UFCP LOWER SWITCH PANEL
The UFCP lower panel consists of switches and knobs that control the pilot
selection, text display, flight path marker cage switching, UFCP and HUD UFCP
brightness and contrast levels.
The UFCP data entry knob is a rotary/push knob located on the bottom left of the
UFCP lower panel and is not simulated in this version of the software.
The UFCP brightness knob is located on the right side of the UFCP lower switch
panel. Rotating the UFCP brightness knob clockwise increases (counter clockwise
decreases) the brightness of the displays in the UFCP windows.
The UFCP bezel incandescent legend lighting is controlled by the aircraft lighting
control (not the UFCP brightness knob).
The HUD brightness knob is located on the right side of the UFCP lower switch
panel. Rotating the HUD brightness knob clockwise increases (counter clockwise
decreases) the brightness of the symbology.
Rotating the HUD brightness knob fully counter clockwise turns the HUD brightness
to a non-visible level.
The HUD brightness knob of the rear UFCP has no effect on the HUD brightness.
The BARO SET knob provides access to adjust the altimeter setting. The altimeter
setting may also be entered by keying the value using the AKB keys followed by
pressing the ENT key. The altimeter setting is available in W1 after pressing the PFD
key.
Press and hold of W1 will set the correction to 29.92 in. Hg. When the barometric
correction setting is indicated in inches of mercury, the reading shall display as a
four-digit number without a decimal point (e.g., 2992).
Barometric correction setting indicated in millibars shall display as a three or four
digit whole number (e.g., 1013 or 999).
Rotating the BARO SET knob one click shall increment or decrement the barometric
correction setting by one, regardless of whether the unit is in. Hg or millibars. For a
cold or warm start value the barometric correction setting shall be the previous
value. Barometric correction setting units that are changed via UFCP are reflected
on both FWD and AFT displays.
NOTE
For Solo flight, the aft UFCP AUTO HUD/DAY/NIGHT switch should be set to
DAY mode.
