4.11 POST INSTALLATION CHECK
4.11.1 Continuity Check
Before applying power to the DAFR, verify that all connections
are secure and that continuity or other interconnection
assurance check has been carried out.
4.11.2 System Check
(1) Carry out the Daily Functional Check described in the
MAINTENACE section.
(2) Carry out the CVR System Check described in the
MAINTENANCE section.
(3) Carry out the FDR System Check described in the
MAINTENANCE section.
4.12 FLIGHT TEST
Each newly installed DAFR system on each aircraft type will
need to be flight-tested and, for the audio recording,
evaluated to demonstrate adequate recording quality during
all normal regimes of flight. In the case of helicopter
installations, spectral analysis of the CAM channel should be
undertaken to ensure satisfactory recording of engine and
transmission signatures.
The flight data recording will need to be evaluated to
demonstrate correct recording of all data parameters.
The replay and evaluation will need to be performed by a
replay centre acceptable to the Certification Authority.
Further guidance on Flight Test can be found in EUROCAE
ED112 Part I Chapter 6 and Part II Chapter 6.
