U0O35M0 - UM23BA000000001 TRANSMISSION MODE To connect one of the acoustical devices (microphone) to the transmission line, the associated transmission key must be selected on the Audio Control Panel (ACP) When the transmission key is pressed (green light illuminated) you are ready to transmit This selection can be disabled when you select another transceiver or when you press the illuminated pushbutton again Only ONE transmit key can be selected at a time RECEPTION MODE In order to listen on the selected transceiver, you must operate the Audio Control Panel (ACP) On the ACP, the reception knobs allows connection of the headsets / acoustic equipment to the transceiver reception via the Audio Management Unit To select a transceiver, the corresponding reception knob must be released out The reception knob comes on white To adjust the reception volume level, the selected reception knob must be turned Communications can now be established MAINTENANCE COURSE -

U0O35M0 - UM23BA000000001 FLIGHT INTERPHONE SYSTEM OPERATION Flight interphone selection is necessary for voice communications between flight crew members and for ground handling, taxiing and towing This control is performed using the ACP If the flight crew needs to maintain contact and communicate with the mechanic, the flight crew can push the MECHanic pushbutton on the CALLS panel on the overhead The Flight Interphone can also act as a transceiver Selection of the INTerphone transmission key lights the green bars, indicating that the flight interphone is ready to operate Pressing and releasing the INT reception knob illuminates the knob and enables adjustment of the interphone audio level The INTerphone/RADio selector switch must be in the INT position The INT position enables permanent use of the flight interphone without any further reaction and whatever radio key is selected The INT/RAD switch is a 3-position switch with INT being a stable position The RAD selection connects the pre-selected channel to transmit The RAD position is a momentary contact, and is spring loaded to the center position This position acts like the selection of the hand microphone pushbutton or the Push To Talk trigger on the side-stick MAINTENANCE COURSE -

Passenger Entertainment System (PES), - PES video, - PRerecorded Announcements and Music system (PRAM) The PES comprises the PES music, the PA announcement and the passenger service U3U06191 - U0O35M0 - UM23P3000000001 PES The PES transmits prerecorded music programs, PA information, video and video sounds to the passengers The audio signals can be heard through headphones connected to the Passenger Control Units (PCUs) The PCU allows several music channels and video audio channels to be selected and the volume to be adjusted The PCU also allows the reading lights and passenger calls to be remotely controlled through the Passenger Services System (PSS) All prerecorded announcements (video and sound) and the PA messages, heard in the headphones through the PCUs, have priority over the music and video sound entertainment channels The PA announcements and messages are also broadcast through the loudspeakers and headsets, via the Cabin Intercommunication Data System (CIDS) The PES audio reproducers supply music channels to the MAIN MUltipleXer (MAIN MUX) and BoardinG Music (BGM) channels to the CIDS directors (DIRs) The CIDS broadcasts the BGM through the loudspeakers BGM channel and volume control is performed on the Flight or Forward Attendant Panel (FAP) The MAIN MUX is connected to the CFDS via the CIDS DIRECTOR to ensure the PA BITE function The video is transmitted to the video System Control Unit (SCU) from the Video Tape Reproducers (VTRs) The video sound is transmitted to the MAIN MUX and to the CIDS Therefore video sounds can be heard from the headset through the PCU or from the loudspeakers The in-seat video DUs are supplied through the MAIN MUX PRAM The PRAM can be: - an audio tape reproducer, - a compact disc reproducer, - a flash card directly plugged in the Flight Attendant Panel only Reproducers or flash card contain prerecorded announcements and BGM supplied to the CIDS DIRs The announcements are also sent to the MAIN MUX The PRAM is controlled from the FAP PES VIDEO The PES video shows prerecorded video movies and video announcements through different Display Units (DUs) in the passenger compartment MAINTENANCE COURSE -

U0O35M0 - UM01D3000000001 Electro Static Discharge (ESD) is generated by rubbing materials with each other By moving over plastic materials (synthetic fibers), wearing synthetic fiber clothing, electrical charges build up on the body Thus voltages of 12000 to 35000 volts can develop on a person Touching connector pins of computer units, a discharge path is formed through wiring and components Integrated Circuit (IC) chips can be partly damaged or totally destroyed Rubbing materials from the "tribo-electris" series against each other and then separating them from each other causes a build-up of electrostatic charges If the materials are far apart in the series, there will be a higher electric charge MAINTENANCE COURSE -
