CAS/Part No.9005000
The T
3
CAS Maintenance System Test Page displays “LRU FAIL” (FAIL
displayed in red) on row 3 if the “Terrain Awareness System Fail” aural
has been annunciated and the “Terrain Awareness LRU Pass” aural has
not been annunciated.
NOTE:
There is no LRU fail aural annunciation. However, the absence
of an “LRU PASS” aural annunciation along with a “Terrain
Awareness System Fail” aural annunciation indicates that the
T
3
CAS LRU has failed.
The T
3
CAS Maintenance System Test Page displays “SYS PASS”
(PASS displayed in green) on row 4 if the “Terrain Awareness System
Pass” aural has been annunciated.
The T
3
CAS Maintenance System Test Page displays “SYS FAIL” (FAIL
displayed in red) on row 4 if either the “Terrain Awareness System Fail”
or “Terrain Awareness System Unavailable” aural has been annunciated.
(e) ACD Options Pages
The T
3
CAS Maintenance ACD Options Pages follow the System Test
page.
The T
3
CAS Maintenance ACD Options Pages display a “-” in place of
each character if the corresponding data (Callout Options, Configuration
Options binary and enumerated, and Volume Levels) is invalid or is not
available. For example, if the High-Impedance Volume Level is not
available in place of the volume level value, “---” (3 dashes) will be
displayed.
If the Call Out Enable is disabled, the ACD Options Page 12/25 will
display “ALL CALL OUT OPTS DISABLED” as shown in Figure 6-35.
NOTE:
If the callout options are disabled, only the ACD Options Page
12/25, is affected. All remaining pages, configuration (binary
and enumerated) data and volume level will still be displayed.
Figure 6-35: ACD Option Page (Page 12/25) – Call Out Options Disabled
If the Call Out Enable is enabled, the ACD Options Page 12/25 will
display the hex representation of the Call Out Options as shown in
Figure 6-36. The correlation table for the displayed hex values is shown
in Table 6-4. In the example shown in Figure 6-36, all options are
selected to enabled.
