Introduction
Normal and non–normal electronic checklists can be displayed on any selected
multifunction display (MFD). The electronic checklist system is not required for
dispatch, and a paper checklist must be available on the flight deck.
Electronic checklists can be displayed on any MFD by pushing the checklist
display switch on the display select panel. The checklists are controlled using
either one of the two cursor control devices (CCDs). Cursor control devices and
MFD selection are described in the System Description section of this chapter.
Electronic Checklist Operation
Pushing the checklist display switch on the display select panel displays the proper
checklist (see Checklist Access, this section, for the checklist display priority
order). Only one checklist is displayed at a time.
Three types of checklists can be displayed:
• normal
• non–normal associated with EICAS messages (annunciated)
• non–normal not associated with EICAS messages (unannunciated)
As each normal checklist is completed, pushing the checklist display switch
displays the next sequential normal checklist.
Some checklist steps must be checked–off by the pilot to be completed. Other
checklist steps are automatically checked–off from sensed flight deck control
positions, airplane system status, and/or EICAS messages.
Checklist Status
The CHECKLIST COMPLETE indicator is displayed at the bottom of all pages
of the checklist when all of the line items are either complete, inactive, or
overridden, and every page has been displayed. If the flight crew chooses not to
perform a particular line item, the line item can be overridden by selecting the
ITEM OVRD key at the bottom of the page. When a line item is overridden, the
text changes color from white to cyan and the current line item box moves down
to the next incomplete line item. If the flight crew chooses to not perform an entire
checklist, the checklist can be overridden by selecting the CHKL OVRD key at
the bottom of the page. When a checklist is overridden, the text of the entire
checklist changes color from white to cyan, and the CHECKLIST
OVERRIDDEN indicator is displayed at the bottom of all pages.
