    The document describes an automatic flight control system with a dual channel autopilot. The autopilot engages when both flight control computers and attitude heading reference systems are operative along with other required systems. The autopilot can be disengaged manually or automatically in certain failure or emergency conditions. When engaged, the autopilot monitors control surfaces and provides indications of any out of trim conditions on the primary flight display.

    Rev. 65, Apr 22/2016

    1. INTRODUCTION
    The Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS) provides a two axes, dual channel, fail-passive
    autopilot (AP). The fail-passive autopilot system is protected against internal single hardware
    faults, and limits any malfunctioning commands to a response that is easily controlled by the pilot.
    Command inputs to the ailerons and elevators are provided by servos controlled by the Flight
    Control Computers (FCCs). The FCCs input the yaw damper system to control the rudder. The
    autopilot controls the airplane in response to flight director commands by actuating the
    appropriate control surfaces.
    To engage the autopilot, the following is required:
    • Both flight control computers are operative,
    • At least one yaw damper is engaged,
    • Both Attitude Heading Reference Systems (AHRS) are operable,
    • At least one Air Data Computer (ADC) is operative, and
    • There is no significant instability of the airplane.
    Turbulence mode reduces autopilot gain so that flight control computer response to turbulent
    flight conditions is slowed and airplane motion is smoother. On approach, an on-side localizer
    capture automatically clears the autopilot turbulence mode.

    The autopilot can be disengaged manually by any of the methods that follow:
    • Pushing either AP/SP DISC switch on the control wheels,
    • Pushing the AP ENG switch on the flight control panel,
    • Lowering the AP DISC switch-bar on the flight control panel (a red line becomes visible),
    • Operating the stabilizer trim switch on the control wheels,
    • Pressing either TOGA switch on the thrust levers, or
    • Pressing the yaw damper DISC push-button on the yaw damper panel.
    Disengaging the autopilot causes a cavalry charge aural alert, and the AP indication on the
    Primary Flight Display (PFD) turns red. The autopilot disengage warning will automatically cancel
    after approximately two repetitions of the cavalry charge, when a disengagement is mutually
    induced.
    Automatic disengagement of the autopilot occurs:
    • if both yaw dampers are disengaged or fail,
    • if a failure condition is detected by the FCC monitoring circuits,
    • if a stall warning occurs, or
    • during windshear avoidance procedures.
    The autopilot is automatically disengaged two seconds after a windshear warning (if the autopilot
    has not already been disengaged). During those two seconds, the autopilot will follow the
    windshear commands.
    In the event that the autopilot is disengaged due to a system fault, pressing the AP/SP DISC
    switch or either TOGA switch will cancel the red flashing AP indication on the PFD and silence
    the aural warning.
    The automatic flight control system monitors both axes of the autopilot when engaged. If a control
    surface is detected as significantly out of trim, an indication will appear on the PFD and a caution
    message will be displayed on the EICAS primary page to indicate in which direction the control
    surface is out of trim.
