a. CDU or DNS Memory Zeroize.
The DNS
memory zeroize function is used for maintenance pur-
poses only after the CDU or signal data converter has
been replaced. The CDU memory zeroize resets all flight
plan dictionary page waypoints to bogus default values.
This is done from the NAV top level present position page
as follows:
1. ADMIN Press. Observe that the ADMIN page
is displayed.
2. Enter CDU on the scratchpad.
3. ZERO Press.
4. FPLN Press. Observe that all locations on the
FPLN dictionary page displayed contain the
similar default values:
31T BV 6355 8711
E 000.0
sph CL6
5. Using the up and down arrow keys, scroll
through all FPLN dictionary pages, observing
that all location contain the default value.
6. NAV Press. Observe that the NAV top level
present position page is displayed with default
data next to the captions.
b. BACKUP Mode.
In the BACKUP mode, the last
remembered radar velocities become the source for navi-
gating.
This mode provides the capability to the operator of
manually entering GS and TKA via the NAV top level
present position page.
The BACKUP mode must be manually accessed. To op-
erate the BACKUP mode do the following:
1. ADMIN Press. Observe that the ADMIN page
is displayed.
2. BACKUP OFF Press. Observe that BACKUP
OFF changes to BACKUP ON.
3. Enter GS data into the scratchpad and press
VAB 7. Observe the data is now displayed on
line 5 next to GS.
4. Enter TKA data into the scratchpad and press
VAB 3. Observe that the data is now displayed
on line 5 next to TKA.
c. HBCM.
In HBCM the DNS determines the hover
bias velocities in both the longitudinal and lateral axis of
the DNS. The computed bias velocity corrections are ap-
plied to all future DNS hover velocity computations.
HBCM is accessed via the NAV top level present position
and ADMIN pages.
NOTE
Hover bias calibration only needs to be per-
formed when the signal data converter or
RTA has been replaced.
1. ADMIN Press. Observe that the ADMIN page
is displayed.
2. HBCM Press. Observe that the HBCM page
(fig 3-17) is displayed.
NOTE
If line 2 of the HBCM page does not dis-
play HBCM READY, the DNS has failed.
The time indicated on line 5 of the HBCM
page increments only when DNS is per-
forming hover bias computations. if the
DNS goes into memory mode, the time
display halts until the signal from the RTA
is sufficient for DNS computations.
3. START Press. Observe that on line 2 HBCM
READY changes to HBCM ACTIVE and on line
5 the time displayed begins incrementing.
NOTE
The calibration continues until the CPG
presses STOP to stop it. When the calibra-
tion is stopped, the mode status will be dis-
played. Allow the calibration to run for at
least two minutes but not more than 8 min-
utes.
4. STOP Press. Observe that the time display
freezes and a mode status message is dis-
played on line 2. If applicable, DNS error mes-
sages will be displayed on lines 3 and 4. The
DNS indicates the HBCM update was accepted
when an HBCM GO is displayed or not accepted
when an HBCM NO-GO message is displayed
along with a description of the exceeded limit(s)
on other lines. Possible DNS error messages
are:
TIME BELOW 2 MIN
TIME EXCEEDED 8.2 MIN
BIAS EXCEEDS 0.3 KTS
EXCESSIVE MEM CONDITION
