GENERAL
The MFD 255 is a smart multifunction generating PFD (Primary Flight Display) or/and NO (Navigation Display) pictures.
In normal operation the Primary Flight Display shows an ADI (Attitude Direction Indicator) and the Navigation display
shows an HSI (Horizontal Situation Indicator)
The MFD architecture is based on two separate channels, one for the pilot and one for the copilot. Each channel is set
on two displays ( MFD ) which receives all sensors such as air data computer, gyroscopic central, vertical gyro,
navigation system, etc ...
DESCRIPTION
The Flight Display System is composed of
-Four identical screens MFD (Multi Function Display), a program pin will determine exactly the function of each
screen (PFD-ND Pilot or PFD-ND Co-Pilot).
-Two DCP (Display Control Panel),
- Two MCP (Main Control Panel),
- One RCU (Reconfiguration Control Unit).
-One EFIS dispatching Unit

ARCHITECTURE
The MFD architecture is fully duplex, each MFD receiving all data from all sensors
Each MFD composing a sub-system receives exactly the same data coming from:
1. The flight data system:
Attitude and Heading data ( AHRS 1 & 2 )

Air Data ( RH and LH Air Data Computer ADC 3000 )
Reconfiguration Data . The Reconfiguration Control Unit (RCU) allows the crew to reconfigure the display system in case of sensor
failure

All Of those data are distributed thought an Patchboard 200~

Each Sub system can be controlled by a Display control Unit (DCP) to select Vertical speed reference, barometric and Decision height setting.
More over each MFD and Sub systems have digital Cross Talk Buses, that allow Cross Monitoring Warning in case of discrepancy in receiving
data.

DATA DESCRIPTION
The equipments are interconnected thought an Patchboard 2ooa

The data used are digital (ARINC429 format) Analog (synchro) or discrete (logical).
The bus on side is connected between PFD and NO on each side.
If the NO detects an error, an amber« CTRL » message is displayed on the NO's screen and it can be configured in PFD
and displaed in composite page.
Contrary if the PFD detect the fault, the amber« CTRL » message is displayed on the PFD and it can be configured in NO or
it can displayed the composite page.
The cross side bus is used to control the critical data or double data as :ALT,IAS,HDG,ATT,NAV sources,LOC,GS ;and is
connected between each side PFD1 to PFD2 and ND1 and ND2 ,to display a discrepancy message in case of deviation
between two sensors.

1. AIR DATA UNIT PURPOSE
The ADU 3000 is primary reference sensor and delivers digital anemometry and barometric data to the display system MFD 255.
The two ADU receiving pressure data from the dynamic and static ports measure the static pressure and the differential pressure.
Moreover each ADU measures the resistance of a temperature sensor (TPU).
Using these data, the ADU is able to compute the true air speed {TAS), the outside air temperature (OAT},
the indicated Air Speed(IAS), the Vertical Speed (VS) and the Altitude.
2. POWER SUPPLY
The ADU#1 is powered from the 28 volts 1.

} 4 a Single supply
The ADU#2 is powered from the 28 volts 2.

REMOVABLE MEMORY UNIT (RMM)
The RMM memorises installation, compensation and latitude of helicopter manoeuvring location.
The unit position in AS 565MB is memorised. The misinstallation measurements in roll, pitch and yaw are inserted by
software with a portable computer specifically programmed. The EEPROM type memory is connected
electrically to AHRS and mechanically to the structure with a chain.
MAINTENANCE SAFETY
A nylon thread secured to the chassis is installed for each memory to avoid involuntary switching. Should the RMM
memories be inverted after compensation between AHRS 1 and AHRS 2, the gyros are inoperative until the error is
corrected.
BORESIGHTING PROCEDURE
Allow measuring and memorising in RMMs the alignment errors of each unit with respect to machine references.
