2.7 REVERSIONARY MODE

The PFD is designed to enter a reversionary (backup)

mode based on automatic fault monitoring and detec

tion internal switching. Reversionary mode can also be

activated by manually pressing a dedicated DISPLAY

BACKUP button at the bottom of the Audio Panel (refer

to Audio Panel section). In reversionary mode, the CDUs

are re-conﬁgured to present the PFD symbology together

with the engine parameters (engine parameters are incor-

porated on the left side of the display).

Figure 2-66 PFD Reversionary Mode

Transition for the pilot is straightforward since PFD pa-

rameters are presented in the same format as that prior to

the re-conﬁguration. In the event of a display failure, the

pilot loses one NAV, one COM and GPS as listed below:

• PFD failure – NAV1, COM1 and GPS1 are lost.

• MFD failure – NAV2, COM2 and GPS2 are lost.

NOTE: Refer to the System Overview section for

additional information regarding reversionary

mode.
