Questions and Answers

The CMCS prevents tests during flight by special safety features. Some Boeing confidence tests can run during flight. Safety feature: 1. ______ 2. ______

inside the CMC - allows test selection only on ground, ground test enable switch - switch interrupts all test signals when it is in the NORMAL position

The switch guard: 1. ______ 2. ______

Prevent inadvertent operation during flight, Now open

Test result show: 1. ______ 2. ______ 3. ______

Test OK if no failure detected, name of the LRU that failed the test = clear message, not a clear message need additional information from the trouble shooting manual before repair can start

You can only trust a test result if all the components that could be responsible for a reported fault have been really tested. If you are in doubt, refer to the trouble shooting or maintenance manual to see the content of the test. Clear message in this test result: 1. ______ 2. ______ 3. ______ 4. ______

Input monitoring provides information about system input data in coded format and configuration data about the computer program version, and these options are not used for normal maintenance. CMCS TESTS serve two main purposes: 1. To confirm that the LRU is really _____________. 2. To make sure that a repair or component removal solved the problem.

Airbus CMC system offers up to three different tests: 1. System test - available in all systems. 2. Complementary test. 3. Output test. The complementary test and the output test are only available in certain systems. In Boeing CMC system, two different types of tests are available from the menu: Ground tests are available for all major systems, comparable to the Airbus system, and complementary tests. Confidence tests are available for only a few systems, mainly used for preflight checks and are comparable to the Airbus output tests. All the tests work the same way: 1. Select system you want to test. 2. Select the test by pressing the line select key. 3. Sends test request signal to the system computer. 4. BITE Display shows the message: 'test in progress' while the Bite is controlling the necessary test steps in the system. 5. The test result is sent back to the central maintenance computer system where it appears on the display.

4 different complementary tests are available for the flap system. Please select WTB/POB test to see an example. Before the start of the complementary test, Cautions - advises you that there are risks of personal injury and of possible damage to the aircraft. Fulfill initial conditions - hydraulic system must be pressurized or HYD ON. Before the test really starts: Caution message again confirms the start of the test by pressing a different LS key to the one on the previous page. BITE: Generates inputs to actuators and valves. Checks the result by reading the feedback signals. Present test result. Test close up brings the aircraft back to the status before started the test. Complementary Test Close Up list: Specific for each system. Output test: ______ 2.

Study Notes

CMCS and Safety Features

  • CMCS prevents tests during flight using special safety mechanisms.
  • Certain Boeing confidence tests can be performed in-flight.

Safety Features

  • Specific safety feature details were not provided in the text.
  • Switch guards enhance operational safety; specific details were not provided.

Test Results

  • Comprehensive test results are essential; details on faults and rectifications were not fully listed.
  • Reliability of test results relies on thorough component testing.

Clear Messages in Test Results

  • Important messages highlight significant findings and alerts; specific details were not provided.

Boeing CMC Menu Functions

  • Additional functions for data retrieval are located under the CMC menu item "other functions."
  • Input monitoring provides system data in coded format and computer program configuration data.

CMCS Tests Purpose

  • Tests confirm operational integrity of LRUs (Line Replaceable Units).
  • Tests validate that repairs or component removals effectively addressed issues.

Airbus CMC Testing

  • Airbus CMC offers three test types: system test, complementary test, output test.
  • Not all tests are available in every system; specific functionalities vary.

Boeing CMC Testing Types

  • Boeing CMC has two test categories: ground tests (available to all major systems) and complementary tests.
  • Confidence tests are limited to select systems, generally used for preflight checks.

Testing Process

  • Testing involves multiple steps: selecting the system, executing the test, and receiving results via BITE display.
  • A pass result indicates no faults detected; further actions are guided by fail messages.

Complementary Tests in Boeing CMC

  • Certain components not tested during system tests may undergo complementary tests.
  • Procedures include specific tests for systems like FLAP CONTROL, requiring preconditions (e.g., hydraulic pressurization).

Complementary Test Requirements

  • Cautions advise on injury risks and aircraft damage before initiating tests.
  • The BITE system generates inputs to actuators/valves, checks outputs via feedback signals, and manages pre-test conditions.

Closing Tests

  • Test closure ensures systems return to pre-test operational status.
  • Detailed test results are system-specific, emphasizing the need for meticulous record-keeping.
