Figure 31 2B-09-00 Page 2 Nov 15/02 DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS OPERATING MANUAL 2. Page Organization The radio tuning function is accessed via the RADIO function key on the MCDU, which displays the RADIO 1/2 page. All other pages are accessed from RADIO 1/2 using the line select keys or the NEXT and PREV function keys, shown in Figure 32. Figure 32 Movement between the RADIO 1/2 and RADIO 2/2 pages is done with the NEXT and PREV function keys, while access to the COM DETAIL, TCAS/XPDR, and NAV DETAIL pages is via line select keys from RADIO 1/2 and access to the HF DETAIL, MLS DETAIL, and ADF DETAIL pages are via line select keys from RADIO 2/2. DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS 2B-09-00 Page 3 Nov 15/02 OPERATING MANUAL 3. MCDU Tuning Description All of the pages that correspond to a particular radio type (e.g., VHF communications or ADF) are arranged as shown in Figures 33, 34, and 35, and typically consist of a details page along with two memory pages. The details pages allow the specific features of each radio to be configured and provide access to the memory pages associated with each radio type. Figure 34 shows the pages associated with the VHF communications radios. Figure 33 2B-09-00 Page 4 Nov 15/02 DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS OPERATING MANUAL Figure 34 shows the pages associated with the VHF navigation radios. Figure 34 Figure 35 shows the pages associated with the TCAS/transponder subsystem Figure 35 DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS 2B-09-00 Page 5 Nov 15/02 OPERATING MANUAL Figure 36 shows the arrangement of pages associated with the high--frequency (HF) communications radios. Figure 36 2B-09-00 Page 6 Nov 15/02 DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS OPERATING MANUAL Figure 37 shows the page associated with the automatic direction finder (ADF). Figure 37 DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS 2B-09-00 Page 7 Nov 15/02 OPERATING MANUAL Figure 38 shows the pages associated with the Microwave Landing System (MLS) receiver. Figure 38 The RADIO MENU is used for manually tuning the radios. Pushing the RADIO key on the MCDU displays the RADIO MENU page 1/2. 2B-09-00 Page 8 Nov 15/02 DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS OPERATING MANUAL 2B-- 09-- 20: BASIC OPERATION In keeping with the titling and numbering conventions used by MCDU functions, each MCDU page is arranged with a centered title at the top and a page number in the upper--right corner. Page numbers are formatted as the current page number (among those with the same page title), a slash ”/”, and the number of pages with the same title. For example, there are two pages entitled ”RADIO,” the first is labeled RADIO 1/2, as shown in Figure 39, and the second RADIO 2/2. The bottom line on each page displays the characters entered on the MCDU keypad and is called the scratchpad. The scratchpad is shared across all MCDU client functions, and is not under the control of the radio tuning function. The text area adjacent to each line select key (LSK) on the MCDU is referred to as a field, and identified by the LSK it is associated with. For example, the active frequency for VHF COM radio 1 (shown as COM1, 123.200) on the RADIO 1/2 page is in field 1L. Figure 39 DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS 2B-09-00 Page 9 Nov 15/02 OPERATING MANUAL Pushing the NEXT or PREV key when this page is displayed displays the RADIO MENU page 2/2, shown in Figure 40. Figure 40 When the scratchpad is empty, pushing a line select key either moves the format cursor to the adjacent field, or performs the function indicated by the icon that appears near the key. The icons and their functions are described below. ”Swap” frequencies. This symbol indicates that exchanges between the active and preset frequencies for the associated radio can be made. This has the effect of saving the currently active frequency in the preset memory, and tuning the radio to the frequency previously stored as the preset. Page indicator. When this icon is displayed, pushing the adjacent LSK changes the display to another page. The page to be displayed is either labeled explicitly or it is a detail page for the radio in the associated field. 2B-09-00 Page 10 Nov 15/02 DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS OPERATING MANUAL Exclusive selection. This icon is displayed next to a list of mutually exclusive options. Each time the adjacent LSK is pushed, the next options become selected, wrapping around to the first when the last option is reached. The selected value is displayed in the active color (green in this document) and large font, while the other selection are displayed as smaller, white characters. Immediate function. This icon indicates that the function identified in the field will be carried out immediately when the adjacent LSK key is pushed. Copy value. This icon is used on the memory pages to indicate that the frequency highlighted by the format cursor will be copied into the active frequency for the associated radio. Format cursor. The cursor box highlights the value in the currently active field. Tuning curl. This icon indicates that the data value highlighted by the format cursor can be changed by turning the MCDU tuning knob. DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS 2B-09-00 Page 11 Nov 15/02 OPERATING MANUAL If LSK 2R, the second on the right hand side, shown in Figure 41, is pushed, the format cursor and tuning curl move from the 2L field (COM1) to field 2R (COM2). Likewise, pushing LSK 3L moves the format cursor to the active frequency field for VHF NAV 1 radio. Once positioned on a field, turning the tuning knob changes the highlighted frequency. Figure 41 When an icon shown above is displayed next to a line select key, the function denoted by the icon takes precedence over moving the format cursor. For example, pushing LSK 1L exchanges the active and preset frequencies for VHF COM1 radio, without moving the format cursor. Consequently, it is not possible to tune the active frequency for a radio using the tuning knob. The exception to this rule is the case where a preset frequency is not shown for the associated radio. This can happen when a VHF navigation radio is in DME HOLD, which causes the preset frequency to be removed in order to show the separately tuned DME frequency (refer to fields 3L and 4L in Figure 41). 2B-09-00 Page 12 Nov 15/02 DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS OPERATING MANUAL When one or more characters are present in the scratchpad, the icons adjacent to fields that accept text entries are removed to indicate that pushing those LSKs enters the scratchpad data into the field, as shown in Figure 42. Entering the contents of the scratchpad into a field, or manually clearing the scratchpad, restores the icons and the normal functions of the line select keys. Scratchpad entries can be made into any editable field at any time. Making a scratchpad entry into an active frequency field moves the previously active frequency into the preset field for that radio.

These LSKs select the altitude range for TCAS target display. AUTO includes the typical TCAS detection range, while ABOVE and BELOW extend the range in the selected direction. This LSK is used to manually select the air data source used for altitude reporting. This line shows an example of an aircraft equipped with 3 air data sources, although this varies by installation. Pushing this LSK displays the RADIO 1/2 page. This section displays the current flight ID. This can be entered by the crew or it is received from the FMS. 2B-09-00 Page 32 Nov 15/02 DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS OPERATING MANUAL 2B-- 09-- 50: HF COM 1/1 The HF communications detail page, described below, is used to control HF tuning (manually and from memory), HF tuning mode selection, transmit power selection, squelch, and to select the operating mode. The tuning functions work just like the VHF COM selections, but each of the tuning modes that HF radios provide: simplex, split (duplex), emergency, and ITU (channel numbers) is also selectable on this page. The preset field (2L) is not used when the tuning mode is set to split (duplex), because that field is used to display and tune the active receive frequency, while 1L displays the desired transmit frequency. When tuning from the memory field (3L), the active tuning mode is set to match the stored frequency when it is selected. For example, in the figure below, the active tuning mode is ITU, but the selected memory location displayed in 3L is a simplex frequency. Pushing LSK 3L to move the format cursor to the memory field, then pushing LSK 1L to make the memory value active, changes the selected tuning mode from ITU to simplex (with frequency 20950 selected). This section displays and controls the Active frequency or ITU channel number and operating mode. Pushing LSK 1L exchanges the active and preset frequencies (when the format cursor is on field 2L) or copies a frequency stored in memory (when the format cursor is on field 3L) for the selected HF radio. A scratchpad entry into the field replaces the preset frequency with the previous active frequency. This section displays and controls the squelch level selection. The selected level is green. This section displays and controls the transmit power selection. The selected level is green. -DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS 2B-09-00 Page 33 Nov 15/02 OPERATING MANUAL This section displays and controls the HF memory display. This is the default field for the format cursor when the HF 1 or HF 2 pages are displayed. Turning the tuning knob while field 3L is selected cycles through the frequencies stored in memory, by location. This section displays and controls HF COM preset frequency (when in simplex, emergency, or ITU tuning modes) or HF COM receive frequency (when in split tuning mode). The preset feature is not available when in split mode. This section displays the HF MEMORY 1/2 page. This section contains Active frequency mode. The LSK can be used to select simplex, split (duplex), emergency, and ITU tuning modes. The receive frequency is stored for the selected memory location when the memory contains a split frequency. Pushing this LSK displays the RADIO 1/2 page. This LSK is used to select the operating mode: upper sideband voice (UV), lower sideband voice (LV), amplitude modulated (AM). upper sideband data (UD), lower sideband data (LD) and continuous wave (CW). 2B-09-00 Page 34 Nov 15/02 DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS OPERATING MANUAL 1. HF MEMORY 1/2 The HF MEMORY 1/2 and 2/2 pages, described below (HF MEMORY 1/2 only), work like the VHF COM and VHF NAV memory pages, but have a slightly different appearance due to the need to support two line frequency displays (for split mode tuning). As a result, space limitations do not allow assigning labels to HF memory locations. This should not be a problem since HF is generally used while trans--oceanic and in remote areas where the frequencies to be used are different for each flight. The HF memory pages each contain the active HF frequency, six stored frequencies, and controls for changing the tuning and operating modes for each memory. Access to HF MEMORY 2/2 is via the NEXT or PREV function keys. DIGITAL AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS 2B-09-00 Page 35 Nov 15/02 OPERATING MANUAL These areas display and control stored HF COM memories 1--3 (7--9 on HF MEMORY 2/2). When a memory field contains a split frequency pair, the first push of the associated line select key moves the format cursor to the first frequency, the second push moves it to the second frequency field 3L as shown. This LSK displays and controls the Active HF COM frequency on the selected radio (the field title reflects which radio was selected). Pushing LSK 1L copies the field containing the format cursor into the active frequency and moves the previously active frequency into the preset field (not shown on this page). A scratchpad entry into the field replaces the preset frequency with the previous active frequency. This section is used to select Operating mode for the frequency highlighted by the format cursor.
