ATR Systems 42 - 500 Et 72 - 212A
ATR Systems 42 - 500 Et 72 - 212A
This guide is a comprehensive document that efficiently complements FCOM 1st part
– Systems description. Systems are organized as per FCOM chapter, including their ATA
classification along with cockpit location. Cockpit panels familiarisation is presented with
each relevant system description in a separate annex.
This new guide release is intended for training on ATR 42-500 and 72-212A. It presents
a generic aircraft not customized to your own aircraft systems. Should you find any
discrepancy between Systems guide and your customized ATR operational documentation
(AFM, FCOM & QRH), the latter takes precedence.
NB: This Systems guide is also available for ATR 42-300 and 72-200 not PEC. This document will also
be developed for the ATR-600.

automatically becomes inoperative.
This light also flashes during self-test
of the module.
During powering, since all 4 modules
are selected ON, the following
sequence is executed:
MFC 1A and MFC 2A FAULT lights
flashing (self-test of these modules)
MFC 1A and MFC 2A FAULT lights
extinguish.

NOTE: Here, if the cargo door control

The MFC functions can be treated: – in one module only
the MFC 1B and 2B are tested.(See

– When the ACW GPU is ON, the GPU supplies through the BTC, the ACW BUS 1, the ACW

The ACW GEN supplies, the ACW BUS 2 and ACW BUS 1 through the BTC, but the SVCE

The Avionics Standard Communication Bus (ASCB) system allows transmission of data in all directions between
computers of the aircraft. The ASCB is controlled by the AFCS computer
Private line: When the ASCB is failed, the private line is used as a back up, to transmit data from the AHRU to the
SGU.
Video Bus
AFCS (Auto Flight Control System) receives data from the two ADC, AHRS, SGU, the radio altimeter, the GNSS
and from some sensors. It generates commands to the flight control actuators and to the FD bars. The AFCS is the ASCB
controller too.
AHRU (Attitude and Heading Reference Unit) includes an Inertial measurement unit (INU) composed of three
gyrometers and three accelerometers. The AHRU receives inputs from its associated flux valve and the TAS, fed by both
ADC, is used to compute gyro erection
ADC (Air Data Computers) is supplied with static air pressure (static ports), total air pressure (pitot ports), total air
temperature (TAT probe). With these inputs, the ADC computes pressure altitude, VS, IAS, TAS, TAT, SAT.
SGU (Symbols Generator Unit):
– collects all the data, coming
* from the ASCB (AFCS, AHRU, ADC)
* from navigation sources (VOR, ILS, DME, ADF, GNSS)
* from the remote controller (CRS, HDG)
– converts the data in video format, for the EFIS (EADI, EHSI)
– transfers the video data, from the weather radar or the EGPWS to the EHSI
