AIRBUS 320 SYSTEMS SUMMARY Instrument / Nav / Comm ECAM

The ECAM (Electronic Centralized Aircraft Aircraft Monitoring) system is made up of two primary components, two SDACs SDACs (System Data Ac!uisition Ac!uisition Concentrators) and two "#Cs ("light ("light #arning Computers)$ A loss of only one SDAC or only one "#C will not result in any loss of function$ The second computer can handle all functions alone$ The SDACs recei%e data from sensors and will send signals to & DMCs (Display Management Computer) which generate the screen image$ The SDACs also send signals to the "#C$ The "#C will generate %arious warning'caution messages$ The E'#D (Engine'#arning (Engine'#arning Display) is the display that shows normal engine readings and ECAM messages$ The SD (System Display) is directly elow the E'#D and normally shows system pages or status$ "or information on switching screens in case of failures see E"S later in this section$ ECAM uses color to indicate the importance of the indication* +ED -+A./E (AM0E+) /+EE. #1TE 034E (C5A.) (C5A.) 64+63E (MA/E.TA) (MA/E.TA)

-ne area that gi%es many new Airus pilots prolems is ma2ing changes to the "M/C flight plan once under way$ There are se%eral %ery common ways to enter reroutes into the "M/C, depending on the nature of the reroute$ Direct 6ress the D+ 2ey and type in the fi: (-+ or intersection)$ 6ress the 3SG 83 2ey to enter the fi:$ The "M/C will automatically enter a TL6 (turning point) to create a "+-M waypoint and the fi: that is entered will ecome the T- waypoint$ Direct then as filed 4se the ao%e method or press the D+ 2ey and then find the cleared fi: in the flight plan$ 6ress the 3SG ne:t to the desired waypoint and it will ecome the T- waypoint$ 4sing either method all waypoints efore the fi: are now cleared and the remainder of the flight plan will e a%ailale as filed$ .ote if you are on heading when D+ is used the mode will change to Managed .A automatically (in other words, when you go direct in heading mode the aircraft will automatically engage .A and go to the direct fi:)$ 1eading to intercept then as filed Select the cleared intercept heading on the 1D/ selector on the "C4$ Then you must determine if the segment you ha%e een cleared to oin e:ists in your flight plan$ f it does you only ha%e to clear any waypoints that are ahead of the segment until you ha%e the proper fi: as the T- waypoint$ 4se the C3+ 2ey to clear any unwanted waypoints then engage .A$ f the needed segment is not a%ailale you must uild it$ As ao%e first select the intercept heading$ Then type in the fi: that will ecome the "+-M$ +ememer, in this case you ha%e to create a .A leg (segment) that does not currently e:ist in the "M/C$ After typing the new "+-M select it to the 3SG 93 2ey and it will ecome the T-$ .ow enter the T- fi: on the ne:t line if it does not already e:ist$ This creates the new leg segment$ .ow clear the TL6 (turning point) on 83 (clearing the TL6 allows each fi: to mo%e to its proper T- and "+-M position)$ Then engage Managed .A$ 5ou can now add any other needed fi:es until on the original route$ Then clear any remaining discontinuities$ -ffset To parallel your current course use a lateral re%ision at the "+-M waypoint$ Type in the amount of distance (up to ;F nm) to the side you wish to parallel the current course and right or left of course$ "or e:ample for 9F miles left of course type 9F3 and for &; miles right of course type &;+$ .ow select the amount into the -""SET prompt on 3SG 93$ 5ou can see the anticipated new offset course on the .D$ f you wish to adust it press E+ASE and type in the new amount$ -nce satisfied with the new course press .SE+T$ Aircraft will ta2e a R;P cut to the new course$ To resume the original course access the same -""SET prompt and clear or go D+ECT to a fi: on the original flight plan$
