parameters and avionics data from the AVIONICS WORLD to the NSS
for recording and for OIS applications needs.
-1 Open World Diode (OWD), which allows a unidirectional data flow

communication from its left to its right. It prevents malicious data coming
from its right going to the avionics domain and to the avionics world.

DESCRIPTION (3)
SCI-CDAM
The AVIONICS WORLD and the OPEN WORLD need to exchange
data to each other. Depending on their type, data are sent either through
CDAM or SCIs.
The CDAM fulfills an unidirectional gateway function for A/C parameters
coming from LRUs and LRMs and going to specific OIS applications.
This gateway function converts AFDX and ARINC 429 data into Ethernet.
The SCI fulfills a bidirectional gateway and security functions for various
data, exchanged between various LRUs and OIS applications.
These LRUs are:
-PDMCs for the control of the Electronic C/Bs. This is in Ethernet format,
-LRUs for OMS data, Ground/Flight data, etc. These data are converted
by both SCIs from discrete or ARINC 429 format into Ethernet format
and vice versa.
-LRUs and LRMs, through the ADCN, for OMS data. These data are
converted by both SCIs from AFDX format into Ethernet format and vice
versa.
There are two SCIs for redundancy purpose. Only a single SCI at a time,
the one declared "active", exchanges data between AVIONICS WORLD
and OPEN WORLD.
The SCI toggles between passive and active status in two conditions:
after 6 hours of operation and in flight phase number 12.
Both SCIs exchange their health data in Ethernet format and their
active/inactive status in discrete format to each other.
A "NSS DATA TO AVNCS" P/B allows:
-In pressed in position, data to flow in both directions between the OPEN
WORLD and AVIONICS WORLD,
-In OFF position (P/B released out) data to flow from the AVIONICS
WORLD to the OPEN WORLD only.

OIT Switching
The display of the OIS applications running either in the AVIONICS or
FLIGHT OPERATIONS DOMAINs requires various components, which
are:
-An OIT to process, convert into Digital Video Interface (DVI) standard,
and to display on its screen OIS applications, keyboard and ACD input
data.
-An OIT keyboard to edit data and select parameters with its included
touchpad.
Note that the output data of the keyboard, touchpad and ACD are coded
in Proposed Serial 2 (PS2) standard.
-An OIT ACD to perform basic operations with the OIT.
-An "OIT" potentiometer to switch the OIT and OIT-TPU ON or OFF
and to adjust the brightness level of the OIT screen,
-An OIT TPU to process and convert into digital video format (DVI
standard) OIS applications data and OIT keyboard and ACD input data.
-An "OIT SIDE" switch to display AVIONICS DOMAIN OIS application
when the switch is in the "NSS AVNCS" position or to display FLIGHT
OPERATIONS DOMAINs OIS application when the switch is in the
"FLT OPS" position.

The power down lasts 120 seconds and the power up 140 seconds
approximately.
To carry out maintenance operations, the NSS servers can request, through
the NCUs, the power up and power down of the NSS LRUs (called:
"REMOTE ON/OFF REQUESTS").
In case of NCU unavailability, the ANSUs can do the same operations

through the routers (called: "BACKUP ON/OFF REQUESTS").
Each NSS LRU sends, through the NCU, their 115 VAC status (presence
or not of power supply) to the dedicated ANSU for maintenance need.

2 USB plugs are installed on each laptop platform. These plugs are used
to plug in USB keys for data loading operations.
The flight crew uses those USB keys for the data loading (operational
flight data, etc...) of the Electronic Flight Folder (EFF).
The USB keys are used as a backup of the gate link.
Data is stored under the ARINC 615A format (data loading protocol) and
secured by an electronic signature.
The backup laptop-AFMR can be connected to the ARU-AFMR through
