J1--31 SOURCE SELECT DISCRETE INPUT (NO):
This discrete input is used in conjunction with configuration straps CS0, CS1 and CS2 to
program the VSI/TRA to accept and use the vertical speed data being supplied. In some
installations, this discrete is connected to a switch in the Flight Deck and is used to select
between primary and secondary ARINC 429 vertical speed inputs. It is hard wired to
configuration strap common if ac or dc analog vertical speed inputs are used. Cycle
power to update to the new configuration.
The following applies: O = Open, G = Ground.
