Safety Precautions
Safety Precautions
The following general safety notices supplement the specific warnings and cautions appearing
elsewhere in this manual. These are recommended precautions that must be understood and
applied during operation and maintenance of the equipment covered herein. Should situations
arise that are not covered by safety precautions given, consult the proper local authority.
(1) Under no circumstances should a person operate or maintain this equipment without
the immediate presence or assistance of another person capable of rendering aid.
(2) Personnel working with or near high voltages must be familiar with modern methods
of resuscitation. In the event of electrical shock, always:
(a) Remove power.
(b) Administer first aid treatment.
(c) Summon assistance.
(3) In the event of fire, carry out the procedures provided in your local fire code.
(4) All operation and maintenance personnel should be familiar with the location and
function of the emergency shutdown switches. They should also be familiar with the
emergency procedures needed to remove power from damaged equipment.
(5) The simulator has voltages that are dangerous and may be fatal if contacted by
operation or maintenance personnel.
(6) Do not energize equipment unless safety grounds have been established; failure to do
so may result in electrical shock to the operator.
(7) Do not place a finger over a leak to determine the extent of a leakage. High pressure
spray can puncture the skin and enter the bloodstream. High pressure spray is
potentially explosive.
(8) Before starting the motion system, ensure that the area around the simulator envelope
is clear of personnel and that all loose objects are secured.
(9) If, at any time, a safety hazard is detected, it is the responsibility of the individual to
report the hazard to ensure it is corrected.
(10) All personnel in the flight compartment are to be fastened with seat belts.
(11) Do not adjust the seat(s) when the motion system is on.

3.1 IOS Pages Overview
The IOS pages enable you to view and operate the various simulator controls and
settings. The control information and performance readouts are grouped by category.
The pages consist of touch-select areas, non-volatile comments, and volatile fields in
which the status or value of variables appear.
To access an IOS page, select the appropriate category tab and then select the page
you would like to display (Figure 8).
There are two types of page select functions: discrete and variable. Discrete functions,
are turned on or off by pressing the appropriate button. When a discrete function is
selected the button turns green. Variable functions, which may be selected to any
value within a predefined range, are modified by touching the appropriate button,
entering a value through the displayed keypad or slider, and then pressing the EXEC
button. When a variable function is selected the button turns yellow.
A pop-up page displays a window that contains additional controls. A window icon at
the bottom right of a button indicates that a pop-up page will display when selecting
that function. When exiting the pop-up page, you are automatically returned to the
original page.
The footer area at the bottom of all IOS pages includes buttons that are related to the

controls for commonly used functions.
Item Description
FLIGHT FREEZE Displays status and selection activates/deactivates flight

freeze.
(a) When flight freeze is active, the following occurs:
(b) All flight parameters (i.e., pitch, bank, heading,
airspeed) freeze.
(c) Altitude and position freeze.
(d) The motion system freezes except for washout as
predicted by the flight conditions at the moment of
freeze.
(e) Sound level decreases.
IOS Page System

26 Dec 2012
Page 21
Item Description
Most simulated aircraft systems remain unaffected and

continue to follow crew actions and malfunction insertions
except for the effects of frozen altitude and position
parameters. Release of flight freeze does not cause violent
control or motion movements, irrespective of whether the
autopilot is on or off and independent of the control
positions at the moment of unfreeze.
During a reposition, the flight freeze button is dark until the

reposition or flight trim is completed. Should changes to
the following parameters be made while flight freeze is on,
the respective effects will not occur until flight freeze is
removed:
• temperature
• pressure
• wind
• cloud altitude ramping
CAPTURE FLIGHT Displays status and selection creates a flight capture into
the indicated capture slot. The button is dark if a capture,
recall, reposition, or slew is active or if the aircraft is
moving while on the ground.
SPEED UP XXX Displays status and selection allows input of the ground
speed, speed up factor. Selection maintains current
indicated airspeed but increases ground speed rate by the
speed up factor. The speed up factor does not affect
altitude. (Min = 1, Max = Dynamic)
The button will flash when the aircraft cannot maintain a

selected speed up factor. Although the speed up factor
displayed on the button does not change, the speed up
factor used in the simulation automatically reverts back to
one in conditions where LNAV is engaged and the roll or
pitch exceed reasonable angles. The purpose is to force
back a normal speed to allow the aircraft to follow the
flight plan properly in the critical phases of the flight plan.
Please note the fuel consumption follows the speed up
factor.
This button is dark when position slew is active.

3.2.45 Airport/En Route Environment

The Airport/En Route Environment page allows the instructor to define environment
conditions at 5 different airports, as well as en route weather conditions. There are
two different modes which determine when multiple weather airport conditions will
be copied to the ambient weather conditions. The first mode uses distance to airport.
The specific airport conditions are copied into ambient weather conditions when the
A/C is within 50 NM from that airport. If en route conditions are defined, then they
will be copied into ambient weather conditions when the A/C is flying outside the 50
NM radius of any of the 5 defined airports. Therefore, if any airport for which no
weather conditions are defined, becomes the reference airport, the en route weather
conditions will apply to the ambient weather conditions at that airport.
The second mode uses the reference airport that is specified on the reposition page.
When the reference airport matches a multiple weather airport, the specific airport
conditions are copied into ambient weather conditions. If en route conditions are
defined, then they will be copied into ambient weather conditions when the reference
airport on the reposition page does not match a multiple weather airport.
The buttons that call the popup menu to define the environment for an individual
airport or en route will highlight when the aircraft is in that region. The airport/en
route environment popup buttons are dark when the airport for that button is not
defined or the en route is not activated.
