This Pilot’s Guide is for the
AlliedSignal Commercial Avionics
Systems (CAS) Flat Panel Active
Matrix LCD version of the 5ATI
Attitude Director Indicator (ADI)
and Horizontal Situation Indicator
(HSI) retrofitted into various aircraft types (e.g. DC-10, B727,
etc.).
Throughout this document, the
terms “ADI” and “HSI” are used to
identify the two primary functions
of the indicator even though the
indicator itself is more correctly
identified as an EADI/EHSI
(Electronic ADI or HSI).
The intended use of the ADI/HSI
FPI is to display the aircraft's primary attitude (ADI) and to display
course, heading, glideslope, etc.
(HSI). The indicator replaces
electromechanical ADI and HSI
indicators with Active Matrix LCD
technology. A single indicator
(herein referred to as the
"ADI/HSI") can provide the capability to function as either an
Attitude Direction Indicator (ADI)
or a Horizontal Situation Indicator
(HSI) depending on configuration
strap settings.

Typical EHSI Display
Reversionary mode capability is also provided so that during normal
operation, in the event of a failed ADI or HSI, the other FPI has the
capability to assume the function of both in the “Integrate” mode.
Reversionary mode data is hard wired into each ADI and HSI as
much as possible. Reversionary mode is discussed in more detail
later in this document.

Introduction

1.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The indicator is designed for high reliability through the use of ASICs
and optimized mechanical packaging. The display is a flat panel
active matrix LCD with backlighting provided by a cold cathode fluorescent lamp.
A Graphics Processor (GP) module produces flight instrument symbology on the LCD display. The Interface Processor (IP) and I/O
modules consists of a 32 bit microprocessor, ARINC 429 interface
capability, and analog/discrete interface capability. These modules
process all of the control inputs from the indicator's front bezel/controls, external ARINC 429 input data, external discrete data (includes
superflags), synchro and analog data, and provides the interface to
the GP module. The Low Voltage Power Supply (LVPS) provides the
necessary power to all of the system’s components, while the High
Voltage Power Supply (HVPS) provides power for the cold cathode
lamp. Dimming circuitry is provided to control the lamp's brightness.
The heaters (LCD and lamp) are activated when the unit is not at the
proper operational temperature due to cold ambient conditions.
1.2 INTERNAL MONITORING
The EADI and EHSI FPDs monitor the safety and integrity of the system operation and isolate and annunciate failures as necessary.
Additional monitors provide fault isolation capability to isolate faults to
the SRU level. Loss of power to the indicator results in a completely
blank indicator. Failures that result in display of misleading information also results in a completely blank indicator. Failure conditions
due to input data failures, indicator failure, or indicator interface failures result in annunciating the appropriate failure message on the
indicator. All ADI and HSI failure warning flags are annunciated as
black text in a red box. All caution flags are annunciated as black text
in a yellow box.
Each 5ATI flat panel display contains an Interface Processor (IP) and
a Graphics Processor (GP). The IP contains built-in-test functions
that monitor the display’s “health” on a continuous basis. Detected
failures result in either annunciation to the flight crew that a display
failure exists or flagging the appropriate display data. Detected failures are also logged in non-volatile memory for retrieval later.

The Graphics Processor communicates with the IP via a host interface and dual port memory. The GP executes its own BIT independent of the IP to determine its own health status. The GP also acts
as an independent monitor of the IP and the IP independently monitors the GP. If the GP detects an IP failure, it shall independently display to the flight crew a fail status message “DU FAIL”.
Integrity of displayed data is verified using two separate functions.
First, random pixels in unused portions of the LCD are driven by the
Graphics Engine and the pixel location and color are wrapped back
around and compared with the bit map of the display. Miscompares
result in displaying “DU FAIL”. Second, the IP selects a portion of the
display for monitoring by instructing the GP to return a small window
of pixels. In the case where pitch data is monitored the horizon line is
captured and the pixel data reconstituted by the IP to verify that the
correct pitch attitude was displayed. This monitoring provides an endto-end wrap around verification of displayed critical data.
Introduction
1.3 ADI/HSI FUNCTION MONITORING
Critical input data consisting of the synchro inputs of pitch, roll, and
heading are monitored for the following conditions and a failure flag is
displayed if any of these conditions exists:
1. Invalid display data or displaying misleading data.
2. Synchro input data outside “reasonable” window.
3. External data valid signal indicates "invalid".
All other input data with an associated valid signal is not used when
the data valid signal indicates “invalid”. Data in this category
includes: Course deviation, glideslope deviation, localizer deviation,
radio altitude, speed command, rate of turn, and INS/DME distance.

3.1 EADI DISPLAYS
3.1.1 PITCH ATTITUDE
A moving white simulated horizon
line rotates angularly with the roll
of the aircraft and moves up and
down with pitch of the aircraft.
Blue sky above the horizon and
black ground below the horizon
align with the horizon line as it follows the aircraft's pitch and roll.
Pitch scale reference marks
extend above and below the horizon line indicating 2.5° increments within ±30° of the horizon
line and 20° increments from 40°
to 80° from the horizon line.
Red excessive pitch chevrons are provided between 40° and 90°
pitch up (on the sky background) and between 30° and 90° pitch
down (on the ground background).
Figure 3.1-1

the aircraft are displayed by the relationship of the fixed symbolic aircraft and the movable horizon. The symbolic aircraft is flown to satisfy
the command cues of the flight director.
3.1.4 SPLIT CUE FLIGHT DIRECTOR
The split cue flight director is represented
by vertical and horizontal magenta bars in
the center of the EADI display about the
fixed aircraft symbol. The command bars
appear to move in front of the yellow aircraft symbol but behind the black dot. The
horizontal bar provides pitch commands
and the vertical bar provides roll commands. The bars are independently driven
and can indicate pitch only, roll only, or

combined pitch and roll commands. The flight director commands are
satisfied by flying the center black dot of the symbolic aircraft to the
intersection of the flight director command bars. The selection of the
same flight director computer by both Captain and First Officer is
annunciated by an “FD” (black text in a yellow circle). The annunciator and the command bars are removed from the display when the
flight director mode is not active.
The decrab symbol is presented as a white “V” above the symbolic
aircraft. The decrab symbol slides left or right along the wings of the
symbolic aircraft to indicate the rudder command.

HDGLoss of Compass or Heading Valid. The digital heading is
removed from the display, but the compass card remains
on the display. See Special Considerations section.
NAVLoss of Course Deviation Valid. The deviation bar and
or VORscale are removed from the display. The to/from arrow is
or ILSalso removed from the display if the navigation source is
NAV or VOR.
GSLoss of Glideslope Valid during ILS Approach mode. The
glideslope scale and pointer are removed from the display.
An additional annunciation of
“ALERT” is provided when an
INS waypoint is approached.
A red “X” annunciation in the
yellow cross-side failure box
indicates that the cross-side
status has not been received
for at least two seconds. All
HSI failure flags flash for four
to six seconds upon initial display, then become steady
indications.
NOTE: The only cross-side
failure annunciated by a normal HSI (Integrate mode not
active) is the red “X” indicating the loss of cross-side
HSI Sensor Failure Annunciation
information. With Integrate mode active, an HSI will display the same
cross-side failure information provided by an ADI.

3.3 INTEGRATE MODE
The EADI and the EHSI both can
provide the Integrated display as
a reversionary mode, and the
integrated display is identical on
either an ADI or HSI. The ADI
and HSI display functions are the
same as they would be on an ADI
or HSI alone, except that the rate
of turn display and the rising runway are not displayed, and the
to/from pointer is duplicated on
both sides of the symbolic aircraft. Off scale symbols (heading
bug and course pointer) are displayed as in the ARC HSI mode.
On a display configured as an
ADI, a pitch value of more than 23 degrees up or down will result in
the display reverting to the ADI presentation. The display will not
automatically return to Integrate mode when pitch value is reduced to
less than 23 degrees. The Integrate mode must be manually reselected. On a display configured as an HSI, pitch value does not
cause the display to revert to HSI mode.

3.3.1 INTEGRATE MODE FAILURE ANNUNCIATIONS
External failures are annumciated in the same way as on
the ADI and HSI, except
“RWY” and “R/T”, because
the rising runway and the rate

Special Considerations
4. SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
4.1 NAVIGATION SOURCE COMBINATIONS
During approach mode (a valid ILS frequency selected), a normal
EADI will display a glideslope scale with pointer and a rising runway.
When displayed, the glideslope pointer position is always determined
by the on-side glideslope receiver. The lateral position of the runway
is always determined by the on-side localizer and the vertical position of the runway is always determined by the on-side radio altimeter. Cross-side and other sensors are never used, therefore there is
no need to identify these sensor sources. During enroute mode (a
valid ILS frequency is not selected) the glideslope scale and runway
symbol are removed from the EADI display.
The navigation sources used to position the course deviation bar on
the EHSI are identified since three sources are possible. INS is
annunciated as “NAV”, VOR is annunciated as “VOR” and localizer is
annunciated as “ILS”. The glideslope scale with pointer position
determined by the glideslope receiver is also displayed when the
course deviation bar is driven by the localizer receiver and “ILS” is
annunciated as the navigation source. The glideslope scale and
pointer are removed from display on the EHSI when the selected
sensor is “VOR” or “NAV”.
When Integrate mode is selected on an EADI, the navigation source
used to position the course deviation bar on the integrated display will
match that selected for use on the associated EHSI. These navigation sources are identified with the same annunciations used on the
EHSI.
Some aircraft installations allow independent selection of navigation
sensors for the EADI and EHSI. This can result in unexpected combinations of sensors between the two displays and also on a single
EADI display with the Integrate mode selected. For example, the
presence of a glideslope scale and pointer on an EADI in Integrate
mode does not insure that the course deviation bar on the same display is driven by the localizer. The actual navigation source of lateral
deviation may be NAV, VOR or ILS as selected for the EHSI. The
correct navigation source is annunciated in all cases and must be
used to avoid confusion. All the possible combinations are shown in
the following figures.

Special Considerations
4.2 HEADING FAILURE
Invalid heading is indicated by replacing the digital heading readout
with a red “HDG” flag. The compass card will continue to be displayed and will rotate in response to the heading signal received by
the EHSI. If the heading signal is not received by the EHSI, the compass card will freeze at the last valid value for heading and the “HDG”
flag will be in view.
When the “HDG” flag is displayed, the positions of the selected heading bug and selected course arrow should not be trusted. This is
because heading is used to generate the selected heading and
selected course signals received by the EHSI, and the validity of
heading at that location (outside the EHSI) is unknown.

4.3 SELECTED COURSE FAILURE
If selected course is not received by the EHSI, the selected course
arrow head and tail are removed from the display and the course
deviation scale is fixed in a horizontal position (selected course
defaults to aircraft heading). The to/from arrow will continue to be displayed if the to/from signal is still received from the selected navigation source. The to/from arrow and course deviation may be incorrect
since the selected course used by the navigation source (if any) is
unknown.

5. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Consult Aircraft Flight Manual Supplement for specific procedures
and limitations in operation.
5.1 START UP
When power is initially applied to
the EADI/EHSI system, various
flags may be annunciated on the
displays, representing systems
not yet operational. If all flags do
not clear, then recheck the
annunciated system.
Adjust brightness control on the
EADI and EHSI to desired brightness.
5.2 SELF TEST
Performing the Self Test is not

required at any time. If a failure was to occur or exist, the failure
would be annunciated. This test is intended to familiarize the operator
with the various flagging methodology used and a quick check for
proper color presentation.
Self Test is inhibited during ILS mode if both glideslope and localizer
are valid.
