BARC
BARC (Fuel and rotor alarm device). It is designed as an alternate mean in
case of EPM failure.
It should be preferred in case of doubt.
When the MASTER is switched ON, the BARC conducts a testing sequence
for caution / warning lights on the instrument panel, and the rotor speed
horn.
In order to reinitiate the testing sequence, the MASTER should be switched-
off during 45 seconds (make also sure that NR switch is on MAIN).
In case of an electrical bus failure, the BARC can be switched to a direct
battery backup supply.
