The intended use of the ADI/HSI


FPI is to display the aircraft's primary attitude (ADI) and to display
course, heading, glideslope, etc.
(HSI). The indicator replaces
electromechanical ADI and HSI
indicators with Active Matrix LCD
technology. A single indicator
(herein referred to as the
"ADI/HSI") can provide the capability to function as either an
Attitude Direction Indicator (ADI)
or a Horizontal Situation Indicator
(HSI) depending on configuration
strap settings.

18

Throughout this document, the


terms ADI and HSI are used to
identify the two primary functions
of the indicator even though the
indicator itself is more correctly
identified as an EADI/EHSI
(Electronic ADI or HSI).

Reversionary mode capability is also provided so that during normal


operation, in the event of a failed ADI or HSI, the other FPI has the
capability to assume the function of both in the Integrate mode.
Reversionary mode data is hard wired into each ADI and HSI as
much as possible. Reversionary mode is discussed in more detail

Introduction
1.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

The indicator is designed for high reliability through the use of ASICs
and optimized mechanical packaging. The display is a flat panel
active matrix LCD with backlighting provided by a cold cathode fluorescent lamp.
A Graphics Processor (GP) module produces flight instrument symbology on the LCD display. The Interface Processor (IP) and I/O
modules consists of a 32 bit microprocessor, ARINC 429 interface
capability, and analog/discrete interface capability. These modules
process all of the control inputs from the indicator's front bezel/controls, external ARINC 429 input data, external discrete data (includes
superflags), synchro and analog data, and provides the interface to
the GP module. The Low Voltage Power Supply (LVPS) provides the
necessary power to all of the systems components, while the High
Voltage Power Supply (HVPS) provides power for the cold cathode
lamp. Dimming circuitry is provided to control the lamp's brightness.
The heaters (LCD and lamp) are activated when the unit is not at the
proper operational temperature due to cold ambient conditions.

1.2 INTERNAL MONITORING


The EADI and EHSI FPDs monitor the safety and integrity of the system operation and isolate and annunciate failures as necessary.
Additional monitors provide fault isolation capability to isolate faults to
the SRU level. Loss of power to the indicator results in a completely
blank indicator. Failures that result in display of misleading information also results in a completely blank indicator. Failure conditions
due to input data failures, indicator failure, or indicator interface failures result in annunciating the appropriate failure message on the
indicator. All ADI and HSI failure warning flags are annunciated as
black text in a red box. All caution flags are annunciated as black text
in a yellow box.
Each 5ATI flat panel display contains an Interface Processor (IP) and
a Graphics Processor (GP). The IP contains built-in-test functions
that monitor the displays health on a continuous basis. Detected
failures result in either annunciation to the flight crew that a display
failure exists or flagging the appropriate display data. Detected failures are also logged in non-volatile memory for retrieval later.

Introduction

The Graphics Processor communicates with the IP via a host interface and dual port memory. The GP executes its own BIT independent of the IP to determine its own health status. The GP also acts
as an independent monitor of the IP and the IP independently monitors the GP. If the GP detects an IP failure, it shall independently display to the flight crew a fail status message DU FAIL.
Integrity of displayed data is verified using two separate functions.
First, random pixels in unused portions of the LCD are driven by the
Graphics Engine and the pixel location and color are wrapped back
around and compared with the bit map of the display. Miscompares
result in displaying DU FAIL. Second, the IP selects a portion of the
display for monitoring by instructing the GP to return a small window
of pixels. In the case where pitch data is monitored the horizon line is
captured and the pixel data reconstituted by the IP to verify that the
correct pitch attitude was displayed. This monitoring provides an endto-end wrap around verification of displayed critical data.

1.3 ADI/HSI FUNCTION MONITORING


Critical input data consisting of the synchro inputs of pitch, roll, and
heading are monitored for the following conditions and a failure flag is
displayed if any of these conditions exists:
1. Invalid display data or displaying misleading data.
2. Synchro input data outside reasonable window.
3. External data valid signal indicates "invalid".
All other input data with an associated valid signal is not used when
the data valid signal indicates invalid. Data in this category
includes: Course deviation, glideslope deviation, localizer deviation,
radio altitude, speed command, rate of turn, and INS/DME distance.

On a display configured as an

the display reverting to the ADI presentation. The display will not
automatically return to Integrate mode when pitch value is reduced to
less than 23 degrees. The Integrate mode must be manually reselected. On a display configured as an HSI, pitch value does not

Special Considerations

4. SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
4.1 NAVIGATION SOURCE COMBINATIONS
During approach mode (a valid ILS frequency selected), a normal
EADI will display a glideslope scale with pointer and a rising runway.
When displayed, the glideslope pointer position is always determined
by the on-side glideslope receiver. The lateral position of the runway
is always determined by the on-side localizer and the vertical position of the runway is always determined by the on-side radio altimeter. Cross-side and other sensors are never used, therefore there is
no need to identify these sensor sources. During enroute mode (a
valid ILS frequency is not selected) the glideslope scale and runway
symbol are removed from the EADI display.
The navigation sources used to position the course deviation bar on
the EHSI are identified since three sources are possible. INS is
annunciated as NAV, VOR is annunciated as VOR and localizer is
annunciated as ILS. The glideslope scale with pointer position
determined by the glideslope receiver is also displayed when the
course deviation bar is driven by the localizer receiver and ILS is
annunciated as the navigation source. The glideslope scale and
pointer are removed from display on the EHSI when the selected
sensor is VOR or NAV.
When Integrate mode is selected on an EADI, the navigation source
used to position the course deviation bar on the integrated display will
match that selected for use on the associated EHSI. These navigation sources are identified with the same annunciations used on the
EHSI.
Some aircraft installations allow independent selection of navigation
sensors for the EADI and EHSI. This can result in unexpected combinations of sensors between the two displays and also on a single
EADI display with the Integrate mode selected. For example, the
presence of a glideslope scale and pointer on an EADI in Integrate
mode does not insure that the course deviation bar on the same display is driven by the localizer. The actual navigation source of lateral
deviation may be NAV, VOR or ILS as selected for the EHSI. The
correct navigation source is annunciated in all cases and must be
used to avoid confusion. All the possible combinations are shown in
the following figures.

4.2 HEADING FAILURE


Invalid heading is indicated by replacing the digital heading readout
with a red HDG flag. The compass card will continue to be displayed and will rotate in response to the heading signal received by
the EHSI. If the heading signal is not received by the EHSI, the compass card will freeze at the last valid value for heading and the HDG
flag will be in view.
When the HDG flag is displayed, the positions of the selected heading bug and selected course arrow should not be trusted. This is
because heading is used to generate the selected heading and
selected course signals received by the EHSI, and the validity of
heading at that location (outside the EHSI) is unknown.

4.3 SELECTED COURSE FAILURE

If selected course is not received by the EHSI, the selected course


arrow head and tail are removed from the display and the course
deviation scale is fixed in a horizontal position (selected course
defaults to aircraft heading). The to/from arrow will continue to be displayed if the to/from signal is still received from the selected navigation source. The to/from arrow and course deviation may be incorrect
since the selected course used by the navigation source (if any) is
unknown.

When power is initially applied to
the EADI/EHSI system, various
flags may be annunciated on the

not yet operational. If all flags do
not clear, then recheck the
