EICAS MESSAGES PRIORITY LOGIC


If more than one message is simultaneously presented, a warning will precede caution
messages, which will precede advisories. The space is provided for the simultaneous display of
up to 15 messages. An END label is provided after the last message, to indicate the end of the
message listing.

If more than 15 messages are being generated, a knob in the display bezel permits paging
through the remaining messages. In this case, a status line is provided in the sixteenth
line. It indicates how many messages are not being currently presented and where they are
(above or below the currently presented messages).

END label and warning messages can not be scrolled out of the display. Due to this character-
istic, caution and advisory messages will be scrolled in the area left blank below the warning
messages. If a new message is generated during a scrolling, it will be automatically displayed at
the top of the associated group.

INHIBITION LOGIC
To avoid its nuisance effect upon the flight crew, inhibition logic is provided to prevent some
messages from being displayed during takeoff and approach/landing phases.

The inhibition logic is as follows:

Takeoff Phase:
Inhibition is valid when the airplane crosses V1-15 kt. The inhibition logic is deactivated when
one of the following conditions is accomplished:
• Radio altitude is greater than 400 ft or
• Calibrated airpseed is less than 60 kt or
• After 1 minute

Approach/Landing Phase:
Inhibition is valid from the point when the airplane crosses 200 ft radio altitude. The inhibition
logic is deactivated when one of the following conditions is accomplished:
• Airplane is on the ground for 3 seconds or more
• After 1 minute

EDL LOGIC
EDL logic differs depending on whether the airplane is on the ground or in flight.

On the ground, all the DC buses are energized of at least one of the following conditions occur:
• At least 3 generators are on.
• The GPU is on and connected to the airplane.
• At least one generator is on, and the Shed Buses Selector Knob is set to OVRD position.

The following DC distribution table shows the Electrical Distribution Logic configuration
according to the conditions of the generators.

DC DISTRIBUTION TABLE

CONDITION RESULTS

4 or 5 Generators On Two isolated left and right electrical networks with all buses energized.

Both electrical networks interconnected through Bus Tie Contactors


3 Generators On
with all buses energized

Both electrical networks interconnected through Bus Tie Contactors


1 or 2 Generators On
with shed buses de-energized. Shed bus OVRD available on ground only.

Loss of all Generators Batteries to supply the Essential Buses (in-flight condition only)

The GPU has priority over any battery and generator when energizing the airplane. Thus, the
generators and the batteries cannot operate in parallel with the GPU.

EMBRAER 145 PILOT CLIENT GUIDE

ENGINE AND APU FIRE DETECTION/EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM PANEL


1. Engine Fire Extinguishing Handle:
• During normal flight conditions, the handle remains flush with the panel.
• A red light illuminates inside the handle upon detection of fire or overheating
• When pulled, it closes the fuel, hydraulic, bleed air and lip anti-icing shutoff valve of the
associated engine.
• When rotated counterclockwise or clockwise, it respectively discharges extinguisher
bottles A or B into the associated engine.

2. APU Fire Extinguishing Button (guarded):


• When pushed, it closes the APU fuel shutoff valve and discharges the APU fire
extinguisher bottle.

3. Fire Detection System Test Button:


• When pressed and held for at least two seconds, it permits the fire detection system to be
checked.
The EMB-145 is equipped with class "C" baggage compartment, and the fire test is
successfully completed if the conditions below occur simultaneously:
° The following EICAS fire detection messages are displayed:
• WARNING: APU FIRE, ENG 1 (2), BAGG SMOKE
• APU FIREDET FAIL, E1 (2) FIREDET FAIL
° Fire handles illuminate.
° Baggage compartment fan deactivates.
° WARNING/CAUTION lights flash.
° Aural warning sounds.

NOTE:  • On the ground, when pressed approximately for more than 10 seconds, the
APU is shut down, if it is running.
• If it is necessary to repeat the test, wait at least 6 seconds to press the test
button again.
• If Fire Detection Test button is held for less than 2 seconds the BAGG EXTG
button may remain illuminated. In this case, repeat the test.
