Add temporary NOTAM information from the Takeoff or Landing page by
selecting the NOTAMS soft key and then set the preferred measurement units for
entering the NOTAM data (green diamond indicates current selection). Enter any
shortened runway figures and/or any obstacle information in the appropriate
fields. Comments can be added in the comment field as required. After the
required data has been entered select COMPLETE to add the temporary
information. The Takeoff or Landing page displays with a horizontal amber line
under the NOTAMS soft key to indicate that the NOTAM data is considered in the
performance calculations.
Accommodating MEL or CDL Issues
The OPT application can account for minimum equipment list (MEL) or
configuration deviation list (CDL) performance penalties in takeoff and landing
performance calculations.
Note: The administrator can set the OPT to remove the added MEL/CDL items
when either the FLIGHT INITIALIZE or FLIGHT CLOSE soft key is
selected. The OPT can be configured to delete the MEL/CDL items when
the EFB is completely powered down.
CAUTION: Added MEL/CDL items are not automatically applied to
enroute landing performance selections. For example, if the
autobrake is selected as inoperative on the MEL page, the
autobrake can still be selected for use in the BRKS field on the
Landing page.
Add MEL/CDL performance penalties on the Takeoff or Landing page by
selecting the MEL or CDL soft key. The MEL/CDL page displays a Chapter List
which contains chapter titles conforming to the IATA standard for airplane
components. Select CANCEL to exit the list without selecting any item. From the
Chapter List select the appropriate chapter to display a list of individual items.
Selecting the appropriate item is indicated by a green check mark. Additionally,
the item’s number displays in the Active Items list at the bottom of the page. When
finished, select COMPLETE to accept the selections. The Takeoff or Landing
page displays with a horizontal amber line under the MEL/CDL soft key to
indicate that MEL/CDL data is considered in the performance calculations.
Individual items can be removed from the MEL/CDL page by de-selecting the
item and then selecting COMPLETE. All selected items can be removed at once
by selecting CLEAR ALL and then selecting COMPLETE.
Note: The Takeoff or Landing page displays without the amber MEL/CDL
annunciation only when all MEL/CDL items have been cleared.
