Automatic Brake System (ABS)
The Automatic Brake System (ABS) is an
electrically controlled means of
automatically applying the brakes in order
to maintain a constant level of deceleration.
The ABS has two modes of operation;
landing mode and take-off mode.
The landing mode provides pilot selection of
three levels of deceleration; MIN, MED, and
MAX. In the MIN and MED position, the
system compares actual airplane
deceleration with the pilot’s selection. In the
MAX position, full brake system pressure is
applied to the brakes and maximum
deceleration is limited to anti-skid system
operation.
During the rollout from a landing or rejected
take-off, the Auto Brake System will
automatically disarm under the following
conditions:
•
Brakes are applied manually by the
flight crew.
•
Speed brakes are stowed.
•
Either throttle is advanced.
•
Airplane comes to a full stop.
When the ABS disarms, the ABS light on the
glareshield will come on.
The take-off warning horn and vocal (‘AUTO
BRAKE’) will sound if the AUTO BRAKE
selector is in a position other than TO with
the Spoiler Lever armed.
