AUDIO MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The Audio Management System determines which sources you
will hear. With the button depressed the source is not heard,
with the button depressed and lit the corresponding source is
heard. Please note that P3D does not have a separate ILS receiver
and that is always linked to VOR 1.
DOORS AND WINDOWS
The external doors and cargo hatches can be opened using a simulated
page in the third Settings MCD under the ACFT DOORS page. When
the aircraft is stopped, engines are off and the parking brakes (or
chocks) are set, you can open the doors via this menu. The door
identifier will blink when the door is being opened or closed. This
menu is not available when the aircraft is not stationary, with engines
off and on parking brakes (or with wheel chocks activated).
All external doors in the A32x are
conventional in design and operation and all
door operation can be monitored on the
ECAM DOORS page. The ECAM DOOR/OXY
page will appear automatically:
• as the default ECAM system display
page with the engines shut down
• when any door is not closed, and an
engine is running.
It may also be selected by depressing the
DOOR pb on the ECAM panel.
During taxying it is allowed to open the cockpit windows.
The cargo doors should never be open with the right engine running. The cockpit door should stay locked
in flight and a small video camera (with a display mounted above the door) allows the crew to see who is
behind the door.
