6 ACARS Operation
The Aircraft Communication Addressing and Reporting System is a digital Datalink system for
transmission of short, relatively simple messages between aircraft and ground stations via radio or
satellite.
ACARS operation is an option on the Dlink+ w/CPDLC. If the option has not been enabled the menus
and functions, detailed in this document, will not be available to the user.
6.1
Start up
To begin using the ACARS system, assuming the system has been configured with the proper service
providers, frequency lists, and aircraft identification, it is necessary to enter in some basic information
about the flight.
Refer to the Main – Flight Information Menu section for a visual representation of the menus and an
explanation of the data contained within.
6.1.1 Entering the Flight Number
The flight number is a required data item used as an aid in identifying your aircraft to the various
operation and maintenance centers.
The flight number will consist of 1-4 numeric characters.
The flight number may be entered manually or may be collected from available aircraft information
broadcasted over the ARINC 429 busses and populated automatically.
6.1.2 Entering Origin and Destination Stations
The origin and destination stations consist of 4 alpha characters. The origin and destinations may be
entered manually or may be collected from available aircraft information broadcasted over the ARINC 429
busses and populated automatically.
6.2
Sending a Message
Pressing the ACARS function key will bring you directly to the ACARS Index Menu. (see: Figure
3.12.13-1 ACARS Index Menu). From the menu index follow the prompts to the desired message type.
Refer to ACARS Menus for specific details.
6.2.1 Requirements for Sending a Message
In order to facilitate sending an ACARS messages there must exist a link to the ground through a service
provider. When there is no established link the Dlink+ w/CPDLC will report “NO COMM” in the advisory
area of the display. The COMM Status may be viewed by pressing the READ Function key. This will
display the Monitor Menu, showing the COMM Status and the states of various services (VHF, Satcom,
and ATN).
6.3
Reading Received Messages
When an ACARS message is received the ACARS annunciator will be lit. At this point pressing the MSG
function key will display the Message Log Menu (see ACARS Index – Message Log Menu). Navigate to
the particular message to be viewed and press the LSK indicated. Refer to (ACARS Index – Message
Log Viewing Menu).

7 CPDLC Operation
7.1 CPDLC Menus
7.1.1 CPDLC – Index Menu
The CPDLC INDEX Menu is the primary interface for CPDLC Operation. From this menu, access is
provided to the CM Logon Menu (see Section7.1.3), the Request Menu (see Section 7.1.5), the Message
Log Menu (see Section 7.1.4), the Report Menu (see Section 7.1.13), and the Free Text Menu (see
Section 7.1.2). When configuring any of the possible messages on these menus all required fields must
be filled in to get a VERIFY Prompt, This VERIFY Prompt will only be displayed when all required fields
have been configured. The fields required will vary depending on the message being configured. This is
talked about more specifically in the sections that follow for each type of message that can be configured
through sub-menus of the CPDLC INDEX Menu.
In addition to providing basic access to other CPDLC Menus, the operator is provided with the option to
change the ATN Operational Mode. The ‘ATN Mode’ can be configured to RTCA DO280B or Link 2000.
When configured for RTCA DO280B operation, most of the RTCA DO280B defined message set is
available for use. When configured for Link2000 Operational mode, the available message set (both
uplink and downlink) is limited to those messages supported in the European Link 2000 environment (see
Sections 7.3.1 and 7.3.2).
The ATN Mode may be toggled between Link 2000 and RTCA DO280B by selecting the L1 Line Select
Key on the B-Page of the CPDLC INDEX Menu.

7.1.2 CPDLC – Free Text Menu
The FREE TEXT Menu allows entry of a free text message that may be down-linked to ATC. Up to 256
characters are permitted in the free text message. Entries are displayed on lines 1-5. When all 5 lines
have been used on the first page a second FREE TEXT page becomes available. If all of the space on
the second FREE TEXT page has been used, then a third FREE TEXT page becomes available. The
third FREE TEXT page will accept just one line of text, limited to 16 characters. These last 16 characters
result in a maximum of a 256 character Free Text message being available if each preceding line is
completely filled.

7.1.3 CPDLC – CM Logon Menu
The CM (Context Management) LOGON Menu provides an interface that may be used to initiate a CM
Logon to the End System of an Air Traffic Control (ATC) authority. This action results in the transfer of
information regarding various data link capabilities between the ground and the airborne systems and in
general makes the ATN Network aware of the aircrafts presence and its ability to support ATN.
A CM Logon is usually a prerequisite to establishing a CPDLC connection with ATC. Usually this would
be performed prior to departure. Under some circumstances, the CM connection can be initiated by the
ground using a Contact Request when ATC is already aware of an Aircrafts presence and capabilities,
but this is not the normal way in which CM is established. For instance, if a manual CM logon has been
performed at some point, the ATN Network will have been made aware of the aircraft network address
and its data link capabilities. At some future point in time, a second facility may issue a Contact Request
to the aircraft from the current facility directing Dlink+ w/CPDLC to contact it. When this happens, the CM
function will automatically send a CM-Logon Request to the new station. If a valid CM-Logon response is
received from that new station, a CM Logon will exist with the new facility. The only indication of this
happening will be the Facility ID changing on the CM Logon page to the Facility ID contained in the
Contact Request (see 7.1.3).
This menu may also be used to log off of CM. It also provides access to view the current status when
viewing page B of the CM Logon Menu. The status is set to INACTIVE when CM is not logged on and as
ACTIVE when CM is logged on.
The Logon Prompt appears in R2 of the B Menu when all prerequisites to perform a CM Logon have
been met. In order for the CM Logon Prompt to appear, the following conditions must be satisfied:
1. There must be an active connection to the ATN Network. This can be checked from the Monitor Menu
by pressing the USER Function Key then the R2 Line Select Key and then the L1 Line Select Key
(See section 3.4.1).
2. A valid ‘FACILITY ID’, ‘ORIGIN’, ‘CALL SIGN, and ‘DESTINATION must be entered into the CM
Logon Menu.
NOTE: Entry of data into Departure Time and Departure Date fields is optional in a sense. If the above
conditions are met, a CM Logon prompt will appear in R2 of the B Menu even if this information is
not present. However, if entry is made into one of these fields, then both the DEPART TIME and
DEPART DATE fields must be provided. A CM Logon prompt will not appear if entry is made into
one field and not the other.
Besides providing the CM Logon prompt in R2 and a means to return to the CPDLC Index Menu in L3,
the B Menu provides status information and the ability to Inhibit CPDLC.
The Current Data Authority is displayed in L1. This status defines the active ATC Center that has current
responsibility for CPDLC communication with the aircraft. All commands to the aircraft or requests from
the aircraft are processed by this data authority. No pilot action is required to obtain the Current Data
Authority as this is controlled by the ground.
The Next Data Authority is displayed in L2. This is the next ATC Center that will assume responsibility for
CPDLC communication with the aircraft after communication has ended with the Current Data Authority.
There may not always be a Next Data Authority, but when there is, its existence is controlled by the
ground. No pilot action is required in regard to the Next Data Authority with the possible exception of
action required when switching between data authorities which is directed by specific CPDLC messages
(see Section ?).
The STATUS displayed in R1. This is the CM connection status, not the CPDLC connection status. An
active CM connection is required for CPDLC use. Without a CM connection access is limited. If there is
an active CM connection the status will be set to ACTIVE. Otherwise the status will be INACTIVE.
CPDLC Communication may be inhibited by the Pilot. This option is made available and displayed in R3.
CPDLC is automatically inhibited until a CM connection has been established. After the CM status
changes to ACTIVE in R1, CPDLC can be inhibited by selecting R3.
When CPDLC is inhibited by selecting R3, the CM connection is aborted. If the operator later performs a
manual CM Logon, the assumption is made that this is done for the sole intention of establishing CPDLC
(since that is the only ATN application available to him at this time). As a result, the action to log onto CM
will automatically un-inhibits CPDLC.
Document Number: UG-14114
Rev. -
Page 109 of 201
Dlink+CPDLC Users Guide
If the ground issues a contact request while CPDLC is inhibited, the CM application will honor the contact
request and log onto the respective ground station (if it is not a blind contact request, see below).
However, in this case, CPDLC will stay inhibited because the operator has not yet provided permission or
any indication that he is willing to allow a CPDLC session. If the ground later attempts to sends a CPDLC
start request, Dlink+ w/CPDLC will reject the start request and provide a message to ATC that the crew
has inhibited CPDLC. No pilot action is required for this.
In some cases, the ATN Network may have knowledge that an aircraft is in the network from a previous
CM Logon. If the ground sends a contact request following power up, and no CM Station was previously
logged onto, this is termed a blind contact, and it will not result in a automatic CM Logon. In this case, the
information for the end system which contacted the aircraft will be displayed on the CM Logon page and it
is up to the operator to press the Logon prompt in order to perform the CM Logon.

There are two ways that messages in the message log can be cleared. The first happens automatically
10 minutes after the flight is complete and the plane has landed. This clears all messages in the
message log. The second is done manually. To delete messages manually the left-hand line select keys
are used after pressing the clear function key to enter clear into the scratch pad. Selecting the left-hand
line select key that corresponds to a particular message when clear is in the scratch pad will clear the
message when the message status is not NEW, OPEN or SENDING. The message status must be
ACCEPTED, REJECTED, CLOSED or ABORTED in order to clear a message. This ensures that a
message has been reviewed and responded to (if needed) prior to its removal from the log.

The MONITORING Menu provides a means to notify ATC that the radios have been tuned to the
assigned unit and frequency. An example of the use of this page may be: when receiving an uplink that
requests a unit/frequency change, the operator responds with a “WILCO” and sets the radios as
assigned. Then the operator may send a separate message from the MONITORING page indicating that
they have complied with the request. The content and operational features of this menu are identical,
regardless of the ATN Operational Mode.

7.2 CPDLC Operational Scenario
7.2.1 CM Logon
Say the operator is on the ground and wishes to perform a CM logon. First, the operator will have to
navigate to the ‘CM LOGON’ menu press the ‘CPDLC’ menu key and then select ‘CM LOGON’ by
pressing the L3 menu key. See Figure 7.2.1-1
Figure 7.2.1-1 CM LOGON Menu
The operator then enters a Facility ID, Call Sign, Origin, and Destination on the A-Page in order to have
access to the ‘LOGON’ prompt found on the B-Page. A Depart Date and Time is not required to get the
‘LOGON’ prompt. However, if a Date is entered a Time must be entered (and vice versa) in order for the
LOGON prompt to appear. The menu with all required fields filled in is in Figure 7.2.1-2

7.2.5 Change of Current Data Center
In order for the Next Data Authority ( LFRR in the example ) to become the Current Data Authority it must
first send a Start Request, the Current Data Authority (EBBU in the example) must then send an End
Request containing the facility designation of the Next Data Authority. Then the operator would be able to
view and respond to a contact request in the CPDLC message log from the Next Data Authority. If the
operator choose to respond to this request with a WILCO the Next Data Authority would become the
Current Data Authority. Figure 7.2.5-1 shows the contact request after the operator has responded with
a WILCO to accept the Contact Request from the new station:
Figure 7.2.5-1 MESSAGE LOG Menu
The steps that should be taken to do this will be to navigate to the CPDLC message log, select the
contact request from the Next Data Authority by pressing the Line Select Key that corresponds to the

Select Key on the B-Page of the message review, then pressing the L2 Line Select Key on the Response
Menu to select WILCO for a response type if the operator wishes to accept the Contact Request. Then
the operator would send the response by navigating to the B-Page of the Message Response Menu and
