CAS message
Description
NP 2000 MAX
Indicates that the FADEC commands a higher Np at
2,000 RPM due to:
-
an avionics failure, or
-
an overtorque, or
-
a FCU runaway (fuel metering valve fully
open).
To comply with engine power limitations, the
maximum available torque is reduced to 96%.
All FADEC system component failures are associated with dispatch indication on
ground. The pilot is informed that the next flight can be performed or not with CAS
messages displayed in the CAS window:
-
NO DISPATCH
indicates that the failure must be repaired prior further flight,
-
LMTD DISPATCH
indicates that further flight can be performed and the
failure should be repaired within 50 flight hours after first appearance of the
message. The duration of the flight after which
LMTD DISPATCH
appears
for the first time must be taken into account in the 50 flight hours.
Engine Control Lever
THROTTLE
See
The pilot operates the engine using the THROTTLE (electro-mechanical device)
located on the pedestal console.
The FADEC receives information of the THROTTLE position to modulate the
engine power from full reverse to maximum power:
-
on ground, the power response to the THROTTLE movement is non-linear to
provide more sensitivity at low power, close to IDLE,
-
in flight, the power response is linear to provide a smooth response
throughout the full range of operation.
IDLE position of the THROTTLE can lead to two different engine settings:
-
in flight, flight IDLE setting with dedicated Ng and propeller pitch values,
