Flight Director
Figure 14
The flight director provides dual flight director
coupling capability to either the pilot or copilot
PFD, steering commands to the AFCS, and
the ability to couple to the flight management
system.
The flight director only requires pitch or roll for
synchronizing the attitude command and for
computing the command-bar outputs. When
the modes are selected, the attitude data is
always used for synchronization and
command-bar computations. The electronic
flight instrument system (EFIS) function uses
the flight director attitude command to position
the command bar on the attitude sphere for
steering commands to the flight crew.
The flight director uses heading data for
heading hold mode, independent of which
heading source is being shown on the EFIS.
The flight director can couple to short-range
navigation (SRN) units (e.g., VOR, ILS),
dependent upon which SRN is being shown
as a NAV source on the HSI. The flight director
uses the shown SRN data for the command-
bar control computations.
The preselected altitude, altitude hold target,
airspeed target, Mach target, vertical speed
target, and low-bank select are all computed
by the integrated avionics unit.

Each flight director uses air data from the air


data computer (ADC) source that is shown.
The flight director uses default values of true
airspeed and indicated airspeed, for lateral
mode gain programming, if its onside air data
is invalid.

Mach trim provides closed-loop automatic the autopilot is not engaged. The configuration
speed stability by controlling the aircraft trim functions aid the pilot by providing
attitude using the horizontal stabilizer. Relative automatic relief of control column loads via the
trim position is determined by a predetermined integrated avionics unit control of horizontal
stabilizer position versus Mach number curve, stabilizer position. The configuration trim

and spoiler select position, to compensate for
pitch movements created when the aircraft
configuration is changed. Configuration trim is
resynchronized after a manual trim input, or
when the aircraft configuration is changed.
The integrated avionics units use manual pitch
trim commands to synchronize the
Mach/configuration reference position. The
primary side of the stabilizer actuator
controller processes computer-generated
commands. Configuration trim moves the
stabilizer a preset amount in conjunction with
aircraft configuration, based on a function of
spoiler, and flap position inputs relative to
airspeed. Mach trim provides variable noseup
trim adjustments to counteract the Mach tuck
tendency at high altitudes and airspeeds as a
function of air data computer outputs.

Yaw Servo
Figure 32
The yaw servo can position the rudder under
the control of the yaw damper or rudder boost
systems. The yaw servo is a bidirectional
torque motor. It incorporates an electrical
clutch that engages only when the yaw
damper is engaged or when the rudder boost
is commanding rudder assistance. When the
clutch is engaged, the servo is connected via
a closed-loop cable to the aft rudder sector.
In the event of a malfunction, the yaw servo
clutch can be disengaged by pressing and
holding either control wheel master switch
(MSW). Depressing the MSW disconnects the
yaw damper.

LJ75_2250_0009
Rudder boost is disabled as long as the MSW
is held depressed. If the malfunction is
isolated to the rudder boost, the RUD BOOST
switch/indicator on the center pedestal can be
selected to OFF. Fig. 32: Autopilot Yaw Servo
The yaw servo receives electrical power
through the AFCS SERVOS circuit breaker
located in the FLIGHT group of circuit
breakers on the pilot circuit breaker panel.

Figure 4
Each integrated avionics unit includes a single
COM transceiver which supplies voice
communication in the 118.000 MHz to
137.000 MHz frequency band. The integrated
avionics unit 1 includes the COM 1
transceiver. The integrated avionics unit 2
includes the COM 2 transceiver. The
transceivers consist of an amplitude
modulated (AM) transmitter and a single
conversion superheterodyne AM receiver.
The COM 1 and COM 2 radios are controlled
by either touch controller (GTC) 1 or 2, or
either pilot or copilot remote controller. The
radios operate with channel spacing modes of
8.33 kHz or 25 kHz with an offset carrier
capability in 25-kHz mode (receiver). The
8.33-kHz or 25-kHz channel spacing is
controlled by the pilot and copilot from the
GTC.
Each integrated avionics unit is paired with its
onside primary flight display (PFD) from the
high-speed data bus (HSDB) for configuration
control. If a system data path failure occurs,
the two integrated avionics units communicate
directly with each other from the CAN protocol
data bus.

CONTROLLER-PILOT DATALINK COMMUNICATION


(ATA 23-25-00)

OVERVIEW
Figure 33
The optional controller-pilot datalink
communication (CPDLC) system provides
two-way datalink communication between the
flight crew and air traffic controllers. This
CPDLC system is Link 2000+ compliant and
uses text message over VHF datalink
communications. Link 2000+ is a requirement
in Europe for all aircraft that fly above FL 285.
Voice communication channels become
progressively congested and are
supplemented by air-ground datalink
communications. Because of the observed
and expected increases in air traffic levels
within Europe, parallel increases in air traffic
control capacity are required to improve
efficiency of communication between
controllers and pilots.
The CPDLC includes four main services:
• Datalink initiation capability
• ATC communications management
• ATC clearances
• ATC microphone check
The services are available above 24,500 ft
(7468 m). The communication via the CPDLC
corresponds to phraseology used during ATC
communication procedures and consists of a
set of clearance, information, or request
messages.

Figure 36
The "invisible" speaker system is installed in
the cabin. It consists of modern technology
that uses transducers that are integrated into
the window panels. Each Transducer consists
of an Exciter, Hood, and Mount. The Exciter is
installed on the panel using the Mount. The
Hood covers the Exciter to prevent
interference between it and other materials
(i.e. insulation).

ELECTRONIC FLIGHT INSTRUMENT SYSTEM


(ATA 31-60-00)

OVERVIEW
The electronic flight instrument system (EFIS)
displays flight information for the pilot and
copilot. The EFIS is integrated with the engine
indicating and crew alerting system (EICAS) to
provide the crew flight monitoring indications
and caution, warning, and advisory messages,
which alert the crew to potential out-of-
tolerance parameters.
The flight data is provided through the primary
flight displays (PFD 1 and PFD 2) and the
multifunction display (MFD).

COMPONENTS
Figure 33
The EFIS is comprised of the following sub-
systems:
• Display units (GDUs) (3)
• Touch controllers (GTCs) (2)
• Remote controllers (GCUs) (2)

Associated Components
• DU/reversion/dimming control panel
• Integrated avionics uits (GIAs) (2)
• P11 panel

There are 12 softkeys along the bottom bezel
of the display units (DUs). Depending on the
display mode, a subset of the softkeys may be
used. The softkeys shown depend on the
softkey level. Each softkey either controls a
specific item or accesses a lower level of
softkeys. For softkeys that provide a specific
control, the status of the control is
annunciated on the softkey label, either via an
on/off indicator or via text (for items where the
control has multiple states).

Stick Shakers
Figure 3
A stick shaker is installed on each control
column. Operation of the impact stick shaker
imparts a combination of shake and knock to
the control column, simulating aircraft buffet by
the shake. The tactile effect thus produced is
sufficient to give the pilot proper warning.
The shaker consists of a 28 VDC motor drive
eccentric mass, arranged so that the mass
rotates around the striker assembly, to which it
is flattened through a pivot assembly. In
operation, the annulus housing the eccentric
mass and the attached motor are driven by
their reaction to the eccentric mass, to strike
opposite sides of the cylinder alternately,
making two such strikes for each rotation of
the eccentric mass.

components that follow:
transponder system supplies the ATC radar-
beacon system (ATCRBS) ground stations or • ATC (mode S) transponders (2)
traffic alert and collision avoidance system • ATC L-band antennas (4)
(TCAS) equipped aircraft with aircraft
identification and altitude data in response to • ATC ident switches (2)
an interrogation signal. Only one transponder
can operate at a time. ASSOCIATED COMPONENTS
The ATCRBS is a surveillance system that • Touch controllers (2)
monitors the aircraft location and identification
data in an airspace. The information received • Integrated avionics units (2)
by the ground station is shown on the ground
controller air-traffic screen.
The interrogations sent by the ground station
or by a TCAS equipped aircraft are at a
frequency of 1030 MHz. The ATC transponder
sends replies at a frequency of 1090 MHz.
The interrogation and reply signals are pulse-
coded type.
The ATC transponders are used in conjunction
with the TCAS system to interrogate the
transponders of other aircraft and monitor their
replies. This permits the TCAS to track and
supply traffic advisories and resolution
advisories to the pilot and copilot to provide
aircraft separation-assurance (ASA) functions.

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

ATC Transponders
Figure 60
The ATC transponders are solid-state
components. Each transponder operates as a
normal ATCRBS transponder, but also has the
capability to send an aircraft specific
identification code (mode S). This gives the
transponder the capability to receive COAX CONNECTOR

dedicated interrogation signals from the


ground station or from a TCAS-equipped COAX
CONNECTOR
aircraft.
The ATC transponders operate in standby ATC

AVIONICS TECHNICAL TRAINING GUIDE INFORMATION SYSTEM

For each enabled SiriusXM weather product,


the system displays a weather product icon
and product age in the upper right corner of
the SiriusXM weather MFW. The product age
is the elapsed time (in minutes) since the
weather data provider compiled the weather
product. The product age display does not
indicate the age of the information contained
within the weather product, which can be
significantly older than the displayed weather
product age. The SiriusXM weather service
broadcasts weather products at specific
intervals (defined in the Broadcast Rate
column in Figures 6). If for any reason, a
product is not broadcast within the expiration
time intervals, the system removes the expired
data from the display and shows dashes
instead of the product age. This ensures the
displayed information is consistent with what
is currently being transmitted by the SiriusXM
weather service. If more than half of the
expiration time has elapsed, the color of the
product age changes to yellow. If data for a
weather product is not available, the system
displays “N/A” next to the weather product
symbol instead of the product age.
