Study Notes

CMC Test Availability and Types

  • CMC tests are specific to Airbus systems.
  • Ground tests are accessible for all major systems within the Boeing CMC system.
  • Output tests are included in all Airbus CMC systems.

Test Procedure

  • Tests require selecting a specific system and pressing the line select key.
  • The display indicates 'test in progress' while the system computer manages the testing process.

Fault Management and Reporting

  • Boeing CMC system features confidence tests applicable to all systems.
  • The system computer relays the most likely fault cause to the CMC.
  • Cockpit effects and fault messages are not related.
  • The Leg Report provides information about flight deck effects.
  • Message numbers facilitate quick reference to the fault isolation manual.

Failure Correlation and Automatic Processes

  • Failure correlation entails comparing various information sources to identify issues.
  • Modern CMC systems automatically conduct failure correlation.

Safety Features

  • The 'ground test enable switch' halts all test signals when set to the NORMAL position.
  • The CMCS is designed to allow testing during flight, incorporating safety features.
  • Switch guards are implemented to prevent accidental operations while in-flight.

Test Preconditions and Results

  • System tests must meet specific conditions before execution.
  • No detected failures during a test will display a clear message identifying the failed Line Replaceable Unit (LRU).
  • A clear message indicating a failure confirms the Centralized Status Unit (CSU) as the probable cause.
