Instructor’s Operating Manual
Introduction
1. Introduction
The Instructor Operating Station (IOS) includes all the tools necessary to control the
simulator training environment and monitor all aspects of crew performance in the
simulator.
Before browsing through this manual, please refer to the Safety User Guide for all
safety related information and the Startup and Shutdown Guide for information
related to the startup and shutdown of the simulator.

Instructor’s Operating Manual
Instructor Station Configuration
The basic hardware components of the IOS are explained in the following sub-
sections.
Two observer seats are also provided, one identical to the instructor seat and the other
a non-adjustable folding jumpseat positioned at the rear of the flight compartment.
The Motion Off button returns the simulator to its rest position in a controlled
manner, lowers the crew access platform, and deactivates the flight controls.
The Emergency Power Off button cuts off electrical power to the power cabinet,
shutting off the motion and control loading systems. The simulator returns to its rest
position in a controlled manner and the crew access platform lowers. For further
information on the Emergency Power Off button, please refer to the Safety User
Guide.
The positioning of the LCDs may be adjusted in a variety of ways. Press and hold the
button on the handle of the lower LCD (shown in red in the figure below) to rotate the
LCDs in tandem. Release the button to lock the LCDs into place. Each LCD can also
be tilted forwards, backwards or sideways by firmly grasping the LCD and tilting it in
the desired direction.
The Boom Set jack enables reception and transmission with the flight crew, the Boom
Mic jack allows transmission to the flight crew and the Headphone jack enables
reception from the flight crew.
Additional observer headset jacks are located in the headset storage areas along the
back wall of the flight compartment.
You may also create lesson plans to automate the training environment using the
Lesson Plan Studio utility. For further information on creating lesson plans refer to
the Lesson Plan Studio User Guide.
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 (see Figure 3-1).
There are two types of page select functions, discrete and variable. Discrete functions,
are toggled on or off by touching 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
current page as well as buttons for commonly used functions such as Help or Print.

the runway. This button is dark when the temperature is
below -5 degrees Celsius.
PATCHY ICE Displays status and selection sets patchy ice conditions on
the runway. This button is dark if the temperature is above
5 degrees Celsius.
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.
