General
There are two identical electronic clocks one for the captain and one for the

The clock system consists of
− two digital clocks
− two remote push button
The following indications are possible:
− GMT (Greenwich Mean Time also known as UTC)
− DATE (day, month and year)
− CHR Time (chronographic display)
− ET (elapsed time)

FDRS / ACMS
Because they put together the function of DFDRS and ACMS in one box, the
unit is called DFDAMRU (Digital Flight Data and Management Recording Unit).
In the question of power supply, location and some handling we can’t divide this
two systems, but generally they have two individually duties and use therefor
different associated systems:
 The DFDRS (Digital Flight Data Recording System) fulfil assignments for
the authority, by recording of important (mandatory) Parameters, which are
realized by the FDAU-part of the DFDAMRU and the following systems
− DFDR, Digital Flight Data Recorder
− ACC, three axis accelerometer
− Flight Recorder Test Module
− Event Push Button.
An ULB (Under Water Locator Beacon) is strapped to the DFDR.
 The ACMS (Aircraft Conditioning Monitoring System) fulfil assignments of
continuous control of essential Engine−Data for Engine Condition Monitoring
and other flight data and aircraft data, which is realized by the use of the

FLIGHT DATA RECORDER UNDERWATER LOCATOR BEACON (ULB)


The flight data recorder stores the output data for the last 25 hours of airplane The ULB is a battery operated unit that transmits pulses when immersed in wa-
operation. Data is stored on the 1/4−inch wide magnetic tape. The tape and ter. The ULB has a detection range of 2,000 to 4,000 yards and an operating
transport are located in a 1/2 ATR crash−proof container within the flight data life of approximately 30 days.
recorder.
Some aircraft have Fairchild Recorders without a magnetic tape, but with a
solid state memory.
The Fairchild SSFDR uses data compression to store aircraft flight information.
The data is compressed by the compression/store data acquisition circuit card.
The data is stored in the crash survivable store unit. The crash survivable
store unit is a hardened cubical where the memory chips are located. The
SSFDR will store 25 hours of data.
The tape transport assembly protects the recorded data against fire and im-
pact. This protection includes an inner aluminum cover, isothermal protection
shield, an outer stainless steel casing and an exterior stainless steel dust
cover. This design enables the flight data recorder to meet a test of 20,000
pounds of crush per axis, and provides impact protection of 1000 g’s for 5
msec. When the equipment is subjected to high thermal environments the iso-
thermal insulation maintains the inner chamber at a safe temperature.
The front panel of the flight data recorder has a test connector and an under-
water locator beacon (ULB). The test connector lets you attach a portable tes-
ter or a copy recorder to the flight data recorder. The ULB transmits an ultra-
sonic signal when it is under water. There are no electrical connections
between the ULB and the flight data recorder. A battery within the ULB sup-
plies the ULB with power.

QUICK ACCESS RECORDER (QAR)


The QAR is a 3/8 ATR container weighing 6.25 kg and is on the electri-
cal equipment shelf E2−1. The QAR records maintenance data from the
FDAU through an electrical connector on the rear of the unit when the
AIDS power is applied.
The QAR consists of a removable tape cartridge, power supply, electronic con-
trol circuits, and tape deck assembly with motor. The front panel contains
three indicator lights:
The red FLAG indicator illuminates to indicate FAILURE DETECTED The
green TRACK 1 indicator illuminates while track 1 is in use The red TAPE LOW
indicator illuminates at the beginning of track 12
The QAR records the data sequentially on twelve tracks. The tape speed of
1.19 cm/sec corresponds to a data rate of 768 bits per second (bps) for a total
recording time of 50 hours.
A memory circuit provides positive memory of tape direction and track number
during power off periods.
The tape drive stops automatically at the end of the last track to prevent eras-
ing previously recorded data by re−recording the same segment of tape.
When a tape cartridge is extracted, the track memory circuit is automatically
reset to track 1. A front panel push button is also provided for manual reset to
track 1.
The front panel access door must be properly closed before the QAR will oper-
ate. The tape cartridge contains 180m of 1/2 inch wide 3M tape.

DFDR ADJUSTMENT / TEST


This procedure has many tasks. The first task is the Operational Test (BITE
Test) of the flight data recorder system.
The second task is the is the System Test of the flight data recorder system.

Operational Test
The operational test will control the capability of the function or monitoring pos-
sibilities of
 NORM-TEST-Switch,
 FR-OFF-Light,
 MASTER CAUTION Light,
 Oil Pressure Input,
 AIR / GND-Input,
 DFDR FAIL Light at the DFDAMRU.

System Test
The system test has procedures to do tests of all the inputs to the flight data
recorder system. You can do the tests out of sequence. You can do each test
independently.
To do the system test, much time can be necessary. A different procedure,
which makes sure the system writes the parameters correctly, is the copy re-
corder procedure (Ref 31−24−00/201).
The tests in the procedure are written to the BOEING standard application soft-
ware. If customized software is installed part of the test may look different.

ACMS GENERAL
The main function of the ACMS (Aircraft Condition monitoring System) is to
process continuously condition monitoring for various A/C systems to do an
 Engine Condition Monitoring (EGM),
 Aircraft Performance Monitoring (EPM),
 APU Condition Monitoring (ACM).
A part of the process is used for creating various A/C condition reports. These
reports are available for maintenance purposes :
 as a hard-copy from the PRINTER,
 on ground via ACARS (if installed).
A Remote Print Button is installed on the cockpit pedestal. An activation of
this button causes a flight phase dependent Print Report.
The ACMS calculation and report management is realized in the DMU-part of
the DFDAMRU.
The SAR-function (Smart Airborne Recorder) is an integrated part of the DMU.
This function is based on a nonvolatile ’’Solid State Mass Memory’’ module.
Because of the use of SAR, no QAR is installed.
SAR data are retrievable with floppy disks by using the MDDU (Multi Disc Drive
Unit).
The MDDU (or sometimes a Portable Data Loader, PDL) are used for
 automatic retrieving of reports and SAR files.

STATUS
The STATUS-Menu makes a Fault-Recognition possible for
 DFDAU, the FDAU-part of the DFDAMRU,
 DFDR and
 DMRU, the DMU-part of the DFDAMRU.
In case of an inactive DFDR the advice
 OFF appears in Flight Mode 1 (A/C on GND),
 FAIL appears in Flight Mode 2-9 (A/C in FLT).
By selecting the sub menu <DFDR a DFDR STATUS page appears with the
possible advices
 DFDR OUTPUT INTERFACE FAIL,
 DFDR NO PLAYBACK ( which is normal by an deenergized flight recorder
on ground ).
Sub menus <DFDAU and <DMRU contain possible faults in coded forms.
Sub menu ACMS IDENT > gives free the installed software, which is divided
into
 DFDR Data Frame Software,
 DMU Operational Program and

DITS CALL UP
Every aircraft parameter, received on a ARINC 429 bus, is selectable by using
 BUS-number (the port number of the DFDAMRU input port),
 LABEL and
 SDI (optional).
The raw value of the parameter is displayed and if the parameter has an alpha
call-up, it is displayed with the engineering unit value.
The parameter value is refreshed once per second.
If the parameter hasn’t been refreshed on the ARINC 429 bus in previous two
seconds then the display field contains dashes (--- ).
NOTE: IF THE FIELDS ARE NOT CORRECT, TWO TYPES OF MES-
SAGES MAY BE DISPLAYED:
 INVALID FORMAT, if the character do not correspond to what is expected
( letter, label not octal, , sdi not binary, not enough fields).
 INVALID DATA, if the data itself are not significant ( label greater than 377,
bus that does not exist ).

SOFTWARE LOADING DFDR Data Frame Software


The systems FMC, ACARS and ACMS get their actual software via diskette- DFDAMRU P/N ED44B310
loading.
This loading will be made
 by an AIRBORNE DATA LOADER All
or, if no data loader is installed,
 by a PORTABLE DATA LOADER, inclusive
 DATA LOAD CONTROL PANEL.
Three types of softwares can be loaded: DFDAMRU P/N ED44B510
 DFDR Data Frame Software
 Operational Software (DMU Ops Program Software) and
 Customer Software (Data Base Software)
All
ADVICE:
Have attention to the procedure, which software loading shall be used after Re-
moval/Installation of the DFDAMRU.
