2 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

2.1 GENERAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

The purpose for the Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System (EGPWS) is to help prevent accidents caused by Controlled Flight Into Terrain (CFIT), obstacles, or severe windshear. The Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning Computer (EGPWC) accepts a variety of aircraft sensors and system inputs and applies alerting algorithms to provide the flight crew with aural messages and visual annunciations when the boundaries of alerting envelopes are exceeded. A graphic depiction of terrain and obstacles within the range selected on an EFIS or Weather Radar display may be configured for enhanced situational awareness with respect to terrain and obstacles. provides an overall system block diagram.
Figure 2-1
Figure 2-1: Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System
The EGPWS is comprised of the following:
Aircraft sensors and systems providing input signals
The Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning Computer (EGPWC)
Flight deck audio systems (speaker and interphone)
Alert lamps and/or EFIS or EICAS displays (for alert and system status messages)
EFIS Navigation Display (ND), Multi-Function Display (MFD), or Weather Radar Indicator for display of terrain
Switching relay(s) when required for switching display inputs from weather display to terrain display
GPS antenna for direct connection to EGPWC with internal GPS sensors

EGPWS LINE MAINTENANCE MANUAL

2.1.1 ENHANCED GROUND PROXIMITY WARNING COMPUTER (EGPWC)

All EGPWS functions are processed by a single Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) called the Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning Computer (EGPWC).
The MK V and MK VII EGPWC are digitally controlled computers housed in a 2 MCU ARINC 600-6 form factor chassis intended for Air Transport type aircraft. Installation configuration is defined by program pin strapping in the aircraft.
The MK VI and MK VIII EGPWC are digitally controlled computers housed in a non-ARINC form factor chassis intended for Business and General Aviation and Regional Turboprop type aircraft. These models have fewer interface and functional options. The installation configuration is defined in a programmed Configuration Module installed in the aircraft.
The MK XXII EGPWC is a digitally controlled computer housed in a non-ARINC form factor chassis intended for various rotorcraft. Similar to the MK VI and MK VIII EGPWC, this model has fewer interface and functional options. The installation configuration is defined in a programmed Configuration Module installed in the helicopter.
The EGPWC receives information in AC, DC, discrete, and synchro analog formats, and RS-232, RS-422, ARINC 429 or ARINC 575 digital formats. Discrete signals can be either ground or +28V discretes. The EGPWC provides discrete, audio and ARINC 429 outputs for alerts and system status, and video (ARINC 453/708) for terrain display. The EGPWC is rack mounted and does not require any forced air cooling when operated within the normal operating temperature range given in the Table 1-1.

2.2 OPERATION

2.2.1 MODE 1 – EXCESSIVE DESCENT RATE

Mode 1 provides audio and visual alerts for excessive descent rates into terrain. When the EGPWS caution alert envelope is penetrated, the message “SINKRATE” is enunciated and EGPWS alert lights illuminate. Continuing the excessive descent rate into the EGPWS warning alert envelope results in a “PULL-UP” enunciation and EGPWS alert lights illuminated. Mode 1 is desensitized to eliminate unwanted (nuisance) alerts when the EGPWS determines that the aircraft is above a Glideslope beam. In some fixed-wing applications, Mode 1 is also desensitized when Steep Approach or Flap Override is active. In helicopter applications, Mode 1 is disabled when autorotation is detected.

2.2.2 MODE 2A/2B - TERRAIN CLOSURE RATE

Mode 2 provides audio and visual alerts for dangerously high terrain closure rates. Two sub-modes, referred to as Mode 2A and 2B, are defined. Mode 2A is active when flaps are not in the landing position and the aircraft is not on an ILS approach within ± 2 dots of glideslope center. Mode 2B is active when the flaps are in the landing position or while on an ILS approach within ± 2 dots of glideslope deviation. When the caution alert envelope is penetrated, the message “TERRAIN, TERRAIN” is enunciated and EGPWS alert lights illuminate. Continuing the high terrain closure rate into the warning alert envelope results in a “PULL-UP” enunciation and EGPWS alert lights illuminated.

2.2.3 MODE 3 - DESCENT AFTER TAKEOFF

Mode 3 provides audio and visual alerts for excessive altitude loss after takeoff, or after a go-around from below 245 feet above ground level (AGL), when flaps and gear are not in the landing configuration. Penetrating the Mode 3 alert envelope causes the voice message “DON’T SINK, DON’T SINK” and illumination of EGPWS alert lights.

2.2.4 MODE 4A/4B/4C - UNSAFE TERRAIN CLEARANCE

Mode 4 provides audio and visual alerts for unsafe terrain clearance with respect to phase of flight, height above ground, and speed. Three sub-modes, referred to as Mode 4A, 4B, and 4C, are defined. Mode 4A is active during cruise and approach with landing gear up. Mode 4B is active during cruise and approach with landing gear down and flaps up. Mode 4C is active during takeoff when either gear or flaps are not in the landing configuration. The aural enunciations for Mode 4A are “TOO LOW TERRAIN” or “TOO LOW GEAR” depending on airspeed. Mode 4B

provides “TOO LOW TERRAIN” or “TOO LOW FLAPS” depending on airspeed. Mode 4C provides “TOO LOW TERRAIN”. EGPWS alert lights are illuminated during these alerts.

2.2.5 MODE 5 - DESCENT BELOW GLIDESLOPE

Mode 5 provides audio and visual alerts for excessive glideslope deviation when the aircraft descends below the glideslope beam on front-course ILS approaches. Two levels of alerting are provided. If the aircraft is below 1000 feet AGL and gets to or exceeds 1.3 dots glideslope deviation (fly-up), a ‘soft’ (reduced volume) “GLIDESLOPE” is enunciated. Exceeding 2 dots below 300 feet AGL provides a hard (full volume) “GLIDESLOPE” enunciation. EGPWS alert lights are illuminated during these alerts.

2.2.6 MODE 6 - ADVISORY CALLOUTS (OPTIONAL)

The EGPWC can be programmed to enunciate Mode 6 Advisory Callouts based on menu selectable options. Mode 6 includes Altitude Awareness, Minimums/Approaching Minimums, and Bank Angle type callouts as defined for each EGPWS model (refer to an applicable Interface Control Document or Installation Design Guide). The menu selected Advisory Callouts are defined and enabled in the installation configuration. If Altitude Callouts are not enabled, only (DH based) “MINIMUMS” callouts will be provided. The MK XXII offers a tail strike advisory for helicopters.
Only aural callouts are provided for Mode 6. EGPWS alert lights are NOT illuminated for Mode 6 callouts. The following table identifies all of the Mode 6 Callouts that are available and the applicability to each model.

EGPWS LINE MAINTENANCE MANUAL
2.2.6.1 EXCESSIVE BANK ANGLE CALLOUT
The Bank Angle Callout feature provides callout enunciation for excessive bank angles based on altitude and bank angle limits defined by aircraft type. It is intended to enhance situational awareness during intentional or unintentional maneuvering, and for protection against wing or engine strikes when close to the runway.
When the bank angle limit is reached, the aural callout “BANK ANGLE, BANK ANGLE” is given. Follow-on aural messages are only provided when the aircraft roll angle increases an additional 20% from the previous callout. Bank Angle Callouts are enabled by the installation configuration.
2.2.6.2 TAIL STRIKE CALLOUT
A tail strike alert function is provided by the MK XXII for applicable rotary wing aircraft based upon Radio Altitude, Pitch Attitude, Pitch Rate and Barometric Altitude Rate. The voice message “Tail Too Low “ is provided continuously while within the alert boundary. Unique alert boundaries are provided for applicable aircraft types.

2.2.7 MODE 7 - WINDSHEAR DETECTION (OPTIONAL FOR MK V/VII ONLY)

Mode 7 provides the flight crew with visual and aural alerts for windshear of sufficient magnitude to be potentially hazardous to the aircraft. The system is capable of detecting severe decreasing performance shears (i.e. increasing tailwind/decreasing headwind and/or downdraft) which present an immediate danger to the aircraft. The system is also capable of detecting severe increasing performance shears (increasing headwind/decreasing tailwind and/or up draft). While these shears may not present an immediate danger to the aircraft, these shears can indicate that the atmospheric instability is such that an encounter with a severe decreasing performance shear is likely.
A detected increasing performance shear will result in an aural “CAUTION WINDSHEAR” enunciation and cockpit light annunciation when enabled. A detected decreasing performance shear will result in an aural siren followed by “WINDSHEAR, WINDSHEAR, WINDSHEAR” with a corresponding cockpit warning light annunciation.

2.2.8 ENVELOPE MODULATION (NOT AVAILABLE IN MK VI/VIII -001)

Envelope Modulation provides improved alert protection and expanded alerting margins at identified key locations throughout the world. Due to terrain features at or near certain specific airports, normal operations have resulted in nuisance or missed alerts at these locations in the past. With the introduction of accurate position information and a terrain and airport database, it is now possible to identify these areas and adjust the normal alerting process to compensate for the condition.
Modes 4, 5, and 6 are expanded at certain locations to provide alerting protection consistent with normal approaches. Modes 1, 2, and 4 are desensitized at other locations to prevent nuisance alerts that result from unusual terrain or approach procedures. In all cases, very specific information is used to correlate the aircraft position and phase of flight prior to modulating the envelopes. This function is automatic and transparent to crew operation.

2.2.9 TERRAIN CLEARANCE FLOOR AND RUNWAY FIELD CLEARANCE FLOOR

The Terrain Clearance Floor (TCF) alerting function adds an additional element of protection to the standard Ground Proximity Warning System for fixed-wing aircraft. It creates an increasing terrain clearance envelope around the airport runway to provide CFIT protection against situations where Mode 4 provides limited or no protection. TCF alerts are based on current aircraft location, destination runway center point position, and Radio Altitude (altitude AGL). TCF is active during takeoff, cruise, and final approach. TCF complements the existing Mode 4 protection by providing an alert based on insufficient terrain clearance even when in landing configuration.
The TCF function is enhanced in all fixed-wing models (beginning with release –210-210 for the MK V/VII) with the addition of a Runway Field Clearance Floor (RFCF) alerting function. RFCF is based on current aircraft location, destination runway center point position, and Geometric Altitude or altitude Above Sea Level (ASL) relative to the destination runway. RFCF provides short landing protection for runways that are significantly higher than the surrounding terrain.
CAGE CODE: 97896 SCALE: NONE SIZE: A DWG NO.: 060-4199-180 REV: G SHEET 14 of 68
EGPWS LINE MAINTENANCE MANUAL
When an aircraft penetrates either the TCF or the RFCF alert envelope, the aural message “TOO LOW TERRAIN” will occur. This aural message will occur once when initial envelope penetration occurs, and one time thereafter for each 20% degradation in either Altitude (AGL) or Altitude (ASL) depending on which envelope was violated (TCF or RFCF respectively). EGPWS cockpit alert annunciations remain illuminated until the alert envelope is exited. The TCF and RFCF functions are not available in the MK XXII.
2.2.9.1 RUNWAY DATABASE
The EGPWS Runway Database consists of data records for all airport runways offered for the coverage provided by the Terrain Database. For the MK V and MK VII, all hard surface runways in the world 3500 feet or greater in length are supported. For the MK VI, all runways 2000 feet or greater in length within the database region installed are supported. The MK VIII has the ability to select >2000 foot or >3500 foot runway lengths. For the MK XXII, only runways 2000 feet or greater with a published approach procedure are included. The database provides the means of accessing the records of runways closest to the current aircraft position.

2.2.10 TERRAIN ALERTING AND DISPLAY (OPTIONAL)

The Terrain Alerting and Display (TAD) function monitors aircraft position with respect to local database-cataloged terrain to provide rapid audio and visual alerts when a terrain threat is detected. Terrain threats are recognized and annunciated when terrain violates specific computed envelope boundaries forward of the aircraft path. The terrain database also includes obstacles (when and where available) providing similar annunciations when cataloged obstacles violate the same envelope boundaries.
Terrain Alerting outputs (lights and audio) behaves in the same manner as the standard GPWS mode alerts. Either caution or warning alerts will initiate a specific audio alert phrase. The caution aural is “CAUTION TERRAIN” or “CAUTION OBSTACLE” and the warning aural is “TERRAIN, TERRAIN, PULL UP” or “OBSTACLE, OBSTACLE, PULL UP” (minor variations exist).
Complementing the terrain threat alerts, the EGPWS also maintains a synthetic image of local terrain forward of the aircraft for display on EFIS Navigation Displays (ND’s), Multi-Functional Displays (MFD’s), or Weather Radar Indicators. The EGPWS may be configured to automatically de-select the Weather Display and pop-up a display of the terrain threats when they occur. The logic used for these configurable controls also provides an external input for predictive windshear alerts that can override a Terrain Display and revert to the weather display with the corresponding windshear data.
The EGPWS provides up to two optional external displays outputs, each with independent range-scaling control in the same fashion as weather radar with more than one indicator. Changes of range scaling to one display do not affect the other display. Each of these two independent outputs may be used to drive more than one display.
2.2.10.1 TERRAIN AND OBSTACLE DATABASE
The EGPWS Terrain Database is the earth’s surface divided into grid sets and cells referenced to the geographic (latitude/longitude) coordinate system of the World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS-84). Elements of the grid sets include the highest terrain altitude (above MSL) in each cells respective area. Grid sets vary in resolution depending on geographic location. Because the overwhelming majority of “Controlled Flight Into Terrain (CFIT)” accidents occur near an airport, and the fact that aircraft operate in closer proximity to terrain near an airport, higher resolution grids are used around airports. Lower resolution grids are used outside of airport areas where aircraft altitude enroute makes CFIT accidents unlikely and for which detailed terrain features are not important to the flight crew.
Digital Elevation Models (DEM’s) are available for most of the airports around the world today. In cases where data is not currently available, DEM’s are generated from available topographic maps, sectional charts, and airline approach plates. The process of acquiring, generating, assembling, and updating the database is governed by strict configuration controls to insure the highest level of data integrity for generation of the EGPWS Terrain Database.
The EGPWS Terrain Database is organized in a flexible and expandable manner. Using digital compression techniques, the complete database is stored in non-volatile memory within the LRU. Updates and additions are easily accomplished via a PCMCIA card interface.
CAGE CODE: 97896 SCALE: NONE SIZE: A DWG NO.: 060-4199-180 REV: G SHEET 15 of 68
EGPWS LINE MAINTENANCE MANUAL
The Obstacle Database (in MK V and MK VII -204-204 and later, and MK VI, MK VIII and MK XXII) is a separate file included within the terrain database. Both files are loaded into the EGPWS in the terrain database PCMCIA card. The obstacle database is accessed by the EGPWC application software only if obstacle alerting is enabled by installation configuration. The obstacle data is processed by the EGPWS in the same fashion as terrain, and is presented on the display as terrain (uses same coloring scheme).
MK V, MK VII, and MK VIII EGPWS utilize a worldwide Terrain Database. The MK VI EGPWS utilizes a regional Terrain Database consisting of one of the following regions:
the Americas Region (designated “N”) for all of North, Central, and South America,
the Atlantic Region (designated “A”) covering Greenland, Europe, Africa, and Asia,
the Pacific Region (designated “P”) covering Europe, East Africa, Asia, Australia, the Pacific Ocean (to 120W
longitude including most of the US west coast).
The MK XXII utilizes 11 regional databases. For either worldwide or regional Terrain Databases, the Obstacle Database currently covers cataloged obstacles (see Section 1.3) that are 100 feet high or higher. The MK XXII database of obstacles is unique in the inclusion of oil rigs.

2.2.11 PEAKS DISPLAY MODE (OPTIONAL)

As an enhancement to the “standard” EGPWS terrain display, the Peaks Mode (when enabled by the installation configuration) allows terrain below the aircraft to be viewed on the EGPWS terrain display during all phases of flight (for MK V and MK VII -206-206 and later, and MK VI, MK VIII, and MK XXII). At altitudes safely above terrain for the chosen display range, the terrain is displayed independent of aircraft altitude emphasizing the highest and lowest displayed elevations to provide enhanced situational awareness. This can be particularly valuable to the flight crew in case of an unplanned descent or off-route deviation and for previewing terrain prior to or during descent.
The EGPWS terrain display uses colors and shading patterns corresponding to the vertical displacement between terrain elevation and the current altitude of the aircraft. With the “standard” display, terrain more than 2000 feet below the aircraft is not displayed typically leaving the terrain display blank during the enroute portion of flight. The Peaks Mode Display adds additional density patterns and level thresholds based on terrain elevations relative to the range and distribution of terrain in the display area. The Peaks Mode is thus a “merged” display applicable to all phases of flight.
Within the Peaks Mode display, two elevation numbers indicate the highest and lowest terrain currently being displayed. The elevation numbers indicate terrain in hundreds of feet Above Sea Level (ASL). The terrain elevation numbers are displayed with the “highest” terrain number on top, and the “lowest” terrain number beneath it. The “highest” terrain number is shown in the same color as the highest terrain color pattern on the display, and the “lowest” terrain number is shown in the color of the lowest terrain color pattern shown on the display. A single elevation number is displayed when there is no appreciable difference in terrain elevations such as when flying over water (displayed blue on some display systems) or flat terrain. The elevation numbers on the display are also an indication that the terrain display is selected.

2.2.12 GEOMETRIC ALTITUDE (GPS REQUIRED)

Geometric Altitude (for MK V and MK VII -206-206 and later, and MK VI, MK VIII, and MK XXII) is a computed pseudo-Corrected Barometric Altitude (computed altitude “Above Sea Level” - ASL). This is designed to ensure optimal operation of the EGPWS enhanced functions through all phases of flight and atmospheric conditions. Geometric Altitude uses GPS Altitude, an improved pressure altitude calculation, Radio Altitude, and Terrain and Runway elevation data to reduce or eliminate errors potentially induced into Corrected Barometric Altitude by temperature extremes, non-standard altitude conditions, and altimeter miss-sets. Geometric Altitude also allows continuous EGPWS operations in QFE environments without custom inputs or special operational procedures.

2.2.13 WEATHER RADAR AUTOTILT (MK V AND MK VII ONLY)

MK V and MK VII EGPWS (-210-210 and later) provide an automatic Weather Radar tilt angle capability. The Auto­Tilt function uses aircraft altitude above the terrain and the terrain database to generate an optimum tilt angle for the Weather Radar. The Auto-Tilt angle results in minimum ground clutter on the display while maintaining the optimum weather detection capability. With manual tilt control, there can be over-scan where weather cells and terrain are
CAGE CODE: 97896 SCALE: NONE SIZE: A DWG NO.: 060-4199-180 REV: G SHEET 16 of 68
EGPWS LINE MAINTENANCE MANUAL
below the antenna beam scan resulting in a blank display. Alternately, under-scan, where the antennas scan is hitting the ground below the weather cells, results in ground clutter display. The calculated tilt angle is transmitted on the ARINC 429-output bus (labels 061, 062, 063, 064, and 065) for any compatible Weather Radar system. See the appropriate Part Number ICD for complete Label definitions.

2.2.14 SYSTEM DISPLAY AND ANNUNCIATION

In addition to the aural (voice) alerts provided over the cockpit speaker and interphone system, the EGPWS drives cockpit annunciators and/or Electronic Flight Instrument Systems (EFIS) with system status and alert annunciations. For some EFIS displays, the EGPWS is designed to interface and display the EGPWS terrain video as well as alert annunciations directly onto the EFIS without the use of external relays or annunciators. This is referred to as an “integrated” EFIS display. For other displays (some EFIS and all Radar Indicators), the terrain video is relay switched into the display system externally taking the place of weather radar video. In this case, external switching and annunciation is required. This is referred to as a “Bolt-On” display. The interface and display characteristics are defined for each display system and programmed into the EGPWC as part of the configuration software.
Cockpit annunciations can vary somewhat aircraft to aircraft or operator to operator. In addition, several system options are defined by the installation configuration. One of these is EGPWS lamp format. Two formats are provided; Lamp Format 1 and Lamp Format 2. They are described and illustrated in the next page.

2.2.15 RUNWAY AWARENESS AND ADVISORY SYSTEM (OPTION FOR MK V AND MK VII ONLY)

2.3 SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

2.3.1 MAINTENANCE PHILOSOPHY

The EGPWS is an “on-condition” only maintenance system. No scheduled maintenance is required. This is accomplished by both continuous Built-In-Test (BIT) and event initiated test functions. Event initiated test refers to both power-up tests and manually activated Self-Tests. Results of these functions are indicated by system status indicators and messages so that the systems functionality can be assessed.
Detected faults are indicated to the flight crew during normal flight operations by system status annunciators or flight display (EFIS) messages in the cockpit (i.e., GPWS INOP or FAIL, W/S INOP or FAIL, TERR INOP or NOT AVAILABLE). On the ground, system status indications are expanded to direct fault isolation to the fault source whether internal or external to the EGPWC. Several levels of reporting are provided by the EGPWS Self-Test, and multiple means are provided to access the information. The intent is to provide information that will encourage the line mechanic to correct the real problem through clear fault messages and minimal effort.

2.3.2 SYSTEM OPERATION DURING AN INOP CONDITION

EGPWS continued airworthiness is predicated on system status indications. An indication of TERR INOP (only) or NOT AVAILABLE (only) is likely to indicate a loss of necessary GPS data for performing Terrain Alerting and Display functions, but has no effect on basic GPWS (Modes 1-7) functions. Additionally, a GPWS INOP (only) indicates a loss of basic GPWS functions, but this could be limited to say Mode 4 only because of a loss of necessary data required for that mode alone. In any case, the EGPWS will provide alerting based on the current capability of the EGPWC and its inputs.
For the MK VI and MK XXII, consideration should be given to any operation that will cross the boundaries of the regional database. Although this has no affect on the basic GPWS functions, the enhanced (TAD/TCF) functions will become inoperative once the aircraft leaves the database region. This is indicated by the TERR INOP or NOT AVAILABLE status indicator and the loss of terrain display when enabled and active.

2.3.3 BIT DESCRIPTION

The EGPWC contains an extensive BIT capability. The BIT functions provide high confidence that the Warning Computer and interface signal sources are operating properly, and that the EGPWS will perform its intended function. Detected failures are indicated via GPWS INOP, Windshear INOP, and Terrain INOP/NA annunciations and on the ARINC 429 bus output. Failures detected during flight are saved in the flight history and are enunciated during Level 4 of the cockpit Self-Test. BIT status is also available through the RS-232 port by use of a PC or terminal.
If the EGPWC detects an internal Warning Computer fault, it will turn on all the INOP lights. If the EGPWC detects an external input fault, it may or may not turn on the INOP light(s) depending on the input fault, the type of installation, and whether the aircraft is airborne or on the ground.
The EGPWC BIT performs three types of functions: Operation Monitoring, Operation Tests, and Restricted Tests. Operation Monitoring consists of software checks that are performed as part of the normal Warning Computer
processing. Operation Monitoring includes checks of data values and program flow control variables used for the warning computations to ensure they are within expected ranges. The statuses of various EGPWC hardware sub­systems are continuously verified including core processor checks, voice generator circuitry checks, and ARINC 429 wrap-around tests. Operation Monitoring also includes extensive testing of the input signals to ensure the EGPWC is using proper data for its calculations.
Operation Tests run during normal operation without disrupting the EGPWC warning calculations or annunciations. Operations Tests include CPU instruction set tests, A/D tolerance tests, ROM check-sum verification tests, and non­destructive RAM tests. Operation Tests are scheduled by the operating system to be performed between the routines required for normal operation.
Restricted Tests destroy data or take an excessive amount of time to complete and cannot be run during normal system operation. These tests are usually run during system power up or during a cockpit initiated Self-Test.

These tests primarily consist of more thorough hardware checks that would disrupt normal operation if continuously run.

2.3.4 EGPWC FRONT PANEL

To aid in troubleshooting the EGPWS, the front panel of the Warning Computer provides indicators and user interfaces as follows.
2.3.4.1 EGPWS STATUS LED’S
Three LED’s on the EGPWC front panel provide a high level indication of overall system status. These are:
a yellow “External Fault” LED
a green “Computer OK” LED
a red “Computer Fail” LED
The yellow “External Fault” LED indicates that a fault external to the EGPWC exists. The green “Computer OK” LED indicates that the EGPWC is operating correctly with no internal faults. The red “Computer Fail” LED indicates that the EGPWC has an internal fault. Further explanation of internal and external faults is given in Section and Section 3.4.2.
3.4.1
*Useful Tip #1 – The red Computer Fail LED illuminated does not guarantee invalid strapping/wiring (MK V/VII only) to cause the LED to illuminate. Before returning a MK V/VII for repair, bench test the unit with power/ground applied, making sure to ground the parity pin does not illuminate during this bench test, the aircraft wiring is causing the Computer Fail condition.
the EGPWS is failed. It is possible for
. If the red Computer Fail LED
2.3.4.2 FRONT PANEL SELF-TEST INTERFACE (MK V AND MK VII ONLY)
The EGPWC front panel provides a Self-Test switch for activating Self-Test features described in Section 2.3.5. This switch functions the same as cockpit Self-Test switches.
2.3.4.3 AUDIO JACK (MK V AND MK VII ONLY)
The EGPWC front panel provides a headphone jack for use during Self-Test. The audio jack is a standard 600Ω monophonic audio output compatible with a standard 2-connector ¼" audio plug headphones.
2.3.4.4 FRONT PANEL PCMCIA INTERFACE
For the MK V and MK VII, a PCMCIA card slot is provided in the front panel. For the MK VI, MK VIII, and MK XXII the PCMCIA interface utilizes an external PCMCIA interface called a “SmartCable” connected to the front panel Test Connector.
The PCMCIA interface provides a data downloading capability (either loading a new database from a PCMCIA Card or downloading history data from the EGPWC to a Fault History Card).
2.3.4.5 FRONT PANEL TEST CONNECTOR
The EGPWC front panel Test Connector provides communications support capabilities intended for maintenance and test functions. For the MK V and MK VII, this includes RS-232 and 422 communications. For the MK VI, MK VIII, and MK XXII this includes RS-232, power, and signals used for PCMCIA (SmartCable) operation. These serve as access to EGPWS signal monitoring, flight history, initiating BITE tests, updating databases, and other functions. The interface is full duplex and is intended for human interaction using custom interface programs such as the Honeywell WinVIEWS
