4. Procedure
Subtask 22-10-00-710-056-C

A. Do this test:

NOTE: During the test, ignore the visual and aural warnings.

ACTION	RESULT

1.On the FCU, on the EFIS control section: Set the two "in Hg/hPa" selector switches to hPa.
2.On the FCU: Pull and turn the selector knobs to change the values in the display windows.	The FCU shows these values: V/S: +30oo ALT: 40000 HDG: 359 SPD: 399 BARO pressure: 1013.
3.Close the circuit breaker 9CA2.	No change.
4.Open the circuit breaker 9CA1.	The FCU shows the same values as in step 2.
5.On the FCU: Change the values shown.	The FCU shows these values: V/S: -40oo ALT: 15800 HDG: 95 SPD: 120 BARO pressure: 1013
6.Close the circuit breaker 9CA1.	No change.
7.Open the circuit breaker 9CA2.	The FCU shows the same values as in step 5.
8.Open the circuit breaker 9CA1.	On the FCU, all the values go out of view. The displays will stay on for some time.
9.Wait more than 7 minutes and then close the circuit breaker 9CA2.	At the end of the safety test, the FCU shows these values: V/S: +00oo ALT: 00100 HDG: 000 SPD: 100 BARO pressure: 1013. The HDG-V/S indication is in view.
10.Open the circuit breaker 9CA2.	On the FCU, all the values go out of view. Note a residual illumination of the LED values if exists.
11.Close the circuit breaker 9CA1.	The FCU shows the same values as in step 9.
12.Close the circuit breaker 9CA2.	No change.
13.On the FCU: Push then release the HDG-V/S/TRK FPA pushbutton switch.	On the FCU: The TRK-FPA data is shown (indication and display windows).
Push the pushbutton switch again.	The HDG-V/S data is shown (indication and display windows)
14.Close the circuit breaker 10CA1. 15.On the FCU, (at the end of the safety test):
Pull the SPD-MACH selector knob.	The related display shows SPD 100.
Push and release the SPD/MACH pushbutton switch.	The related display window shows MACH .01 or MACH .10 if the ADIRUs are not set to OFF.
Push the pushbutton switch again.	The related display window shows SPD 100.
16.Close the circuit breaker 10CA2.
