AIR DATA & INERTIAL REFERENCE SYSTEM PRES. (1) General The Air Data and Inertial Reference System (ADIRS) is the A/C navigation center. It is an autonomous system, independent of ground navigation aids. The ADIRS gives many A/C systems and the Control and Display System (CDS) with air data, inertial parameters and time reference through the Avionics Data Communication Network (ADCN) and ARINC bus.
- ADIRU 2 gives data to the F/O EFIS, - ADIRU 3 stays in s tandby. In case of ADIRU1 and/or ADIRU2 failure, ADR 3 and/or IR 3 outputs may be manually switched using the swit ching control panel.

AIR DATA & INERTIAL REFERENCE SYSTEM PRES. (1) Air Data Reference Reference Acquisition The ADR part of each ADIRU receives air data from 3 types of sensors: - one MultiFunction Probe (MFP), located on the right or left hand side of the FWD fu selage, gives the Angle Of Attack (AOA), the Total Air Temperature (TA (TAT) and the Total Pressure (Pt), - two Integrated Static Probes (ISPs), l ocated on the FWD fuselag e, give the Static Pressure (Ps), - one Side Slip Angle (SSA), located on the FWD fuselage, gives the Side Slip Angle (SSA). Each probe has an internal air d ata/digital converter and transmits the air data parameters to the ADIRUs in digital format. Each probe has an integrated de-icing protection, which can be activated automatically by the ADIRS or manually through a PROBE/WINDOW HEAT HEAT P/B switch on the ICP. A rotary selector powers each ADIRU and the ADR P/B switch on the ICP individually controls each ADR part. The baro-setting on the EFIS control panel fulfills the barometric pressure correction.

AIR DATA & INERTIAL REFERENCE SYSTEM PRES. (1) Inertial Reference Acquisition Each ADIRU IR part supplies navigation and inertial data to the CDS and to other A/C systems through the ADCN. The inertial data are computed by the ADIRU using internal accelerometers and gyrometers. The navigation data and time mark are given from the GPS. In normal operation the IR part is automatically aligned using the GPS position. It may also be aligned manually through the KCCU and MFD. Each ADIRU is powered by a rotary selector and each IR part is individually controlled by the IR P/BSW on the ICP.

The Standby Navigation System (SNS) is the back-up system in case of ADIRS failure (Air Data and Inertial Reference System), CDS failure (Control and Display System) or ADCN failure (Avionics Data Communication Network). The SNS computes and provides: - standby Air Data Reference (ADR) information, - standby Inertial Reference (IR) information, - navigation information, - flight plan information. The SNS is composed of: - 2 independent Integrated Standby Instruments System (ISIS) units, located in the center of the main instrument panel. The ISIS computes and displays air data parameters, flight plan and navigation information. In normal configuration, ISIS 1 displays the standby flight display and ISIS 2 displays the standby navigation display. Each ISIS is capable of fulfilling all the functions of either standby flight display or standby navigation display. In case of failure of ISIS1, ISIS 2 is automatically reconfigured in standby flight display mode. In this configuration, it is possible to recover the standby navigation display again by an action on the MODE P/BSW, located on the front face of the ISIS. - one standby pitot probe, located on the left FWD fuselage, gives the Total Pressure (Pt), - two standby static probes, located on the left and right FWD fuselage on the nose front fairing, give the Static Pressure (Ps). All sensors are automatically or manually de-iced, - 1 standby compass, located on top of the windshield center post, gives A/C magnetic heading information. 0 L 1 6 1 6 0 W 1 L

Airport Navigation is an on-board function giving the flight crew improved situational awareness on the airport surface. The aims of Airport Navigation function are firstly to ease pilot workload in the day-to-day task of navigation around complex airfields; and secondly, secondly, an important safety function, is to help prevent dangerous errors in surface navigation such as runway incursion or take-off from the wrong runway/taxiway. Then, the function will contribute to potentially reduce taxiing delays thanks to improved navigation. The Airport Navigation function is done by the Onboard Airport Navigation System (OANS), which is composed of one OANC and other A/C systems described here after. The Airport Navigation function is, by default, displayed on the Navigation Display (ND) via the Concentrator and Multiplexor Video (CMV) and controlled by the Keyboard and Cursor Control Unit (KCCU) and the EFIS control panel. The ND is used as a display unit and does not make any computation on the OANS image, which is received by the video input. The computation of the function is allocated to a dedicated Line Replaceable Unit (LRU), which exchanges data with other systems and generates two independent images to display respectively on ND CAPT and ND F/O. The Airport Navigation image is generated by the Onboard Airport Navigation Computer (OANC) using: - airport data stored in the Airport data base, - A/C data coming from data sources such as Flight Management System (FMS), Air Data and Inertial Reference Unit (ADIRU), or stored in the LRU - pilot data entries. 0 L 1 6 1 6 0 W 1 L
