UNIT 4. INSTRUMENTS
Lower Display
The lower display provides elapsed time (ET) from 00 hours 00 minutes to 99 hours 59 minutes or chronographic time (CHR) from 00 minutes 00 seconds to 99 minutes 59 seconds. Control of this displa y is provided by the ET and CHR switches.
DATE Switch
The DATE is shown on the GMT display when the DATE push button is pushed.
SET Switch
The GMT or date display is controlled by th e SET switch. This switch is located in the lower corner of the indicator. The normal position is RUN.
Clock Switch
The Captain’s and F/O’s CLOCK switches (= remote clock switches) are located on either side of the glareshield. The CHR and remote clock switches are con­nected in parallel and operate the chronograph display. Both switches cycle the chronograph through the start, hold and reset functions of the chronograph mode.
BITE
All clock failures are indicated in the same man ner. The clock displays go blank and the sweep second hand is frozen. In addition, transmission of GMT output data words is halted.
Elapsed Time Operation
The elapsed time (ET) control switch is located in the lower left corner. This switch operates as follows:
61
AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE
In the RESET position, the ET display is blanked and the elapsed time in-
dication is set to zero. The RESET position is sprin g loaded to return the switch to the HLD position.
The HLD (hold) position of the switch freezes the ET display at the present
indicated value.
In the RUN position, time is accumulated from the last hold or reset condi-
tion. The display automatically advances from this indicated value.
Chrono Time Operation
The CHR switch is located in the upper left co rner. This switch operates as fol­lows:
The first press of the switch starts the chronograph running.
A second press of the switch freezes the chronograph display at the present
indicated value.
A third press of the switch resets the CHR accumulator to zero. The contents
of the ET accumulator is then displayed. If the ET accumulator contains zero, the elapsed time display is blanked and the sweep second hand goes to zero. Chronograph operation replaces the display of the elapsed time, but does not af­fect the internal operation of the ET accumulator.
GMT Setting
The GMT is adjusted by the SET switch.
The RUN setting of this switch is the normal o perating position for
the clock. GMT is shown continuously while in this mode.
The HLD (hold) setting is used to freeze the GMT display. Setting
the switch to this position will hold the display at its present indicated value.
The MS (minute slew) setting is used for slow slew operation. When set to this position, the seconds display is reset to zero. The minute display au­tomatically advances at a rate of 1 minute/second. The hours display is frozen at its present indicated value.
The HS (hour slew) setting is used for fast slew operation. When in this position, the hours display automatically advances at a rate of 1 hour/second. The minutes display is frozen at its present indicated value.
Date Setting
Setting the date can be accomplished by the combined use of the SET switch and the push button DATE switch. The day control function on the SET swit ch pos i­tions are: D, M, and Y, which are located adjacent to HS, MS, and HLD of the GMT control, respectively. Each function is operated as follows:

The D setting is used for changing the day display. When in this p o- sition, the day display automatically advances at a rate of one day per second up to maximum value of 31,30, 29, or 28 depending on the month setting and rein­crementing from 01. The month display does not change.
The M setting is used for changing month display. When in this p o- sition, the month display automatically advances at a rate of one month per se­cond, up to maximum value of 12 and reincrementing from 01. The day display does not change.
The Y setting is used for changing year display. Turning the SET switch to Y position will cause the two right hand digits to update one year per second up to maximum value of 99 and reincrementing from 00. The two left hand digits will be blank.

Flight Data Recorder System FDRS/ Aircraft Conditioning
Monitoring System ACMS
Because they put together the function of DFDRS and ACMS in one box, the unit is called DFDAMRU (Digital Flight Data and Management Recording Unit). In the question of power supply, location and some handling we can’t di­vide this two systems, but generally they have two individually duties and use therefore different associated systems:
The DFDRS (Digital Flight Data Recording System) fulfil assignments for
the authority, by recording of important (mandatory) Parameters, which are realized by the FDAU-part of the DFDAMRU and the following systems
- DFDR, Digital Flight Data Recorder
- ACC, three axis accelerometer
- Flight Recorder Test Module
- Event Push Button.
An ULB (Under Water Locator Beacon) is strapped to the DFDR.
The ACMS (Aircraft Conditioning Monitoring System) fulfil assignments of
continuous control of essential Engine-Data for Engine Condition Monitoring and other flight data and aircraft data, which is realized by the use of the DMU-part (Data Management Unit) of the DFDAMRU and the following systems:
- MCDU
- Printer
- Print Push Button
- ADL, Airborne Data Loader
- Diskettes.
Cockpit Location Of Dfdr/Acms
Sensors
The following Flight Control Sensors are only used for data recording:
Control Wheel Position Sensor (M520)
Control Column Position Sensor (M521)
Rudder Pedal Position Sensor (M522)
Horizontal Stabilizer Position Sensor (M1192)

Spare Paper Rolls
Two spare paper rolls are stored in the cockpit.
Flight Data Acquisition Unit (Fdau)
FDAU processes and prepares all input signals for recording. Electronic circuit s in the FDAU provide isolation, perform the functio ns of preconditioning, mult i­plexing, scaling, synchronization, and converting input signals of various forms to digital format and sending them to the flight data recorder and the QAR for storage. A test set plug and a BITE indicator are located on the front panel of the FDAU. The test set plug is provided to connect external test equipment. The BITE indicator comes on when BITE circuitry wit hin the FDAU detect a mal­function. The FDAU provides 28 volt dc power for the accelerometer excitation.
Flight Data Recorder
The flight data recorder stores the output data for the last 25 hours of airplane operation. Data is stored on the 1/4-inch wide magnetic tape. The tape and transport are located in a 1/2 ATR crash-proo f container within the flight data recorder. Some aircraft have Fairchild Recorders without a magnetic tape, but with a solid state memory. The Fairchild SSFDR uses data compression to store aircraft flight information. The data is compressed by the compression/store data acquisition circuit card. The data is stored in the crash survivable store unit. The crash survivable store unit is a hardened cubical where the memory chips are lo­cated. The SSFDR will store 25 hours of data. The tape transport assembly pro­tects the recorded data against fire and impact. This protection includes an inner aluminum cover, isothermal protection shield, an outer stainless steel cas ing and an exterior stainless steel dust cover. This design enables the flight data recorder to meet a test of 20,000 pounds of crush per axis, and provides impact protection of 1000 g’s for 5 msec. When the equipment is subjected to high thermal envi­ronments the isothermal insulation maintains the inner chamber at a s afe tempe r­ature. The front panel of the flight data recorder has a test connector and an un­derwater locator beacon (ULB). The test connector lets you attach a portable tester or a copy recorder to the flight data recorder. The ULB transmits an ultra­sonic signal when it is under wat er. There are no electrical connections between the ULB and the flight data recorder. A battery within the ULB supplies the ULB with power.
Underwater Locator Beacon (Ulb)
The ULB is a battery operated unit that transmits pulses when immersed in wa­ter. The ULB has a detection range of 2,000 to 4,000 yards and an operating life of approximately 30 days.

Quick Access Recorder (Qar)
The QAR is a 3/8 ATR container weighing 6.25 kg and is on the electrical equipment shelf E2-1. The QAR records maintenance data from the FDAU through an electrical connector on the rear of the unit when the AIDS power is applied. The QAR consists of a removable tape cartridge, power supply, elec­tronic con-trol circuits, and tape deck assembly with motor. The front panel con­tains three indicator lights: The red FLAG indicator illuminates to indicate FAILURE DETECTED The green TRACK 1 indicator ill uminates while track 1 is in use The red TAPE LOW indicator illuminates at the beginn ing of track 12 . The QAR records the data sequentially on twelve tracks. The tape speed of
1.19 cm/sec corresponds to a data rate of 768 bits per second (bps) for a total re ­cording time of 50 hours. A memory circuit provides positive memory of tape direction and track number during power off periods. The tape drive stops auto­matically at the end of the last track to prevent erasing previously recorded data by re-recording the same segment of tape. When a tape cartridge is extracted, the track memory circuit is automatically reset to track 1. A front panel push button is also provided for manual reset to track 1. The front panel access door must be properly closed before the QAR will oper-ate. The tape cartridge contains 180m of 1/2 inch wide 3M tape.
Accelerometer
The 3-axis accelerometer, M517, measures vertical, lateral and longitudinal ac­celeration and provides a separat e output signal with respect to ground for each. Excitation for the accelerometer is 28v dc supplied by the FDAU. The accel­erometer is a self-contained sealed unit mounted on the aft side of the forward wall of the right wheel well at station 664.
