Require immediate crew attention. These messages are accompanied by flashing master warning, triple chime attenson with or without voice message or dedicated tone. Require immediate crew awareness and future crew action may be required in the form of alternate system selection or performance limitation. These message are accompanied by flashing master caution and a single chime. Indicate safe or normal system operation which require crew awareness, over and above the dark cockpit philosophy. Indicate minor failures or reduction in systems capability, which require no crew action.

CODE HEX DESCRIPTION TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURES


No fault found No troubleshooting required, test passed.
01-19 01-13 Reserved These diagnostic codes are reserved as spares for future use.
20 14 ARINC-429 bus loopback mismatch Indicates an ARINC 429 monitoring diagnostic. Data output does not match a received sample. Indicates a problem with the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) on the digital circuit car
21 15 ARINC-429 receiver no data Indicates a problem with the FPGA on the digital circuit card.
22 16 ARINC-429 receiver parity error
23 17 ARINC-429 transmitter not ready
24 18 Altitude counter altitude data not ready Indicates a problem with the digital circuit card.
25 19 Altitude counter beat frequency hardware overflow
26 1A Altitude counter frequency range
27 1B Altitude counter interval error
28 1C Altitude counter missing pulse limit
29 1D Analog output buffer 1 too high Indicates a problem with the analog outputs (-1XX and -3XX units only).
30 1E Analog output buffer 1 too low
31 1F Analog output buffer 2 too high
32 20 Analog output buffer 2 too low
33 21 Transmitter antenna disconnected Antenna monitoring must be enabled by connecting P1-21 to ground. Check antenna, antenna cable, and antenna connections. Used with ANT-52 antenna only.
34 22 Receiver antenna disconnected
35 23 Receiver and transmitter antennas disconnected
36 24 EEPROM no acknowledge data Indicates that the EEPROM is not properly following the data transfer protocol.
37 25 EEPROM no acknowledge slave address
38 26 EEPROM no acknowledge word address
39 27 Modulator deviation control limit Indicates that the modulator is not working properly.
40 28 Modulator center control limit
41 29 Modulator period error
42 2A Modulator linearity error
43 2B Modulator clock stopped
44 2C Modulator slope error
45 2D Modulator pulse width error
46 2E Modulator center error
47 2F Modulator monitor clear error
48 30 Modulator pulse missing error
49 31 State machine sequence error Indicates that the internal state machine is not working properly.
50 32 State machine interval error
51 33 State machine results error
52 34 State machine initial error
53 35 NVM header record checksum error These codes indicate the EEPROM contains corrupted data.
54 36 NVM maintenance record checksum error
55 37 NVM power cycle record checksum error
56 38 NVM trips checksum error
57 39 NVM trips backup checksum error
58 3A NVM calibration checksum error
59 3B NVM calibration backup checksum error
60 3C NVM reserved checksum error
61 3D NVM fault record checksum error
62 3E Soft reset watchdog armed
63 3F Strap AID complement Indicates a FPGA problem on the digital circuit card.
64 40 Strap AID select invalid Indicates the AID strapping and parity are not correct. There must be an odd number of ground straps connected to P1-22, P1-24, P1-27, and P1-37 on the ALT-4000.
65 41 Strap analog format select invalid Indicates that the Analog Format Select A and B straps are both either open or grounded on -1XX and -3XX units. (N/A for -12X units.)
66 42 Strap modulation frequency complement Indicates a FGPA problem on the digital circuit card.
67 43 Strap modulation frequency select invalid Indicates that more than one ground strap is connected to P1-38, P1-40, or P1-47; or that none of the three pins are grounded. Only one pin may be grounded to select the modulation  frequency.
68 44 Voltages -15/+12 high Indicates a power supply problem.
69 45 Voltages -15/+12 low
70 46 Voltages -5/+12 high
71 47 Voltages -5/+12 low
