Hangar 7 / Select FMC HOLD page, then ND ...

Last post by Hardy Heinlin - Sat, 2 Dec 2023 00:48

Good evening.

Mariano just showed me a feature on the 767.

ND is in MAP mode.
FMC HOLD page is selected, referring to a hold fix which is not active yet (several legs away).
Pilot selects the PLAN mode.
PLAN screen automatically shows that hold fix in the center of the PLAN display.
Pilot selects the LEGS page.
<CTR> is shown at the active waypoint (not at that hold fix).
After 3 seconds, the PLAN screen shows the active waypoint in the center of the PLAN display.

In short words: When PLAN is selected while the HOLD page is shown, PLAN automatically shows that hold fix instead of the active waypoint. Normally, when PLAN is selected, the step-to <CTR> is first set at the active waypoint.

Does anybody know if the 744 systems behave the same? I think it's not documented.


Regards,

On your left and right CDUs, on the MENU pages, the alternate EFIS/EICAS control is selected ON. Just select them OFF.

Bode, is that a training scenario to learn the alternate EFIS control via the CDU? Then refer to Jay's hint :-)

If not, check on P7 that the CBs F11 and F16 are in.

Hi Bide, no worries you can control the EFIS display via the respective CDU and set qnh/minima etc

Left cdu Menu-> right LSK efis and eicas captain side

Right cdu for Copilot side.

* i am not home, maybe you need to select panel on/off to get access*

Cheers Jay

I have received the Advisory message "EFIS/EICAS C/P".   I looked up the message and it stated that the EFIS and EICAS have failed. On page 333 of the Operations manual it states "both EFIS control panels have failed".   How do I resolve this situation?

You can't ,,fix" it, but you can use the respective CDUs to control the EFIS and EICAS if both control panels (C/P) have failed. Is that what you meant?
