Operational Test of the Multiple VHF Data Radio (MVDR) System


TASK 23-12-00-710-802-A
Operational Test of the Multiple VHF Data Radio (MVDR) System


WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT ALL THE CIRCUITS IN MAINTENANCE ARE ISOLATED BEFORE YOU SUPPLY ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE AIRCRAFT. UNWANTED ELECTRICAL POWER CAN BE DANGEROUS.
NOTE: During this test, the aircraft must be in an open area.
NOTE: The transmission and reception test of the VHF system is the same for all the crew stations. You must do the test at each station.
ZONE: 210

ACTION
RESULT
1.On the RMP1:
On the RMP1:
  • Set the ON/OFF selector switch to ON.
  • The RMP shows the last frequencies and the last function used.
  • Push the VHF1 (VHF2, VHF3) pushbutton switch.
  • The green LED on this pushbutton switch comes on.
  • The SEL indicator light (amber LED) comes on only for the VHF2 system.

  • In the STBY/CRS display window, with the dual selector knob, set the frequency of a station that transmits.


  • Start this frequency. To do this, push the transfer pushbutton-switch (double arrow) between the two display windows.
  • The frequency set comes into view in the ACTIVE display window.

2.On the ACP of the station under maintenance:
On the ACP:
  • Push the VHF1 (VHF2, VHF3) transmission pushbutton-switch.
  • The green bars on the VHF1 (VHF2, VHF3) transmission pushbutton-switch come on.
  • Push and release the VHF1 (VHF2, VHF3) reception pushbutton-switch.
  • The reception pushbutton switch comes fully out and comes on.


  • Make sure that the reception in the boomset is correct.

  • Smoothly turn the VHF1 (VHF2, VHF3) reception pushbutton-switch clockwise.
  • The reception you can hear must change smoothly without interference.

  • Set the INT/RAD switch to RAD and hold it in this position (you can do this operation on the PTT switch of the sidestick controller at the CAPT or F/O station).


  • Speak in the boomset microphone.
  • Make sure that the transmission is correct.

  • Release the INT/RAD switch (or the PTT switch on the sidestick controller at the CAPT or F/O station).
  • The INT/RAD switch goes back to the center position.
5. Close-up
Subtask 23-12-00-860-055-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Put the aircraft back to its initial configuration.
   (1) On the ACP, push the VHF1 (VHF2, VHF3) transmission pushbutton-switch and the VHF1 (VHF2, VHF3) reception pushbutton-switch.
   (2) On the RMP1, set the ON/OFF selector switch to OFF.
   (3) Disconnect the boomset at the crew station where you do the maintenance.
   (4) De-energize the aircraft electrical circuits (Ref. AMM TASK 24-41-00-862-002).
