Landing gear position indicator - see figure 7.5.1
Lan
ding gear position indication is accomplished by 5 lights :
- On LANDING GEAR control panel
. 3 green indicator lights (one per landing gear),
. 1 red warning light GEAR UNSAFE
. 1 amber light in the LANDING GEAR lever.
- On MFD CAS window :
. GEAR UNSAFE
● NOTE ●
The
amber light flashes while the hydraulic pump is operating to extend or
retract the landing gear.
●
When landing gear is correctly retracted, all lights are OFF.
Down-locked correct indication is when there are 3 green indicator lights ON, the
GEAR UNSAFE red warning light is OFF, the GEAR UNSAFE is OFF and the
amber caution light is OFF. All other cases mean the gear is not down-locked.
In case of doubt about landing gear down-locked position, an independent electrical
circuit provides a countercheck capability of the indication system. Pressing the
CHECK DOWN push-button, located on the landing gear panel, checks the
down-lock of the gear making twinkle, at 16 hertz, the green indicator lights
corresponding to the down-locked gear.
Pressing the LIGHT TEST push-button allows testing all landing gear panel lights
making them flash at 1 hertz.
