B. Decode the HPP of the FACs and FMGCs.
(1) On the print sheet of the MCDU:
(a) The "FAC PINPROG CONFIG" indication for the FAC1(FAC2) Communication (COM) and Monitoring (MON) shows 7 digits.
(b) The "FMGC PINPROG CONFIG" indication for FMGC1(FMGC2) shows:
Subtask 22-96-00-740-055-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL - The HPP is shown as a hexadecimal code in which each digit can have 16 values (0 thru F). The digit rank of the HPP code is readable from the left (first digit) to the right (last digit).
- The converted code of the HPP code is a binary code.
- In the HPP code, each digit has four bits which are readable from the right (right-most bit) to the left (left-most bit). Each bit can have two values: 0 or 1.

NOTE: The dashes are not part of the HPP code.
(a) The "FAC PINPROG CONFIG" indication for the FAC1(FAC2) Communication (COM) and Monitoring (MON) shows 7 digits.
(b) The "FMGC PINPROG CONFIG" indication for FMGC1(FMGC2) shows:
- 16 digits for the COM
- 8 digits for the MON.
- Refer to the table for the FACs COM and MON lane pin-programming configuration-list.
