ACTION
RESULT
1.In the E-Bay, on the WGL-DAR front panel:
In the E-Bay, on the WGL-DAR display:
  • Apply electrical power to the WGL-DAR.
NOTE: After the WGL-DAR is energized, it does a self-test for almost 2 minutes.
  • The FAIL INDICATOR flashes.
NOTE: After approximately 2 minutes, the FAIL INDICATOR light goes off and SYSTEM STATE comes into view.
2.In the cockpit, on the MCDU front panel:
In the cockpit, on the MCDU display:
  • Push the MCDU MENU button.
  • The MCDU MENU comes into view.
  • Push the line select key adjacent to the < AIDS indication.
  • The AIDS PARAMETER CALL UP page comes into view.
  • Push the line select key adjacent to the < DAR RECRDNG indication.
  • The AIDS:DAR RECORDING page comes into view.
  • DAR = STOPPED comes into view.
  • Push the line select key adjacent to *MANUAL START indication.
NOTE: It is not necessary to do the MANUAL WGL-DAR START procedure during this test if the WGL-DAR run control parameter is disabled. The modification of the WGL-DAR configuration file can change the WGL-DAR run control parameter.
  • DAR = RUNNING comes into view.

In the E-Bay, on the WGL-DAR display:

  • After some seconds RAWIN:SYNCIN comes into view.
NOTE: The WGL-DAR NG synchronizes with A717 data stream in max 15 seconds.
In the cockpit, on the MCDU front panel:
In the cockpit, on the MCDU display:
  • Push the line select key adjacent to the *MANUAL STOP indication.
NOTE: It is not necessary to do the MANUAL WGL-DAR STOP procedure during this test if the WGL-DAR run control parameter is disabled. The modification of the WGL-DAR configuration file can change the WGL-DAR run control parameter.
  • DAR = STOPPED comes into view.

In the E-Bay, on the WGL-DAR display:

  • After some seconds RAWSTP comes into view.
  • Push the line select key adjacent to the < RETURN indication until the MCDU MENU comes into view.
