12.2 Aircraft Computer System (ACS) Interfaces
The Aircraft Computer System controls all exterior lights by activating and
deactivating appropriate exterior lighting ECBs based on pilot commands. The ten
exterior lighting ECBs reside on Electronic Circuit Breaker Units, one, four and five.
All exterior lighting is controlled by the pilot through hard switches on the center
switch panel. Commands from the center switch panel are routed through the PFD to
the ACS’ which in turn command the ECBs. The following lights are part of the
exterior lighting system:
1. Left and Right Landing Lights
2. Left and Right Taxi/Recognition Lights (Optional)
3. Left, Right, Aft Anti-Collision (Strobe) Lights
4. Beacon
