CABIN LIGHTING
The cabin lighting consists of four strips of fluorescent lamps.
In each cabin zone, the four strips are divided into two pairs for controls
purposes (inboard pair = CEILING lights and outboard pair = WINDOW
lights).
Each strip consists of many fluorescent lamps. Each fluorescent lamp is
installed in a lampholder with an integral ballast unit.
ENTRANCE AREA LIGHTING
The entry areas are illuminated by fluorescent lamps installed in ceiling
panels. Each fluorescent lamp is installed in a lampholder with an integ-
ral ballast unit.
LAVATORY LIGHTING
Each lavatory lighting consists of a fluorescent lamp.
A fluorescent lamp and an integral ballast unit are installed in each lava-
tory, adjacent to the mirror.
PASSENGER READING LIGHTS
The reading lights are installed in the Passenger Service Units (FSUs)

PASSENGER READING LIGHTS
The Forward Attendant Panel controls the activation of the passenger
reading lights. The related DEU provides DC control power for individual
switching.
It also allows testing of the lights.

A 6 V battery supplies the loads whenever the system is not selected
OFF and the power supply from the essential busbar is not available. The
essential busbar charges the battery through the 28 V DC/6 V DC unit con-
verter.
Whenever the ambient temperature falls below +20 DEG. C (68 DEG. F)
the 28 V DC essential busbar provides electrical heating for the battery. The
battery is changed without removal of the power supply unit.
A test circuit tests the condition of the unit battery, the unit logic and the re-
lated loads. The battery test procedure starts after coding selection when
the TEST EMER LIGHT BAT membrane switch on the programming and
test panel 110RH (CIDS) is pushed.
If all batteries are serviceable, the annunciator BAT OK adjacent to
the membrane switch comes on. The system test procedure starts when
the TEST EMER LIGHT SYS membrane switch on the programming and
test panel 110RH is pushed. The test circuit carries out an interrogation of
the units and monitors the output current.
If all units are serviceable the annunciator SYS OK adjacent to the mem-
brane switch comes on. This test loop completes only when all unit output

currents are within the expected value. An individual test on each power
supply unit must be carried out when either the BAT OK or SYS OK annun-
ciator does not come on.
The individual test starts when the pushbutton on the unit is pushed. A de-
fective unit will cause a red LED on the unit to come on. A green light in
the LED indicates a serviceable power supply unit. There are three pairs of
red and green LEDs. One pair provides indication of defects in the external
loads (i. e. slides, overwing lights).
