DESCRIPTION (3)
AVIONICS DOMAIN Overview

The AVIONICS DOMAIN is composed of:
-2 redundant servers named Aircraft Network Server Unit-OPerationS
(ANSU-OPS). These servers supply computing and memory resources
to the hosted OIS applications, documentation and database.
-2 redundant routers named Aircraft Router Unit-OPerationS (ARU-OPS).
These routers manage data exchanged between the AVIONICS WORLD,
the Network Server System (NSS) and its Human Machine Interfaces
(HMIs).
-1 Secure Interface Router Unit (SIRU) is dedicated to decontaminating
Aircraft Communication Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS)
messages coming from ground and to safely connect Portable
Multipurpose Access Terminals (PMATs) and Flight Attendant Panels
(FAPs) giving access to some NSS AVIONICS DOMAIN hosted
applications,
-2 Secure Communication Interfaces (SCIs), which supply safe and duplex
communication between the OIS applications and the AVIONICS
WORLD. Both SCIs also do the same between the OIS applications and
the Airline Operational Control (AOC) centers through the ACARS
network.
The Centralized Data Acquisition Module (CDAM) supplies aircraft
parameters and avionics data from the AVIONICS WORLD to the NSS
for recording and for OIS applications needs.
-1 Open World Diode (OWD), which allows a unidirectional data flow
coming from the AVIONICS DOMAIN and going to other NSS domains
and some cabin systems.
Note that the OWD is an electrical device that gives a single way of
communication from its left to its right. It prevents malicious data coming
from its right going to the avionics domain and to the avionics world.

System
The AVIONICS DOMAIN is accessible from the cockpit, from the cabin
and from additional areas on the A/C, through various interfaces, which
are:
-The CAPT and the F/O Onboard Information Terminals (OITs) with
their keyboard and Additional Control Device (ACD) mainly dedicated
to the flight crew,
-The Onboard Maintenance Terminal (OMT), including a media drive
(Compact Disk (CD) reader/writer and Digital Video Disk (DVD) reader),
dedicated to the maintenance staff,
-The PMATs dedicated to maintenance staff (PMAT is a ground support
equipment),
-The main and upper deck Flight Attendant Panels (FAPs) dedicated to
the cabin crew,
-And the Printer-1, installed on the pedestal, dedicated to flight crew and
maintenance staff.

DESCRIPTION (3)
AVIONICS DOMAIN Architecture

The AVIONICS DOMAIN supplies services like onboard/AOC centers
communication capability, maintenance tools, recording, e-documentation
and servicing tools.
These services are done by the NSS and OIS applications and
documentation.
These OIS applications and documentation include:
-Communication between the A/C and the AOC centers managed by an
AOC application,
-Maintenance operations with an Onboard Maintenance System (OMS)
application and a Virtual Digital Aircraft condition monitoring system
Recorder (VDAR) application,
-Recording of A/C parameters with a Virtual Quick Access Recorder
(VQAR) application,
-Electronic documentation with a Cabin Crew Operating Manual
(CCOM), a Configuration Deviation List (CDL) and a Minimum
Equipment List (MEL),
-Servicing with a Refuel application.
These applications are hosted in two redundant servers called ANSU-OPS.
Both servers are connected to each other for their database synchronization
and to get through loss of one ARU-OPS. These applications dialogue
with the AVIONICS WORLD through two redundant routers (ARU-OPS)
and two redundant SCIs. Moreover they receive data coming from the
AVIONICS WORLD through the CDAM.
The onboard/AOC centers communications are done through the Avionics
Communication Router (ACR) application installed in the Core Processing
Input/Output Module (CPIOM)-D3 and various communication means
such as High Frequency Data Radio (HFDR), VHF Data Radio (VDR)
and SATellite COMmunication (SATCOM).

System
Two switches called "OIT SIDE" switches are used to display on each
OIT data, from applications hosted either in the AVIONICS or FLIGHT
OPERATIONS DOMAINs.
Two Units called OIT-Terminal Processor Unit (TPU) are dedicated to
process the data coming from OIT keyboard and Additional Control
Device (ACD) and the data coming from the FLIGHT OPERATIONS
DOMAIN.
The OITs display the OIS applications hosted either in both ANSUs-OPS
or CAPT and F/O laptops.
The PMAT, located in the upper avionics bay, gives access to OIS
maintenance applications through 9 dedicated network plugs installed in
the A/C (forward Lower Deck Cargo Compartment (LDCC), main
avionics bay, upper avionics bay, refuel panel, nose landing gear, aft
lower LDCC, aft avionics bay, OMT rack and APU compartment).
A "GND CONNECTION" P/B allows:
-In ON position (P/B pressed in), the PMAT to be connected to the SIRU,
-In released out position, the PMAT to be disconnected from the SIRU.
The main and upper FAPs give access to the CCOM and the cabin
logbook.
Two NSS Control Units (NCUs) are dedicated to control the power up
and power down of certain NSS LRUs.
A FAN is mounted on the ARU-OPS, 2 and the ANSU-OPS, 2 to provide
backup ventilation in case of loss of the main avionics bay ventilation.
The main protocol of communication used in the open world is the
Ethernet.

DESCRIPTION (3)
SCI-CDAM
The AVIONICS WORLD and the OPEN WORLD need to exchange
data to each other. Depending on their type, data are sent either through
CDAM or SCIs.
The CDAM fulfills an unidirectional gateway function for A/C parameters
coming from LRUs and LRMs and going to specific OIS applications.
This gateway function converts AFDX and ARINC 429 data into Ethernet.
The SCI fulfills a bidirectional gateway and security functions for various
data, exchanged between various LRUs and OIS applications.
These LRUs are:
-PDMCs for the control of the Electronic C/Bs. This is in Ethernet format,
-LRUs for OMS data, Ground/Flight data, etc. These data are converted
by both SCIs from discrete or ARINC 429 format into Ethernet format
and vice versa.
-LRUs and LRMs, through the ADCN, for OMS data. These data are
converted by both SCIs from AFDX format into Ethernet format and vice
versa.
There are two SCIs for redundancy purpose. Only a single SCI at a time,
the one declared "active", exchanges data between AVIONICS WORLD
and OPEN WORLD.
The SCI toggles between passive and active status in two conditions:
after 6 hours of operation and in flight phase number 12.
Both SCIs exchange their health data in Ethernet format and their
active/inactive status in discrete format to each other.
A "NSS DATA TO AVNCS" P/B allows:
-In pressed in position, data to flow in both directions between the OPEN
WORLD and AVIONICS WORLD,
-In OFF position (P/B released out) data to flow from the AVIONICS
WORLD to the OPEN WORLD only.

OIT Switching
The display of the OIS applications running either in the AVIONICS or
FLIGHT OPERATIONS DOMAINs requires various components, which
are:
-An OIT to process, convert into Digital Video Interface (DVI) standard,
and to display on its screen OIS applications, keyboard and ACD input
data.
-An OIT keyboard to edit data and select parameters with its included
touchpad.
Note that the output data of the keyboard, touchpad and ACD are coded
in Proposed Serial 2 (PS2) standard.
-An OIT ACD to perform basic operations with the OIT.
-An "OIT" potentiometer to switch the OIT and OIT-TPU ON or OFF
and to adjust the brightness level of the OIT screen,
-An OIT TPU to process and convert into digital video format (DVI
standard) OIS applications data and OIT keyboard and ACD input data.
-An "OIT SIDE" switch to display AVIONICS DOMAIN OIS application
when the switch is in the "NSS AVNCS" position or to display FLIGHT
OPERATIONS DOMAINs OIS application when the switch is in the
"FLT OPS" position.

The power down lasts 120 seconds and the power up 140 seconds
approximately.
To carry out maintenance operations, the NSS servers can request, through
the NCUs, the power up and power down of the NSS LRUs (called:
"REMOTE ON/OFF REQUESTS").
In case of NCU unavailability, the ANSUs can do the same operations
through the routers (called: "BACKUP ON/OFF REQUESTS").
Each NSS LRU sends, through the NCU, their 115 VAC status (presence
or not of power supply) to the dedicated ANSU for maintenance need.

COMMUNICATION & CABIN DOMAIN Architecture

The COMMUNICATION and CABIN DOMAIN supplies services such
as PAX services, communication management capability and maintenance
tools.
These services are done by the NSS and OIS applications.
These OIS applications are hosted by the server named CNSU-PAX.
The CNSU-PAX hosts various applications, which are:
-E-mail and Internet applications,
-Communication management application,
-Wireless Local area network Manager (WLM) application,
-Local Maintenance Function (LMF) application.
The E-mail and Internet applications are used for the related passengers
to write and receive e-mail, and to surf the net during flight.
The communication management application manages the data links
using the SATCOM system (e.g.: communication channel opening and
closing, channels selection based on cost). These data links, using the
SATCOM system through an optional High Speed Data Unit (HSDU),
are used by the E-mail, Internet and Electronic Flight Folder (EFF)
applications and certain cabin systems such as CVMS and IFE system.
The WLM application transmits configuration data to the CWLUs (e.g.:
wireless communications not available during TAKE OFF).
The LMF supports maintenance operations dedicated to
COMMUNICATION and CABIN DOMAIN components.
A passenger with a PED (e.g. laptop) can access to e-mail and Internet
applications through a Seat Electronic Box (SEB), an In-Flight
Entertainment Center (IFEC) and the CRU-COM.
The type of connection between this PED and the SEB may be USB or
RJ45.
A passenger with a wireless PED (e.g. laptop equipped with a WIFI
board) can access to e-mail and Internet applications through 4 leaky line
antennae and 4 CWLUs.
Each leaky line is connected to both CWLUs through coaxial links. The
four leaky lines cover the total length of the main and upper deck cabin.
An airline cabin laptop may be connected to dedicated plugs, one located
at the door M1R, and one at the front face of the CNSU-PAX, for
maintenance purpose (e.g. to access to the LMF application).
The type of connection between this airline cabin laptop and these plugs
is RJ45 at the door M1R, and RJ45 or USB at the front face of the
CNSU-PAX.
A "NSS CABIN" C/B is used to reset the CNSU-PAX, the CRU-COM
and the CWLUs.
The "PAX SYS" P/B, when released out, activates a hard shut down of
all CWLUs (in case of smoke detection).
The COMMUNICATION and CABIN DOMAIN routes data coming
from the AVIONICS DOMAIN for the CVMS (e.g.: flight number) and
the (IFE) system (e.g.: airshow data).
