CONTROLS
The cockpit panels and instrument lighting controls are on the pedestal,
the overhead panel, the main instrument panel and below the
glareshield. The CAPT and F/O reading lights are swivel-light type
that have an internal double diaphragm which turns and gives the
following configurations:
- One section gives the OFF/ON and DIM functions.
- One section decreases and increases the illuminated surface.
The internal light panel contains the controls for the overhead panel
integral lighting, the standby compass integral light, the dome lights,
the overhead lighting strips and the annunciator lights. Two
potentiometers installed below the glareshield control the integral
lighting of the glareshield and the Flight Control Unit (FCU) displays.
The FLOOD Light potentiometers control the flood lights of their
related areas and the INTEGral LT potentiometer controls the main
panel and pedestal lighting. The side console light controls are on the
left and right hand sides of the main instrument panel.
The brightness of the instrument and panel integrated lighting can be
changed for flights in night or stormy conditions. The brightness of
the integral lighting of the overhead panel and the CAPT and F/O
main instrument panels is controlled, through a lighting controller,
by the integral light potentiometer, which is on the center pedestal.
The brightness of the integral lighting of the glareshield and the FCU
is adjusted, through the lighting controller, by rotary potentiometers
installed below the glareshield.

DESCRIPTION
The FAP light page reflects the cabin layout characteristics. The cabin
lighting scenarios are loaded in the Cabin Assignment Module (CAM)
according to the cabin layout and the airline definitions. Any order
for cabin light setting in the cabin is mainly done via the FAP.
Director 1 broadcasts orders to the cabin Decoder Encoder Units A
(DEUs A). Director 2 is in hot-standby mode and runs in parallel with
exactly the same system status information at any given time. It is
able to control lighting at any time.
Each DEU A can transmit illumination requests from the director to
8 Advanced Integrated Ballast Units (AIBUs) maximum.

CABIN LIGHTING - DESCRIPTION
33 - LIGHTS Page 31

CABIN LIGHTING (continued)
OPERATION
In normal operation, orders from the FAP (such as Main On/Off,
dimming of the Business Class, Boarding scenario to a predefined
lighting value, etc) are sent simultaneously via an ETHERNET data
link to the CIDS Directors 1 and 2.
The main characteristics of this ETHERNET data link signal are:
- high speed of 10Mb/sec,
- same signal characteristics from the FAP to each CIDS director.
Note that the Main On/Off control is only available on ground.
Upon orders received from the FAP, Director 1 broadcasts the request
to the cabin DEU A on the TOP LINE DATA BUS.
The TOP LINE DATA BUS is a 14 Bits data word - 4Mb/sec signal.
Once acknowledged by the DEU A, the request is converted into a
BIDIRECTIONAL SERIAL DATA INTERFACE signal and
transmitted to the AIBU. The AIBUs then power fluorescent tubes
accordingly. Each AIBU is supplied with 115 VAC from the AC
Normal bus. Each DEU A can transmit illumination requests from
the director to 8 AIBUs maximum.
When the cockpit door is open and the engine is running, the forward
entrance area lighting is dimmed to 10%.
GCF13151 - GE9T0M0 - FM33D2000000002
In abnormal configuration such as either rapid cabin decompression

or a total CIDS failure, the cabin lights up at 100%.
Note that the entrance lighting zones remain at the same selected level
of brightness.

Each lavatory has (on demand):
- one or two fluorescent tubes supplied with 115 VAC,
- a set of lights installed in the mirror, supplied with 28 VDC,
- kick strip light (LED Technology), supplied with 28 VDC.
There is a lavatory sign (LED Technology) located in the cabin to show
the location of the lavatories, and if the lavatories are occupied.
Optionally, the luminance on the LOS housing is automatically dimmable
by the means of an internal light sensor between maximum and minimum
level in approximately1 sec to adapt the sign luminance to the ambient
brightness.

DESCRIPTION
The lavatories illumination is controlled through]
t
he FAP via the CIDS either with the MAIN ON/OFF pushbutton or
with the LAV MAINT pushbutton.
Each lavatory is provided with one or two fluorescent tubes associated
to their ballast units, and with a lavatory light composed of an auxiliary
light, a mirror light and a kick strip light.
Depending on the lavatory location, the fluorescent tube ballast unit
system is supplied with 115VAC/400Hz by the normal busbar 113XP
or 214XP.
The mirror light, the strip light and the control of the ballast unit are
supplied by the GROUND/SERVICE busbar 602PP. The auxiliary
light is supplied by the essential busbar 101PP: it remains lighted as
long as the essential busbar is available.
Each lavatory door controls a set of two relays through the
door-locking device. A door micro-switch manages the lighting
brightness and occupied sign (LED Technology). The OPEN/CLOSED
door switch runs the ballast unit.

33 - LIGHTS Page 39

OPERATION
When the lavatory door is closed but unlocked, the normal busbar
602PP energizes the fluorescent tube to 50% via the maintenance
relay. In the cabin, the lavatory sign turns green.
As soon as the door is closed and locked, the normal busbar 602PP
energizes the mirror light fluorescent tube to 100% via the door relay.
In the cabin, the lavatory sign in the cabin turns red. Note that when
the forward lavatory is occupied, the relay 1LP2 is energized. It lights
the OCCUPIED annunciator on the cockpit overhead panel.
When the lavatory door is open, the fluorescent tube is energized to
50%. In the cabin, the lavatory sign turns green. Whatever the door
position, the normal busbar 602PP energizes the kick strip light and
the essential busbar 101PP supplies the auxiliary lights.

DESCRIPTION
The passenger reading lights consist of LED technology lights,
controlled either by a pushbutton located on the PSU or by a Passenger
Control Unit (PCU) pushbutton located on the armrest. The FAP and
an internal logic in the CIDS Directors control the Reading Lights
(RL).

PASSENGER READING LIGHTS - DESCRIPTION
33 - LIGHTS Page 45

PASSENGER READING LIGHTS (continued)
OPERATION
When the reading light is set to ON or OFF, the signal is sent directly
to the Passenger and Interface Supply Adapter (PISA). An internal
transformer rectifier converts the voltage from the 115 VAC normal
busbar into 28VDC.
Upon activation of the In-Seat control switch, an ARINC 429 signal
is sent from the Enhanced Passenger Entertainment System Controller
(EPESC) to the Directors. As a result, the Director transmits the signal
through the Top Line Data Bus to the DEU-A. Finally, it is relayed
to the PISA power supply via a bi-directional serial interface of the
Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) type. The brightness of
the passenger reading lights is in correlation to the selected cabin
lighting scenario: it depends on the brightness level of the cabin
general illumination.
The FAP Reading Light Set and Reset pushbuttons enable the manual
control of all cabin reading lights, when the aircraft is on ground. To
achieve this ground logic control, the Landing Gear Control and
Interface Unit (LGCIU) sends the down and compressed landing gear
signal to the Directors. Upon power application, the reading light
individual operation does not depend on the aircraft being on ground
GCF13151 - GE9T0M0 - FM33D2000000002
or in flight.
Each light is associated to a power supply unit fitted with an internal
115VAC/6VAC transformer. The AC NORMAL BUS 113XP supplies
each power supply unit. Each power unit is located in the door.

TEST
Two tests of the cabin emergency lighting system must be carried out
from the MCDU through the Cabin Intercommunication Data System
(CIDS):
- the system test,
- the BATtery CAPacity test.
The system test checks the condition of the EPSUs electronic circuits
GCF13151 - GE9T0M0 - FM33D4000000001
and the interior and exterior electrical loads of the cabin

emergency-lighting system. The BAT CAP test checks and shows the
battery capacity condition of each of the EPSUs batteries. An individual
test on each EPSU must be carried out if the CIDS fails. A test switch is
installed on the top of each EPSU.
A load programming procedure is automatically done when a new EPSU
battery is installed or when a new EPSU is installed. This procedure, also
called "TEACH IN", is necessary to measure and keep the load values
of the related EPSU. These load values are used as reference values during
the system test. Therefore it is necessary to examine that all connected
emergency lights of the related EPSU operate.

mirror set lights come on when the aircraft is energized. The remaining
ones come on as soon as the door is closed and locked. When the lavatory
door is unlocked, the fluorescent tube brightness level is 50%. When the
door is closed and locked, the brightness level changes to 100% and the
lavatory occupied sign turns red. Regardless of the door position, the
kick strip lights are on permanently during the flight. The Main On/Off
P/B on the FAP lights the lavatory fluorescent tubes to 50% or switches
them off. As long as the door is unlocked, the lavatory sign shows green.
Optionally, the luminance on the LOS housing is automatically dimmable
by the means of an internal light sensor between maximum and minimum
level in appreciatively 1 sec to adapt the sign luminance to the ambient
brightness.

PASSENGER READING
The passenger reading lights (LEDs), are located in the Passenger Service
Unit (PSU). They are adjusted for each seat. The R/L Set and R/L Reset
P/Bs on the FAP control all the reading lights. The related DEU A lets
the reading light be turned on, via a Passenger Interface and Supply
Adapter (PISA), which can control and monitor up to 4 reading lights.
Passengers can control the reading light with an in-seat P/B via the In
Flight Entertainment System (IFES).

ALTERNATIVE PROCEDURE TO EPSU BATTERY
CAPACITY CHECK
The service information letter 33-033 provides an alternative to the EPSU
battery capacity check via the MCDU. The operators may choose to
replace the EPSU battery by fully charged ones in accordance with the
Removable/Installation procedures from the AMM (MPD 335100-02-1).
The removed EPSU batteries must go through a maintenance cycle and
be stored in accordance with the vendor recommendations.
ALTERNATIVE PROCEDURE TO EPSU BATTERY CAPACITY CHECK

BATTERY CAPACITY CHECK VIA THE MCDU
The aim of this procedure is to discharge and charge the batteries installed
in the A/C via the MCDU menus.
BATTERY CAPACITY CHECK VIA THE MCDU

BATTERY CAPACITY CHECK VIA THE MCDU (continued)
CAUTION AND NOTES FOR THE PROCEDURE
CAUTION: The battery capacity test takes up to 3 HR. Make sure

that the A/C power supply stays on during the entire test
time. The batteries are discharged and charged during
the test.
NOTE: In order to get the test result, the MCDU must stay in the
menu page CIDS/EPSU/SRPSU BAT CAP TEST during
the complete test. This is due to the fact that the test result
cannot get through the menu page CIDS/EPSU/SRPSU BAT
CAP TEST RESULT (CIDS fault).
NOTE: If the battery capacity test is started during high

environmental temperature conditions (>45°C.), the status
message "BAT OVERTEMP - END OF TEST DELAYED"
is shown on the MCDU, the test is delayed. If the
temperature returns to a normal day profile, the test will
continue. The message on the MCDU remains for
information.
