YOUR RESULT IS 26.7%. YOU FAILED THE TEST!

1. How are the communication systems controlled? o By their respective control modulators. o By the Mode Control Panel. o By the Audio Control Panel. 2. What is the purpose of the ALT-NORM switch on the Audio Control Panel? o It selects an alternate radio. o It selects a degraded mode of operation of the ACP. o It swaps audio control panels with the observer. 3. The MASK-BOOM switch allows selection of the oxygen mask microphone orthe boom microphone. The MASK-BOOM switch does not affect the operationof the hand microphone. o True. o False. 4. In cased of degraded audio system operation: o Audio warnings for altitude alert are not heard. o Audio warnings for altitude alert and GPWS are not heard. Windshear alerts are not affected. o Audio warnings for altitude alert, GPWS and windshear are not heard. 5. In cased of degraded audio system operation can access the passenger address system through the ACP (Audio Control Panel). o True. o False. An audio system operating in the degraded mode cannot access the passenger address system through the audio control panel. The crewmember can still use the service interphone handset and PA microphone if they are installed on the control stand. 6. The call system is used as a means for various crewmembers to gain the attention of other crewmembers and to indicate that interphone communication is desired. Attention is gained through the use of lights and aural signals (chimes or horn). If the flight deck calls the cabin crew, the visual signal at called position is:

Blue. Pink. Green. Blue then becomes red after 5 seconds. 7. On the Audio Control panel (ACP) the Cabin call light comes ON. It will illuminate until: o remains illuminated for 10 seconds. o remains illuminated for 20 seconds. o remains illuminated for 30 seconds. o remains illuminated for 40 seconds. 8. The Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) can be erased: o Pushing erase button for 2 seconds and aircraft in flight. o Pushing erase button for 2 seconds and aircraft in ground with parking brake ON. o Pushing erase button for 2 seconds and aircraft in ground with parking brake ON or OFF. o Pushing erase button for 2 seconds and aircraft in flight with parking brake ON. 9. The Cockpit Voice Recorder in AUTO: o Always powers the CVR when DC bus 1 is powered. o Always powers the CVR when DC bus 2 is powered. o Always powers the CVR when AC Transfer bus 1 is powered. o Always powers the CVR from first engine start until 5 minutes after last engine shutdown. 10. The CVR uses four independent channels to record flight deck audio for maximum of: o 30 minutes. o 60 minutes. o 90 minutes. o 120 minutes. 11. The Cockpit Voice Recorder in ON: o Always powers the CVR from first engine start until 5 minutes then trips the switch to AUTO. o Always powers the CVR from first engine start until 5 minutes then trips the switch to AUTO (after takeoff) o Always powers the CVR from first engine start until 5 minutes then trips the switch to AUTO (after landing). 12. The CVR (orange box) is located: o In the forward Electronic & Equipment bay (E&E). o In the aft right side of the aft cargo compartment. o In the flight deck (under the captain's seat). o In the aft galley. 13. When is the Cockpit Voice Recorder active? o Anytime the battery switch is ON. o In flight only. o Anytime DC power is available, o Anytime 115 VAC is applied to the aircraft. 14. Which radio does the First Officer use in the degraded mode? o VHF-1 o VHF-2

o o o o

Both VHFs 15. In the degraded mode of operation, are the ACP transmitter selectors functional? o Yes. o No.
