Remote Data Acquisition Unit NOTES


The remote data acquisition unit (RDAU) pro-
vides input/output processing of all data for the
three display units (Figure 31-4).

The RDAU is in the aft electrical compartment at


station 255 (Figure 31-4). The RDAU consists of
three individual computer channels. Each chan-
nel is dedicated to an individual display unit.

Channel A drives the copilot display unit; chan-


nel B drives the center display unit, and channel C
drives the pilot display unit. Each channel is
redundantly powered and powers its respective
display unit.

With the exception of fuel quantity and fuel


flow, each channel acquires and processes the
data independently. The No. 1 fuel quantity/fuel
flow interfaces with channel A (copilot only) and
the No. 2 fuel quantity/fuel flow interfaces with
channel C (pilot only). The data is then shared
between channels through a data bus within the
RDAU.

On the back of the RDAU is a single static port


for pressure altitude sensing and a maintenance
connector for factory programming and fault
clearing (Figure 31-5).

SYSTEM OPERATION NOTES
Upon initial power-up, each DU displays the
power-up/self-test page, which indicates the fol-
lowing (Figure 31-7):
• RDAU software version
• DU software version
• Aircraft model (C+ or C++)
• Position identification (Copilot/center/
pilot)
• Internal built-in test status (PASS or FAIL)
The power-up/self test is part of the built-in test
feature that continuously monitors system integ-
rity. If the power-up/self test indicates FAIL, a
FAIL message page appears (black letters on a red
background). The resulting fault code informa-
tion is entered into the FAULT CODE HISTORY
page.

The start-up page times out within 10 seconds


and then defaults to the following display page
formats:
• Performance displays (pilot and copilot
DUs)
• Engine display (center DU)
Pressing either IIDS REV switch cycles the IIDS
displays in a counterclockwise direction (rever-
sion), one position per actuation.

display is for OAT.
Each DU has the following features (Figure 31-8):
• A 3.5 in x 4.5 in sunlight readable active NOTES
matrix liquid crystal display (AMLCD)
panel
• Five function keys (one MENU button and
four softkeys)
• A bright/dim (BRT/DIM) rocker switch
• A press-to-test (TST) switch
• An ambient light sensor
Each DU also includes a self-contained dual pro-
cessor symbol generator, fluorescent lamp/heater
assembly, and power supply.

If the helicopter is operating in extreme cold


temperatures, the integral lamp heater does not
allow the liquid crystal display to illuminate until
the temperature of the unit is above a certain tem-
perature. During this time the display is blank. If
temperature is below –40⁰, this could take up to
five minutes. The lamp heater is powered from a
separate power source: DC essential bus for the
pilot and center DU and No. 1 DC primary bus
for the copilot display.

The DUs are multifunctional and can act as either


primary display: engine or performance. The
DUs can also display any of the available subpage
formats by command from the function softkeys.

The IIDS uses variable intensity fluorescent


lamp backlighting to illuminate the display. The
BRT/DIM rocker switch provides a pilot select-
able brightness setting suitable for day and night
operations. This is complemented by an ambient
light sensor to adjust for varying ambient light
conditions. The bezel lighting for the display units
comes from the respective dimmer unit controlled
by the cockpit rheostat (refer to Figure 31-1).

Composite Display NOTES


The composite display (Figure 31-12) is a combi-
n ation of performance and engine display. In
the event of a dual IIDS display failure, the pilot
can access the composite display on the one
remain- ing display to monitor all relevant
information. To access, press the MENU key on
any display unit for three seconds. If the
composite is already displayed, pushing the
MENU key reverts to the previous display.

The composite display has three areas. The


upper portion is a miniature of the engine page
with engine and transmission temperatures and
pressures along with hydraulic pressures. These
indications use the same convention as the nor-
mal engine page.

The center portion displays cautions and warn-


ings along with digital fuel quantity, fuel
totalizer, a nd OAT. Legends display in three
columns with three rows each. In the center
column, the top and bottom position is occupied
by fuel quantity and OAT respectively, so only
one warning or cau- tion can be displayed. A
dvisories do not display. Subpages such as the
power monitor page, power assurance
information, DECU faults, counters, and IIDS
faults are unavailable.

The bottom section is identical to the normal


performance page except that the lower portion
of the vertical scales has been removed. A com-
posite OEI display is provided in case an engine
fails while operating in the composite mode. All
scaling, color, boxing, and OEI logic are retained
in the composite displays.

tor. The main gear box parameters are moved
to provide display space while the fuel totalizer
and one half of the fuel quantity/flow display are
deleted.

A red arrow reminder appears in the T5 scale at


the maximum limit for starting. After complet-
ing the start and with ground idle established, if
appropriate, the pilot transitions to the perfor-
mance display for N1 and T5 information.

The engine start display disappears when any of


the following occur:
• Engine advanced above 65% N1
• Start of the other engine commanded
• MENU button pressed
If none of the above occurs, it disappears one

Reversion NOTES
Two IIDS REV reversion pushbuttons—one for
the pilot and one for the copilot—on the instru-
ment panel provide operational reversion. A
reversion capability compensates for failure of an
individual IIDS channel or display unit.

Actuation of the pilot or copilot IIDS REV button


(Figure 31-15) one time results in the following:
channel A (copilot) display shows engine display
information instead of performance information
and performance information displays on the
other remaining display. Pressing the IIDS REV
button again commands channel C (pilot) to
show engine display information. Pressing again
display engine information on the center display
(default position). This allows both engine and
performance information to be displayed if a sin-
gle channel/display fails. The displays retain full
capability.

Single Display Unit Failure


As a general rule, the pilot actuates the IIDS REV
switch one time to accommodate a display fail-
ure (Figure 31-15). If the copilot is flying, two
times is appropriate. For example, if the center
display failed, the pilot would command a single
reversion, and then continue flying by monitor-
ing performance parameters at the pilot position
while referring to the copilot position for engine
display information and caution/warning status.
Normal scan of condition related instruments at
the reverted display is expected, but the illumina-
tion of master caution draws specific attention to
the addition of a new caution or warning light.

If the pilot display fails, the example remains


the same except performance is monitored at
the center location. The copilot presses the IIDS
REV switch twice to force the engine display to
the pilot position/ He then continues with perfor-
mance instruments in the center or at the copilot
position as available.

the helicopter is on the ground with engines shut
off. The information available includes duration
in seconds and number of events that each engine
has experienced at 30-second and 2-minute power,
and the number of N1 and N2 cycles the engine
has logged. The 30-second and/or 2-minute usage
counts are divided into cumulative durations and
events and last flight durations and events. OEI
cumulative counters give a history of the total
time the engine has been at the indicated power
level and the total events that produced that time.
Last flight OEI counters show the duration and
event number for an OEI power occurrence dur-
ing the last flight only. Since there can be several
events of OEI power in one flight, the IIDS has
the capability of storing up to 20. The last flight
OEI counters are stored during shutdown and
reset during the next engine start.

Cumulative cycle counts show N1 and N2 cycles


that are recorded and stored for maintenance pur-
poses. When the cumulative cycle count reaches
999.9, it resets to zero. For that reason the engine
logbook is the actual cumulative cycle count for
the engine. The IIDS is used for reference for

WARNING/CAUTION/ NOTES
ADVISORY SYSTEM
The warning/caution/advisory system provides
visual indications of system malfunctions or nor-
mal operating conditions.

Caution/Warning Messages
The upper portion of the engine display is dedi-
cated to three columns of caution and/or warning
messages. There is space to display five messages
in each column (Figure 31-34).

The left column displays No. 1 system messages,


the right column displays No. 2 system messages.
The center column displays messages not asso-
ciated with either system. The messages appear
in chronological order of occurrence; the latest
event appears at the top of the column. If the
column has five legends when another occurs, the
earliest is pushed out of sight.

An arrow, color-coded to indicate the most


critical appears between columns to indicate
additional out-of-sight event legends. An amber
arrow indicates that at least one caution—and no
warnings—is out-of-view. A red arrow indicates
that at least one warning is out-of-view.

Remote scrolling switches on each collective grip


on the C+ or the barrier filter monitor panel on
the C++ (Figure 31-34) can retrieve displaced
legends. The remote scroll causes any overfilled
column to add one legend per actuation. As leg-
ends are retrieved from below, the ones at the top
are displaced above (annunciated by arrow). If a
new caution/warning occurs, it displays at the top.
This results in displacement below of retrieved
legends.

Additional cautions and warnings not shown fol-


low in whichever order the IIDS presents them.
Once initial power-on cautions and warnings are
reset, the system reverts to chronological order.

System advisories were discussed previously in


the performance display section of this chapter.

1 and No. 2 engine-out tone circuit. This interlock
prevents a reset requirement to silence engine-out
tone each time the BATT switch is in ON, EXT
POWER switch is ON, or engines operated below
ground idle.

The following relays on the No. 2 relay panel
(Figure 31-40) affect the audible-visual warning
system.

Engine Out Relays


The engine out warning system has four relays
associated with it.
• K11/2R—No. 1 engine out warning con-
trol relay
• K12/2R—No. 1 engine out audio warning
relay
• K13/2R—No. 2 engine out warning con-
trol relay
• K14/2R—No. 2 engine out audio warning
relay

Operation of the system is discussed in a later


section.

Warning Circuit Overview NOTES


Figure 31-41 presents an overview of both the
audible and visual warning system and master
warning system. Anytime an affected system
provides an input to the IIDS RDAU, the associ-
ated amber caution or red warning annunciation
illuminates on the engine display along with the
MASTER CAUTION PUSH TO RESET cap-
sules on both master warning panels.

The master caution can be extinguished by press-


ing the MASTER CAUTION PUSH TO RESET
capsule; however, the annunciation on the IIDS
display remain illuminates as long as the condi-
tion exists. This readies the master caution light
in the event of another caution or warning input.

Green advisories do not illuminate the master


caution light.

Landing Gear Warning NOTES


The tone generator, Air Data Accessory Unit
(ADAU), Air Data Computer (ADC), master
warning panel, landing gear panel, and landing
capsule all interface to provide audible and visual
indications for the landing gear warning system
(Figure 31-45).

A landing gear warning audible and visual warn-


ing is activated during flight if the landing gear
is not down and locked, airspeed is less than 60
knots, and radar altitude descends through 250
ft or below the set decision height (whichever is
highest). Pushing either the pilot or copilot LDG
GEAR UP PUSH TO RESET capsule discontin-
ues the audible warning, but the visual warning
continues until the landing gear is down and
locked, airspeed is increased to above 60 knots,
and radar altitude is increased to above 250 ft or
the set decision height (whichever is highest).
The ADC accessory unit performs the warning
activation logic (Figure 31-46).

Circuit Arming and Activation NOTES


With the UP-DN control lever on the landing gear
control/indicator panel in the DN position and
landing gear down left relay K8/1R energized, 28
VDC is applied to the ADC accessory unit gear
down logic input (Figure 31-47).

As the aircraft descends below 250 ft AGL, as


indicated on the RADALT, a ground input is pro-
vided to the Air Data Accessory Unit (ADAU).
The ADAU also receives a ground input via the
options relay panel from the pilot or copilot sym-
bol generators or RADALT indicator for decision
height input. The Air Data Computer (ADC) pro-
vides airspeed input to the ADAU.

If any of the following criteria is met and the


landing gear is not down and locked (gear down
logic input is absent), the landing gear warning
circuit is activated:
• Less than 60 knots from the ADC
• Below 250 ft AGL from the RADALT
• Below decision height (pilot, copilot or
RADALT indicator, whichever is highest)

When the activation criteria is met, the ADC


accessory unit applies an enabling ground to the
tone generator and supplies 28 VDC to the lamps
of the pilot and copilot landing gear up capsules.
The intermittent 250 Hz tone output from the
tone generator is supplied to the pilot and copilot
headsets.

The audible tone can be discontinued in both


headsets by pressing either pilot or copilot LDG
GEAR UP PUSH TO RESET capsules. When a
reset capsule switch is pressed, ground is applied
to the ADC accessory unit reset/test input that
then discontinues the enabling ground to the
tone generator. The LDG GEAR UP PUSH TO
RESET capsule remains illuminated as long as
the activation criteria is present.

Engine Out Warning NOTES


The engine-out circuit of the audible-visual warn-
ing system uses the engine out signal from the
IIDS or the engine DECU to provide an engine-
out warning (Figures 31-48 and 31-49). The signal
is active when the gas generator speed decreases
to less than 48% N1 or an engine out signal is
received from the engine DECU. A weight-on-
wheels switch inhibits the engine-out warning
when the helicopter is on the ground; however,
a complete functional test can be made with the
ENG OUT TEST switch on the RH side of the
lower console.

In the following, the No.1 engine out malfunction


is used to describe the circuit action. The No. 2
engine circuit is identical.

If the No. 1 engine fails in flight, the IIDS No.


1 engine out-ground input receives a ground
signal from the No. 1 digital engine control unit
(DECU). The IIDS responds by providing a 28
VDC output signal that causes the NO.1 ENG
OUT PRESS-TONE OFF capsule of the respec-
tive master warning panel to illuminate.

This provides a visible malfunction warning


directly in view of both pilots. The 28 VDC also
is provided through the closed contacts of the No.
1 engine out warning control relay K11/2R to
energize the No. 1 engine out warning audio relay
K12/2R. With K12/2R energized, an enabling
ground is provided through the closed contacts
of the weight-on-wheels relay K14/1R to the tone
generator to generate an alternating tone.

The DECU can also activate the engine out warn-


ing circuit directly by energizing the No. 1 engine
out relay K31/2R. With K31/2R energized, 28
VDC is available through the closed contacts
of K31/2R to illuminate the NO.1 ENG OUT
PRESS-TONE OFF capsules. A ground is also
provided to the tone generator through the same
path previously mentioned.

The alternating tone can be discontinued in both NOTES


headsets by pressing either pilot or copilot NO.1
ENG OUT PRESS-TONE OFF capsule. Circuitry
for the No. 1 engine is described in the following
(Figure 31-50). When the reset switch is closed
by pressing the NO.1 ENG OUT PRESS-TONE

trol relay K11/2R is energized. With K11/2R
energized, the No. 1 engine out warning audio
relay K12/2R deenergizes to remove the alternat-
ing tone ground enable from the tone generator.
A second set of contacts within K11/2R close to

Figure 31-52. ENG OUT TEST Switch

FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY 65-90


Chapter 31 Sikorsky S76 C++

Engine-Out Test Switch NOTES


A weight-on-wheels condition disables the
engine-out warning system. This prevents the
need to reset the engine-out tone each time exter-
nal power is applied to the helicopter or each time
the engines are operated below IDLE.

With the helicopter on the ground, the weight-on-


wheels relay K14/1R is energized from the weight
on wheels proximity sensor (Figure 31-51). Con-
tacts within K14/1R open to interrupt the path to
the alternating tone input of the tone generator.
This prevents the generation of an engine-out
audible warning while on the ground.

The ENGINE OUT TEST switch on the right side


of the center console (Figure 31-52) bypasses the
weight-on-wheels interlock to allow for a static
test—engines not running—of the engine-out
tone. Setting the switch to TEST generates an
alternating tone in both headsets if an ENG OUT
capsule is illuminated.

Pressing the face of either capsule interrupts the


alternating tone supplied to the headsets in the
same manner as normal operation.

FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY 65-92


Chapter 31 Sikorsky S76 C++

COCKPIT VOICE The unit is shock mounted in the aft electrical


compartment and has an external underwater
RECORDER SYSTEM locator beacon (ULB) mounted to its front.

GENERAL
NOTES
The cockpit voice recorder (CVR) system
records all voice signals transmitted or received
by the pilot and copilot as well as cabin page
announcements.

The system simultaneously records four separate


voice inputs into a solid state memory array. These
inputs may either be transmitted or received sig-
nals originating from the following stations: pilot,
copilot, and cockpit area microphone.

COMPONENTS
The CVR system has the following components:
• Recorder unit
• Control panel
• Area microphone
• Inertia switch
• Main rotor NR speed sensor magnetic
pickup
• Relay panels
• Float switch

Recorder Unit
The recorder unit contains the recorder assembly
and associated electronics (Figure 31-53). The
unit maintains a recording of the last 30 minutes
of conversation and main rotor speed.

The unit uses a solid state flash memory array to


record four separate voice inputs simultaneously
onto a four track tape. The duration of the mag-
netic tape is approximately 80 minutes.

The unit receives 28 VDC from the essential bus


in the DC junction box through the CVR circuit
breaker CB10/DC; it also receives power via nor-
mally closed contacts on the CVR relay panel.

Relay K42 is energized after a ground enabling
circuit from the weight-on-wheels relay K14/1R
is established. Once energized, a set of contacts
close to enable the bulk erase circuit. Pressing
the ERASE pushbutton on the control panel per-
forms the bulk erase function. Relay K42 receives
28 VDC from the VOICE RECORDER circuit
breaker on the DC junction box.
