    Study Notes

    ECAM System

    • System Data Acquisition Concentrators (SDACs) collect and process aircraft system data for display on the ECAM displays.

    Flight Warning Computers

    • Flight Warning Computers (FWCs) supply aural alerts and synthetic voice messages to the pilots' headsets.
    • FWCs are responsible for monitoring aircraft systems and generating warnings for the pilots.
    • FWCs also supply aural alerts and synthetic voice messages to the pilots' headsets.

    ECAM Displays

    • Under normal circumstances, the Display Management Computers (DMCs) supply images to the ECAM displays.
    • The control knobs for adjusting the brightness of the ECAM screens are located on the display units.

    Engine/Warning Display

    • The lower area of the Engine/Warning Display (EWD) is used to display warning messages.

    System Display

    • The A/C STATUS page on the System Display (SD) shows the aircraft's systems status.

    Alerts and Warnings

    • The Flight Warning Computers (FWCs) direct aural alerts and synthetic voice messages to the pilots' headsets.
    • The red MASTER WARNING lights in front of each pilot are used to grab their attention in emergency situations.

    Display Management Computers

    • The DMCs generate images on the EFIS displays using data from the SDACs.
    • Under normal circumstances, the Captain's EFIS display is supplied by the Left DMC, and the First Officer's EFIS display is supplied by the Right DMC.

    Push Buttons

    • The P/Bs on the RH side are mainly used to control the ECAM system.
