2. CABIN INTERPHONE.

2.1. General.

The cabin interphone system provides communication between :

- Cabin attendants,- Cabin attendants and the flight crew,- Cabin attendants and the service crew.

This system also provides a means of interfacing with the service interphone and passenger address systems.Single-digit, touch-tone calling from each handset and from the pilots call panel is provided to direct calls to specific stations.Handsets are located at all cabin attendant stations and the pilots aft aisle stand. (Pilots handset is a customer option).

When a cabin location is called from one of the cabin interphone handsets or the pilots call panel, a pink call light and a high/low chime are activated at the called station.When the flight compartment is called from a cabin handset, a blue location indicator light is activated on the pilots call panel and a high chime is generated.

When an ALERT call is made from any handset, the pink lights at all attendants stations will flash continuously at one-second intervals. At the same time, the high/low chimes will be repeated three times. The pink lights at each station will cease flashing as that stations handset is taken off the hook.In the flight compartment, an ALERT call will turn on the blue ALERT call light and sound a single high chime.

The passenger address (PA) system may be accessed by handset calling.If the cabin interphone system fails, the calling system will automatically switch the handset to the PA system.Priority for the PA system is automatically established as follows :

- Flight crew announcements,- Attendant announcements,- Pre-recorded tape announcements (PROV) and audio from the video

system,- Boarding music.

Voice conversations among attendants and flight crew are held between specific stations or as a party-line, since common amplifiers are utilized.Voice communication is provided through the pilots handset (when installed), audio selector panels, and attendants handsets. The circuits are voice actuated; therefore, one may not hear background noise on a handset until speech or other signal input exceeds the squelch limits.

8. PES - GENERAL.

Passenger Entertainment System (PES).The PES provides selectable recorded entertainment audio at each passenger seat location. This system provides a priority interrupt capability that enables a passenger address override to occur simultaneously on all audio channels.

The tape reproducer provides 12 channels of audio, 10 channels directly to the main multiplexer and 2 channels directly to the forward zone multiplexer. The same 2 channels are sent to the mid and aft zone multiplexers through the zone driver. The main mux coverts the audio from analog into digital, multiplexes the 10 channels and outputs them serially to the zone multiplexers. The zone multiplexers convert the 2 channels of tape reproducer audio and 2 channels of video system audio from analog into digital and multiplexes these channels with the 10 channels from the main mux. The combined signal is sent serially to each seat electronics box (SEB). The SEB demultiplexes the signal, converts the signal from digital to analog and supplies the audio to the passenger headset as selected by the passenger control unit (PCU). Passenger address announcements are input to the zone multiplexers and multiplexed onto all 14 channels.

Passenger Service System.The PSS provides passenger control of the reading lights and an attendant call capability for passenger service at each seat location.

The column timer decoder (CTD) serves as the interface unit between the SEB and the passenger service unit decoder (PSUD). It also has the clock that provides the timing for both the SEBs and the PSUDs. When a passenger pushes a reading light on or off switch or an attendant call switch, a signal is sent from the PCU to the SEB to the CTD. The CTD turns on the master attendant call light and through the PSUD the row call light or reading lights. It also triggers the electronic chimes.

9. PASSENGER ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM.

Main Multiplexer.The tape reproducer supplies ten monophonic tracks of analog audio to the main multiplexer. This input audio is converted to digital form, multiplexed, and sent to the forward zone multiplexer serially. These ten channels of audio are sent back out of the forward zone multiplexer to the mid zone multiplexer, and then back out of the mid zone multiplexer to the aft zone multiplexer.

Part of the audio to the main multiplexer may be in stereo form. In this case, one monophonic track from the tape reproducer will be programmed as the left channel of a stereo pair, while another normally monophonic track will be programmed as the right channel. Switches within the main multiplexer provide this programming flexibility.

Zone Multiplexers.Ten channels (tracks) of digitized audio from the main multiplexer are processed with other audio inputs in the forward, mid and aft zone multiplexers. They are multiplexed with the remaining tape reproducer tracks and two audio inputs from the video system control unit. PA audio, when present, replaces all other input audio.

A 50 ohm termination plug on the aft zone multiplexer terminates the multiplexer-to-multiplexer audio lines.

Seat Electronics Box.Fourteen channels of audio are sent from the forward, mid, and aft zone multiplexers to three columns of seat electronics boxes. Here the channels of digitized audio are converted back to analog form. The audio is then amplified and sent to the audio transducer and headset jack in the passenger control unit (PCU) as selected by the channel select switch.

Passenger Control Unit.A passenger listens to the audio by inserting an acoustic headset into the transducers openings or an electrical headset into the headset jacks.

The passenger may change audio program channels by selecting them through the channel select control of the PCU. The audio level is controlled by the volume controls in the PCU.

10. PASSENGER SERVICE SYSTEM.

10.1. PSS Block Diagram.

General.The passenger service system is made up of three zones : forward, mid and aft. Each zone has a column timer decoder (CTD), passenger service unit decoders (PSUD), seat electronics boxes (SEB), passenger control units (PCU), master call lights and electronic chime units. There is one attendant panel, with a test switch, at the left forward attendant station for the entire airplane. Each zone has right, center, and left columns with the seats connected from forward to aft in each column. Each CTD has three identical circuits to control its respective columns.

Forward Attendants Panel.The READING switch gives the attendant control of all reading lights in the airplane. They can be all on (for a reading light check or cabin cleaning), all off or in NORMAL position (under the control of each passenger).

The PASS ENT & SERVICE SYS switch allows the attendant to test both the PES and PSS for the entire airplane. It supplies various combinations of open and ground inputs to the CTDs depending on the switch position. It also applies 28 Vdc to the main multiplexer in MASTER TEST and ENT TEST positions.Each zone, forward and aft, has a separate MASTER CALL RESET switch/light. The FWD MSTR CALL RESET light combines indications for the forward and mid entertainment zones. The light will illuminate from a passed test in the respective zone. Pressing the MSTR CALL RESET switch will cause the corresponding zone master call lights and PSUD attendant (row) call lights to extinguish.

Operation.Each CTD acts as the interface unit between corresponding columns of PSUDs and SEBs. A termination plug is connected to the last PSUD and SEB in each column. Each PSUD controls reading lights (one per passenger seat) and an attendant call (row call) light (one per seat group). Each SEB receives inputs from two, three or four PCUs. The center columns may have three or four PCUs, but the outboard columns have only two. Each zone has blue master call lights for both the left side and the right side of the zone. Chime outputs provide input to the associated electronic chime unit to alert the attendant to passenger calls.

Attendant Call Function.Each passenger calls an attendant by pushing the attendant call button on their passenger control unit. This causes the PSUD row call light and the appropriate master call light to come on. The lights may be turned off by pushing the PCU reset switch (cancelling the call) or pushing the appropriate MASTER CALL RESET switch on the forward attendants panel.

13. ELT - INTRODUCTION

13.1. Purpose

The emergency locator transmitter (ELT) system automatically sends emergency signals when it senses a large change in the airplane velocity.

The ELT sends homing signals to search and rescue crews on the VHF and UHF emergency channels (121.5 MHz and 243.0 MHz).

The ELT also sends emergency signals to satellite receivers. The satellite receivers send this information to ground stations to calculate the location of the distress signals. This signal also position coordinates and airplane identification data.

13.2. General Description

The emergency locator transmitter (ELT) system has these components:

- Control panel- ELT transmitter - Antenna.

The control panel is used to manually start the ELT transmitter or to do a test of the ELT. It also has a light to tell you that the ELT transmitter is in operation. An EICAS level C message also notifies the crew when the ELT transmitter is on.

The ELT transmitter has two transmitter sections. One transmitter sends a swept tone on the VHF and UHF emergency channels (121.5/243.0 MHz). The other transmitter sends digital data every 50 seconds on the 406 MHz channel.

The antenna sends 121.5/243.0 MHz and 406 MHz transmit signals.
