1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
– The Boeing 747-406 aircraft in service with KLM are long range subsonic aircraft powered by fourturbofan engines.
– There are three configurations:S Non convertible (All pax only).S Convertible (Combi or All pax).S Freighter
– The aircraft is powered by four General Electric CF6-80C2 twin spool axial flow high bypass ratioengines. It is equipped with a Full Authority Digital Electronic Control System (FADEC), also referredto as Electronic Engine Control (EEC).
– An auxiliary Power Unit (APU) is located in the tail section. It is capable of supplying electrical andpneumatic power.
– Hydraulic power is supplied by four independent hydraulic systems.
– Flight control surfaces are power actuated without manual reversion. Redundancy is achieved by themultiple hydraulic system concept.
– The landing gear consists of a steerable dual wheel nose gear, two steerable 4-wheel body gears andtwo 4-wheel wing gears.
– Three independent Inertial Reference Systems (IRS) provide in conjunction with the FlightManagement System (FMS) an en route navigation capability, which is essentially independent of anyground based aids.
– The Autopilot Flight Director System (AFDS) provides flight guidance and flight director display oneach pilots panel and approach guidance with fail operational characteristics to permit CAT II/IIIautomatic approach, landing and rollout. All relevant indications are displayed on the Primary FlightDisplay (PFD).
– Two independent FMSs provide navigation guidance (lateral and vertical), with performance andenergy (fuel) management functions, to permit optimum completion of a desired flightplan.
– System descriptions, applicable to the freighter, that differ last those for the Combi/ All Fax, arepublished on green pages and are incorporated behind the page of each relevant (sub)chapter.As a reference, item numbering according the contents page is used in order to indicate where thefreighter differs from either the non--convertible or convertible configuration.

2. PANEL LAY-OUT
Six Cathode Ray Tube electronic displays (CRTs) are used for flight guidance, navigation and monitoringof the aircraft systems.These six displays are identical and interchangeable and can operate in any of the six positions.
The pilots panels are devoted to flight guidance and navigation information and comprise two CRTs each,one Primary Flight Display (PFD), located directly in line with the pilot’s eye reference point, and locatedinboard the Navigation Display (ND).Also provided are navigation system source selectors, ground proximity switches and the autobrakesselector, brake pressure indicator and the clocks.
The pilots center panel contains two Engine Indicating and Crew Alerting System (EICAS) displaysreferred to as the upper and lower EICAS displays because of their vertical arrangement. Under normaloperation these displays are used to display primary and secondary parameters. The EICAS controlpanel is directly above the upper EICAS display.Three mechanical standby instruments are also located on the center instrument panel for attitude,airspeed and altitude readings.The pilots center panel provides also the landing gear lever and alternate flap and gear controls.
The glareshield panel provides the AFDS mode control panel, two EFIS control panels and the EICASselect panel.On the side of the glareshield panel individual light controls are provided, together with a stopwatchbutton. On top of the glareshield is the Normal Checklist holder.
The lower part of the overhead panel is devoted to aircraft system controls and indicators. The upper partof the overhead panel consists of a circuit breaker panel (P7) and a maintenance panel. Also the aislestand flood light and the smoke removal control can be found in between the circuit breaker panels.
The pedestal provides amongst others:Navigation controls and audio control panels. MCDUs, engine controls, fuel controls, flaps andspeedbrakes. Stab trim, aileron and rudder trim, radar controls, cabin interphone controls, ATC controlpanel and emergency evacuation control panel.
The side panels contain a steering handwheel or tiller, full face oxygen mask, space for the emergencychecklist and for a navigation bag.
The first observers panel contains a full face oxygen mask and full audio communication provision. Thesoftware data loader is also situated in this panel.
A circuit breaker panel (P6) is located at the righthand side below the first observers panel.
The second observers panel contains a full face oxygen mask and audio monitor possibilities, connectedto either the F/O or first observers audio system.

3. SYSTEM OPERATION PHILOSOPHY
The Engine Indicating And Crew Alerting System (EICAS) is a very important system on the flightdeck. Acontrol panel is located on the glareshield panel and two CRTs on the center instrument panel and lowercenter panel. Inputs from the aircraft systems are processed and EICAS will:
– During Normal Operation:S monitor the systems.S display information most relevant to the actual status and the condition of the systems.
– Under Abnormal Conditions:S alert via warning lights and/or aural signal.S identify the failure.
As a consequence there is no need to monitor the overhead panel during normal operation.This panel contains the control switches and P/Bs of the main aircraft systems. A great number of theP/Bs have integrated annunciators.The annunciations indicate the mode of operation. Also, in the lower half of the P/B, failure or alertwarnings are annunciated.An illuminated warning light, in the P/B or adjacent to it, is a guide to the P/B or switch to be used.
The P/Bs consist of two types:
– Alternate Action P/BsAlternate action P/Bs have two positions. When pushed ON, the P/B is flush with the panel. Whenpushed OFF, the P/B extends. An alternate action P/B uses a mechanical shutter to show P/Bposition. In the ON position, a word or flow bar is shown. In the OFF position, the mechanical shuttercloses, and covers the word or flow bar.
– Momentary Action P/BsMomentary action P/Bs are spring loaded to the OUT position and always return to the out positionwhen released. Momentary action P/B’s have two functions. They may be used to activate ordeactivate system operation or to reset system logic. Momentary action P/Bs do not have mechanicalshutters
P/B indicator lights
Both alternate action and momentary action P/Bs may use indicator lights. Indicator lights illuminate todirect crew attention to a system where a fault exists.

Main Deck Doors
A main cabin door can be opened from either the inside or outside of the aircraft by means of a doorhandle. The plug type door moves inwards then swings outwards.
An AUTOMATIC/MANUAL selector is located under an access cover above the door handle.With AUTOMATIC selected the emergency operation is armed. In MANUAL the emergency operation isnot armed.
In MANUAL the door shall be pushed outwards until the door-hold-open latch holds the door.In AUTOMATIC a power assist system takes over when the door is pushed slightly outwards. Also theslide/raft inflates.A main cabin door can be opened from outside by means of pulling out and turning the door handle. If adoor is in AUTOMATIC, pulling the door handle out of the recess will move the Yellow Door Selector toMANUAL to avoid slide inflation.
A main cabin door can be closed by releasing the door-hold-open latch and pulling the door inwards.
CAUTION: Do not open door 13 and/or 23 except for emergency purposes as these doors might bedifficult to close at high grossweight, due to distortion of the airframe.

4. EMERGENCY LIGHTS AND CABIN SIGNS
Interior emergency lighting consists of flightdeck dome, door, aisle, cross-aisle, escape path and exitlights and luminescent exit signs. Floor Proximity Emergency Escape Path Marking (FPEEPM) consistsof floor mounted locator lights, spaced at intervals in the aisles, cross-aisles and stairway.Additional battery powered exit identifier lights are located at each cabin exit. When illuminated, theescape path lighting provides visual guidance for emergency evacuation when all sources of cabinlighting, more than four feet above the aisle floor, are obscured by smoke.
Exterior emergency lighting consists of escape slide and overwing area lights.
Each emergency light unit is powered by its own battery. Under normal operation the battery charge ismaintained by DC Bus 4. A fully charged battery should provide 15 minutes of emergency power.External emergency lighting is designed to illuminate all escape slides, ramps and overwing areas.Emergency lights for all doors are mounted on the respective door.
The emergency lighting system can be controlled either from the flightdeck or at door 11. The threeposition Emergency Lights Switch on the flightdeck is used to activate the system manually or to arm thesystem for automatic operation.Automatic operation occurs whenever DC power fails or is turned off.The P/B located on the handset cradle of the cabin attendant seat at door 11, can activate the systemregardless of the position of the flightdeck switch.

Drinking water and toilet flush water is supplied from three (Combi - 7 pallet config) or four (Pax config)storage tanks located at the aft end of the forward cargo compartment. The total usable capacity is 1250liters (3 tanks) and 1660 liters (4 tanks).The water system is externally serviced at the water service panel located below the fuselage forward ofthe wing. The required water quantity can be preselected prior to refilling. Water quantity indicators arelocated at the service panel and at the Purser Work Station. Bleed air from the engines maintains apressure in the tanks during flight. When duct pressure is low, tank pressure can be supplied by anelectrically driven compressor. The pressure in the tanks provides water flow to galleys and lavatories.Two electrically operated valves are installed in the supply lines to shut-off water supply to galleys andlavatories forward or aft of the wing leading edge in case of water leakage. Each valve can be controlledfrom the Purser Work Station.
Each lavatory water system can be isolated from the distribution system by a manually operated watershutoff valve located at the base of the lavatory cabinet.Access to the shutoff valve is through a removeable panel in each individual lavatory.
VALVE HANDLE
VALVECABINET PANEL
LAVATORY WATER SHUTOFF VALVE
Water from the galleys and lavatory wash basins is drained overboard through 3 drain masts.
The toilet waste system uses a vacuum system to collect, transport and store toilet waste. The four wastetanks and associated vacuum system components are located in the bulk cargo compartment behind thecompartment sidewall lining.The vacuum system uses differential cabin pressure or vacuum blowers. The vacuum blowers operateautomatically at airplane altitudes below 16.000 ft and on the ground.A flush valve located at the base of the toilet bowl, opens two seconds after the flush switch is activatedand remains open for four seconds.Should the flush valve fail in the open position, it can be manually closed by pulling the handle locatedbelow the toilet shroud. The handle cannot be used to open the flush valve.

1.2.1Page 1
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The airconditioning system provides conditioned bleed air and recirculated air at a controlledtemperature throughout the passenger zones and flightdeck.
The forward cargo compartment is also provided with a temperature- and airflow-controlledairconditioning system.
The aircraft is divided into eight temperature zones: the flightdeck, upperdeck, maindeck zonesA through E and forward cargo compartment.
Air sources for airconditioning are:– Engine bleed air– APU bleed air– Ground pneumatic source
Three airconditioning packs deliver conditioned air to a distribution manifold where hot trim air andrecirculated air are added for proper temperature control in each temperature zone.Recirculation fans augment cabin air ventilation allowing packs to be operated at a reduced flow duringcruise.
Airconditioning pack control, cabin air recirculation and fault protection are all automatic.In the event of system failure a backup mode is available for temperature control.
An independent gasper air distribution system supplies recirculated air from above the cabin ceiling tothe individual air outlets located above the passenger seats.
Flightdeck crew foot and shoulder heaters are provided for crew comfort.
Maindeck cabin doors, except doors 5, are provided with electrical heaters in the supply ducts to preventcold areas around the doors.
Conditioned air is also used for:– Ventilation and cooling of electronic equipment in the flightdeck and main equipment center.– Ventilation of the galleys and lavatories.
The aft cargo compartments are heated by use of hot air from the pneumatic system.
If on the ground no pneumatic air is available for operation of the airconditioning packs, an externalairconditioning source can be connected directly to the conditioned air distribution manifold.In this case individual zone temperature control and conditioned air control for the forward cargocompartment are not available.

2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS
2.1 AIRCONDITIONING PACKS
Three identical airconditioning packs, located under the wing center section, remove heat from thepneumatic bleed air used by the airconditioning system.
The pack outlet temperature is regulated by positioning the ram air doors and turbine bypass valve ofeach individual pack.The pack outlet temperature of all packs is determined by the zone requiring the coolest ducttemperature.With the forward cargo airconditioning system operating, pack 3 outlet temperature is determined by thezone requiring the coolest duct temperature including the FWD cargo compartment.
Pack operation, cabin air recirculation, pack fault and overheat protection are controlled by two packtemperature controllers, A and B. Although both controllers simultaneously receive identical information,only one controller is active at a time. Controller change-over takes place automatically between flightsand in the event of a failure of the active controller.
If both pack controllers A and B fail, the airconditioning packs will continue to operate but temperaturecontrol is lost.The pack overheat protection system continues to operate normally. A pack overheat will result in a shutdown.
The amount of bleed air through each airconditioning pack is controlled by a pack valve. Each pack valvehas two flow settings, normal and high. The normal flow rate is 2/3 of the high flow rate.
On the ground, during climb and during descent, all three packs are normally at high flow. To reducebleed air demands, system logic automatically programs the packs to normal flow during cruise.With the forward cargo airconditioning system operating, pack 3 will remain in normal flow during allflight phases.
When a pack or recirculation fan fails or is selected off, the operating packs will switch automatically tohigh flow to maintain proper ventilation.
High flow can also be selected manually by pushing the HI FLOW P/B on the overhead panel.
When the packs are commanded from normal to high flow and visa versa, they will switch one by one witha time interval, to prevent cabin pressure surges.
Pack flow schedule is as follows:

2.2 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
Conditioned air is delivered by three packs into a common duct from which it is distributed to 7 zones:the flight deck, upper deck, and main deck zones A through E. The forward cargo compartment issupplied with conditioned air directly from pack 3.
Cabin distribution ducts run along the cabin ceiling. Air enters the cabin through grills located left andright underneath the hatracks. Cabin discharge air exhausts through floor level side wall grills into thelower cargo compartment sidewall areas.The air then flows either forward to the forward overboard valve, or aft to the outflow valves.The forward overboard valve is used to improve circulation in the forward section of the airplane.On Combi airplanes a shutoff valve is installed in the overhead zone E main distribution duct. The valvecloses when the maindeck fire bottles are discharged.The flight deck distribution system distributes air through outlets at each crew station consisting of ceilingoutlets, floor and side window outlets, and the windshield nozzles.
Two ground connectors for an external airconditioning source are located in the airconditioning packcompartment.
2.3 ZONE TEMPERATURE CONTROL
Flight Deck and Passenger Automatic Temperature Control
Flight deck and passenger cabin air temperature is controlled automatically by a zone temperaturecontroller.
The target temperature for each passenger zone is a summation of the master temperature set by theflight crew, zone temperature inputs from the Purser Work Station and automatic comfort correctionsmade by the zone temperature controller in flight.Comfort corrections are made to compensate for perceived temperature changes as cabin air humidityand passenger activity decrease during flight.
With the Passenger Temperature Selector on the overhead panel in any AUTO range position, a mastertemperature is set from 18⎪C to 29⎪C. The temperature of each passenger zone may be further modifiedplus or minus 6⎪C from the selected master temperature within the range of 18⎪C to 29⎪C.This is accomplished with the cabin temperature selector panel located at the purser work station.After engine start all inputs from the cabin temperature selector panel are reset to the mastertemperature selection for all passenger zones.
On Combi airplanes the temperature of the maindeck cargo compartment (zone E) is controlledindependently of the passenger zones and can be set from 4⎪ C to 27⎪ C by means of a temperatureselector located at the loadmaster control panel near the maindeck side cargo door.
The zone temperature controller compares desired target temperatures from each zone with the actualzone temperatures to calculate the required duct temperature.The pack temperature controller regulates the pack outlet temperature to satisfy the zone requiring thecoolest duct temperature.The zone temperature controller then modulates individual zone trim air valves to add hot bleed air to theconditioned air to achieve the respective zone target temperatures.
The Flight Deck Temperature Selector is used to control flight deck temperature. The temperature rangein AUTO is from 18⎪C to 29⎪C. The Zone Temperature Controller will modulate the flightdeck trim airvalve to achieve the selected target temperature.
The master temperature, target and actual temperature for all zones are displayed on the ECS synoptic.

Passenger Backup Temperature Control
In the event of a system failure, a backup mode will activate automatically. In this case the zonetemperature controller is bypassed, the master trim air valve is driven closed and trim air is no longeradded to the conditioned air.
In the backup mode, using the Passenger Temperature Selector in the AUTO range, the pack outlettemperature can be regulated to achieve an average temperature between 18⎪C and 29⎪C.Manual control of the flightdeck zone trim air is not available.
The cabin temperature cannot be controlled through the cabin temperature selector panel.
Passenger Alternate Temperature Control
The alternate mode may be selected manually by rotating the Passenger Temperature Selector to ALTN.In this mode the zone temperature controller is bypassed and the zone trim air valves remain in the lastselected position.In this case trim air is added to the conditioned air if the master trim air valve is open.The pack outlet temperature is regulated to achieve an average cabin temperature of 24⎪C.
In the alternate mode, manual control of the flight deck trim air valve is available if the master trim airvalve is open.
The cabin temperature cannot be controlled through the cabin temperature selector panel.
Flightdeck Manual Temperature Control
With the Flightdeck Temperature Selector in Manual the flight deck trim air valve can be controlledmanually, provided master trim air is available.
2.4 SUPPLEMENTAL HEATING SYSTEMS
Crew Foot and Shoulder Heating System
Foot and shoulder heaters are provided for the captain and first officer. The shoulder heater is an electricalheater that adds heat to conditioned air flowing to the side windows and pilot shoulder area, and operatesonly in flight. A control knob located on each pilot side wall panel can be used to control the flow rate fromthe shoulder heater outlets.The foot heaters are electric plate heaters located beneath the captain’s and first officer’s feet.The heaters operate only in flight.Control switches are located on the pilot’s outboard consoles.
Cockpit Crew Rest Heating System
Two supplemental heating systems are provided, one for the bunk area and one for the seat area.Each heating system consists of an electrical heater and a control panel with variable temperatureselections.The electrical heaters add heat to the conditioned air coming from the upperdeck distribution duct.An overheat protection system limits the air temperature.
Overhead Crew Rest Airconditioning System
Two operating modes are available, a Normal mode and a Bypass mode.
In the Normal mode, conditioned air coming from the zone D distribution duct is cooled or heated by adedicated airconditioning unit.The crew can use two temperature switches to set the target temperature.
In the Bypass mode, which is used when the airconditioning unit is unserviceable, conditioned air fromthe zone D distribution duct is supplied directly into the OCR.In this case no target temperature can be selected.

2.5 RECIRCULATION AND GASPER AIR SYSTEM
Four recirculation fans augment the packs to maintain a constant ventilation rate throughout the cabin.The fans draw cabin air through filters, then reintroduce the air into the conditioned air distributionsystem.There are two upper fans located above the main passenger compartment ceiling and two lower fanslocated below the main passenger cabin floor.The pack temperature controllers control the recirculation fans automatically.With all three packs in high flow, only the two upper recirculation fans will operate. With all three packs innormal flow, all four recirculation fans will operate.If a recirculation fan fails or is switched off, pack flow and recirculation fan operation will reconfigure tomaintain proper ventilation.
A gasper fan draws air from the area above the cabin ceiling and rises its pressure to provide positive airsupply to the individual adjustable air outlet nozzles located above the passenger seats.The gasper fan operates independently from the airconditioning system and is controlled by theGASPER P/B on the overhead panel.
2.6 GALLEY AND LAVATORY VENTILATION SYSTEM
The ventilation system draws air (odors) from the galleys and lavatories by means of exhaust fans.The air is ducted aft and dumped overboard through the outflow valves.Exhaust fan operation is controlled automatically.
2.7 FORWARD CARGO COMPARTMENT HEATING AND AIRCONDITIONING
Cargo Heating
Warm air from the equipment cooling system is discharged in the forward cargo compartment for heating.When the compartment temperature drops below 4⎪C two electrical heaters are automatically switchedon until compartment temperature reaches 10⎪C. The heaters are inhibited when the FWD cargoairconditioning system is operating.
Cargo Air Conditioning
The forward cargo compartment is supplied with conditioned air directly from pack 3.In addition hot trim air is added to achieve the selected target temperature.The controls for the forward cargo airconditioning system consist of a Cargo A/C Flow Selector and aTemperature Selector. They are located inside the forward cargo compartment near the door and are notaccessible during flight.
With the flow selector positioned in OFF, conditioned air to the cargo compartment is shut off.With the flow selector positioned in LOW, pack 3 conditioned air is routed equally to the maindeckdistribution system and the forward cargo compartment.With the flow selector in the HIGH position, all pack 3 conditioned air is routed to the forward cargocompartment.
The conditioned air is discharged overboard through a dedicated cargo exhaust system.
If an overheat condition occurs in the forward cargo compartment, the trim air to the supply duct is shutoffautomatically. In this case pack 3 maintains the compartment temperature which was sensed before theoverheat occurred.
With the forward cargo airconditioning system operating, pack 3 will always remain in normal flow duringall flight phases, to assure adequate smoke detection in the compartment.
Actual and target temperatures are displayed on the ECS synoptic.The target temperature is not displayed when the cargo airconditioning system is OFF or pack 3 is notoperating.

2.8 FORWARD OVERBOARD VALVE
The Forward Overboard Valve is located adjacent the nose gear wheel well. The valve improvesventilation in the forward section of the airplane. Valve operation is controlled automatically.
2.9 AFT CARGO COMPARTMENT HEATING
Aft cargo compartment heat is provided by bleed air from the center section of the pneumatic duct.Two temperature selections can be made by a switch located inside the bulk compartment near the door.
With the Aft Cargo Heat P/B selected ON the override valve will open. When the compartmenttemperature is lower than the selected temperature, the temperature control valve will open until theselected temperature is reached.
When the temperature control valve fails to close, the compartment temperature will reach the overheatrange. At approx. 32⎪C the override valve will take control and the compartment temperature will beregulated at this value.
Only the actual cargo compartment temperature is displayed on the ECS synoptic.

The temperature for the Crew Rest and the Upper Deck can be set from 18�C to 29�Cat the Upper Deck Cabin Services Module.After engine start all settings on the Upper Deck Cabin Serives Control Temperature Selector Panel arereset to 24�C.The temperature of the forward and aft Main Deck is controlled independantly of the Flight Deck, UpperDeck and Crew Rest zones and can be set from 4�C to 29�C by means of a temperature selector locatedon the overhead panel.With the Lower Lobe Cargo conditioned Air Flow Rate Selector in OFF, the pack temperature controllerregulates the pack outlet temperature of all packs to satisfy the zone requiring the coolest ducttemperature.With the Lower Lobe Cargo conditioned Air Flow Rate Selector not in OFF, the Flight Deck, Upper Deck,Crew Rest or Main Deck zone requiring the coolest temperature controls pack 1 outlet temperature.When Pack 2 or Pack 3 is not supplying conditioned air to its respective cargo zone, the outlet packtemperature is the same as pack 1.
Backup Temperature Control
In the event of a system failure on the Flight Deck, Upper Deck or Main Deck, a backup mode will activateautomatically. In this case the zone temperature controller is bypassed, the master trim air valve is drivenclosed and trim air is no longer added to the conditioned air.
In the backup mode, using the Flight DeckTemperature Selector in the AUTO range, the pack outlettemperature can be regulated to achieve an average temperature between 18�C and 29�C.Manual control of the flightdeck zone trim air is not available.
In the event of a system failure in a lower lobe cargo compartment, the respective cargo compartmentzone trim air valve will close and the backup mode is activated in the respective cargo compartment.Positioning the temperature selector from AUTO to MAN, from MAN to AUTO, or the flow rate selector toOFF resets the lower cargo air conditioning. This allows the respective zone trim air valve to reopen andenables automatic temperature control to be reselected.
The cabin temperature cannot be controlled through the Upper Deck Cabin Services Module.

2.11 FLIGHT DECK FAN
On the ground, the Flight Deck Fan increases the flow of conditioned air to the flight deck when at leastone pack is operating and supplies recirculated air to the flight deck when all packs are off.
The Flight Deck fan is inhibited when airborne.
2.12 FIRE ARMING AND CREW REST SMOKE DETECTION MODES
In the fire arming mode, pack operation and air distribution is configured to starve the affected zone offresh air, minimalize air movement, purge smoke from the flight deck and upper deck, and increase thesupply of fresh air to the flight deck.The increase of fresh air to the flight deck prevents smoke from reaching te upper deck area’s.
If smoke is detected in the crew rest area, the crew rest air supply valves close and remain closed untilreset. Pushing the Crew Rest Reset Push button on the Upper deck Cabin Services Module resets thevalves if smoke is no longer detected.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The cabin is pressurized with conditioned air from the packs.Cabin altitude is controlled by regulating the discharge of conditioned air through two outflow valves atthe rear of the cabin. The system operates fully automatic and maintains the cabin differential pressure atapprox. 8.8 psi.There are two identical cabin pressure controllers, designated A and B.Although both controllers simultaneously receive identical information, only one controller is active at atime. Controller change-over takes place automatically between flights and in the event of a failure of theactive controller. The system can be operated manually by switching either one or both outflow valves tomanual control. The outflow valve not selected for manual operation remains under the control of thecabin pressure controller.
The active cabin pressure controller uses origin airport elevation, cruise altitude and landing altitudeinformation from the FMS and automatically positions the outflow valves to conform to cabin altitudeclimb and descent rate limits, differential pressure limits, and to achieve the correct landing cabinaltitude. Barometric correction for automatic pressure control is dependent on either pilot’s altimetersetting. The initial pressurization, slightly above ambient pressure, begins when the airplane reaches65 knots ground speed during take-off.The cabin pressure controller automatically sets cabin altitude slightly below destination field elevation,so that the cabin is slightly pressurized on landing. At touchdown, the outflow valves are driven to the fullopen position, depressurizing the cabin.Landing altitude can also be selected manually from 2000 feet below sea level to 14.000 feet above sealevel using the Landing Altitude Selector. In cruise, if the landing altitude is manually set to an altitudehigher than the cabin altitude, the cabin altitude will climb, at a rate set by the cabin pressure controller,to the selected altitude or 8000 feet maximum.With the system in the automatic mode, the outflow valves close automatically when cabin altitudeexceeds 11.000 feet.
2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS
2.1 OUTFLOW VALVES
Two identical flapper door type valves are located on the underside of the fuselage aft of the bulk cargocompartment. The valves control the discharge rate of compartment air and are driven by 2 actuators,one for the AUTO mode and one for the MAN mode. Valve position is indicated on the pilots overheadpanel and ECS page on the lower EICAS display.
2.2 POSITIVE PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES
Two positive pressure relief valves located on the LH side of the forward cargo compartment, protect theairplane structure against overpressure.At 9.25 psi cabin differential pressure, one or both valves will open. The valves close automatically atnormal differential pressure. If all three packs are in high flow, pack 2 shuts down automatically to assistin relieving excessive cabin pressure, if either cabin pressure relief valve opens.Pack 2 resets when both cabin pressure relief valves are closed.
2.3 NEGATIVE PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES
Four negative pressure relief valves are installed, 2 in each forward and aft cargo door. On combiairplane two additional relief valves are installed in the main deck cargo door.The valves protect the aircraft structure against negative pressure.

1.2.3Page 1
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The equipment cooling system provides cooling air for flightdeck equipment and the electrical andelectronic (E & E) compartment equipment racks. The system uses internal cooling fans and valves todirect cool cabin air from inside the lower fuselage into the equipment racks. The warm exhaust air isducted overboard, or into the forward cargo compartment.
The system has three modes of operation: NORM mode, STBY mode and OVRD mode.The NORM and STBY mode are used on the ground and in flight.The OVRD mode is only used in flight.
With the Equipment Cooling Selector in NORM, both the supply and exhaust fan operate and the bypassand smoke/override valves are closed. With engines not running and the forward cargo A/C system OFF,warm exhaust air is ducted either through the inboard exhaust valve into the forward cargo compartment,or through the ground exhaust valve overboard, depending on outside air temperature.
On the ground, with one or more engines running on each wing, the system configures for flight. In theflight configuration, exhaust air is ducted into the forward cargo compartment and the ground exhaustvalve is closed to allow cabin pressurization after take-off. If the equipment cooling system is notcorrectly configured for flight after engine start, the STBY mode may be used.
With the Equipment Cooling Selector in STBY, the system functions the same as in NORM mode, exceptthat the ground exhaust valve is always closed and the exhaust air is ducted into the forward cargocompartment, regardless of outside air temperatures.
The OVRD mode can provide equipment cooling in flight and can be selected in case of inadequatecooling airflow (fan failure), overtemperature or smoke detection.
With the Equipment Cooling Selector in OVRD, both cooling fans are turned off, the inboard supply andinboard exhaust valves are closed and the smoke/override valve opens to an overboard vent, allowingcabin differential pressure to create a reverse air flow through the equipment racks.
The equipment cooling system automatically configures to the OVRD mode when the FWD orAFT CARGO FIRE ARM P/B is set to the ARMED position.
With the Equipment Cooling Selector in either NORM or STBY, the system compensates for a singlecooling fan failure, by closing the inboard supply and inboard exhaust valves and by opening the bypassvalve to allow internal circulation of the cooling air through the flight deck and main equipment racks.There will be no airflow to the forward cargo compartment.
When the forward cargo A/C system is selected ON, the equipment cooling system will operate asfollows:– During ground operation equipment cooling air is ducted overboard through the ground exhaust
valve, irrespective of the outside air temperature, until engine start.– After engine start, and inflight until an altitude of 15.000 ft is reached, and from top of descent,
equipment cooling air circulates internally (inboard supply valve and inboard exhaust valve closed,bypass valve open).
– Above 15.000 ft until top of descent, the system operates normally, with cooling air exhausting in theforward cargo compartment.
Smoke and no-airflow detection devices will generate the EICAS warning alert EQUIP COOLING.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
On the ground, with one or more engines running on each wing, the system configures for flight. Flightconfiguration depends on the position of the Lower Lobe Cargo Conditioned Air Flow Rate Selector andthe temperature selected by the Forward Lower Lobe Cargo Temperature Selector.With FWD Airconditioning in FWD HIGH, FWD LOW or BOTH LOW and the temperature selected islower than 10� C, the equipment cooling air is recirculated in a closed loop mode. With higher selectedtemperatures or forward airconditioning not selected on the inboard exhaust valve is open and the warmequipment cooling exhaust air discharges into the forward cargo compartment.
With the Equipment Cooling Selector in STBY, the system functions the same as in NORM mode.
The OVRD mode can provide equipment cooling in flight and can be selected in case of inadequatecooling airflow (fan failure), overtemperature or smoke detection.With the Equipment Cooling Selector in OVRD, both cooling fans are turned off, the inboard supply andinboard exhaust valves are closed, flight deck equipment cooling source valve opens to the E/Eequipment cooling duct, and the smoke/override valve opens to an overboard vent, allowing cabindifferential pressure to create a reverse air flow through the equipment racks.
The equipment cooling system automatically configures to the OVRD mode when the FWD, AFT or MAINCARGO FIRE ARM P/B is set to the ARMED position, and turns off all airflow and heat into lower cargocompartments.
With two or three packs operating, the Flight Deck Equipment Cooling Source Valve directs conditionedair into the Flight Deck electrical equipment
When the forward cargo A/C system is selected ON, the equipment cooling system will operate asfollows:– During ground operation equipment cooling air is ducted overboard through the ground exhaust
valve, irrespective of the outside air temperature, until engine start.– After engine start, and inflight until an altitude of 15.000 ft is reached, and from top of descent,
equipment cooling air circulates internally (inboard supply valve and inboard exhaust valve closed,bypass valve open).
– Above 15.000 ft until top of descent, the system operates normally, with cooling air exhausting in theforward cargo compartment.

1.3 AUTOMATIC FLIGHT
1.3.1 GeneralAircraft Operations Manual 747-400
1 JUN 1999Issue 6
1.3.1Page 1
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Autoflight System consists of the Autopilot Flight Director System (AFDS) and the AutothrottleSystem (A/T). The Flight Management System (FMS) automatically manages pitch, roll and thrustthrough simultaneous control of the AFDS and A/T to optimize lateral and vertical flight path guidancethrough all flight phases.The AFDS is a triple system consisting of three individual Flight Control Computers (FCCs) and a singleMode Control Panel (MCP). The MCP provides coordinated control of autopilot, flight director, altitudealert and autothrottle functions.
Input signals to the system (Air Data, IRS, Radio Altimeter, selected FMS, MCP) are processed throughthree FCCs. Computer information can then simultaneously provide commands to aircraft controlsurfaces and flight director display.
The three FCCs, identified as left, center and right, send control signals to their respective A/P controlservos which operate the flight controls through three separate hydraulic systems. The selected A/Pcontrols the ailerons and elevator continuously.The rudder is only controlled during an ILS approach with two or three A/Ps engaged.
During an ILS approach with all three A/Ps engaged, the three FCCs are powered by separate electricalsources.
Nose wheel steering is added during automatic rollout following an automatic landing.
A/P, F/D and A/T control modes are selected on the MCP.Mode of operation is annunciated on the Primary Flight Display (PFD).
The system provides the following path control functions for automatic and/or manual (flight director)control of the airplane:– Flight Level Change (FLCH)– Heading Select (HDG SEL)– Heading Hold (HDG HOLD)– Vertical Speed (V/S)– Altitude (ALT)– Localizer (LOC)– Attitude (ATT)– Takeoff/Go-Around (TO/GA)– Approach (APP)
S Includes LOC, G/S, FLARE and ROLLOUT.– Lateral Navigation (LNAV)– Vertical Navigation (VNAV)
2. MCP MODE SELECTOR SWITCHES
MCP switches are pushed to select a mode. A light bar in the lower half of each switch illuminates toindicate that the mode has been selected and not more than that. Engagement is annunciated on thePFD. See sub para 3.
Typical example: SPD

Page 21.3.1 22 FEB 2001
Issue 6
3. MODE ANNUNCIATION
Mode arming (white) and engagement (green) are shown at the Flight Mode Annunciation (FMA) on thePFD divided into three display segments defined as A/T, Roll and Pitch.At initial engagement, an attention box around the mode is displayed for 10 seconds.
e.g.: LOC
4. MODE FAILURES
When the AFDS detects an invalid input signal a mode failure is generated.Mode failures are indicated by an AMBER line drawn through the respective mode on the FMA, and areaccompanied by the caution alert >AUTOPILOT on EICAS.The A/P will not disengage.
e.g.: LOC
Any mode failure in either pitch or roll causes the respective FD command bar to disappear.
As long as the mode failure exists, the autoflight system will operate in the attitude stabilizing mode.The pitch and/or roll attitude will be stabilized at the value which exists at the moment of mode failure.
The Inertial Reference Units, which normally calculate the aircrafts magnetic heading and track, willcompute these parameters referenced to true north as outlined according the figure in AOM 1.13.2-3.Whenever selecting either the HDG HOLD or HDG SEL mode in this area, a mode failure will occur.Selecting the HDG REF switch - located on the EICAS control panel - to the TRUE position will restorenormal system operation.
NOTE: The LNAV mode is not affected when flying north (south) of 73⎪N (60⎪S) because of an automaticfunction in the Flight Management Computer (FMC) which is independent of the HDG REF switchposition.
5. LAND 2 / LAND 3
The Autoflight System is certified for automatic approaches down to CAT IIIB landing minima, includingN-1.Autoland status, which is displayed below the FMA on the PFDs, provides information relative to thestatus of the AFDS systems for CAT 2 and CAT 3 approaches with automatic landing and rollout.With LAND 3 annunciated, the level of redundancy is such that the occurrence of any single fault wouldnot prevent the system from making an automatic landing. (fail operational).Any fault, which downgrades the level of redundancy, is shown as LAND 2 or NO AUTOLANDWith LAND 2 annunciated, the level of redundancy is such that any single fault does not cause asignificant deviation from the flight path. (fail passive).
Degradation of system redundancy is also annunciated on EICAS. Either > NO LAND 3 or> NO AUTOLAND alert can be displayed.The autoland system does not have to be in the approach mode nor in the multi-channel operation forthese alerts to be displayed.The alerts will be displayed as a caution between 1500 and 200 ft and as an advisory for all other flightphases. These alerts may be generated from the moment of power up.Whenever during a stabilized approach, while LAND 3 is annunciated, a total ILS failure occurs resultingin a mode failure of LOC and GS, the aircraft will follow a ’path in space’ based on inertial system signals.Faults that do not require immediate crew action or recognition and are related to a degradation whichoccurs below 200 ft RA, will appear as an EICAS STATUS message upon autopilot disconnect aftertouchdown.
1.3 AUTOMATIC FLIGHT
1.3.1 GeneralAircraft Operations Manual 747-400
1 JUN 1999Issue 4
1.3.1Page 3
6. FLARE
The land capability manoeuvres the aircraft within a very strictly defined touchdown zone on the runway.To accomplish this requirement, the flare control law is based on a ’path in space’ concept.To minimize the touchdown dispersion within the touchdown zone, tight vertical path control is required.System control requires a certain signal offset, necessary in order to establish the aircraft on the requiredvertical path and intended touchdown point.Since the system does not utilize any direct lift-control devices, pitch is entirely achieved throughelevator. This can imply abrupt pitch activity at low altitudes.
Flare will be initiated between 60 and 40 ft AGL, depending on sinkrate. Target sinkrate upon touchdownis 90 ftm, while the target touchdown point is situated 450 ft beyond the glideslope/runway interceptpoint. Average touchdown pitch attitude is 4.0 degrees.Parameters used in the flare calculation are groundspeed, vertical speed, pitch attitude, pitch attituderate, radio altitude, radio altitude rate, and calculated vertical and longitudinal position with respect to theILS signals.
7. NO AUTOLAND
Changes in autoland status, which occur below 200 ft RA, are not annunciated on the PFD’s except forthe message NO AUTOLAND.
If at 600 ft AGL the autoflight system has not transitioned to LAND 3 or LAND 2 when APProach has beenselected, the message ’NO AUTOLAND’ will be annunciated on the PFD.
8. STABILIZER TRIM BIAS
A stabilizer trim-up bias will be introduced below 200 ft during a dual channel approach (LAND 2annunciated), to induce a pitch-up manoeuvre in case of an inadvertent autopilot disconnect during flare.
A trim-up bias will not be induced during a triple channel approach and landing.Should an autopilot disconnect during a triple channel flare than the flare will be conducted normally bythe remaining channels.
During a single channel approach a flare manoeuvre is not certified.
9. SPEED CONTROL/PROTECTION
Speed control and protection prevents the aircraft from exceeding the speed envelope as calculated bythe FMS when in VNAV mode, or the FCC in any other mode except the Vertical Speed mode (V/S).
V/S is the only mode during which there is no speed protection other than the basic autopilot warningindicating that the minimum manoeuvring or maximum operating speed has been reached (VMO/MMO andFlap placard speed).The basic autopilot warning consists of:– AFDS mode failure indication (amber bar drawn through the mode annunciation).– EICAS Caution alert ’>AUTOPILOT’.– Aural tone (beeper).
Without interference, the aircraft will continue to accelerate or decelerate.

– At 250 Ft. AGL A/P may be engaged.
– Pitch Take-Off mode (TO/GA)S Target airspeed is 10 kts above V2 as set on MCP.S During take-off the pitchbar is commanded to a fixed attitude
of approximately 8 degrees up.S At liftoff pitch commands an attitude of 15 degrees or below
PLI.S Commands pitch attitude to maintain V2 + 10.S The target airspeed will reset to the current airspeed at VNAV
capture with a maximum of 25 kts, whenever above the targetfor 5 sec.
S If an engine failure occurs, pitch commands will be:10. V2 if airspeed below this value.11. Existing speed if between V2 and V2 + 10.12. V2 + 10 if airspeed is above this value.
– Roll Take-Off mode (TO/GA)S Commands rollbar to wings level prior to liftoff.S Maintains ground track after liftoff.
Armed– With all A/P’s disengaged and both FD’s off, selection of TO/GA
occurs when the first F/D is positioned on.
Engaged– Pushing a TO/GA switch starts the take--off phase when the flaps
are out of UP.
Disengaged– TO/GA mode is terminated by engaging any other pitch or roll
mode.– If LNAV/VNAV were armed prior to T/O:S Roll : at 50 ft RA, LNAV will engage.S Pitch : at 400 ft RA, VNAV will engage.

Rudder Control and Runway Align Operation
Rudder control is accomplished by the AFDS during a multi-channel approach. Automatic ruddercompensation is provided for an asymmetric thrust condition resulting from an engine failure conditionduring a coupled approach and the eventual Go-around. Rudder inputs are also necessary for runwayalignment.When LAND 3 or LAND 2 is annunciated, rudder control is active from each individual A/P through adedicated actuator.
When an engine-out is detected prior to the annunciation of LAND 2 or LAND 3, a sideslip manoeuvremight be initiated at 1300 ft, dependant on the direction and the magnitude of the existing crosswind.When the engine fails during the annunciation of LAND 2 or LAND 3, the sideslip manoeuvre will beinitiated instantaneously.
NOTE: If the A/Ps are disconnected or disconnect in an asymmetric thrust condition with rudder controlactive, the rudder will return to the trimmed position, unless the pilot exerts the rudder pedal forcerequired to maintain the required rudder position.
Align
Runway alignment is operative during a multi-A/P approach.Its purpose is to reduce the crab angle established during acrosswind condition on an approach prior to an automatic landing.
Operation is as follows:– When the crab angle is greater than 5⎪, alignment will start at
500 ft RA (1300 ft during N-1) when LAND 2 or LAND 3 isannunciated.A/P systems initiate a forward slip to reduce the crab angle to 5⎪.At 200 ft. RA remaining crab angle is reduced until the bankangle reaches 5⎪.
– When the required crab angle is less than 5⎪, runway alignmentoccurs at 200 ft AGL.
– Wing leveling from the slip is initiated when the ROLLOUT modeis engaged at 5 ft. RA.
– Activation is not displayed.

Flare
The FLARE mode is a multi-A/P mode. It is not intended for singleA/P or F/D only operation.
Armed– When LAND 3 or LAND 2 is annunciated on both the PFDs.– FLARE is displayed in white below the active pitch window on
both PFDs.
Engaged– Between 40 and 60 ft RA, depending on sinkrate prior to flare,
reduces the rate of descent to approx. 100 ft/min.– The FLARE engaged annunciation replaces the G/S captured
annunciation on both the PFDs.– At 30 feet RA the A/T starts retarding the Thrust Levers to idle
and the A/T annunciation changes from SPD to IDLE at 25 ft.– If a slip exists due to runway alignment, the wings are levelled
when ROLLOUT mode is engaged.– The A/Ps start lowering the nose smoothly towards the runway at
5 feet RA plus 2 seconds.
Disengaged– At touchdown.– Annunciation disappears.

APP Rollout
Rollout is a multi-A/P approach mode that provides runwaycenterline rollout guidance following touchdown.It is not intended for single A/P or F/D only operation.
Armed– When LAND 3 or LAND 2 is annunciated on both PFDs.– ROLLOUT is displayed in white below the active roll mode on the
PFDs.
Engaged– At approximately 5 feet RA.– Wing leveling from a slip is initiated.– ROLLOUT replaces the LOC captured annunciation.– Localizer centerline is maintained by A/P control of rudder and

Go-around Mode (TO/GA)
A fully automatic go-around is normally performed with multi-A/Poperation. However, a single A/P or a F/D only go-around can alsobe made.With the TO/GA mode engaged, the AFDS controls pitch and rollwhile the A/T increases thrust, as required, to establish a 2000 fpmclimb.If a touchdown occurs after initiation, the go-around will continue.
Armed– Upon G/S capture.– When flap 1 is set during approach.– T.E. flaps in landing position.– Arming is not annunciated on the PFD although the thrust
reference mode on the primary EICAS display will change intoGA.
Disarmed– The TO/GA mode remains armed until 2 seconds below 5 feet
RA during approach.
Engaged– Pushing either or both TO/GA switches during the approach,
engages the TO/GA mode for the pitch and roll mode and theTHR mode for A/T.
– TO/GA appears on both the pitch and roll FMAs on the PFDs.– Pitch increases to hold selected speed as thrust increases.– Roll channel control maintains ground track present at mode
engagement.– AFDS maintains the number of A/P channels in CMD at the time
of G/A engagement.
Disengaged– Below 400 feet RA only when disengaging AFDS.– At selected go-around altitude.
Pitch mode changes to ALT.– At LNAV and VNAV engagement.
When armed after G/A engagement and a missed approachprocedure was added to the FMS approach path.
– FIRST ENGAGED A/P remains in CMD when multi channel wasengaged.
– TO/GA remains the roll mode until another mode is selected.

2. FUNCTIONS AND MODES
The autothrottle (A/T) system provides automatic thrust control from take off initiation through climb,cruise, descent, approach and landing or go-around. The A/T system consists of the Thrust ManagementFunction of the Flight Management Computer (FMC), a portion of the controls and indicators on theAFDS MCP and a single electric servo system which actuates all the thrust levers simultaneously.
A/T operation is controlled through mode and speed selection from the MCP and thrust limits selection onthe MCDU. When in VNAV, the FMC selects A/T modes and target thrust values.The system can be used with or without either AP or FD and is available up to one engine inoperative.In case of a dual FMC failure, or with two or more engines inoperative, the autothrottle is inoperative.
A/T warnings and thrust limit values are displayed on EICAS.Mode annunciation is displayed on both PFDs.
The A/T system moves all thrust levers to the selected thrust reference value as displayed on primaryEICAS. The thrust levers then remain stationary while the Full Authorized Digital Electronic Control(FADEC), generally called Electronic Engine Control (EEC), trims each engine to equalize the thrustthrough control by the master FMC, as selected with the FMC master selector.This trim margin is 1.5% N1 (equals 5% thrust) below 20.000 ft.Above 20.000 ft this trim authority is expanded to 2.5% N1 (equals 10% thrust)
The thrust levers may be manually positioned without disengaging the A/T during all flightphases.However, except for thrust HOLD mode, the system shall reposition the thrust levers to the appropriatetarget thrust after hands off, except when one engine remains operating at the thrust limit.
The A/T system can be armed by the A/T ARM switch on the MCP.Mode engagement is either manual or automatic.Modes can be disengaged (A/T disconnect) by using either A/T disconnect switch on the outboard side ofpower levers 1 and 4, or by switching the arming switch on the MCP to OFF.
2.1 THRUST
The autothrottle operates in response to manual mode requests made on the MCP as well as automaticmode requests through the FMS when the autoflight VNAV mode is active.Reference thrust limits can be selected on the FMS THRUST LIM(it) page.Limit values are calculated for maximum thrust and assumed temperature derated thrust.Adjustments are made for:– N1 equalization via the EECs to prevent throttle stagger (Engine trim).– Approach idle when the anti-ice system is operating or CON Ignition is selected ON.
Thrust Reference
The Thrust Management Function calculates a Reference N1 based on existing pressure altitude andeither entered FMC assumed temperature or ambient temperature data from the air data computer, forthe following Thrust Rating Modes:TO -- take-offD-TO -- assumed temperature take-off (derated)CLB -- climbCLB 1 -- climb oneCLB 2 -- climb twoCRZ -- cruiseCON -- continuousGA -- go-around

These modes can be selected manually on the FMS Thrust Limit Page. The selected Thrust Referenceas well as the Thrust Rating Mode is displayed above the N1 indicators on EICAS.
Thrust Reference Mode Transition
When in VNAV, the Thrust Reference Mode will automatically transition for the respective phase of flight.When an engine failure is detected during take-off, before transition to CLB thrust at 1500 ft, CON thrustwill be automatically selected when flaps are selected UP and speed > VREF + 98.Obtaining CON thrust limit when an engine failure occurs after the 1500/climb thrust transition, requires amanual selection by means of the ENG OUT prompt.When VNAV is not active and an engine out is activated, CON thrust limit mode is selected through theFMS THRUST LIMIT page, by selecting FLCH mode or pushing the THR button.
Climb Thrust Schedule
CLB rating as well as CLB 1 and CLB 2 derates are automatically determined and selected depending onthe selected assumed temperature as follows:– Take-off thrust reduction up to 5% results in - CLB– Take-off thrust reduction of 5 - 15% results in - CLB 1, which is a fixed 10% reduction of CLB.– Take-off thrust reduction above 15% results in - CLB 2, which is a fixed 20% reduction of CLB.
CLB 1 and CLB 2 derates are gradually removed from 10.000 feet upwards to reach full CLB thrust at15.000 feet.In cruise, thrust reference defaults to CRZ.These schedules are airline policy and set as default values on the FMS PERFormance FACTORS page.
Thrust Lever Control
To prevent hunting thrust levers during periods of stable flight, the system consist of a low activity controlmode during stabilized cruise flight (long term) and a high activity control mode during transitions (shortterm).
In the low activity control mode the autothrottle sets N1 to the estimate for the flight condition, withadjustment to track the selected speed (or mach) target over the long term. It will tend to ignoreshort-term disturbances (turbulence).The conditions for the low activity mode are:– Altitude above 20.000 ft.– Vertical speed less than 100 fpm.– Operation is not within 5 knots of the applicable min. and max. speed limits as indicated on the PFD.– Autothrottle is operating in SPD.– Flaps are up.– Bank angle less than 4 degrees.
If these conditions are not met, regular speed control (more aggressive) will be provided to obtain therequired autothrottle response in order to maintain speed.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Yaw control is provided by the rudder control system.
Two independent yaw damper systems operate in flight continuously to improve airplane directionalstability and turn coordination. The upper and lower yaw damper actuators are powered by hydraulicsystems 3 and 2 respectively. Yaw damper inputs do not result in rudder pedal motion.
With the yaw damper switches ON, the systems are powered. If a yaw damper fault exists, hydraulicpower is removed automatically from the system, the EICAS advisory alert >YAW DAMPER UPR (LWR)is displayed and the respective yaw damper inoperative light illuminates. The alert is displayed and boththe lights illuminate during IRU alignment or if all three IRU’s are inoperative.The alert messages disappear and the lights extinguish when only one IRU has been aligned.If one yaw damper is inoperative, the remaining yaw damper is capable of providing the required controlinputs through its respective rudder, although yaw damper performance at low airspeeds in turbulencemay be reduced.
Pushing the yaw damper switch OFF removes hydraulic power from the system.The >YAW DAMPER UPR (LWR) alert is displayed and the INOP light illuminates.

1.4.1Page 1
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Pratt & Whitney PW901A Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) is a self-contained, twin spool turbine enginelocated in the unpressurized tailcone of the airplane. A fire wall isolates the APU from flight criticalstructures and control surfaces.
The unit has a self-contained oil system. The oil quantity indication is displayed on the EICAS statusdisplay.
Fuel is supplied to the APU from main tank 2.
A full authority electronic APU Controller (APUC) monitors APU starting, operation and shutdown. Itkeeps APU operation within limits and shuts down the APU automatically, when any operating limit isexceeded.
The APU drives two 90 KVA generators which are capable of supplying the entire electrical system of theairplane for normal ground operations.Electrical power supply is not available in flight.
On ground the APU provides air to the pneumatic system for operation of components which requirebleed air. The APU has adequate bleed air capacity to run all air conditioning packs except during enginestart. With no pneumatic load on the APU, pneumatic pressure is approx. 25 psi.During engine start the APU increases the pneumatic pressure to approx. 40 psi.In flight the APU can provide pneumatic pressure for one pack up to 15.000 ft.The APU may be operated in flight up to 20.000 ft.
Start
The Battery P/B must be ON for start and operation of the APU.An APU start requires both MAIN and APU batteries.During APU start, the 28 Volt APU battery supplies power to the starter, the air inlet door on the right sideof the fuselage, the DC fuel pump, the APU controller and the APU fire detection system.The APU battery charger is disconnected during APU starter engagement.The MAIN battery supplies power for the APU fire extinguisher, the APU fuel valve and standby power forthe APU controller.Rotating the APU selector momentarily from OFF to START initiates the automatic start sequence.The APU fuel valve and the APU inlet door open simultaneously. Either the APU DC fuel pump or, if ACpower is available, the main tank 2 aft fuel pump starts running. On later aircraft also main tank 3 aft fuelpump starts running. When the inlet door is sensed fully open, starter engages and following light-up theAPU accelerates to its operating speed.The APU cannot be started in flight.
Run
The EICAS memo message APU RUNNING is displayed whenever the APU selector is in the ON positionand the APU N1 exceeds 95%. The AVAIL lights in the APU generator P/Bs illuminate when both thefrequency and voltage are within limits.

1.4.1 GeneralAircraft Operations Manual 747-400
Page 21.4.1 15 MAY 1996
Issue 3
Shutdown
The automatic shutdown sequence is initiated by rotating the APU selector to OFF. If open, the APUbleed air isolation valve closes and the APU generators automatically shed their electrical load and theyare not available during the shutdown cycle. The APU bleed VALVE light illuminates while the valve is intransit and the APU generator AVAIL lights extinguish.The APU controller incorporates a time delay of 60 seconds to permit APU cooling before shutdown. Thiscooldown sequence protects the unit from thermal shock. If a limit is exceeded or a fire is detected, theAPU shuts down immediately without delay.When the cooling cycle is completed, the APU decelerates, the APU fuel valve closes and at 20% N2, theAPU air inlet door closes. When the door is closed, power is removed and shutdown is completed.
The Battery P/B should remain ON until APU cooldown cycle is completed.If the Battery P/B is positioned OFF prior to completion of the 60 seconds cooldown cycle, the APU shutsdown immediately in order to prevent APU operation without fire detection.
For a description of the APU panel in the RH Body Gear Wheel Well, refer to AOM 1.8.2.

1.5.2Page 1
1. VHF COMMUNICATION
Three VHF communication radios, designated L (left), R (right) and C (center) are installed and eachradio consists of a transceiver and an antenna. VHF L uses an antenna on top of the fuselage.Each VHF radio may be tuned by any of the three Radio Tuning Panels (RTPs). Selection of a VHF radiofor transmitting and monitoring is through the Audio Control Panel (ACP).A keyline interlock function prevents the keyline from blocking the selected frequency (sticking mike) bydisconnecting the keyline after 30 seconds of continuous transmission.A beeping sound will be heard to warn for pending disconnect, 25 sec. after the PTT switch is pressed.Releasing the PTT switch momentarily enables transmission again.
2. HF COMMUNICATION
Two HF communication radios, designated L (left) and R (right) are installed. Each HF radio may betuned by any of the three RTPs. Selection of a HF radio for transmitting and monitoring is through theACP.Simultaneous transmission is not possible because of the installation of only one antenna for bothsystems. This implies blockage of reception on one system while the other is transmitting.HF sensitivity is adjusted on the RTP. The left HF sensitivity is adjusted on the Captain’s RTP. The rightHF sensitivity is adjusted on the First Officer’s RTP.’AM’ can be selected for Amplitude Modulation. When AM is not selected the HF system operates inthe’USB’ mode.
3. RTP
The frequency selector knobs are used to select the desired frequency, which is displayed in the LiquidCrystal Display (LCD) STANDBY indicator.By depressing the frequency transfer P/B, the standby frequency becomes active and the activefrequency becomes the standby.The RTPs are designated Left, Center and Right and are located on the aisle stand.An Offside Tuning Light on each RTP indicates that a communication radio normally associated with thatRTP is being tuned by another RTP or this RTP is tuning a radio associated with another RTP.If a RTP fails, the RTP can be disconnected from the radios.
The left RTP is normally associated with VHF L and HF L. The right RTP is normally associated with VHFR and HF R.
The OFF button is pressed to disable a failed panel (e.g. when blocking the other Radio Tuning Panels).

4. CONTROLS AND INDICATORS
VHF and HF frequencies can be changed independently. The last selected frequency will stay ’active’,but any radio set can be monitored when either VHF or HF is selected. When an RTP is selected tooff-side, frequency will change to off-side selected. If all RTPs are selected to the same radio andfrequency is changed on either one, the other two will change simultaneously.

1. GENERAL
The Aircraft Communication Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS) provides a two-way digitalcommunication between the aircraft and ground data networks via a VHF or SATCOM channel. Thisfeature is referred to as Uplink and Downlink. Part of the downlink communication happens automaticallyand requires no crew action.Operating the system is through the center MCDU.
System Overview
The system consists of a management unit only.This unit interfaces with existing systems for control, communication and printing via the C-MCDU,VHF-C and the cockpit printer.Other inputs are derived from the captains clock and the FMS.At aircraft power up, VHF-C will default to an ACARS controlled frequency and the RTP-C will default toVHF-C. The ACTIVE window of RTP-C will read ’ACARS’.With ACARS displayed in the active window, the ACARS management unit is basically connected toVHF-C and will automatically tune VHF-C in a predeterminate sequence through four dedicated DATAfrequencies until data exchange from a groundstation has been established.Automatic data exchange through SATCOM will be established when communication through VHF-C islost.
Rotating the frequency selector on the RTP with ACARS displayed in the STANDBY window will replaceACARS for a frequency. ACARS can be retuned to the standby window by selecting a frequency higher orlower than the VHF communication frequency range.
Options
Various types of data can be exchanged such as:– CMC stored system faults– ACMS determined limit exceedances from various systems– Movement events– ETA and diversions– Weather information– ATC (Ocean clearances)– Freetext (Company messages)
2. DATA EXCHANGE
The reason for communication can be divided in:– Automatic:
S At predetermined moments such as:– Take-off– Landing– ETA Amsterdam minus 4 hours. (CMC stored system fault download).
S When certain sub-systems exceed their limit, which is detected by ACMS.E.g.: Hard Landing, Turbulence, Flap Overspeed and Engine parameters.
– Semi-automatic:S following an uplink request by maintenance for ’reading’ CMC fault history.
– Manual:S initiated by the crew to obtain a weather report.S initiated by the crew/ground to send a freetext message
NOTE: 1. All messages, both uplink and downlink and stored in memory for display and print, will becleared at flight completion.
2. Any downlink message will automatically contain doc. data like flight number, aircraftregistration and time. Data remains stored in a ground database.

3. ALERT MESSAGES
When the C-MCDU is not logged-on to ACARS, relevant scratchpad messages are suppressed.Therefore, certain system conditions which require crew attention will be displayed as an EICAS advisoryalert or memo message. For advisory alerts, refer to AOM 2.4.5.
Memo messages
– ’VHF DATA OFF’This message is displayed as long as VHF-C is not tuned to an ACARS controlled frequency; either’ACARS’ is not displayed in the ACTIVE window of the C-RTP or a voice frequency is selected via theACARS page ’VOICE SELECT’.This message has priority over all other ACARS related memo messages.
– ’ACARS MESSAGE’Will be displayed together with the scratchpad message ’MESSAGE RECEIVED’ when an uplink hasbeen received.Clearing the scratchpad message also clears the memo message.
– ’PRINTER MESSAGE’Will appear together with the scratchpad message ’MESSAGE PRINTING’ when a print uplink hasbeen sent which causes an instant print on the cockpit printer.The messages disappear automatically 5 minutes after the print cycle has been completed.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The electrical power system provides generation and distribution of AC and DC power.It is designed to be automatic in normal operation. Faults in any part of the system are automaticallydetected and isolated.The system can be divided in AC power supply, DC power supply, auxiliary power and standby power.Auxiliary power consists of external power and APU generated power.Switches in the AC system allow to establish normal operating conditions and to override some automaticfunctions, if required.The fully automatic DC system is normally powered by the AC system through transformer/rectifier units.Simplified system behaviour can be seen on the EICAS synoptic display.
2. AC POWER SUPPLY
2.1 IDG
Each engine drives an Integrated Driven Generator (IDG) which contains the generator and the constantspeed drive in one housing. The IDGs supply the primary AC power and are connected to four AC bussesthrough the Generator Control Breaker (GCB).With the Generator Control P/Bs pushed ON, and IDG power quality acceptable, system logicautomatically closes the GCBs.
2.2 BUS TIE SYSTEM
Each AC bus is connected to a synchronous bus through a Bus Tie Breaker (BTB). This allows paralleloperation through the synchronous bus. The IDGs can be paralleled in any combination.In case of a failure the IDG can be disconnected from its engine and the respective AC bus will bepowered from the synchronous bus through the BTB.If the power of an AC bus becomes unsynchronized, the respective BTB opens automatically, leaving thebus to be powered by its own generator.
The synchronous bus is divided into two independent parts by a Split System Breaker (SSB) to allow theaircraft to be powered by two separate auxiliary power sources for load distribution. The SSB will closeautomatically whenever either side of the synchronous bus becomes unpowered.Each selected power source will synchronize with the previous source (if any) for a period of time, toprovide for an uninterrupted power transfer.
2.3 AUXILIARY POWER
Two APU driven generators and/or two external power sources can be connected to the aircraft while onthe ground. The two external power receptacles are located on the RH side of the fuselage in the vicinityof the nose landing gear.The external power sources and the APU generators cannot be paralleled. Therefore, the SSB will openautomatically when an auxiliary power source is selected on each side of the synchronous bus.
However, when one APU generator is not available (AVAIL legend not illuminated) and the remainingAPU generator is powering the whole synchronous bus, the SSB will open upon selection of an externalpower source on the side of the failed APU generator. The APU generator initially powering thesynchronous bus will remain powering its side of the synchronous bus. Although, when an external powersource powers the entire aircraft, selecting the opposite APU GEN will result in the SSB to remain closedand the external power source to be disconnected.
Auxiliary power must be available on each side of the synchronous bus on a combi aircraft forgroundhandling purposes.

2.4 POWER SWITCHING AT ENGINE START
When an engine is started with an auxiliary power source selected on either side of the synchronous buswhile the respective Generator Control P/B is ON and the Bus Tie P/B is in AUTO, the IDG will beconnected to its side of the synchronous bus through the AC bus.The previous power source is disconnected automatically and the SSB will remain open.Starting an engine on the other side causes the IDG to power that side of the synchronous bus and theSSB to be closed automatically.When only one auxiliary power source is powering the synchronous bus the SSB will remain closed,allowing the IDG to power both sides of the synchronous bus, and the auxiliary power source will bedisconnected.
2.5 POWER SWITCHING AT ENGINE SHUTDOWN
Selecting either auxiliary power source will open the SSB and power its side of the synchronous bus.The relevant IDGs will be disconnected automatically.Selecting any auxiliary power source on the opposite side leaves the SSB open and disconnects theIDGs on that side as well.
2.6 TRANSFER BUSSES
Many of the Captain’s and F/O’s flight instruments receive AC power from their respective transfer bus.The Captain’s transfer bus (CAPT XFER BUS) is normally powered by AC bus 3 and the F/O’s transferbus (F/O XFER BUS) is normally powered by AC bus 2. AC bus 1 provides automatic back-up power forboth transfer busses.
2.7 STANDBY POWER
Several flight critical systems are powered by the main and APU standby busses (MAIN/APU STBY BUS)which will be powered when:– BATT P/B is ON.– STBY power selector in AUTO.Normal power for the MAIN STBY BUS is AC BUS 3, for the APU STBY BUS the CAPT XFER BUS.If AC power is totally lost, the standby busses are powered by their respective batteries and standbyinverters.The capacity of the batteries will guarantee the standby bus power for 30 minutes.
For equipment powered by the respective standby busses, refer to AC Bus Equipment List (2.13).

2.11 UTILITY AND GALLEY BUSSES
Each main AC bus powers a utility bus and a galley bus. Each utility and galley bus is controlled by aseparate Electrical Load Control Unit (ELCU) which protects the electrical system from utility and galleybus faults and provides load shedding functions in case of overload.
The Utility Busses power, amongst others:– Passengers Lighting– Passengers Video– Passengers Entertainment– Recirculation Fans– Several Fuel Pumps
2.12 LOAD SHEDDING
Electrical system overload protection is provided by a load management system which monitors thenumber of operating generators and their load.When an overload condition is sensed, the system reduces power demand on the operating generatorsby commanding individual ELCUs to shed their respective loads.Loads are shed one at the time until the overload condition is relieved. Galley busses are shed first,followed by utility busses.
During load shedding the EICAS advisory alert ELEC UTIL BUS L(R) and the Utility OFF lights in theUTILITY P/Bs on the overhead panel are inhibited.
However, the following EICAS alert messages may be displayed in the order shown and dependent onthe number of shedded busses:– FUEL PUMP 3 FWD– FUEL OVRD 2 FWD– FUEL OVRD 3 FWD– FUEL OVRD CTR L– FUEL PUMP 2 FWD
If the overload condition is relieved, the load management system automatically restores utility and galleybusses in the reverse order of shedding.

3. DC POWER SUPPLY
3.1 PRIMARY DC POWER
Primary power for the DC busses is obtained from the main AC busses through fourTransformer/Rectifier Units (TRUs).The four main DC busses are normally interconnected with a DC tie bus through DC Isolation Relays(DCIRs), when the BUS TIE P/Bs are in AUTO.This DC tie bus causes each DC bus to remain powered if the respective AC bus or TRU fails.DC isolation relay opens when BUS TIE P/B is in OFF or during autoland bus isolation.
3.2 SECONDARY DC POWER
The secondary DC power system is divided into a MAIN hot battery bus and a MAIN battery busrespectively an APU hot battery bus and an APU battery bus.The hot battery busses are normally powered from AC bus 1 through a dedicated battery charger foreach hot battery bus.The MAIN and APU battery busses are normally powered from DC bus 3.Secondary DC power is obtained from the MAIN and APU battery which are always connected to theirrespective hot battery bus.The MAIN and APU hot battery busses will automatically power their respective MAIN and APU batterybusses if a failure is detected in the DC bus 3 power source.
The following systems are powered by the respective hot battery busses:
MAIN HOT BATTERY BUS APU HOT BATTERY BUS
– Engine 1-2-3-4 fire extinguishers A and B– Engine 1-2-3-4 fuel shutoff valves– APU fire extinguisher– APU fuel shutoff valve– Lower and Maindeck cargo fire extinguishers– Fire Switch unlock– Evacuation Signal
– IRU Left, Center and Right– Left and Right Outflow valves– APU inlet door– APU primary control
4. AUTOLAND BUS ISOLATION
When the Autoflight Director System is engaged in the autoland mode, AC and DC busses 1, 2 and 3 areautomatically isolated from the synchronous bus.This provides an independent power source for each of the three autopilots.AC bus 4 continues to power the synchronous bus and will automatically power any other bus in theevent that its generator fails.During autoland bus isolation the AC Bus Isolation Lights do not illuminate, the EICAS advisory alertELEC BUS ISLN (...) is inhibited and the ELEC synoptic is not available.Any failure in the autoland bus isolation will cause the EICAS advisory alert ’NO LAND 3’.

2.7 STANDBY POWER
The Integrated Standby Flight Display is powered by a dedicated battery/ charger.The battery is capable of providing power for up to 150 min. after loss of power to the main battery bus.
2.9 MAINDECK CARGO HANDLING BUS
The Main Deck Cargo Handling bus is powered on the ground when external 2 or APU generator 2 isavailable. An interlock prevents either source from powering main electrical busses and the main deckcargo handling bus simultaneously.
When both External or APU power sources are available, selecting only the number one auxiliary powersource ON ensures the Main Deck Cargo Handling Bus remains powered by the number two auxiliarypower source.
Pushing the available Power Source 2 switch ON de--energizes the main deck cargo handling bus. Whenboth external power 2 and APU generator 2 are available, external power is used. Pushing ExternalPower 2 switch ON transfers Main Deck cargo handling loads to APU generator 2.
The Main Deck Cargo Handling Bus powers the entire maindeck cargo handling equipment, Nose Doorand the side cargo door.
2.10 GROUND SERVICE BUS
The Ground Service Bus is powered automatically:
On the ground, if;– AC Bus 1 is powered.– AC Bus 1 is not powered, the same source powering the ground handling bus can be connected by
means of a Ground Service P/B on the Ground Service Panel at door 11
In flight, if;– AC Bus 1 is powered.
The Ground Service Bus powers:– The main and APU battery chargers.– An APU fuel pump.– The Flight Deck floodlights.– The upperdeck lighting.– Miscellaneous service outlets and equipment.
2.11 UTILITY BUSSES
Galley busses are not installed on the 747--400 Freighter

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Oxygen is available from two independent systems:– Cockpit Crew Oxygen System.– Passenger Oxygen System.
The oxygen cylinders for both systems are located in the Lower Forward Cargo Compartment and areprovided with a blow-out plug for protection against excessive pressure.A green oxygen blow-out disc is located at the right forward fuselage to permit outside visual inspectionof the blow-out plug condition.
Oxygen system pressures are displayed on the EICAS Status page.
1.1 COCKPIT CREW OXYGEN SYSTEM
The Cockpit Crew Oxygen System uses diluter demand regulators with full face quick donning oxygen masksat each cockpit station.
Pure (100%) oxygen may be selected.In N(normal) the demanded oxygen is mixed with ambient air. The mixing ratio is dependent on cabinaltitude.The higher the cabin altitude, the more oxygen is supplied.
Selecting EMERGENCY will supply 100% oxygen under pressure at any cabin altitude.
1.2 PASSENGER OXYGEN SYSTEM
The Passenger Oxygen System provides oxygen masks at all crew rest areas (CCR/OCR), cabin crewstations, passenger seats (in Passenger Service Units (PSU) above the seats), galleys, and in all lavatories.
The system activates automatically, if the cabin altitude reaches 14.000 ft or more. It can also be activatedmanually from the cockpit at any cabin altitude.
Upon activation of the system, the flow control units produce a pressure surge, which releases the oxygenmask stowage doors and permits the masks to drop within reach of crew and passengers. Additionally, the’NO SMOKING’ and ’FASTEN SEAT BELT’ signs will illuminate, the ’RETURN TO CABIN’ signs in thelavatories are inhibited, video monitors in the cabin will switch off and the cabin lights will come on bright.
When oxygen is presented in the CCR bunk area, the occupying crew is alerted by an Oxygen Alert IndicatorLight next to each bunk. An aural warning will sound. Masks will be dropped in the aisle. In the CCR seatarea, masks will be dropped from overhead PSUs.
The oxygen flow to a mask begins when the mask is pulled down. The system provides a continuous flow ofpure oxygen. The flow is controlled as a function of cabin altitude. The user of the mask inhales pure oxygenuntil the reservoir bag on the mask is empty, then inhales ambient air during the remainder of the inhalationcycle.
System logic enables reset of passenger oxygen supply only if the cabin altitude is below 12.000 ft.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Each individual engine is provided with a Fire Protection System. The system is divided in a Fire DetectionSystem, an Overheat Detection System and a Fire Extinguishing System. Both detection systems workindependently of each other.
1.1 FIRE DETECTION SYSTEM
The Fire Detection System is composed of two loops (designated loop A and B). The loops are installedparallel to each other in the engine nacelle.
The detector loops are automatically tested during initial airplane power-up and can also be tested manuallyby maintenance.
The detector loops are continuously monitored by a Fire/Overheat Detection Unit:– In normal operation, both loops must detect a fire condition to activate the FIRE ENG (...) warning
alert (AND logic).– If a fault is detected in one of the two loops, the system automatically reconfigures for single loop
operation. The remaining operable loop is then able to provide the necessary signals.– If both fire loops detect a fault, the system is not capable of generating a fire warning alert and the
EICAS advisory alert >DET FIRE/OHT (...) will be displayed.
1.2 OVERHEAT DETECTION SYSTEM
The Overheat Detection System is composed of two loops (designated loop A and B). The loops areinstalled parallel to each other in the engine nacelle.
The detector loops are automatically tested during initial airplane power-up and can also be tested manuallyby maintenance.
The detector loops are continuously monitored by a Fire/Overheat Detection Unit:– In normal operation, both loops must detect an overheat condition to activate the OVHT ENG (...)
NAC caution alert (AND logic).– If a fault is detected in one of the two loops, the system automatically reconfigures for single loop
operation. The remaining operable loop is then able to provide the necessary signals.– If both overheat loops detect a fault, the system is not capable of generating an overheat caution alert
and the EICAS advisory alert >DET FIRE/OHT (...) will be displayed.
1.3 FIRE EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM
Two fire extinguisher bottles (designated A and B) are installed in each wing. They are located in the wingleading edge, just inboard of the inboard engine.
The bottles in the left wing provide extinguishing agent for engines 1 and 2. The bottles in the right wingsupply engines 3 and 4.
One or both bottles may be discharged into either engine on a wing.

Fire protection for the APU is provided by a Fire Detection System and a Fire Extinguishing System.
Controls and indicators are provided:– In the cockpit– On the APU Ground Control Panel in the RH Body Gear Wheel Well, to alert ground personnel.
1.1 FIRE DETECTION SYSTEM
The Fire Detection System is composed of two loops (designated loop A and B). The loops are installedparallel in the APU compartment.
The detector loops are automatically tested during initial airplane power-up and can also be testedmanually by maintenance.
The detector loops are continuously monitored by a Fire Detection Unit:– In normal operation, either loop detecting a fire condition will activate the FIRE APU warning alert
(OR logic).– If a fault is detected in one of the two loops, the system automatically isolates the faulty loop.
The OR logic implicates that the remaining loop is able to provide the necessary signals.– If both fire loops detect a fault, the system is not capable of generating an APU fire warning alert and
the EICAS advisory alert >DET FIRE APU will be displayed.
When a fire is detected, the APU will shutdown automatically.
1.2 FIRE EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM
One fire extinguisher bottle is installed just in front of the APU firewall. It discharges into the APUcompartment.
If an APU fire is detected on the ground, the fire extinguisher bottle will automatically discharge 10seconds after automatic shutdown.

Fire protection for the Forward, the Aft and (on combi aircraft) the Main Deck Cargo Compartments isprovided by a Smoke Detection System and a Fire Extinguishing System.
1.1 SMOKE DETECTION SYSTEM
The Smoke Detection System is a draw-through air sampling system. Bleed air from the pneumaticsystem is used to create a vacuum, which pulls the sample air through Smoke Detector Modules.Multiple sample air pick-up points are provided in each cargo compartment. The EICAS advisory alert>CARGO DET AIR is displayed if there is insufficient air flow for smoke detection.
Each Smoke Detector Module has two photo-cell detector loops (designated loop A and B).
The Smoke Detector Modules are automatically tested during initial airplane power-up and can also betested manually by maintenance. Only if during a test a fault is detected in one of the loops, the affectedmodule automatically reconfigures for single loop operation. The loops are not monitored for faults afterthe test.Consequently if a loop fails after a test is completed the module cannot provide a smoke signal. After thenext test the module is reconfigured.
During normal operation, both loops of any module must sense smoke to activate a cargo fire warningalert (AND logic). If operating in single loop configuration, the remaining operable loop of that module iscapable of providing the necessary signals.
Forward and Aft Cargo Compartment
Both the Forward and Aft Cargo Compartment are provided with two Smoke Detector Modules.
Main Deck Cargo Compartment (Combi aircraft only)
The Main Deck Cargo Compartment is divided into two zones: MID and AFT. Each zone is provided withtwo Smoke Detector Modules.
Four Cargo Smoke Warning Modules are installed:Two are installed in the passenger cabin, located in the lowered ceiling at the first luggage bin near Door12 and above the LH Cargo Partition Door. Both provide a red light and an intermittent tone wheneversmoke is detected in the Main Deck Cargo Compartment.Two are installed in the Main Deck Cargo Compartment. Both provide an intermittent tone and oneprovides a red light at the loadmaster station when smoke is detected in the Main Deck CargoCompartment.
1.2 FIRE EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM
Forward and Aft Cargo Compartment
Four fire extinguisher bottles (designated A, B, C and D) are installed in the Forward CargoCompartment. They provide extinguishing agent for either the Forward or Aft Cargo Compartment.Effective concentration is provided for 195 minutes.
Main Deck Cargo Compartment (Combi aircraft only)
Ten additional fire extinguisher bottles (designated E, F, G, H, J, K, L, M, N and P) are installed in the AftCargo Compartment. Together with the bottles A, B, C and D, they provide extinguishing agent for theMain Deck Cargo Compartment. Effective concentration is provided for 90 minutes.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Control of the aircraft is achieved by:
The primary flight controls:
S Inboard and outboard ailerons.S Flight spoilers.S Inboard and outboard elevators.S Upper and lower rudder.
The secondary flight controls:
S Horizontal stabilizer.S Leading edge flaps.S Inboard and outboard trailing edge flaps.S Speedbrakes.S Ground spoilers.
All flight controls (except the leading edge flaps) are actuated by independent hydraulic systems.S The ailerons, elevators and rudders use hydraulic systems 1, 2, 3 and 4.S The spoiler system uses hydraulic systems 2, 3 and 4.S The horizontal stabilizer uses hydraulic systems 2 and 3.S The trailing edge flaps use hydraulic systems 1 and 4.
There is no manual backup for ailerons, elevators and rudders. Load feel is artificial.
The mechanical control linkages of ailerons, elevators and rudders incorporate shear-outs. If a flightcontrol jam occurs, control may be partially regained after a significant force is applied to the controls.
No trim tabs are installed on the control surfaces. Aileron and rudder trim is accomplished by electrical trimactuators, which shift the neutral position of the associated feel mechanisms.Pitch trim is accomplished by repositioning of the horizontal stabilizer.
The leading edge flaps are pneumatically actuated.As a backup, trailing edge and leading edge flaps can be operated electrically.
Flight control surface positions are displayed on the EICAS SEC ENG page. A full scale indicationcorresponds to the maximum surface deflection.
The autopilots send electrical commands to their associated hydraulic actuators. Actuator output isintroduced into the mechanical linkage of the primary flight controls. Autopilot actuator output can beoverridden with some force by the cockpit crew.
Eight guarded Flight Control Shutoff Switches, located on the overhead maintenance panel, control hydraulicpressure to:S the elevators and rudders (tail switches).S the ailerons and spoilers (wing switches).In the NORM position (guarded), hydraulic pressure is available for the respective flight controls.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The roll control surfaces on each wing are:– Two ailerons, one inboard and one outboard, each powered by two hydraulic actuators.– Five flight spoilers, each powered by one hydraulic actuator.
Control wheel inputs are mechanically transmitted via a trim and feel mechanism to:– the actuators of the inboard ailerons directly.– the actuators of the outboard ailerons via an electrically operated aileron lockout system.– the spoiler mixers.
The aileron lockout system unlocks the outboard ailerons when the leading edge flaps are extended or theairspeed is below 232 kt IAS/M.51. The outboard ailerons are locked again, when the leading edge flaps areretracted and the airspeed is above 238 kt IAS/M.53.
The spoiler mixers mechanically transmit control wheel inputs and speedbrake lever signals to the flightspoiler actuators. Control wheel movement in excess of approximately 8 degrees from neutral, or 1 unit oftrim, activates flight spoilers. The spoiler actuators are designed to allow spoiler blow down with increasingspeed and prevent spoiler float when no hydraulic pressure is available.
In case of a jammed cable system on one side, an override mechanism enables normal operation of theailerons of the opposite side and operation of half of the flight spoilers. This may require application of asignificant force to the unaffected control wheel.
Two Aileron Trim Switches are located on the pedestal. When both switches are pushed in the desireddirection, electrical trim actuators reposition the neutral point of the trim and feel mechanism.With hydraulic pressure available, the control wheels will respond accordingly.If hydraulic pressure is not available, the neutral point will still be repositioned, however the controlwheels will not move. When hydraulic pressure is restored, this will result in a control wheel deflection.An Aileron Trim Indicator is located on both control columns.
Position transmitters are installed on all four ailerons and spoilers panels 4 and 12.
Autopilot actuators drive the complete roll control linkage.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The pitch control surfaces on the aircraft are:S Four elevators, two inboard and two outboard. Each inboard elevator is powered by a dual hydraulic
actuator. Each outboard elevator is powered by one hydraulic actuator.S One adjustable horizontal stabilizer, powered by two hydraulic actuators.
Elevators
Control column inputs are transmitted by mechanical linkage through a feel mechanism to a dual hydraulicactuator at each inboard elevator. Each dual actuator uses two hydraulic systems.Each inboard elevator is mechanically linked to the actuator of its adjacent outboard elevator, resulting insimultaneous movement of all surfaces. Shear-outs rivets are only installed between the inboard andoutboard elevator, which allow regaining control after a jammed outboard elevator.
Artificial feel is provided by the elevator feel mechanism. A dual computer modulates hydraulic pressureinputs from hydraulic systems 2 and 3 to modify existing spring forces in the feel mechanism proportional toairspeed and stabilizer position. Failure of one hydraulic system does not affect feel forces. If both hydraulicsystems fail, feel force degrades to basic spring force reaction.
Position transmitters are installed on the left and right outboard elevator.
Autopilot actuators drive the complete elevator control linkage.
Horizontal Stabilizer
Control Wheel Stabilizer Trim Switch inputs are processed by two Stabilizer trim/Rudder ratio Modules(SRMs). The SRMs provide protection against unscheduled stabilizer trim and determine rate of trim,dependent on airspeed.
Output of each SRM controls solenoid valves in its associated Stabilizer Trim Control Module (STCM).Hydraulic pressure to the STCMs is controlled by two guarded Stab Trim Cutout Switches located on thepedestal. Each STCM routes hydraulic pressure to a trim actuator. Outputs of the two trim actuators aremechanically summed to drive the stabilizer.
The trim rate determined by the SRMs, is high when the airspeed drops below 220 kt IAS and low when theairspeed exceeds 230 kt IAS. If only one STCM is operating (single channel trim), trim rate is half of the trimrate with both STCMs operating (dual channel trim).
Alternate Stabilizer Trim Switches, located on the pedestal, bypass the SRMs and directly control bothSTCMs. They also provide an increased range of stabilizer travel.
Movement of the control columns opposite to a trim command will stop stabilizer trim. This control columncutoff function does not affect alternate stabilizer trim inputs.
Left and right autopilot commands are introduced into the left and right SRMs respectively. Center autopilotcommands are normally introduced into the left SRM, but when this one fails, into the right SRM.Single and triple autopilot engagement results in single channel trim.Dual autopilot engagement results in dual channel trim to insert a trim bias in order to assure a pitch upmovement when one or both channel(s) disconnect below 500 ft.
Stabilizer position is shown on electrically operated Stabilizer Trim Indicators located on either side of thepedestal. An green band indicator displays three bands to indicate allowable stabilizer position range fortake-off.The individual bands (aircraft-nose-down / mid / aircraft-nose-up) are automatically selected when the pilotinserts aircraft center of gravity, weight and take-off thrust deration data into the FMC. To crosscheck that thecorrect stab green band has been selected, the selection is then compared with inputs from a nose gearpressure switch.
If the stabilizer is trimmed outside the displayed green band, the Take-off Configuration Warning will beactivated when thrust on engine 2 or 3 is increased to the take-off range.

1.9.4Page 1
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The vertical stabilizer is provided with an upper and lower rudder, powered by respectively three and twohydraulic actuators. One actuator can adequately control its related rudder. The actuators are mechanicallycontrolled by dual interconnected and adjustable rudder pedals.
Artificial feel is provided by a single feel and trim mechanism.
Airspeed information from the Air Data Computers is provided to the Stabilizer trim/Rudder ratio Modules(SRMs). The Rudder Ratio Changer (RRC) control circuits in the SRMs command the RRC actuators to varythe input from the rudder pedals to the hydraulic rudder actuators. So, as airspeed increases, rudderdeflection is gradually reduced, while rudder pedal travel is not limited. This way the aerodynamic effect of acertain rudder pedal input is always the same, irrespective of airspeed, and the vertical stabilizer is protectedagainst stresses which can result from large rudder deflections at high airspeed.
If an RRC fails, the response of the respective rudder to pedal inputs remains the same as it was when thefailure occurred, regardless of changes in airspeed. For the affected rudder, full deflection may not beavailable at low airspeeds or excessive deflection could result from pedal inputs at high airspeeds. Theoperable RRC still fully controls its associated rudder.
Position transmitters for EICAS surface position indicator are installed on the upper and lower rudder.
A Rudder Trim Selector on the pedestal electrically changes the neutral position of the feel and trimmechanism. Rudder trim is indicated on the Rudder Trim Indicator. A Rudder Trim Center P/B returns, ifactivated, the rudder trim to zero. Maximum trim is 80% of available rudder travel.
Each rudder is provided with an independent yaw damper system.(For system description, refer to AOM 1.3.4)

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Each wing is provided with Leading Edge (LE) flaps and Trailing Edge (TE) flaps.S The LE flaps consist of three groups on each wing. The outboard section is designated group 1, the
midspan section is group 2 and the inboard section is group 3.Groups 1 and 2 are formed by eleven sets of variable camber flaps on each wing.Group 3 is formed by three sets of Krueger flaps on each wing.
S The TE flaps consist of two groups on each wing. Both the inboard and outboard sections are tripleslotted Fowler flaps.
Flap lever position is transmitted to three identical Flap Control Units (FCUs), which sequence and monitorflap operation. They provide asymmetry protection, control the flap load relief function and provide flapposition information to EICAS and other systems. Normally the FCUs operate in the Primary control mode,but will automatically revert to Secondary control mode when a failure occurs. Secondary mode operation ismuch slower than Primary mode operation.
Flap and flap lever position are indicated on the primary EICAS display.10 Seconds after all flaps are fully retracted, the entire indication is removed from view,
Primary and Secondary LE flap operation
In the Primary control mode:S the LE flaps are driven pneumatically from the bleedair duct.S the LE flap groups 2 and 3 retract, if reverse thrust levers 2 & 3 or 1 & 4 are pulled to the interlock
position.
If any LE flap group fails to move to the commanded position, the FCUs automatically switch after 35seconds to the Secondary mode for the respective LE flap group and its opposite group, driving the flapsthrough electric motors. If a failure occurs in LE flap group 2 or 3, both groups 2 and 3 and their oppositegroups switch to the Secondary mode.However, due to the rapid rate of Primary mode flap movement, the non-affected side will already be fullyextended or retracted, before switching to Secondary mode. This configuration will require only a slightcontrol wheel action.The LE flap groups remain in the Secondary mode, until the flaps reach the commanded position.
Primary and Secondary TE flap operation
In the Primary control mode the inboard TE flaps are operated by hydraulic system 1 and the outboardTE flaps by hydraulic system 4.
If any inboard or outboard TE flap fails to move to the commanded position, the FCUs automatically switch tothe Secondary mode for the respective TE flap and its opposite group, driving the flaps through electricmotors.If the inboard or outboard TE flaps are driven in the Secondary mode due to a lack of hydraulic systempressure, the FCUs automatically switch back to Primary mode operation when hydraulic pressure isrestored.However, if the respective TE flaps are driven in the Secondary mode with hydraulic pressure available, theFCUs will switch back to Primary mode operation, after the applicable TE flap group is fully retracted.
If a TE flap asymmetry is detected, operation of the asymmetric flap group is immediately shut down,whether in Primary or Secondary mode.
The flap load relief function of the FCUs protects the TE flaps from excessive structural loads.If flap airspeed limits are exceeded with the flap lever in the 25 or 30 position, the flaps automatically retractto the 20 or 25 position. They extend back to the selected position when the airspeed is sufficiently reduced.Flap load relief is only available in the Primary control mode.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Each wing is equipped with 6 spoiler panels, each powered by one hydraulic actuator.– The 5 outboard panels function as flight spoilers and assist the ailerons to provide roll control.
(Refer to Roll Control, AOM 1.9.2.)– The 4 inboard panels function as speedbrakes.– All 6 spoilers panels function as ground spoilers.– The spoiler panels are numbered 1 thru 6 (left wing) and 7 thru 12 (right wing).
Speedbrake lever and control wheel roll inputs are combined by the spoiler mixers to extend or retract spoilerpanels, when speedbrakes or ground spoilers are in use.
In flight, a solenoid actuated lock limits speedbrake lever input to the FLIGHT DETENT position. This limitsspoiler deflection to a mid-travel position. During speedbrake lever movement towards FLIGHT DETENTspoiler panels 3, 4, 9 and 10 gradually extend to full travel position (45⎪). Panels 5 and 8 gradually extend tomaximum of 20⎪. Just forward of the FLIGHT DETENT position, panels 6 and 7 extend from zero to 20⎪ .The lock is de-activated on the ground, allowing the speedbrake lever to be moved fully aft to the UPposition, extending all spoiler panels to their full travel positions.
Position transmitters are installed on spoiler panels 4 and 12.Panel 4 functions as a flight spoiler, speedbrake and ground spoiler. Panel 12 functions only as a flightspoiler and ground spoiler. Therefore, speedbrake extension is not indicated on the right wing spoiler positionindication on EICAS.

1. FUEL STORAGE
In the non-convertible all pax configuration the fuel is stored in three tanks in the left wing, in three tanksin the right wing and in a center wing tank (CWT). In the convertible configuration (combi to pax and viceversa), an extra horizontal stabilizer tank (HST) is installed.
In the tip of each wing and in the right hand horizontal stabilizer tip, a vent surge tank is installed. It isconnected to the atmosphere and to the tanks by vent pipes. During flight positive air pressure on the fuelis supplied through an airscoop, located underneath each surge tank. On ground it prevents tankoverpressure during refueling. In case of high thermal expansion or a refuel/defuel valve failure, thesetanks serve as expansion chambers. Each wing tank is connected to the vent tank in its own wing. Thecenter wing tank vents into the left or right wing vent tank.

2. FUEL MANAGEMENT
Introduction
Fuel management system cards (FMSCs) automatically control crossfeed valves, fuel transfer valves andfuel pumps according to normal fuel management logic.
Pumps
Each main tank contains two AC motor driven main (MAIN) fuel boost pumps. A single MAIN pump has theflow capacity to provide adequate fuel to one engine at take-off thrust conditions or two engines at cruiseconditions.Main tanks 2 and 3 also contain two AC motor driven override/jettison (OVRD) pumps. They will override thetwo MAIN pumps in the main tanks, due to higher output pressure. Each OVRD pump is capable of supplyingfuel to two engines during take-off and cruise conditions and operates to a standpipe level of approx. 3200 kgremaining fuel in the associated main tank.
The CWT contains two AC motor driven override/jettison (CTR) pumps. Each pump is capable of supplyingfuel to two engines during take-off and cruise conditions. A single CTR pump does not provide enoughpressure to override the main tanks 2 and 3 OVRD pumps or the MAIN tank pumps in main tanks 1 and 4.
The horizontal stabilizer tank contains two AC motor driven transfer/jettison pumps. Each pump has theability to transfer all HST fuel to the CWT.
Both CWT and HST fuel pump operation are subject to minimum fuel quantity restrictions. These restrictionsprevent a possible dry-running of the fuel pumps. EICAS alerts provide indication for the switching of theCWT and HST fuel pumps. These alerts are generated using fuel tank quantity and aircraft pitch angle. Pitchangles of² 5� are considered to be climb attitudes, while pitch angles < 5� are considered to be cruiseattitudes. During climb, minimum fuel quantities for fuel pump operations for both tanks are higher thanthose during cruise. This is caused by the fuel moving to the aft parts of a tank when the pitch increases,thereby increasing the chance of a dry running pump.
MAIN 2 AFT fuel pump supplies the APU. With the APU running, the PRESS light of this pump will beextinguished when the airplane is on AC power, even with the pump P/B in the OFF position.On airplanes with a hydromechanical scavenge system in the CWT, MAIN 3 AFT fuel pump also operateswhen the APU is running to prevent tank to tank transfer.
Fuel Transfer Logic
After engine start with the TE flaps still in the up position, all crossfeed (X FEED) valves are open andprovided the CTR pump P/Bs were selected on, the engines are fed from the CWT.If the CWT was left empty or the CTR pump P/Bs were not selected on, the OVRD pumps in main tank 2provide fuel to the engines 1 and 2 and the OVRD pumps in main tank 3 provide fuel to the engines 3 and4.
The X--FEED valves 2 and 3 will close automatically 40 sec. after the TE flaps have reached the take--offposition. Engines 2 and 3 are fed from respectively main tanks 2 and 3, while engines 1 and 4 are fedeither from the CWT, from main tanks 2 and 3 when the CWT is empty or with CTR pump P/Bs notselected on, or from main tanks 1 and 4 when in tank to engine configuration.
After take--off, X FEED valves 2 and 3 are opened automatically when the TE flaps have reached the 5position. If the CWT contains fuel and with CTR pump P/Bs selected on, all engines are fed from theCWT.
When fuel quantity in the CWT reaches aproximately 3200 kg with pitch² 5� (climb) or 1300 kg withpitch < 5� (cruise), the EICAS alert >FUEL LOW CTR L (R) will be activated, indicating that both CTRpump P/Bs must be switched off.Switching off the CTR pump P/Bs will activate the main 2 and 3 override/jettison pumps.

1.10.1Page 3
If the CTR pump P/Bs were selected off during climb, the EICAS alert >FUEL OVRD CTR L (R) will beactivated during cruise, indicating that the CTR pump P/Bs must be selected on again.
When during cruise the EICAS alert >FUEL PMP STAB L (R) is activated, the applicable STAB pumpP/Bs must be switched on. When the CWT fuel quantity reaches aproximately 36.500 kg, the transfervalves in the CWT and HST are opened and the STAB pumps are activated and fuel is transferred fromthe HST to the CWT. When the EICAS alert >FUEL LO STAB L (R) is activated, the applicable STABpump must be switched off and the transfer valve closes automatically.
When fuel quantity in the CWT decreases below aproximately 2300 kg, it is possible that, in addition tothe feeding from the CWT, fuel is used from main tanks 1 and 4. This amount can be about 900 kg pertank.
The CWT has an automatic scavenge system installed to transfer residual fuel from the CWT to maintank 2 or to main tank 2 and 3 depending on aircraft registration.On earlier aircraft the system consist of an electrical scavenge pump, wich is activated when fuel transferfrom the reserve tanks to main tanks 2 and 3 is initiated. The activation terminates after 120 minutes orno flow for 5 minutes, whichever occurs first. An arrow will appear on the fuel synoptic when thescavenge pump is operating.On later aircraft a hydromechanical system scavenges the fuel from the CWT to main tank 2 and 3 bymeans of four jet pumps. The scavenge operation is controlled by float valves. Scavenge will start whenmain tank 2 or 3 quantity decreases to aproximately 27.200 kg.With this system installed there is no arrow displayed on the fuel synoptic when fuel scavenge takesplace.
When the fuel quantity in main tanks 2 and 3 becomes less than approximately 18.150 kg, the reservetank transfer valves are automatically opened and reserve tanks 2 and 3 are emptied by gravity into maintanks 2 and 3.
When the fuel quantity in main tank 2 or 3 is equal to or less than the fuel quantity in main tanks 1 or 4,the EICAS alert >FUEL TANK/ENG will be displayed. The OVRD pumps in main tanks 2 and 3 have to beswitched off manaully and X FEED valves 1 and 4 have to be closed.Each engine is than fed from its associated tank.
When before departure the fuel quantity in main tank 2 or 3 is less than or equal (+500 kg) to the fuelquantity in main tanks 1 or 4, X FEED valves have to be closed and all MAIN pumps have to be switchedon. Each engine will be supplied from its associated main tank for the whole flight (tank to engineconfiguration). The interface between the TE flaps and crossfeed valves 2 and 3 will remain active.
Acceleration Effects on Fuel Distribution
With low fuel loads in the main tanks a temporary display of the FUEL PUMP FWD alert(s) may occurduring take--off, climb or go--around.
The alert(s) will no longer display after the airplane is level and no longer accelerating.

3. FUEL TRANSFER
A common fuel manifold connects all main tanks and the center wing tank. There are four crossfeed(X FEED) valves installed in the fuel manifold.
Each reserve tank contains two transfer valves. These valves are automatically controlled to transfer fuelto the inboard tanks. The fuel is transferred by gravity.
Main tanks 1 and 4 each contain one transfer valve which allows fuel transfer from the outboard to theinboard main tanks. The fuel is transferred by gravity.When during fuel jettison either main tank 2 or 3 fuel quantity decreases below 9070 kgs, both main tanks1 and 4 transfer valves open automatically.If transfer of fuel from outboard main tanks to inboard main tanks is required, the valves may be openedmanually using the fuel transfer main 1 & 4 P/B on the overhead panel.In both cases minimum transfer level for main tanks 1 and 4 each is approx. 3200 kg.

4. FUEL JETTISON
When required the fuel jettison system dumps fuel overboard. The fuel jettison system automaticallyjettisons fuel down to a preselected level. The jettison control system controls fuel balancing betweenmain tank 2 and 3 during jettisoning. If fuel balancing is necessary between main tanks 2 and 3, theOVRD pumps in the low tank deactivate automatically until the tanks are balanced. When the system isactivated, by selections on the fuel jettison panel, the override/jettison pumps in main tank 2 and 3 andthe CWT (OVRD and CTR pumps) and the transfer/jettison pumps in the HST (STAB pumps) start tooperate, provided they are armed for operation (P/Bs ON). The (required) jettison valves, jettison/transfervalves and the respective wingtip jettison nozzle valves are opened and EICAS will show thepreselected fuel to remain. On the fuel synoptic display the jettison time will be shown. This jettison timewill vary as it is related to the actual dump rate. Average dump rate is approximately 2000 kg/min.When dumping to minimum fuel remaining, HST, CWT, RES 2 and 3 will be empty.Main tank 1 and 4 minimum transfer level is approximately 3200 kg each.Main tank 2 and 3 minimum OVRD pump level is approximately 3200 kg each.Total minimum remaining is approximately 12.800 kg.During dumping, fuel supply to the engines is provided by the MAIN pumps only.Fuel jettison is terminated automatically, when total fuel quantity decreases to the fuel to remain quantity.The fuel to remain quantity indication flashes for 5 sec. and changes color from magenta to white. Thejettison control system deactivates all operating OVRD, CTR and STAB pumps.The respective pump EICAS advisory messages are displayed until the Fuel Jettison Selector is OFF.

5. FUELING
The pressure fueling system provides a rapid means of filling the fuel tanks. The system distributes fueleither automatically according a predetermined schedule or manually by valve selection on the refuelpanel. The normal method of refueling and defueling is at two couplings under each wing and controlledfrom the fueling panel located at the lefthand wing.Overwing gravity refueling is possible for the individual main tanks. The fuel quantity indicating systemprovides automatic overfill protection.For fueling procedure, refer to AOM 7.4.3.

1.11.1Page 1
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The airplane is equipped with four independent hydraulic systems which power the primary flightcontrols, autopilot servos, spoilers, stabilizer trim, elevator feel, landing gear, flaps, brakes andnose & body gear steering.
Each system is powered by an engine driven pump and a demand pump installed in parallel. Thesystems operate at 3000 psi and are numbered by the engine which normally power it.
The pumps, reservoirs and associated components are located at the engine and engine pylon areas.
Each system is supplied by its own hydraulic reservoir and has an engine driven pump (EDP) as theprimary source of power, and a demand pump which supplements the EDP during high demandconditions.The demand pump is also capable of supplying normal system demands if an engine or EDP fails.
The hydraulic reservoirs are pressurized by the pneumatic system to prevent pump cavitation and toensure positive hydraulic fluid supply to the pump during high demand conditions.
A hydraulic fluid shutoff valve is installed in the fluid supply line to each EDP.If an Engine Fire handle is pulled, the respective hydraulic fluid shutoff valve closes.
Systems 1 and 4 have air driven demand pumps. Pneumatic power for the air driven pumps is providedfrom the bleed air manifold fed by all four engines, APU, or ground source.Systems 2 and 3 have electric motor driven demand pumps.All four hydraulic systems can be pressurized without the engines running.
In addition to an EDP and a demand pump, systems 1 and 4 have an auxiliary electric pump which can beused for ground handling operations like operation of the body gear steering system and the brakesystem.The auxiliary pumps are powered by the ground handling bus, and will consequently not operate withoutAPU GEN 1 or EXT PWR 1 electrical power.When the EDP pressurizes the system, the auxiliary pump stops running, but the Demand Pump Selectordoes not trip from AUX to the OFF position.
The EDPs are pressurized by pushing the Engine Pump P/B ON. The EDP is depressurized when eitherthe Engine Pump P/B is OFF or the Engine Fire handle is pulled. The Demand Pump Selectors havethree positions. In the ON position, the respective pump operates continuously and in the OFF positionthe pump is inoperative. In AUTO, the demand pumps operate if the respective EDP output pressure islow or the respective Fuel Control Switch is selected in CUTOFF. Additionally, the demand pumps forsystems 1 and 4 operate when TE flaps are out of the UP position during flight or when TE flaps are intransit during ground operation.
Hydraulic system quantity, temperature and pressure information is displayed on the EICAS statusdisplay and hydraulic synoptic display.
A single Hydraulic Quantity Interface Module (HYQUIM) processes quantity inputs from each reservoirtransmitter. A failure of the HYQUIM may result in erroneous hydraulic quantity indications for all fourhydraulic systems.
Hydraulic quantity levels will fluctuate as devices that use hydraulic power are activated, and will alsofluctuate with variations in temperature.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Two ice detectors are installed on the left and right forward fuselage. Each ice detector contains acylindrical sensing element mounted on a strut attached to the fuselage. The sensing element is axiallyvibrated at its natural frequency by a property known as ’magnetostriction’ which allows the sensingelement to produce a very low amplitude vibration. As the probe accretes ice, the frequency of vibrationdecreases due to increased mass which is used to create a signal. This signal is the primary means todetect the presence of ice in flight. When ice is detected, the sensing elements are electrically heated tomelt off the accreted ice. When its natural frequency is restored, a new cycle is started. For the activationof the Nacelle Anti-Ice (NAI) and/or the Wing Anti-Ice (WAI) valves a specific logic within a prescribedtime has to be exceeded, and the nacelle and wing anti-ice switches on the overhead panel must be inthe AUTO position. Once icing conditions are no longer detected by the sensors for more than 180seconds, the NAI and WAI valves will be closed automatically.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The engine nose cowls are anti-iced by means of engine bleed air. Whenever bleed air is required for thispurpose, FADEC will automatically adjust minimum N2 to approach idle to ensure sufficient pressure.This bleed air is dissipated in the nose cowl leading edge through a spray duct. The heated air circulatesinside the cowl and is discharged overboard through a vent in the cowl.Primary control of the Nacelle Anti-Ice (NAI) valves is by signals received from either ice detector.Activation requires two ice detection cycles, or one if ice detector heat is on for more than 15 seconds.The system is armed when airborne with the control switches in the AUTO position. The ON position ofthe switches overrides the AUTO position. After landing, with the system manually or automaticallyenergized, the engines will re-schedule to minimum N2 idle RPM limit 5 seconds after touchdown and theNacelle Anti-Ice valves will automatically close at engine shutdown.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The wing leading edges (outboard of engines 2 and 3) are anti-iced by means of engine bleed air takenfrom the pneumatic manifold. The bleed air is dissipated in the wing leading edges through a spray duct.Primary control of the control valves (one per wing) is by signals received from the ice detectors.Activation requires ten ice detector cycles. The system is armed when airborne and leading edge flapsretracted with the control switches in the AUTO position. The ON position of the switches is active whenairborne, irrespective of leading edge flaps position. Wing anti-ice is ineffective when leading edge flapsare extended. On the ground the wing anti-ice system is deactivated.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Air Data SourcesThe airplane is equipped with 5 independent air data systems consisting of:– Captain/First Officer pitot– Captain/First Officer static– Auxiliary pitot 1/2– Auxiliary static 1/2– Alternate static.
Air Data Source SelectTwo Air Data Computers (L/R-ADC) receive inputs from the Captain’s and First Officer’s pitot and staticsystems respectively.The Center ADC (C-ADC) is a hot standby, with inputs from the AUX 2 pitot and AUX 1 static system.If the Captain selects the C-ADC, it remains referenced to the AUX 2 pitot and AUX 1 static system. If theFirst Officer selects the C-ADC, the C-ADC references to the First Officer’s pitot and AUX 2 static system.Once the Captain’s side is selected to the C-ADC, selecting the First Officer’s source selector to theC-ADC has no effect on the pitot/static system source but only on the data retrieval.
Sub SystemsEach ADC processes additional inputs from:– Total Air Temperature (TAT) probe– Angle of Attack Sensor (AOAS)– Baro correction from the EFIS control panel with the MCDU as a backup, in case of an EFIS control
panel failure.
OutputsProcessed signals supplied to the related flight instruments are:– MACH– SAT– IAS– AOA– ALT– ALT RATE– TAT– OVERSPEED
Standby InstrumentsThe standby instruments (airspeed and altimeter) are directly connected to the AUX 1 Pitot and Alt static.
Static Air TemperatureStatic Air Temperature (SAT) is displayed on the MCDU PROG page 2/2.
Total Air TemperatureTotal Air Temperature (TAT) is displayed on EICAS. TAT indication on the ground approximates OAT.

1.13.2Page 1
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Integrated Display System (IDS) consists of three (3) identical EFIS/EICAS Interface Units (EIUs),which receive airplane systems information. The EIUs then create the following displays on six (6) CRTs.PFD – Primary Flight DisplayND – Navigation DisplayEICAS – Engine Indicating Crew Alerting System
Cathode Ray Tubes (CRT)
The CRTs are referred to as the outboard CRTs, inboard CRTs, upper CRT and lower CRT. The outboardand inboard CRTs are located on the Captain’s and First Officer’s panel. These CRTs normally displaythe flight and navigation information (PFD and ND). The upper and lower CRTs are on the center paneland normally display EICAS information. If a CRT fails, either automatic and manual switching allows thedisplays to be transferred to an operable CRT. If a CRT color fails, the display changes color but allindications remain distinguishable and none of the information is lost.
Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS)
The Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS) consists of the Primary Flight Display (PFD) and theNavigation Display (ND).
Primary Flight Display (PFD)
The PFD presents a dynamic color display of all the parameters necessary for flight path control. Sourceselectors determine the source of information to the PFD. The PFD contains the flight modeannunciation, airspeed, attitude, altitude, vertical speed and heading indications.
– The airspeed indication displays current airspeed/mach, selected airspeed/mach, airspeed limits,recommended airspeeds and reference speeds, as well as speed trends.
– The attitude indication displays the airplane’s attitude as referenced to the horizon.
– Glideslope, localizer and other approach information are also displayed.
– Flight director bars are displayed when selected on the Mode Control Panel (MCP).A pitch limit indication is displayed when flaps are out of up.
– The altitude indication displays current altitude and selected altitude in feet. Current and selectedaltitude are displayed in meters as well, when selected on the respective EFIS control panel.
– Decision height, radio altitude and minimum descent altitude are displayed to the left of the altitudeindication. Barometric setting is displayed below the altitude indication.A touchdown zone (TDZ) indicator is displayed on the altitude scale indicating the landing altitude.Decision height, minimum descent altitude and barometric setting are adjusted using the respective EFIScontrol panel.
– The vertical speed indication displays current inertial vertical speed damped by baro vertical speedfrom the ADC. When vertical speed is greater than, or equal to 400 feet per minute, a digital display isadded. The readout is above the vertical speed indication if climbing and below if descending.Also the selected vertical speed is displayed.
– The heading indication displays current heading, selected heading, heading reference and drift angle.
– When the attitude signals from the IRSs differ by more than 3 degrees, an amber ROLL and/or PITCHlegend will be annunciated in the lower right and left corner of the attitude display.

Navigation Display (ND)
The ND presents a (selectable) dynamic color display of flight progress.Source selectors provide the source of information to the ND. The various display modes are labeledMAP, VOR, APP (approach), and PLN (plan).
– The MAP mode presents information against a moving map background. Displayed informationincludes track, heading, route, trend vector, range to altitude, wind, time to align, distance to andestimated time of arrival over the next waypoint and selected navigation data points. MAP mode isthe recommended display for most phases of flight.
– The VOR and APP modes are similar to the MAP mode. The selected navigation radio displays eitherVOR or Approach navigation information.
– The PLN mode presents a static map background with route data oriented to true north. The activeroute can be viewed using the MCDU LEGS pages (ref AOM 1.15.9 for details).
– Heading is supplied by the selected IRS. The ND compass rose can be referenced to magnetic northor true north.
– The compass display is automatically referenced to true north beyond certain latitudes. If the ND isreferenced to true north, either manual or automatic, and the airplane descends 2000 feet with morethan 800 feet per minute, the heading reference box changes to amber and flashes for 10 seconds.The box returns to white when the airplane climbs 2000 feet with more than 500 feet per minute.
– Passing 84⎪N flying northbound, the IRS/FMC update (status) annunciation on the left and right NDwill change into either IRS(L), IRS(C) or IRS(R) provided IRS(3) has been the previous mode.Internal voting (a comparison of each IRS position with the other two) will determine which IRS will beused by each FMC as the reference for navigation.This also causes the scratchpad message “SPLIT IRS OPERATION’.Annunciation will return to IRS(3) automatically when passing 84⎪N again flying southbound.
– Track is supplied by the FMC as by the NAV Source Selector.
– Weather radar information may be displayed on the ND. Weather radar information is available inMAP, MAP center, VOR and Approach.Radar range is limited to 320 NM.
– Various failure conditions may be displayed on each ND. A blank screen results when a power failureor CRT overtemperature occurs. Partial loss of color capability may cause an odd color presentation.Invalid information results in the display of a failure flag.No computed information removes alphanumeric information and replaces numeric information withdashes.The message ’EXCESS DATA’ will be displayed when required data exceeds computer capacity.

3. CONTROLS AND INDICATORS
3.1 EFIS CONTROLS
EFIS Control Panel– The EFIS control panel provides control of symbology options, modes and range for the respective
PFD and ND.– In the event of an electrical malfunction of the EFIS control panel, the functions can be controlled
through the respective MCDU. On later MCDU models, control of EFIS functions can also betransferred to the MCDU at pilots discretion.
Source Select SwitchingThe information sources for each PFD and ND are selected with the source selectors.Selections can be made on either side of the main instrument panel for:– Flight director– NAV source– EFIS/EICAS Interface Unit (EIU)– Inertial Reference System (IRS)– Air Data Computer (ADC)
CRT Brightness Controls– The brightness of each CRT can be varied. The outboard and inboard CRT brightness controls are
located on the glareshield. The upper and lower CRT brightness controls are located on the EICAScontrol panel.
– Light sensors located above the glareshield and near each CRT measures ambient light level at eachunit and automatically adjusts CRT brightness.
Heading Reference Switch– A Heading Reference Switch is installed on the EICAS control panel. It permits selection of a
magnetic or true reference for the NDs, PFDs, Autopilot Flight Director System (AFDS) and FMCs .
Automatic Heading Reference Change– An Automatic Heading Reference Change of the PFD and ND will occur as outlined in the figure
below. When operating in the shaded area, the PFD and ND will reference to true north.

3.19 CRT DISPLAY SWITCHING
The Cathode Ray Tube source switching is either automatic or manual, all depending on the nature of thefault. Manual switching is done by the inboard and lower CRT selectors on either pilots’ instrument panel.If both lower CRT selectors are out of ’NORM’ position, the Captain’s selection will have priority over thelower CRT except for primary EICAS display. Captain’s selections also available when on standby power.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Two recorder systems are installed:– Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR)– Digital Flight Data Recorder (DFDR).
CVR
The CVR is a sealed, fire and impact resistant unit located just aft of cabin door 15. The CVR records:– Cockpit conversation– All communications via the audio selector panel– Aural warnings– P/A.
Recording is either on a continuous loop magnetic tape for 30 minutes, or on a digital solid state recorderfor 2 hours. Solid state recorders comply with JAR requirements for new delivered airplanes from 1999onwards.
The control panel, which has test and erase buttons, is located on the aft overhead panel.The cockpit area microphone is on the forward overhead panel.The complete recording can be erased/deleted on the ground with parking brake set.
Control of the recorder is via a two position switch on the overhead panel.
ON: Solenoid held until first engine start, then springloaded to auto.
AUTO: Recorder runs from first engine start until 5 minutes after last engine shutdown.
In order to save evidence for incident investigation a safe guarded ON/OFF switch is located on thecockpit overhead panel.
DFDR
The DFDR is a sealed, fire and impact resistant unit located just aft of cabin door 15.Mandatory data of the last 25 hours of flight history is continuously recorded for post flight accidentanalysis.The flight recorder runs automatically from first engine start until last engine shutdown and records datafrom the Aircraft Condition Monitoring System (ACMS).

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Aircraft Condition Monitor System (ACMS) records over thousand (1000) parameters for post flightanalyses such as engine trend, performance, autoland and system behaviour.Also certain system limitations, once exceeding the maintenance limit, will generate exceedance reportsto facilitate maintenance in determining the cause.Some system exceedances require maintenance actions before the next flight.Therefore a particular set of reports will be printed in the cockpit after engine shutdown (to preventdistraction) whenever the maintenance limit for these particular parameters have been exceeded.
These reports are:– FLAP/GEAR OVERSPEED REPORT– OVERWEIGHT LANDING REPORT– HARD LANDING REPORT– TURBULENCE REPORT– CLEAN OVERSPEED REPORT

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 747-400 has four main gear and a steerable nose gear. The main gear consist of two steerable bodygear and two non-steerable wing gear. The nose and body gear steering systems are powered byhydraulic system 1.
Each main gear has four wheels per truck while the nose gear has two wheels. The nose and main gearwheels are interchangeable and fitted with fusible plugs which protect against tire and wheel burst incase of overheated brakes. Each main wheel is equipped with a carbon brake unit. No brake units areinstalled on the nose gear.All gear assemblies are equipped with an oil/nitrogen shock absorber.
The nose and body gear must be centered and all main gear trucks must be tilted to allow retraction intothe wheel wells. Gear truck tilting is accomplished by hydraulic actuators which rotate the trucks to anose-up attitude at airplane lift-off.
Nose and body gear extension and retraction is powered by hydraulic system 1 while hydraulic system 4provides power to retract and extend the wing gear.Alternate gear extension is provided by free-fall capability of all gear.
The forward nose wheel doors, inboard wing gear doors and outboard body gear doors are hydraulicallyoperated while the remaining gear doors are mechanically operated by their respective gear.
The operating mode of various airplane systems is controlled by an air/ground sensing system.Ground/Flight sensing is provided by:– tilt position sensors on the main gear.– a nose gear strut extension sensing system.When a combination of main gear tilt sensors indicate that the gear are tilted (air mode) or not tilted(ground mode), an air respectively ground signal is provided to control various system functions.The nose gear strut extension sensing system provides a signal to control functions in the stall warningand nose gear steering systems.
Normal and alternate brake systems are installed. The normal brake system is powered by hydraulicsystem 4 while the alternate brake system is powered by systems 1 or 2.Autobrakes are only available through the normal brake system.Anti-skid protection is provided in both brake systems.A brake temperature monitoring system and a tire pressure monitoring system are installed. Indicationsare displayed on the EICAS gear synoptic.

1.14.2Page 1
1. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS
Operation is controlled by the Landing Gear Lever located on the center main instrument panel. The leveroperates two selector valves via a mechanical linkage. One valve controls the nose and body gear, the othervalve the wing gear. The selector valves direct hydraulic pressure in accordance with UP or DOWN selectionof the Landing Gear Lever.
On the ground, the landing gear lever is prevented from being moved to UP by an automatic lever lock. Thelever lock is controlled by main gear tilt sensors and body gear steering sensors. When any main gear is nottilted or either body gear is not centered, the lever lock is engaged and the landing gear lever cannot bemoved beyond the OFF position.
In flight, with the main gear tilted, and both body gear centered, the lever lock is automatically released. If thelever lock fails to release, it can manually be overridden by pushing the LOCK OVRD button.
The landing gear operation is sequenced in such a way that a landing gear door must be fully open before itsgear retracts or extends. A door closes only when its gear is fully retracted or extended.
The nose and main gear are hydraulically locked down. The down locks are released hydraulically when thelanding gear lever is selected UP. After retraction, the gear are held in the up position by uplocks.The gear doors are kept in the closed position by hydraulic pressure.If hydraulic pressure is lost, the gear and doors are held in the up position by mechanical latches.
When selecting the landing gear lever in the DOWN position, the gear and gear doors are hydraulicallyunlocked.
With the landing gear lever in the OFF position the landing gear retraction/extension system isdepressurized. The main gear truck tilting system remains pressurized.
Alternate gear extension is activated by pushing the respective ALTN GEAR EXTEND P/Bs. The gearuplocks and gear door latches are released by individual electric motors, allowing the gear to free fall.Gravity and air loads extend the gear and springs pull the downlocks into the locked position.The associated hydraulically actuated gear doors remain open after alternate extension.
Two independent sensor systems are used for gear and door position indication on EICAS.
If any gear position disagrees with the landing gear lever position after the normal gear transit time, theEICAS caution alert GEAR DISAGREE will be displayed.
The EICAS advisory alert GEAR DOOR is displayed if any hydraulically actuated gear door is not closedafter the normal gear transit time. This alert is inhibited if alternate gear extension is selected.

1. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS
The nose and body gear steering systems are powered by hydraulic system 1.Low speed directional control is through use of the nose wheel steering tillers located at each pilot’sstation. The tillers can turn the nose wheel 70 degrees in either direction.A pointer on the tiller shows in which direction the nose wheel is turned. Two yellow marking stripesindicate a nose wheel steering angle of approximately 40 degrees in either direction.Tiller inputs override rudder pedal steering inputs. The rudder pedals provide limited nose wheel steeringwith a maximum angle of 7 degrees in either direction.
Body gear steering is automatically armed when ground speed decreases through 15 knots. As speedincreases through 20 knots, the body gear is centered and body gear steering is deactivated.
When the nose wheel steering angle exceeds 20 degrees, both body gear turn opposite to the nose geardirection to decrease turn radius and reduce tire scrubbing. When the nose wheel steering angle is lessthan 20 degrees, the body gear remain centered.
If either body gear is not centered and engine 2 or 3 thrust is in take-off range, the EICAS warning alert> CONFIG GEAR CTR is displayed.

1.14.4Page 1
1. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS
1.1 NORMAL BRAKE SYSTEM
The normal brake system is powered by hydraulic system 4.The pilots brake pedals provide independent control of pressure to the left and right main gear brakes.In flight, during gear retraction, the main gear wheels are automatically braked.The nose wheels are braked at the end of the retraction cycle by means of snubber pads located in thenose wheel well.
1.2 ALTERNATE BRAKE SYSTEM
The alternate brake system is powered by hydraulic system 1 or 2. In the event that hydraulic system 4pressure is low, alternate brake system power is provided by hydraulic system 1. If hydraulic pressure insystems 4 and 1 are low, hydraulic system 2 powers the alternate brake system. Pressure-operatedselector valves provide brake source selection.
1.3 PARKING BRAKE SYSTEM
The parking brake can be set with either the normal or alternate brake systems pressurized. When thenormal and alternate brake systems are not pressurized, brake pressure is maintained by the parking brakeaccumulator which is charged by hydraulic system 4. When hydraulic system 4 pressure is low, and system 1or 2 pressure is normal, the accumulator isolation valve closes, storing pressure in the parking brakeaccumulator. If hydraulic systems 4, 1 and 2 are not pressurized, the isolation valve opens and the normalbrake system is pressurized by the accumulator. Sufficient pressure is stored in the accumulator to set andhold the parking brake, but the accumulator is not designed to stop the airplane. When the parking brakesare set, the pedals are locked in the depressed position and the parking brake valve will be closed.
1.4 AUTOBRAKES SYSTEM
The autobrakes system is powered by hydraulic system 4.The system permits automatic braking during landing rollout or during a rejected take-off (RTO).Anti-skid protection is provided during autobrakes operation.Autobrakes are armed for landing by positioning the Autobrakes Selector to one of the five landingdeceleration rates. Brakes are automatically applied when thrust levers are closed, the ground mode issensed and wheel speed is in excess of 60 kts.The system provides braking to a complete stop or until autobrakes are disarmed.A new deceleration rate may be selected without disarming the system.With autobrakes selected to RTO before take-off, maximum brake pressure (3000 psi) is appliedautomatically when all thrust levers are closed and ground speed is above 85 knots. When the RTO isinitiated below 85 knots, autobrakes are not activated.
The autobrakes system disarms immediately if an autobrake or normal anti-skid system fault occurs.Disarming also occurs if any of the following actions are taken during autobrakes operation:– Manual braking.– Advancing any Thrustlever after a rejected take-off or after landing.– Moving the Speedbrake Lever to the DN detent after speedbrakes have been deployed on the
ground.– Selecting the Autobrakes Selector to DISARM or OFF.When the autobrakes system disarms, the selector moves to DISARM, except for RTO, where theselector remains in the RTO position.
Selecting the Autobrakes Selector to OFF removes power from the system. After take-off, the selectorautomatically moves to OFF.
The EICAS advisory alert AUTOBRAKES is displayed if the autobrakes system is disarmed or inoperative,the Autobrakes Selector is OFF but the system is armed, or an RTO is initiated above 85 kts but brakes havenot been applied.

1.14.4 Brake SystemAircraft Operations Manual 747-400
Page 21.14.4 22 FEB 2001
Issue 4
1.5 ANTISKID SYSTEM
Each main gear wheel is individually provided with anti-skid protection when normal brakes areoperative. Wheel speed is compared with airplane inertial deceleration and the speed of the otherwheels. When skidding is initially detected, the anti-skid controller commands the respective anti-skidvalve to reduce brake pressure.
During alternate brake operation, anti-skid is provided to wheel pairs instead of individual wheels.
To prevent damage to the landing gear, a brake torque sensor is provided at each wheel brake to detectexcessive torque during braking. When excessive torque is detected on an individual wheel, a signal issent to the related anti-skid valve to release brake pressure to that wheel.
If the alternate brake system is used and brake torque is sensed on an individual wheel, the signal is sentto the alternate anti-skid valve and brake pressure is released on a paired wheel basis.
In addition to skid protection, touchdown braking protection is provided by comparing wheel speed toIRS groundspeed.Before landing, all anti-skid valves are closed preventing pressure supply to the brake units. Attouchdown, wheel speed signals remove the touchdown protection and brake pressure is supplied.
During ground roll the speed of each wheel is compared with a wheel on the same side of each truck.Detection of a locked wheel results in brake pressure release of the slow wheel until spin-up recurs.
1.6 BRAKE TEMPERATURE AND TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM
Main gear wheel brake temperatures are displayed in units on the EICAS gear synoptic. If secondaryEICAS is not available, wheel brake temperatures are displayed on primary EICAS when the GearSynoptic P/B is pushed. The EICAS advisory alert BRAKE TEMP is displayed when any braketemperature is equal to or greater than 5 units.
A tire pressure indicating system displays all 18 tire pressures on the EICAS gear synoptic page.The EICAS caution or advisory alert TIRE PRESSURE is displayed if one or more tire pressure are out oflimits. The caution alert is displayed on the ground if take-off thrust has not been applied. The advisoryalert is only displayed after take-off thrust has been applied as well as during flight.

– Arming is only possible when:S Normal Anti-skid system is serviceable.S Hydraulic system 4 pressure is available.S No failure exists in the autobrake system.
– Activation of the RTO mode is accomplished whenthrust levers are closed, the ground mode issensed and ground speed is above 85 kts.The Autobrakes Selector will return to OFFautomatically when aircraft leaves the ground.
– Activation of the autobrakes after landing isaccomplished when thrust levers are closed, theground mode is sensed and wheel speed isabove 60 kts.
– After touchdown the autobrakes system controlsthe deceleration according to the selected mode:S 1 -- (4.0 ft/sec2)S 2 -- (5.0 ft/sec2)S 3 -- (6.0 ft/sec2)S 4 -- (7.5 ft/sec2)S MAX AUTO - (11 ft/sec2)
– In case of RTO the autobrakes system appliesmaximum brake pressure (3000 psi).
– The selected mode is displayed as a memomessage on EICAS.
– At any time, the autobrakes system can bedeactivated by:S Operating the brake pedals.S Advancing any thrust lever.S Moving the speedbrake lever to the DN detent

1.15.1Page 1
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Inertial Reference Systems (IRS) consist of three Inertial Reference Units (IRU) and are controlled via asingle control panel which is located on the overhead panel. When operating in the navigation mode, eachIRU provides:– attitude– acceleration– ground speed and track– true and magnetic heading– present latitude and longitude– wind speed and direction.
Alignment and Navigation (NAV)
About 10 seconds after positioning the IRS Mode Selector to the NAV position the EICAS memo messageIRS ALIGN MODE (..) is displayed indicating the start of alignment. Alignment requires approximately tenminutes. Remaining alignment time, when less than 7 minutes, is displayed in the LH upper corner of theNavigation Display.Alignment can be accomplished only while the airplane is parked.Present position (latitude and longitude) must be entered during alignment.This entry is made on the POS INIT page of the MCDU.The FMS will compare inserted position against last computed position. Large differences between positionswill not be accepted (e.g. East instead of West) unless consistently inserted three times.When the entered present position differs with the last known position as stored in memory, by more thanone (1) degree latitude or longitude, than the MCDU scratchpad message ENTER IRS POSITION appears.In addition, when the distance between the entered present position and the origin airport as activated in theFMS, differ by 6 nm or more, than the scratchpad message IRS POS/ORIGIN DISAGREE appears.The system automatically enters the NAV mode when the selector is in NAV, present position has beenentered and alignment is complete. Position can be re-entered until any IRU is in the NAV mode.The memo message IRS ALIGN MODE (..) will disappear when the respective IRS has entered the NAVmode.The airplane should not be moved during alignment. If the airplane is moved during alignment, the EICASadvisory alert IRS MOTION is displayed and the alignment stops until the motion stops. Then the alignmentcontinues.
Dealing with errors
During a trip of several flights, accumulated IRS errors can be removed by a thirty-second realignment,accomplished while the airplane is parked. It is accomplished by selecting ALIGN and entering latitude andlongitude. Then the selector is repositioned to NAV. However NAV POS (FMC) will not update. If during thesubsequent flight leg nav updating is lost, the FMC will gradually flush all updates and refer back to the lastentered position during a full alignment cycle. As the KLM route structure is mostly long haul, and fullalignment takes not more than 10 minutes, this procedure is not used in day to day operation, in order toprevent large accumulated errors.
Attitude (ATT)
If alignment is lost when inflight, indicated by the EICAS advisory alert IRS LEFT (CENTER) (RIGHT), therespective IRS NAV mode is inoperative for the remainder of the flight. However, attitude information can stillbe obtained by moving the selector to ATT. This relevels the system and provides attitude display on thePFD. Some attitude errors may occur during acceleration. After acceleration, errors are slowly removed. Theattitude mode can also provide magnetic heading signals, but a magnetic input is required to initialize theIRS heading. This heading entry is made on the POS INIT page of the MCDU and must be updatedperiodically.

Electrical Power
The system can operate on AC or DC power.At system initialization, after positioning the mode selector to NAV, the system goes through a test cycle toensure that the unit can be powered from the APU battery.When AC power is lost (aircraft on STBY PWR), the IRUs are powered by the APU battery.IRU left and right remain powered from the APU battery for at least 30 minutes.The center IRU will shutdown after 5 minutes to preserve reserve power.If an IRU loses both AC and DC power, alignment is lost.
The EICAS advisory alerts >IRS AC LEFT (CENTER)(RIGHT) and/or >IRS DC LEFT(CENTER)(RIGHT) willbe displayed when the respective power source is not available.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
A dual ADF system is installed. Each system consist of an integral sense loop antenna and a receiver. Theantenna’s are mounted on top of the fuselage and the receivers are installed in the center equipment center.Tuning the ADF receivers is accomplished using the Flight Management System (FMS) Multifunction ControlDisplay Units (MCDU’s). If the MCDU is interfaced with an operating Flight Management Computer (FMC),tuning is accomplished using the NAV RAD key to access the NAV RADIO page. The FMC master selectoron the center instrument panel selects the FMC that is responsible for tuning the ADF receivers. ADFbearing is displayed on the ND.ADF audio selection and volume control is through the audio control panel.
The receiver is tuned by entering a valid ADF frequency. The ADF receiver is defaulted to the ADF mode ofoperation. If the ANT(enna) mode is desired, requiring an omni directional reception, enter the letter A afterthe frequency.Entering the letter B will result in the BFO mode of operation.

1.15.3Page 1
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Two DME systems are installed, each consisting of a five channel interrogator and an antenna.Tuning of the five independent channels is through the FMCs.
Tuning
Both DMEs will be automatically tuned either by the left or right FMC, depending on the position of the FMCmaster selector on the center instrument panel. Manual tuning is through the FMC via the NAV RADIO pageon the MCDU.If neither FMC is operating, tuning is accomplished using the ALT NAV RADIO page accessible via the NAVRAD key on the MCDU. Manual tuning of the left and right DME is then performed exclusively by the left andright MCDU.
Frequency Scanning
Each DME has five independent tuning channels which can be controlled through either FMC.Two channels are dedicated for autotune, two will be used for manual, route and procedure tuning, while thefifth channel is for ILS/DME.The FMS is continuously looking for the best pair via the autotune channels to establish DME-DME radioupdate.This channel tuning scenario implies that the displayed DMEs on the ND are not necessarily those used forradio updating.
Indication
Visual:DME is displayed on the ND in the APPROACH, VOR and MAP mode.ILS/DME distance is displayed on the PFD during approach when the ILS receivers are tuned to anILS/DME frequency.
The display will show dashes when the receiver output is valid but no signals are received whichindicates No Computed Data (NCD).
The display will turn blank on both NDs and both PFDs when the selected FMC (Master) fails.
Audible:DME audio can be heard by using the VOR receiver control on an audio select panel.When an ILS with a co-located DME has been tuned, DME audio is heard by using the APP receivercontrol.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
ILS, GPS (and MLS) signals are processed through three independent Multi Mode Receivers(MMR L, C and R). LOC and G/S signals are obtained either from the capture antenna or the track antenna.The antenna location is:S underneath the radome for both the localizer track and glideslope capture.S in the vertical fin for localizer capture.S on the nosegear doors for glideslope track.Switching over from the capture antenna to the track antenna is accomplished at the selection of the APP orLOC mode for localizer and gear down for glideslope. The EICAS alert ’ILS ANTENNA’ will be displayedwhen either LOC or G/S antennas fail to switch over to the track antennas.
Tuning
The three independent ILS receivers in the MMR’s are normally auto-tuned by the FMCs whenever a flightplan has been entered including an arrival and a ILS equipped runway.The FMC will auto-tune the ILS when either:– within 150 miles of the destination airport.– within 50 miles of T/D.Manual tuning is through the FMC by entering a frequency and course on the NAV RADIO page on theMCDU. In the event that both FMCs fail, the MCDUs are used as a standby tuning source by using the NAVRAD key to obtain the ALTN NAV RADIO page on the L/C/R MCDU for ILS L/C/R respectively.The tuned frequency is displayed on the PFD and on the ND when in the Approach mode.Whenever the signal is identified, by a decoder within the ILS receiver, the decoded identifier is displayed.If the tuned ILS frequencies or courses disagree between the ILS receivers, an amber horizontal line isdrawn through the associated frequency and/or course.
Tuning inhibition
Manual and autotuning is inhibited after LOC or G/S capture when either:– An A/P is engaged.– The FD is engaged and the altitude is less than 500 ft RA.
Indication
The PFD provides localizer and glideslope deviation. When the ND is in APP mode, localizer and glideslopedeviation and selected frequency and course are displayed.Localizer deviation is normally displayed by a white, four-dot scale and solid magenta diamond pointer.This display will change into a two mark expanded scale when the AFDS is engaged in LOC and subsequentROLLOUT mode where either mark represents half a dot-deflection.When ground speed is less than 30 kts or RA is greater than 200 ft and neither AFDS mode is armed,display will revert back to standard localizer scale.The magenta diamond deviation pointers for LOC and G/S changes from solid to open when the deviation isoff scale.

Deviation warning
Localizer or Glideslope display will change from white to amber and the deviation pointers (diamonds) willflash 4 times a second for:– Excessive deviation;
When either the autopilot or FD is engaged in the APP mode and:S The G/S deviation is more than .8 dot for more than one second and the HAT is between 500 ft

and 0 ft RA.– Localizer not captured;
S Active when descending below 950 ft RA in approach, with LNAV engaged and LOC armed.
System fault indication
Antenna switching position is monitored by AFDS and EICAS.The caution alert ’ILS ANTENNA’ is displayed when two or more antennas fail to switch.In case of ’no computed data’ (receiver valid but no signal received) the LOC and G/S deviation pointers areremoved but the scale is retained.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Two independent systems, designated VOR-L (left) and VOR-R (right), are installed.Each system consist of a receiver and an antenna.Output is used for indication on the Navigation Display (ND) and by the Flight Management Computer (FMC)for position updating.
Tuning
The VOR receivers are automatically tuned by the FMCs if a flight plan has been previously entered andwhen at least one of the FMCs is operational.
Manual tuning is through the FMC via the NAV RADIO page on the MCDU, by means of ident or frequencytuning.Because the FMS needs present position to determine the NAVAID frequency paired to an ident, ident tuningis inhibited when the IRS is OFF or the align phase is active. Course selection is also through the MCDU.In the event that both the left and right FMC fail, the MCDU’s are used as a standby tuning device by usingthe NAV RAD key to call up the ALTN NAV RADIO page. The VOR receiver is then frequency tuned from theonside MCDU.
Tuning Status
Tuning status options, which will be displayed on the FMS NAV RADIO page adjacent to the frequencies, canbe as follows:A -- Auto : Automatic tuning by the master FMC relative to the aircraft present position.R -- Route : FMC selects navaids on the active route. The navaid is the next VOR, previous VOR or a
downpath VOR on the active route and within 250 NM of aircraft position.P -- Procedure: When the tunable NAVAID is a waypoint on the active DEP/ARR procedure.M -- Manual : Manual tuned via the NAV RADIO page. ’M’ prevents A, R and P.
Indication
VOR parameter display is on the ND when:– The ND is selected to VOR. They consist of:
VOR bearing, deviation, system source annunciation, TO/FROM indication, tuned frequency, course andflag warning for the on-side VOR.
– The ND is selected to MAP. They consist of:System source annunciation, ident or frequency.
Raw data pointers and frequency or ident can be called up for by selecting either VOR-OFF-ADF switch toVOR on the EFIS control panel.Station ident audio is through the ACPs.
System Self Monitoring
When no-computed data has been determined (absence of signals while system is healthy), the coursearrow and TO/FROM annunciation are removed from view and dashes replace the alphanumericdisplays.In case of invalid data (system not healthy) or when the selected FMC (Master) fails, deviation bar andscale, TO/FROM annunciation, course arrow and alphanumeric displays will be blank.
Marker Beacon
The marker beacon receiver is part of each VOR receiver, but is activated only in the LH VOR.Displays of the outer (OM), middle (MM) and inner/airways (IM) marker is on the PFD in the RH upper cornerof the attitude sphere. The associated aural can be monitored via the ACP.
