Central Maintenance Computer System


General ACARS

There are two Central Maintenance Computers (CMCs) installed. Both CMCs CMCS fault data can be downlinked to a ground station through ACARS. The
receive and store fault information. Both CMCs send test commands. CMCS can receive an uplink request for fault data. The CMCS responds with
the requested fault data.
IDS
Software Data Loader Panel
The Integrated Display System (IDS) monitors aircraft systems operation.
The IDS shows failure conditions in the form of Flight Deck Effects (FDEs). Operational software goes to the CMCS from the software data loader panel.
Flight deck effects can be EICAS messages or EFIS flags. The IDS sends CMCS fault data can also record onto a floppy disk through the software data
FDEs and failure information to the CMCs. The CMCs evaluates the failure loader panel.
information to determine which failures cause each FDE. The CMCs correlate
the failures with FDEs and record the fault message, with its correlated FDE,
into memory. This helps maintenance personnel to isolate faults and correct
log book reports.

Some systems report failures directly to the CMCs.

CDUs

The Control Display Units (CDUs) act as keyboards for the CMCS. Fault
messages show on the CDUs. System tests are also started from the CDUs.
Test results show on the CDUs.

Printer

CMCS fault information can be printed on the multiple input printer.

Ground Test Enable Relays - 1


The ground test enable relays provide added protection to inhibit some LRU
system tests.

There are eight ground test enable relays. The relays energise when either
the GND TESTS switch or the remote GND TESTS switch is in the ENABLE
position.

In the energised position, ground tests are enabled by one of two ways:

• A ground test enable discrete goes through one of the relays to the
LRU.
• A CMCS ground test command discrete goes through one of the relays
to the LRU.

For the Air Data Computers (ADCs), the CMCS ground test discrete outputs
go through a ground test enable relay and an air/ground relay before going to
the respective ADC.

The EFIS/EICAS Interface Units (EIUs) monitor the status of the ground test
enable relays. When any relay is energised, the status message GND TESTS.
ENABLE shows on the auxiliary EICAS display. The EIUs monitor relays 4, 6,
7 and 8, directly. Other systems monitor the status of the other relays and
send the information to the EIUs. The systems which monitor the relays are:

• Relay 1 - Brake System Control Unit (BSCU)


• Relay 2 - Proximity Switch Electronics Unit (PSEU)
• Relay 3 - left Window Heat Control Unit (WHCU)
• Relay 5 - Stabiliser Trim/Rudder Ratio Modules (SRMs)

An ATE (Automatic Test Equipment) connector on the front of the unit may be
used to access CMC stored information.
Characteristics

Each CMC:

• Weighs 17 pounds
• Can generate a maximum of 6500 different fault messages
• Can store 500 faults in nonvolatile memory (CMC fault history)
• Has a 300-pin connector on the back of the unit

Testing

When power is first applied, each CMC does a power-up BITE. If a failure is
found, a message shows in the CDU scratch pad.

Flight Phase Screening

The CMCS is programmed with message logic for every CMCS fault
message. The message logic causes the CMCS to generate a fault message
when the conditions defined in the logic are true. Part of the message logic
for each fault message is a list of valid flight phases for that fault. When a
fault occurs, the CMCs checks the flight phase list for the fault and determines
if the current flight phase is in the operational region of the fault. If the fault
occurs during a flight phase that is not within the normal operating region of
the system, then the message does not show in present leg faults. This
prevents nuisance messages from occurring as a result of normal operation.

FIM - Fault Code Index


General

The fault isolation manual (FIM) provides a guide to isolate faults. The FIM is
divided into ATA chapters. Each chapter is divided into six sections. The fault
code index is one of the sections.

Fault Code Index

The fault code index lists all the eight digit fault codes for each ATA chapter.
These are the same codes as the Fault Reporting Manual (FRM) codes. The
codes are listed in numerical order. The first two digits of each code represents
the ATA chapter.

Each Flight Deck Effect (FDE) has it’s own fault code. For most fault codes
related to a FDE, the fault code index directs the operator to the CMCS present
leg faults.

The fault code index lists all the CMCS fault messages that can be correlated
to the respective FDE.

Flight Leg Logic


General

The flight leg logic defines the flight leg period. There are no time gaps between
flight legs, when one ends the next flight leg begins.

Flight leg Transition Logic

A flight leg normally begins when the first engine starts with the aircraft on the
ground. If, however, the engines are not shut down from the previous flight,
then the flight leg starts when the last door transition goes from open to close.

Flight Leg Enable Logic

The flight leg enable is used to prevent nuisance flight legs from occurring
because of engines start and shutdown or doors open and closed. Once the
enable occurs, it is stored and not used until the flight leg transition logic is
satisfied. Once the flight leg enable is used, a new one must occur before the
next flight leg transitions.

The flight leg enable occurs when takeoff thrust is applied with the parking
brake released. The enable goes to a flip flop where it is “latched”. The output
of the flip flop remains high until the flight leg transition logic is satisfied. When
the flight leg transition logic goes high, the flip flop is cleared. The output of
the flip flop then remains low until the flight leg enable logic is satisfied again.

Flight Phases
General

The CMCS receives aircraft systems data from the EFIS/EICAS interface
units (EIUs) to determine when the aircraft enters the various flight phases. A
two letter flight phase designator shows on CMCS fault messages to indicate
which flight phase a fault first becomes active.
The CMCS also sends out the flight phase information to other aircraft systems.

Maintenance Period

The maintenance period is defined as Shutdown (SD), Power On (PO) and


Preflight (PF) flight phases. If a fault occurs during the maintenance period, it
is considered a non-determined fault. Non-determined faults are neither Hard
(HRD) nor Intermittent (INT). For a non-determined fault, the portion of the
fault message the normally indicates HRD or INT is blank.

Non-determined faults become HRD when the flight leg transitions (first engine
start). If the fault then goes away before the beginning of the next maintenance
period, it becomes INT.

powers up, it checks the stored tail ID number with the number it is currently
receiving from the EIUs. If the numbers do not match, the fault history for that
CMC is automatically erased.

Crosstalk and Software Data Loader Interface


Crosstalk

The left and right CMCs monitor each other through crosstalk buses. This
allows them to monitor for failure conditions and to compare fault histories.

Software Data Loader

The CMCS software may be loaded on or off the aircraft. The software data
loader allows the CMCS software to be loaded on the aircraft. The CMCS
software consists of two parts:

• Operational software (the operating software which causes the CMCs


to perform all their normal functions).

• Airline database software (notes/help text that is airline unique data to


aid the operator with various information during CMCS operation).

Only one CMC can be loaded at a time. To program a CMC, select a CMC
with the software data loader switch. The software data loader sends a ground
enable discrete through the switch to the selected CMC. The data output of
the software data loader goes to both CMCs. The selected CMC reads the
data input and sends a data accept response out on its crosstalk output. The
crosstalk output goes through the software data loader switch to the software
data loader. This starts the data transfer. Since the other CMC does not receive
the enable discrete, it ignores its software data loader input. Loading indications
show on the software data loader front panel.

Fault data can be recorded onto a floppy disk inserted in the software data
loader. This is part of the normal data output and uses the same output as the
printer. It does not pass through the software data loader.

normal conditions and to help with non-normal conditions.

The flight crew completes the electronic checklist item by item on a READ
and DO basis. These are the three types of checklists:

· Normal checklists (for example, PREFLIGHT and BEFORE START)


· Non-normal checklists related to an EICAS message (for example, ENG
FAIL L and FIRE APU)
· Non-normal checklists not related to an EICAS message (for example,
GEAR LEVER LOCKED DN and VOLCANIC ASH).

Normal checklist are organised by phase of flight. The flight crew uses them
to verify that important procedural steps have been done.

Non-normal checklists contain steps to correct a condition. A square box


shows in front of an EICAS message when the message is related to a non-
normal checklist and the checklist is not complete. There are also non-normal
checklists not related to an EICAS message. These are called unannunciated
checklists.

Electronic Checklist Operation

Normal and non-normal electronic checklists show on any Multi Function


Display (MFD). Push the CHKL switch on the Display Select Panel (DSP) to
show a checklist.

General Closed Loop and Open Loop Items

Use the active Cursor Control Device (CCD) to control the checklist. The checklist function monitors the position of switches, controls and other
data in the flight deck. Checklist items that are monitored by the checklist
Checklist Menu Bar function are called closed loop items. Checklist items that are not monitored
are called open loop items.
Use the NORMAL and NON-NORMAL menu selection on the checklist menu
bar to show a list of all normal or non-normal checklists. Closed loop (monitored) items are checklist items that automatically show
complete when the boolean state of the applicable line item goes true.
Use the RESETS menu selection to show a list of checklist reset options and
the Airline Modifiable Information (AMI) software part numbers. Closed loop items show as checkmarks with no gray checkboxes.

Command Keys Open loop (not monitored) items show as a gray checkbox. Use the CCD
cursor activation switch to set open loop items complete.
These are the six command keys that control the checklists:
Line Item and Active Area Highlight Boxes
· NORMAL shows the next normal checklist
· ITEM OVRD overrides the highlighted checklist item. An overridden item After the flight crew makes a checklist selection, a line item highlight box
changes colour to cyan shows on the first line item that is not complete. The line item highlight box
· NOTES key shows if the checklist has more information for the flight has a thin line width which goes around the text of the checklist line item.

General

Operational notes give information about the effects of failures that occur
during the flight. Operational notes include:

· Inoperative equipment
· Limitations
· Notes.

To access operational notes, select the NOTES command key. The NOTES
selection shows on the lower part of the display unit when information that
has a relation to a non-normal condition is important. Operational notes are
available throughout the rest of that flight.

Each operational note includes a title which is the same as the EICAS
message.

A paging panel shows if the operational notes have more than one page.

Operational notes latch to the state of the non-normal condition. When the
condition and EICAS message goes away, the operational note goes away.

Checklist Landing Preparation Feature
Landing Preparation Functions

Many non-normal checklists contain landing preparation line items also known
as deferred line items. These items have a relation to the approach and landing
phases of flight. The landing preparation information includes:

· Inoperative equipment
· Limitations
· Landing preparation procedures
· Conditional statements
· Notes.

If a non-normal checklist has deferred items, they show on a subsequent


normal checklist.

A non-normal checklist that contains deferred items is complete when all line
items before the deferred items are complete. The message CHECKLIST
COMPLETE EXCEPT DEFERRED ITEMS shows on the bottom of the
checklist.

On the normal checklists, each set of deferred items refers to the EICAS
message that caused the original non-normal checklist. A line makes a
separation of the deferred items from both the originating non-normal checklist
and the approach or landing normal checklist.

If a non-normal condition occurs after the normal checklist is complete, the


non-normal checklist is not complete until all items including the deferred
items are complete.

Checklist Conditional Statements
General

These are the two different types of conditional statements for non-normal
checklists:

· Closed loop (automatic switch and system input)


· Open loop (manual input from the pilot).

Conditional statements have an IF-THEN structure.

Open Loop If Statement

Open loop IF statements include the selections YES and NO. Use the CCD
to place the cursor adjacent to the YES/NO line and make a selection to
answer the statement. If the answer to the IF statement is yes, the cursor
moves to the first line item within the IF statement to be completed. If the
answer to the IF statement is no, the line item turns cyan to show that the
item is not applicable.

Closed Loop If Statement

Closed loop IF statements are similar to open loop IF statements with one
difference. In closed loop IF statements, the YES and NO decision is made
automatically by the checklist function which monitors aircraft system status.
If the condition is yes, the cursor moves to the first line item within the IF
statement to be completed. If the condition is no, the IF statement is satisfied
and turns cyan to show that the item is not applicable.
