EICAS-DISPLAY SELECT PANEL (DSP) CONTROLS OPERATION

PURPOSE The DSP switches are operational both in flight and on the
ground.
The display select panel provides operator selectable control
functions to the EICAS computer units for system operation, both DISPLAY SELECT
in-flight and on the ground.
The two display switches are momentary pushbutton switches.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION They control the mode of operation selected for the EICAS
computers as follows:
The display select panel functions include display format
selection, computer source selection, display brightness control • Pressing the ENGINE switch controls the display of

EICAS - CANCEL & RECALL SWITCHES

PURPOSE
The CANCEL and RECALL switches control the display of the
caution (level B) and advisory (level C) messages on the upper
display unit (DU). Warnings (level A) are not affected by these
switches.
LOCATION
The CANCEL and RECALL switches are located on the
captain’s instrument panel (P1), just to the left of the upper
EICAS display unit.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
The CANCEL and RECALL switches are push-type momentary
switches.
OPERATION-CANCEL
Pressing the cancel switch removes any caution and advisory
messages displayed on the upper DU. This switch is also used
to page through caution and advisory messages.
OPERATION-RECALL
Pressing the RECALL switch will return to view those caution
and advisory messages that are still applicable.
34

EICAS - MASTER CAUTION LIGHTS

PURPOSE
The master caution lights show the word CAUTION when lit
to direct attention to EICAS.
LOCATION
The master caution lights are located on the left and right
sides of the pilot’s glareshield panel (P7).
The master caution lights are single action (momentary)

OPERATION
The selected EICAS computer turns on these amber lights
when a new caution (level B) message appears. The lights
are reset to off when either switch light is pushed.

routine. BITE signals are processed through the system and
both DU’s show the EICAS BITE test format. When the BITE
routine is finished, EICAS displays “TEST OK”, or “TEST

faults are also displayed at this time. When the TEST switch is
pressed and released a second time, EICAS returns to its
power up condition (primary engine display on upper DU,
secondary engine display on the lower DU).

EICAS COMPUTER - CONTINUED

OPERATION
As soon as power is applied by the system circuit
breakers, the EICAS computers are operational. There
are no switches involved. Only one computer drives both
display units at any one time. The other computer is used
as a backup. Normally, the left EICAS computer is driving
the displays. This is accomplished by positioning the
computer select switch on the display select panel to the
AUTO position. This position allows automatic switching to
the right computer in the event of a left computer failure.
Manual selection of the active computer is provided by
selecting “L” or “R” on the computer select switch. The
EICAS computer unit provides continuous fault monitoring
of the interface and signal conditioning circuits, digital
processing circuits, symbol generating circuits, video and
deflection circuits and power supplies.
MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
The EICAS computer unit contains electrostatic sensitive
modules. Do not handle the computer unit before reading
appropriate procedures for handling electrostatic
discharge sensitive devices (reference maintenance

OPERATION
Warning messages cannot be cancelled, but caution and

recalled by using the EICAS CANCEL/RECALL switches.
MESSAGES - CANCEL FEATURE
In the example shown, pushing the CANCEL switch removes
only the caution and advisory messages from the display, while
the level A message remains.
MESSAGES - RECALL FEATURE
Cancelled messages are recalled by pressing the RECALL
switch. When pressed, the message “RECALL” momentarily
appears on the bottom message line, as shown. The previously

EICAS - MESSAGE CONSOLIDATION

PURPOSE
EICAS combines or replaces multiple component
related messages with individual system messages to
maximize the amount of information available to the
crew. This is called message consolidation. The graphic
illustrates two examples of consolidated messages.
Any time an engine is shut down by positioning the fuel
control switch to cutoff position or by pulling an engine
fire switch, the “L/R ENG SHUTDOWN“ level B caution
message appears. As shown in the graphic, these are
replacement messages since they both inhibit and
replace other engine related messages.
Another example of message consolidation is the level
C advisory message. It combines the individual level C
advisory window heat messages to alert the crew that
there are multiple unheated windows.
67
EICAS - MESSAGE CONSOLIDATION 68

EICAS - ON GROUND INHIBIT

OPERATION
If the airplane is on the ground and both engine fuel control
switches are in the cutoff position, the master caution lights
and the beeper tone are inhibited for any new level B
caution messages.
The only exception to this occurs during an altitude alert
test where the altitude alert level B caution message
appears, the beeper operates normally, but the caution
lights are inhibited.
When this on-ground inhibit is removed, neither the master

• Computed airspeed is greater than 80 kts
• Radio Altitude is less than 400 feet
