information to and pilot commands from the MFD is routed through both of the PFDs
to the ACS’.
The MFD is divided into upper and lower portions. The upper portion of the MFD is
continuously displayed, while the lower portion is considered configurable. Primary
control of most system functionality is provided through several systems synoptic
pages presented on the MFD. Each system synoptic page contains a schematic of
the selected system displaying the status of primary system components. A synoptic
page contains only information that the pilot needs to be aware of or that he/she has
control over. Less significant information such as vent lines, and other data not
required to diagnose system state or performance is excluded to prevent clutter.
System synoptic layouts are designed around operational control of the system and
while similar are not representative of actual system layout.
The MFD provides the following display and control functionality and is outlined in
detail in the MFD chapter of this manual:
