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 FSX 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 right 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 Airbus 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.
