A full Flight Mode Annunciation ( FMA ) provides the

pilot with the engaged modes, the various armed/active
longitudinal and lateral modes,and the AP/FD/A-THR
engagement status.

A vertical and lateral deviation scales give

GLIDE/SLOPE - LOCALIZER or V/DEV -L/DEV (for
further references other than LS) raw data.
These deviation scales and indexes are only activated
once the LS pushbutton on the FCU has been pressed
in.

FD ( Flight Director ) bars

FD tendency bars are displayed once the FD is
engaged ( FD pushbutton pressed in and lighted on the
FCU ).
FD bars are composed of three bars: for pitch, roll and
yaw .
( for more information about FD, please refer to Flight
Director chapter in the ATA 22 section ).

Additional flight information can be added on the PFD image, such as the radio altitude which will be displayed in digital
form below the horizon line during landing, etc.

 EIS – System description - System reconfiguration – Normal operation

• In normal operation, each DMC, with respect to sensor and computer inputs, acquires data/parameters
through its ONSIDE sources to gather all necessary data in order for the display unit driven by the DMC to
generate all graphic symbologies related to a particular image.
•
• In normal operation, each DMC drives two display units as follows:

• - The DMC 1 drives the CAPT PFD DU , CAPT ND DU, EWD, and SD.
•
• - The DMC 2 drives the F/O PFD DU and the F/O ND DU,
•
• - The DMC 3 is used in case of reconfigurations ( see chapter 5.7 System Reconfiguration ).

• In order to ensure the greatest availability of the displayed data, the fully redundancy architecture of
the system enables three types of reconfiguration in case of any component failure:

• - In case of single or multiple DU failures,

• - In case of single or multiple DMC failures,
• - In case of external (sensor/computer) information source failures.

ON BOARD MAINTENANCE & BITE

 EIS (DMC & DU) - Page 49 

EIS – On Board maintenance – BITE (DMC and DU) General

There are 3 types of Built-In Test:

- Power-On Self Test ( POST ): this includes software and hardware testing activated at power on. The objective
of the POST is to ensure of the validity of the equipment
- Continuous Built-In Test ( CBIT ): the CBIT includes recurrent tests. The objective is to detect internal or
external, to memorize the abnormal event, to analyze it and then to transmit the failure report to the centralized
maintenance system i.e. the CFDIU (Centralized Fault Interface Unit
- Initiated Test ( IBIT ): interactive test called IBIT are activated while the aircraft is on ground, the CFDS
(Centralized Fault Display Display System) switched to MENU mode, the INST (Instrument) page selected and
finally the EIS 1 (2) or (3) page has been selected by the MCDU operator.

 EIS (DMC & DU) - Page 50 

EIS – On Board maintenance – BITE (DMC and DU) – Power On (1/4)

1 : after power-on, DMC and DU acquire flight/ground information during 300 ms and pin-programming.

2 : after 300 ms, DMC and DU activate the POST mode. DUs display the SELF TEST IN PROGRESS green
message.
3 : DMC, after correct completion of the POST mode, activates the OPER mode and sends operational data to
DUs. DUs, because of their internal hardware tests duration, are always activating the POST mode tests and
displaying the SELF TEST IN PROGRESS green message.

4 : DUs, after correct completion of the POST mode, activate the OPER mode. During this phase, DUs send
software version and link check wordstring and activate the software version check process and the A629 inputs
validity check process. During this phase (short test), nothing is displayed on DUs. DMC is always sending
operational data to DUs.

5 : after correct completion of theses checks, DUs display an operational image.

The duration of these tests is equal to 40 seconds for the LCDU and 35 seconds for the DMC.

The DMC or DU delivered to you (as spare equipment or after a repair) does not content any software or may
content a software which is not the latest one.
As a consequence, once a DMC or a DU is installed on board the aircraft it is necessary to load the software into it
You can do this software loading in three manner/

Tele-loading from an external data-loader (aircraft data loader or portable data loader) into a DMC. This operation is
called DMC Uploading.

Tele-loading from a DMC into DUs is called DU Cross-loading,

Tele-loading from a DMC into another DMCs is called DMC Cross-loading.

 EIS (DMC & DU) - Page 55 

EIS – On Board maintenance (2)

The following figure gives examples of the 3 different tele-loading sub-functions. For the DU cross-loading sub-
function, the maintenance operator has to configure the DUs on the Emitter DMC by using the DMC
reconfiguration

• Note: The cross-load of the 6 DUs in one operation is not possible. To load the 6 DUs, 2 cross-loading
operations from 2 different DMCs are needed. These 2 operations have to be done one after the other (2 DMCs
can not be in cross-loading mode at the same time).

EIS – On Board maintenance (5) – Tele Loading

Tele-loading Description :

During a tele-loading (Uploading or Cross-loading), the loaded LRU:

• - manages the dialogue with the loader,
• - manages its FPROM (erase, write on the FPROM),
• - behaves as if it was not powered regard to the other computer, it does not emitting on the output buses (except
the bus used for tele-loading) and sets discrete signals in the open state.

When the transfer of the software to the LRU is completed, the LRU checks the integrity of the tele-loaded
software. If the integrity checks of the tele-loaded software are false, the LRU:
• - sends its part number hardware, a part number software corresponding to a LRU without operational software
and its serial number every 50 ms on the A629 bus,
• - stays in TELE mode and waits for a new tele-loading request.

L E

• Note: During the tele-loading, a DU displays the large L cyan letter.

• Before tele-loading the DU without software displays the large E white letter.

 EIS (DMC & DU) - Page 59 

EIS – On Board maintenance (6) - Tele Loading

• The duration of the uploading depends on the protocol used (A615-3 or A615A) and on the internal behavior
of the data-loader.

• The total duration of any kind of cross-loading (1 to 2 DMCs or 1 to 6 DUs) is less than 10 minutes. The cross-
loading duration includes the time needed for data transfer on A629 buses, data writing on FPROM and integrity
checks of tele-loaded software (any manual operation by the operator is not part of the cross-loading duration).

When a DMC cross-loads several LRUs at the same time, if the cross-load of one LRU is aborted, the DMC
considers as aborted only the cross-loading of this LRU and the DMC continues the cross-loading of the other
LRUs.

• Note: There is no requirement on uploading duration for the EIS. Cross-loading duration is given for a 16 Mbits
software and if the FPROM writing or erasing time is typical, i.e. the FPROM is used in normal conditions
(temperature, voltage, wearing state of the FPROM).

General
• The (OMS) On board Maintenance System through MCDUs, installed in the cockpit, provides maintenance
operator with the possibility to consult A/C systems status and to activate a set of tests.

• This function is accessible when the OMS is in MENU Mode. Note that this mode correspond to the INTR mode
of the new EIS system. Note this mode is available on ground only.

• During the INTR mode and if no other image is requested, each DU, that is connected to a DMC which is in
maintenance mode, displays the MAINTENANCE MODE green message.
