LE Autoslat
Each SMYD sends a signal to the autoslat solenoid valve

to move the autoslats. The autoslat system extends the
leading edge slats from the mid-extend to the full-
extend position for trailing edge flap positions 1, 2,
and 5 when the speed is less than a minimum safe margin
more than stall speed. The autoslat system increases
lift and makes airplane control and maneuverability
better at lower speeds. The autoslat system operates at
lower AOA values than normal stall warning.
Primary Yaw Damping
SMYD 1 sends analog command signals to the main rudder

PCU to operate primary yaw damping and move the rudder
to decrease unwanted yaw motion. Hydraulic system B
pressure is necessary for primary yaw damping.
WTRIS and Standby Yaw Damping
SMYD 2 gives commands to the standby rudder PCU to move

the rudder for WTRIS/standby yaw damping during non-
normal operations. This is only during manual reversion
when flight control systems A and B switches are in OFF
or STBY RUD. At least one switch must be in STBY RUD.

General
The SMYDs use electrical power from these sources:
- 28v DC standby bus

- 28v DC bus 1
- 28v DC bus 1
- 28v DC bus 2
- 28v AC standby bus
- 28v AC transfer bus 1
- 28v AC transfer bus 2
- 115v AC transfer bus 1.
Each SMYD gets a DC ground through the STALL WARN ASYM

MODE circuit breaker (CB). For the stall warning
function (stick shakers), the SMYD adds a bias to
provide the stick shaker warning sooner than normal
when there is a LE asymmetry indication. This CB
provides a ground which enables this early stall
warning function of the SMYD. The CB may be used to
disable the early warning function and does not affect
normal stall warning.

standby operations.
These are the components for primary yaw damping:

FMC
The FMC gives airplane gross weight to the SMYDs for

yaw damping calculations.
Trailing Edge Flaps Up Limit Switch
The trailing edge flaps up limit switches send data to

the SMYDs to put a limit on rudder movement for yaw
damping when the flaps are up.
SMYD
The 2 SMYDs are the same. When a SMYD LRU is in position

1, it does the primary yaw damper function during
normal operations.
For primary yaw damping, the 2 SMYDs must be in

operation. This is because SMYD 1 compares its yaw
damping calculations with SMYD 2 before it gives a
rudder movement command.
For operation of the WTRIS and standby yaw damping

systems, refer to the wheel-to-rudder section.

YDS -- MAIN RUDDER PCU ACTUATOR - SOLENOID VALVE
Purpose
The yaw damper solenoid valve on the main rudder PCU

pressurizes the yaw damper system. When you engage the
yaw damper system, the solenoid valve sends hydraulic
fluid to the electro-hydraulic servo valve (EHSV) that
controls the yaw damper actuator on the main rudder
PCU. This moves the rudder for yaw damping.
Physical Description
These are the three hydraulic ports in the solenoid:
- Input pressure port for input hydraulic pressure

- Output port for the output to the EHSV and yaw
damper actuator
- Return port for hydraulic fluid to the reservoir.
An electrical connector connects the solenoid valve to

the SMYD computer.
Functional Description
When the yaw damper is engaged, the SMYD sends 28v dc

to energize the solenoid valve which ports hydraulic
fluid under pressure to the EHSV and yaw damper
actuator.

YDS -- MAIN RUDDER PCU - ELECTROHYDRAULIC SERVO VALVE
Purpose
For primary yaw damping, the electrohydraulic servo

valve (EHSV) on the main rudder PCU changes an
electrical command signal from SMYD 1 into a controlled
hydraulic flow to the yaw damper actuator on the main
rudder PCU. The EHSV controls the rate and direction of
the yaw damper actuator motion for rudder movement to
provide primary yaw damping.
These are the four hydraulic ports on the EHSV:
- Input port for jet pipe controller/control spool

- Return port
- Two output ports to the yaw damper actuator.
A four pin electrical connector the SMYD computer to

the EHSV.
When an electrical signal for yaw damping comes from

the SMYD computer, it moves a jet pipe in the EHSV.
This causes the pressure at each end of the control
spool to change. This pressure differential causes the
control spool to move, which changes the output
pressure in each of the two output ports. This change
in the output pressure directs hydraulic fluid under
22-23-00-008.fm
pressure to move the yaw damper actuator in the desired
direction for yaw damping.

Engage Switch and Warning Light
To put the WTRIS and standby yaw damper on, do these

steps on the flight control panel:
- Put the FLT CONT A and B switches to positions

other than the ON position
- Put at least one of these switches to STBY RUD
- Put the yaw damper switch to ON.
When you put the flight control A and B switches to

positions other than the ON position, a signal enables

system A and B are OFF and the standby system is ON.
Engage Switch and Warning Light
To engage the WTRIS and standby yaw damping, you put

the yaw damper engage switch on the flight control
panel to the ON position. Two seconds later, the yaw
damper warning light goes out to show these systems are
operating. The switch is held in the ON position with
power from SMYD 2.
Put the switch in the OFF position to disengage the

WTRIS and standby yaw damping. The yaw damper warning
light comes on. The warning light comes on anytime the
system is disengaged. During a system fault and after
disengagement, the SMYD 2 removes power from the engage
switch solenoid so that the switch moves to the OFF
position.

FMCS -- GENERAL DESCRIPTION
General
The flight management computer system (FMCS) decreases

flight crew workload with automatic control of the
airplane navigation, performance and guidance
functions. It also gives access to the BITE functions
of other systems.
The FMCs receive data from other airplane systems to

calculate navigation and performance data. This data
shows on the common display system (CDS) for use by the
flight crew.
The navigation and performance function data is used by

the guidance sub-function in the FMC. The guidance sub-
function outputs are sent to the enhanced digital
flight control system (EDFCS) to give automatic
ormanual control of the airplane flight path in the
vertical (VNAV) and lateral (LNAV) modes. This is the
guidance function of the FMC.
FMC display data goes directly to CDS and present

position data goes directly to the air data inertial
reference units (ADIRU). The ADIRUs use present
position during the alignment.
All other data goes through two transfer relays to the

user systems.
The FMC input and output data format is ARINC 429

FMCS -- FLIGHT MANAGEMENT COMPUTER
Purpose
The FMC uses data from the airplane sensors and data
stored in the FMC to do the calculations for
navigation, performance, and guidance of the airplane.
The FMC is a rack-mounted chassis assembly in an ARINC

600, 4 MCU box. It weighs less than 22 pounds (10
kilograms). It uses 115V AC, 400 Hz single phase
electrical power.
The FMCs are cooled with air from the equipment cooling
supply and exhaust systems. Cooling air for FMC 1 is
blow-through. Cooling air for FMC 2 is draw-through.
Two green light emitting diodes (LEDs) show through

openings in the front of the unit. The PWR ON LED comes
on when the FMC has power. The FMC VALID LED comes on
after power is on and the unit passes internal tests.
CAUTION: FAILURE TO OBSERVE ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE

5v ac power is used for the lighted switch panel
lighting. The LCD module provides the display of 24 columns and
34-61-00-020.fm
14 rows. It is a non-light emitting device that
requires a separate light source (backlight assembly)
to make the display viewable.
34-61-00
- 173 -
During power-up, the LCD provides a display within 10
seconds at normal operating temperatures (0-55 degrees
C, 32-131 degrees F). At or below freezing
temperatures, the LCD can take up to 2 minutes to
provide a normal display. The LCD contains a
temperature regulating function which improves
operation over a wide range of temperatures.
Backlight Assembly
The backlight assembly has a lamp and control circuitry

to provide the required illumination for the LCD. It is
controlled by the P&I CCA.
The backlight assembly also sends ambient light level

information to the P&I CCA so that it can adjust the
luminance level for the LCD. The backlight assembly
also sends temperature information to the P&I CCA so
that, when necessary, it can turn on the LCD heater.
Lighted Switch Panel
The lighted switch panel provides the interface between

the operator and the FMCS through the CDU. The panel
contains two ambient light sensors which are used to
adjust the display brightness and contrast.

Engine Bleed Air Sensors performance target to the correct value and maintain
both airplane and engine optimal performance.
The FMC receives analog discretes from the air
conditioning system and the thermal antice (TAI)
systems for both the engines and wings. The FMC uses
this data to correct calculated thrust values.
Model/Engine Data Base (MEDB)
The MEDB contains this data:
- An aerodynamic model of the airplane. This

consists of recommended speed schedules, optimum
operating altitudes, buffet limit envelope and the
certified operating limits for the airplane.
Engine out operating conditions including speed
and drag data are also contained in this data base.
- Fuel flow and N1 thrust models for the engine
thrust rating selected on the airplane. These are
used to calculate fuel flow, thrust limits, engine
limits and to compensate for engine air bleed
loads.
- QRH takeoff speed data. This consists of V1, VR, V2
and takeoff stabilizer trim positions. Gross
weight, T/E flap position and center of gravity
are used to calculate these values.

General
The MCDU and FMCS both do internal BITE tests at power

up. If the power up test is normal, the MCDUs show the
MENU page.
The MENU page always shows the FMC prompt at line

select key 1L. The other available sub-systems show
below the FMC prompt.
Selection of the FMC prompt or any FMCS mode key on the

MCDU makes the FMCS the active user and the IDENT page
shows.
The status of the sub-systems shows on the MENU page by

the label <ACT> to the right of the active sub-system.
The label <REQ> shows to the right of a sub-system if
it is not active but has sent a request to the MCDU to
request operator attention.
The MENU page automatically shows if the primary FMC

fails but the FMC prompt will not show.

FMC
At power-up, each FMC does a check of the status of the

other FMC. During power-up, the MCDU annunciators come
on momentarily. If the primary FMC fails at power-up,
the FMC prompt does not show on the MENU page. The FMC
warning light on the autoflight status annunciators
also comes on. If the secondary FMC fails, the primary
FMC shows the SINGLE FMC OPERATION message in the
scratch pad on the IDENT page. If the transfer switch
is in normal, the FMC warning light comes on.
MCDU
A MCDU display is blank if the MCDU fails at power-up.
Other Tests
The FMCs also do a check of these functions at power-

up:
- Airplane and engine configuration program pins for

parity
- Cross compare FMC 1 and FMC 2 data bases and
operational flight programs.
For example, the message OP PROGRAM INVALID shows if

the operational flight program (OFP) of the primary FMC
is invalid at power-up. If the secondary FMC has a
valid OFP, the message tells the operator to switch to

FMCS -- VNAV - SPEED INTERVENTION
General
The speed intervention function lets the flight crew

change the FMC target airspeed without having to
disengage VNAV.
Speed Intervention
The flight crew enable speed intervention by pushing

the speed intervention pushbutton on the DFCS mode
control panel (MCP). The current FMC target airspeed
now shows in the MCP speed window and the pilot can
change the target speed to the desired value and use
the MCP speed selector.
The FMC now uses the entered target airspeed instead of

its own calculated value and the active flight plan is
not affected. The new selected airspeed shows on the
IAS/MACH display and the applicable CLB/CRZ/DES page on
the MCDUs.
Speed intervention is exited when you push the speed

intervention pushbutton again and the FMC now reverts
to its own calculated target airspeed. The MCP speed
window is blank again. Disengaging VNAV also disables
speed intervention.
NOTE: If the FMC is flying a path descent (VNAV PATH)

and speed intervention is selected, the FMC
changes to a speed descent (VNAV SPD).

code shows the the failed circuitry or program fault in
the FMC.
These are the monitor codes for ARINC 429 failures:
- Rate (receive rate failure)

- Parity (parity failure)
- SSM (sign/status matrix failure)
- Reason (reasonableness failure).
The FMCS checks each new ARINC input word for rate
errors. The sensor inputs are expected from the other
systems at certain rates and a rate error will be set
by the FMCS if they are not received in the allotted
time.
The FMCS checks each ARINC input word for parity

errors. A parity error is set if even parity is found.
The FMCS checks each ARINC input word for sign status
matrix (SSM) errors. An SSM error is set if an invalid
SSM is found.
The FMCS checks each ARINC input word to see that the
incoming values are within specified limits. If an
input word is not within these prest limits, a
reasonableness error is set.

The position error rate (nautical miles per hour) for

each ADIRU is displayed at line 2L and 4L on this page.
To calculate the position error rate, the FMCS divides

the difference between the FMCS position and ADIRU
position by the total flight time. The FMCS calculates
this error rate at the end of each flight. The display
clears when the airplane goes in the air.
The position error rate is blank if the ADIRU is not in

position of the rudder.
Flaps and Slats
The flap control lever moves the trailing edge flap

control valve. Hydraulic pressure goes through the
valve and drives the hydraulic motor. The hydraulic
motor supplies power to the flap drive system and the
flaps move. Follow-up cables give feedback to the
trailing edge flap control valve to stop the flaps at
the commanded position.
The follow-up cables also give an input to the leading

edge flaps control valve. This controls the position of
the leading edge devices. Then hydraulic pressure goes
to the actuators and moves the leading edge flaps and
slats.
The alternate flap switches electrically control the

trailing edge flaps. They also control the standby
hydraulic system to extend the leading edge flaps and
slats.

AILERON AND AILERON TRIM CONTROL SYSTEM -- AILERON CONTROL WHEEL
Purpose
The flight crew uses two control wheels for roll

control operation.
Location
The aileron control wheels are on the top of the two

elevator control columns.
The aileron control wheels are similar to control

wheels in other Boeing airplanes. The outboard side of
each wheel contains the stabilizer trim switches and
the autopilot disengage switches. The aileron trim
indicator placard is on the top of the control wheel.
When the pilot turns the control wheel, the control

cables move. Mechanical stops in the aileron control
wheel drum and aileron transfer mechanism keep the
control wheel movement to a limit of 107.5 degrees left
and right.

RUDDER AND RUDDER TRIM CONTROL SYSTEM -- INTRODUCTION
Purpose WTRIS - wheel-to-rudder interconnect system
The rudder controls the flight attitude of the airplane

around the vertical axis.
Location
The rudder has hinges aft of the rear spar of the

vertical stabilizer.
Yaw control
The pilots manually give a yaw input command with the

rudder pedals. When the yaw damper engages, it
automatically makes small yaw corrections. During yaw
damper operation, there is no feedback to the rudder
pedals.

three internal resolvers. The resolvers have interfaces
with these components:
- FSEU
- Stall management yaw damper (SMYD) 1 and 2
- Flight control computer (FCC) A and B
- Integrated flight systems accessory unit (IFSAU).
The FSEU uses flap position data from the flap position
transmitters to control the left and right pointers in
the flap position indicator. The FSEU uses inputs from
the asymmetry detection monitor. If the TE flaps are in
an asymmetry condition, the FSEU changes the signals to
one of the pointers in the flap position indicator.
This causes the pointers to be less than 15 degrees
apart during a TE flap asymmetry.
The FSEU also uses inputs from the flap skew monitor.
If the TE flaps are in a skew condition, the FSEU
changes the signals to one of the pointers in the flap
position indicator. This causes the pointers to be 15
degrees apart during a TE flap skew.
The position transmitters receive excitation power from

the IFSAU.
