as
previously discussed. Below 200 feet, the FCCs do not remove the autoland
bus isolate request (ground) and K122 remains energized. The three autopilots
remain isolated. Because of the generator loss, one of the autopilots is also lost,
and the automatic approach continues with the remaining two autopilots.
APU Generator Backup Power
If the APU generator is on during a multichannel approach, it supplies power to

the main ac bus of the failed generator, regardless of altitude.

AFDS GENERAL - POWER ISOLATION LOGIC

General
The purpose of the power isolation logic is to cause the power sources to
separate during a triple-channel approach.
The power isolation logic is set when these conditions are true:
- Triple channel arm - all three channels either engaged or armed

- None of the three channels make NO LAND 3 logic - Approach mode armed
- Airplane above alert height (>200 ft RA). Any of these conditons cause the
power isolation logic to reset:
- Total autopilot disconnect
- Any channel makes NO LAND 3 logic above alert height
- Go-around started.
Note: NO LAND 3 status will cause power isolation logic to be reset but
the reset of fail-operative capability will not restart power isolation
logic unless the approach mode or triple arm is disengaged and
reengaged. Through the power isolation circuits, NO LAND 3 logic
will be made if isolation does not occur within 4 seconds of the
request by the FCC and isolation will be reset and not requested
again.

THRUST MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - INTRODUCTION

General
The thrust management system controls engine thrust with mode requests from
these:
- Thrust mode select panel (TMSP)

- AFCS mode control panel (MCP)
- Flight management computing system (FMCS).
The thrust management computer (TMC) uses these mode requests to

calculate the autothrottle and thrust limit data.
The TMC also does continuous fault data management and on-ground
maintenance tests.
Description
The TMSP supplies thrust limit mode inputs to the TMC for thrust limit
calculations.
The MCP supplies autothrottle mode inputs to the TMC for throttle position data.
The FMC supplies data to the TMC to control the throttles and thrust limits.
Sensor Inputs
The TMC uses airplane, navigation, and engine sensors to calculate

autothrottle and thrust limit data.
Display Outputs
The TMC shows the autothrottle engage status and modes on the EADIs. It also
shows the thrust limit modes and values on EICAS.

TMS - THRUST MODE SELECT PANEL The reference thrust mode on EICAS changes from TO to D-TO when the
assumed temperature is the highest of the three. You can set the assumed
temperature from 0C to 70C.
General Description
The maximum derate is 25%.
The thrust mode select panel weighs 1.5 lb (0.7 kg) and measures 2.26 x 3.27 x
6.9 inches. Power comes from the TMC. There is no internal computer. The
panel uses an internal clock to make the ARINC 429 words.
Thrust Limit Mode Selection
You use the TMSP push-button for the necessary manual thrust limit mode. A
push-button for the currently selected mode has no effect.
The TO/GA push-button selects:
- Takeoff (TO) thrust limit mode if you push the TO/GA push-button when the
airplane is on the ground
- Go-around (GA) thrust limit mode if you push the TO/GA push-button when the
airplane is in the air.
Thrust Derate Selection
The thrust management system decreases the thrust limit with a fixed derate
schedule or an assumed temperature. You select fixed derate schedules with
the TMSP derate push-button 1 or 2.
You select an assumed temperature with the temperature selector (TEMP SEL).
When you turn the temperature selector one detent in one direction or the other,
and the flat-rated temperature shows as the selected temperature on EICAS,
TO stays as the mode annunciator.
The flat-rated temperature is the highest temperature at which the engine can
give maximum thrust. The TMC uses the highest of these three temperatures to
calculate the takeoff thrust limit:
- TAT
- Flat-rated
- Assumed.

FUNCTIONS
General
EICAS provides the displays for the TMC thrust limit functions.
Total Air Temperature and Selected Temperature Displays
Primary data source for total air temperature is the TMC. The ADC is the
secondary data source. Source for selected temperature is the TMC digital data
bus. Assumed temperature is selected on the thrust mode select panel which
goes the TMC.
Reference Thrust Mode
TO, GA, CON, CLB, CRZ, or MAN show in green for the mode. D-TO shows for
assumed temperature derated takeoff mode. 1 or 2 follows the mode for other
derated modes, white if preselected and green if active.
Manual Mode
When the manual thrust set knob is pulled out, the reference thrust mode MAN
is provided by the EICAS computer in green. The reference target cursors and
readouts are green and are controlled by the knob. Manual thrust limit is not
used by the TMC.
Reference/Target Cursor and Reference Limit Display
When the manual thrust set knob is pushed in, the cursor primary data source is
the FMC when VNAV is engaged (the cursor secondary data source is the
TMC) and the reference limit display data source is the TMC. The cursor is
magenta when controlled by the FMC and green when controlled by the TMC.
The reference limit display is always green.
Maximum Limit Marker
The primary data source is the EEC. The TMC is the secondary data source
and is used when the EEC data is invalid or the EEC ALTN light is on.

Autothrottle Functions
Thrust control uses N1. N1 protection uses the calculated N1 REF. MCP speed
selection or the FMC controls speed. Rate of climb/descent is controlled in FL
CH. The altitude change gives the vertical speed. Vertical speed is also
controlled in GA. The throttles
come back to the aft stops in the flare mode.
EEC trim control gives trim signals to the selected EEC to decrease small
differences in N1.
Thrust Limit Functions
The thrust limit section uses this data to calculate THRUST LIMIT REF and
MAX N1:
- Engine type
- Mode
- Flight conditions
- Aircraft configuration.
Input Signal Management
The input signal management gives signal source selection and validity monitor
for the digital and analog input signals.

LRU FAULT CONSOLIDATION
Purpose
One of the advanced features available with a system level maintenance

concept
is fault consolidation, where a failure indication may be examined on a system
basis to determine if a sensor or a wiring interface has failed.
LRU Failure
The upper diagram illustrates a failure case of the right inertial reference unit
which is isolated via the indicated logic equation.
Interface Failure
In the lower diagram, a wiring fault is indicated where the input to the FCC R
has been interrupted. By examining the condemnation status on a system
basis, the interface between the right IRU and FCC R is identified as faulty. This
will require deferred maintenance action but prevents the erroneous removal of
either the inertial reference unit or the right flight control computer.
Message Format
These fault consolidation routines are used to determine the bottom line portion
of flight fault messages.

for ground test diagnostics.
Number Allocation
The historical flight tag is defined as follows: 00 PRESENT FLT FAULTS - 01

LAST FLT FAULTS - 02-99 PREVIOUS FLT FAULTS
Faulty LRU
The bottom line of the MCDP flight fault message is the faulty LRU or group of
LRU's. The fault information provided on the bottom line of the display should
be sufficient for most unscheduled maintenance activities. A faulty LRU group
message consists of two LRU's with a slash between. The slash mark indicates
wiring may be at fault. The group message is used when the fault can not be
definitely isolated.

Description
The MCDP decodes diagnostic fault data received from the FCC, FMC and
TMC computers and provides for a display of a diagnostic message in the
