SENSOR
The Sensor (SENSOR) synoptic page provides pilot selection of Air Data system
sources for the left and right PFDs as well as the standby ADI. This page also
provides a secondary input for the altimeter setting. The main display on the
SENSOR synoptic is two windows containing the source selection for the AHRS
and ADC for all three displays.
⎯ PFD AHRS SRC
The Attitude Heading Reference System source (AHRS SRC) line select key
allows selection of the AHRS source for the PFDs to AUTO, 1, or 2.
• AUTO
In the AUTO mode, the ACS automatically uses AHRS 1 for the left PFD,
AHRS 2 for the right PFD, as well as the MFD ADI. In the event a third
AHRS is available, it is used as the primary source for the MFD ADI.
Should a failure of either primary AHRS source (1 or 2) occur, the off-side
PFD will automatically use the remaining operating AHRS.
• 1
Selection of 1 for the AHRS SRC manually sets both the left and right
PFD to uses AHRS 1.
• 2
Selection of 2 for the AHRS SRC manually sets both the left and right
PFD to uses AHRS 2.
⎯ PFD ADC SRC
The Air Data Computer Source (ADC SRC) line select key allows selection of
the ADC source for the PFDs to AUTO, 1, or 2.
• AUTO
In the AUTO mode, the ACS automatically uses ADC 1 for the left PFD,
ADC 2 for the right PFD, and ADC 3 for the MFD ADI. Should a failure of
either primary ADC source (1 or 2) occur, the off-side PFD will
automatically use the remaining operating ADC.
• 1
Selection of 1 for the ADC SRC manually sets both the left and right PFD
to uses ADC 1.
• 2
Selection of 2 for the ADC SRC manually sets both the left and right PFD
to uses ADC 2.
⎯ MFD AHRS/ADC SRC
Selection of the AHRS and ADC Source for the MFD ADI is not available. On
start-up, the AHRS source defaults to AHRS 2, and if installed AHRS 3, while
the ADC defaults to ADC 3.
