Light System Overview

BSI System Overview
Overview
• The BSI lighting system consists of two Attendant Control Panels (ACPs) and four
columns of lights
• The forward ACP communicates with the lights and provides the control and
maintenance function
• The ACP can be used to verify proper light configuration versus location, color control
and scene definition
• The lights in each column are connected in series relative to the address and control
signals (RS-485 and Token)
• Power for the lights is provided from the aircraft 115VAC, 400Hz service bus
• Power for the lights may be provided by separate drops in the aircraft, or from the
adjacent light (pass thru)
• Power for the overwing exit lights (when emergency power is supplied) is supplied via
the 6VDC emergency power supplies.

Ceiling Lights
The ceiling light assemblies supply lighting to
the passenger compartment ceiling and to Ceiling Light (RGBW + WWA )
the stowage bins. The ceiling light assembly • GEN1: 9600-XX-0000
is a single (LRU) that consist of two light • GEN2: 9601-XX-0000
assemblies arranged to illuminate the ceiling • GEN3: 9602-XX-0000
(wash) and the stowage bins (cross-bin).
Bullnose Light (RGBW + WWA)
There are two types of ceiling lights. The • GEN1: 9900-XX-000X
basic ceiling and the bullnose ceiling light. • GEN2: 9901-XX-000X
The bullnose ceiling light has an LED active • GEN3: 9902-XX-000X
area that is shorter in the cross-bin WWW
assembly to match aircraft internal structure.
The ceiling lights can be programmed for

various scenes/colors. One of these colors is
sky blue, but other colors may be defined for
specific scenes.
The ceiling lights shall be mounted to the top

inboard surface of the stow bin strong backs
behind a valance.

Sidewall Lights
The sidewall (window) lights supply lighting Sidewall Light (RGBW)
to the areas below the stowage bins and • GEN1: 9650-XX-000X
above the over wing emergency exits in the • GEN2: 9651-XX-000X
passenger compartment. There are six
groups of sidewall light assemblies on each
side of the airplane. They receive power
from three electrical power drops on each
side of the airplane. Two groups of lights
receive electrical power from each power
drop. Each group has a maximum of six
light assemblies with electrical power
connected in series. The sidewall lights are
RGBW light assemblies. RGBW lights have
many red, green, blue and white (RGBW)
LED. The RGBW LED light assemblies are
full color lights and can have 32 different
colors including warm and cool white. The
window LED light assemblies are full color
lights and are controlled by the attendant
control panel (ACP). They receive power
through the CAB/UTIL switch on the P5
panel.

• Each light receives the communication RS-485 and Token signals

• Only the first light in column receives Token from ACP
• All other lights in column receive Token from upstream light
• Each light is assigned a unique address by Data Load
• Note: RS-485 COM requires a terminator resistor on end of line.
System Communications Overview

System Communications
ACP Data Load – Verifies communication with all lights and checks configuration of
lighting system
• Defines address, zone and scenes for each light in system

• Collects SN, PN and SW version from each light
• Compares response to stored lighting map for A/C
• Starts with Column 1
• Token sent serially to each light in a column
• Each light is assigned a unique address
• Each light responds with assigned address, SN, PN and SW Version
• ACP then assigns Zone location to the lights
• Assigned based on address in column
• ACP then loads Scene Information
• Can load up to 32 different scenes
• Scene loaded based on light type
• Scene settings indicate color, intensity and transition time
• Repeats above for Column 2, then Column 3 and then Column 4

A/C Column Wiring Defines Light Address
The ACP communicates with
each light based on its
position in that column’s
wiring. The lights position
and thus address is defined by
the LOPA.
Note: The light

wiring/addressing on Columns
1 and 4 is forward to aft.
The light wiring for Columns 2

and 3 are forward to aft and
then back forward.

Light System Maintenance &
Trouble Shooting

Troubleshooting
• When a light is replaced a Phase 2 Data Load must be performed to

program the new light with its address and zone. Otherwise it will not
work correctly.
• Lights that have lost communication with the ACP will go to a white bright mode
and not respond to scene commands.
• Lights that are dark are not receiving AC power and standard troubleshooting
should apply (check connections, etc.)
• Sidewall lights are daisy chained for power, so the light that is out may not be the
light that has a problem.
• Jumper harness may be employed to skip over suspect light to continue
power/communication
• Lamps test mode can help to determine power vs. communication/LED failures
• Lights experiencing a surge may experience an open fuse as Transient Voltage
Suppressor (TVS) protects power supply (LED lights are electronic devices, not
transformers)
Troubleshooting
RS-485 quick check (Power Off)

• Approx. 100 Ohms
• High Impedance to ground
RS-485:
• RS-485 signals follow transmission line rules for termination, reflections and stubs
• Un-terminated lines will have positive reflections and may cause intermittent
communications
• Shorted line will have negative reflections and create nodes/antinodes that will
cause faults remotely
• ½ of a RS-485 signal may function up to a certain length
• Breaking the system is the best way to isolate these failures
Token:
• Token failure may be caused by the sending or receiving light

Troubleshooting
Sidewall (window) lights:
• If a string of sidewall lights will not turn on, check power connections from the
upstream light next to the first light that does not come on. The upstream light may
be forward or aft of the light that does not come on, depending on where power is
applied to that string
• A maximum of six lights may be connected in a string
Ceiling Lights:
• Ceiling lights have communication passed in the aft direction and then forward
through the same LRU twice (Cross Bin and Wash Lights).
• Cross bin light failure may not be apparent due to lens

lights

• Look in cabin for lights that are still on bright white.
• None of them should be on.
• If any lights are still on, note their location and what light it is,
i.e. . . . Ceiling Wash (CW), Cross-Bin (CB), Sidewall (SW),
Cove (CV), Center Overhead Stowage (COS), Entry Direct (EDL),
or Cabin Direct (CDL). They should correspond with failures shown
on the ACP during programming.
• Lights that are still on even though they should be off are an
indication that they have not received programming or programming
is corrupted. Lights default to bright white when this happens even
though they’ve been turned off at the ACP. The lights (LRUs) always
have power as long as circuit breakers are in, ground service power is
available and Galley switch in flight deck is on. The ACP sends an OFF
(data) signal to each LRU to turn them off. With no programming the
LRU is forced to a default bright white.
Turn the lights back on via

the ACP.

• Look at “Addressing Port

1,2,3 or 4” for V4 software.
OR
• Look at “Addressing Column
1,2,3 or 4” for V5 software.
• Examine ports or columns

that failed.
• On those ports or columns

that failed, pay attention to
what light failed first and go
to that light.
• The LRU(s) that failed may
correspond to light(s) that
stayed on bright white
when they were turned off.
• Pay particular attention to

any light (LRU) that has
any segment out. If a
segment is out then that
LRU must be replaced and
subsequently programmed.
• Segments out can also

cause programming to not
pass to the next LRU in the
data chain.
• Sometimes the light that

isn’t working properly
isn’t the culprit.
• The problem could be

earlier in the data chain,
which is why it is so
important to look at the
“Addressing section” to
see where the failures
began in the data chain.

• To the right is an example of
an ACP with V4 software that
shows failures during
programming.
• Failures occurred starting at
Addressing Port 2 with LRU 2-
11 “Ceiling Light at Row 25 did
not respond” in this example.
• This screen shot was from an
actual failure on an aircraft
where the ceiling wash light at
row 25 had a segment out
which not only caused it’s
failure but also caused all LRUs
following in the data chain to
fail.
• To the right is an example of
an ACP with V5 software that
shows failures during
programming.
• Failures occurred starting at
Addressing Column 1 with
LRU 1-1 “Direct Light at FWD
Entry Direct did not respond”
in this example.
• This screen shot was from an
aircraft where the LRUs 1-1 to
1-6 were removed from the
aircraft for other maintenance
which also caused all LRUs
following in the data chain to
fail.
Example of how to use block diagram
1. Cross bin (CB) light at row 8 on the right side is an odd color compared to the rest of the lights in the cabin.
Row 5 Row 6 Row 8 Row 10 Row 12 Row 14 Row 15
a. Looking at block diagram, you can see that the data chain starts at port 3 and goes thru Center
overhead stowage (COS) light (right side life raft) at seat row 4 and continues thru CB lights at row Row 5 Row 6 Row 8 Row 10 Row 12 Row 14 Row 15
5 and 6 to CB at row 8.
b. This tells you that CB light at row 8 is potentially bad or the CB light at row 6 is not passing Row 4
program to CB light at row 8 or a combination of both. Port 3 → →→ COS CB CB CB CB CB CB CB

c. You try recycling circuit breakers at E8 and E9 (Ceiling light right aft and Ceiling light right) on P91
but it doesn’t help.
d. So now you inspect light at row 8 for a segment out. You find it has a segment out. M 2804 M 2875 M 2801 M 2801 M 2801 M 2801 M 2801 M 2801
e. You replace light assembly and program it and it corrects the problem.
M 2805 M 2875 M 2801 M 2801 M 2801 M 2801 M 2801 M 2801 M 2868 M 2871
2. After replacing light at row 8, you discover another light now not working properly – The Ceiling Wash (CW)
light at seat row 15 and 17 stays bright white after previous programming.
a. You inspect light at row 15 and 17 and find no bad segments. TM CW CW CW CW CW CW CW CW ←← CW

b. So now you go back and look at addressing on ACP for port 3 to see where in the data chain the RIGHT
first light that did not respond is and you find it to be CW light at row 21.
Row 5 Row 6 Row 8 Row 10 Row 12 Row 14 Row 15 Row 17 Row 21
c. After inspecting this light you find it appears normal with no segments out and lights up normal.
d. Looking at the block diagram you can see that this light is the previous light in data chain to CW Row 5 Row 6 Row 8 Row 10 Row 12 Row 14 Row 15 Row 21
light at row 17 and row 15.
e. You replace this light assembly at row 21 and reprogram and find it fixes the bright lights at row 15 Row 4 Row 18 Row 20
and 17. Port 3 → →→ COS CB CB CB CB CB CB CB COS COS CB

f. You also see on ACP that Port 3 now addresses successfully which means you’ve corrected the
problems.
• Note the following: Port 1 data flows first thru forward Entry Direct light then Forward Cove left, Fwd Cove
right, Fwd Cabin Direct, Mid Cove right, Mid Cove left, 4 sidewall Window lights, Fwd Overwing Exit, Aft OWE, 4
more sidewall Window lights and ends at a Terminator. The other 3 ports work the same way thru their
respective lights.
• Using the block diagram and the ACP together are excellent trouble-shooting tools to aid technicians in figuring
out how the data flows from one light to another in the data bus circuit and which ports or columns are
affected.
