2 to Service Bulletin ( xx-34-14) to Service Bulletin ( xx-34-12) xx-202 Mod to xx-202 Mod Mod 1 Service Bulletin ( xx-34-42) Added support for the following aircraft: Embraer 145 with fully integrated Primus 1000 display (aircraft type 033) Changed support for the following existing aircraft types: Challenger CL604 (aircraft type 039) added Nonintegrated Collins ProLine 4 display capability Falcon 20F (aircraft type 070) added Nonintegrated Collins ProLine 2 display capability Falcon 20F (aircraft type 071) added Nonintegrated Collins ProLine 2 display capability and FMS Nav Mode input requirement Falcon 50 (aircraft type 082) added Nonintegrated Collins Pro Line 2 display capability, deleted Mag Track input from high and low speed FMS buses Falcon 50EX (aircraft type 092) updated per final Dassault/Collins/AlliedSignal definition Falcon 2000 (aircraft type 091) updated per final Dassault/Collins/AlliedSignal definition Global Express (aircraft type 097) updated per final Honeywell/AlliedSignal definition Lear 45 (aircraft type 102) updated to use ARINC 429 label 221 for Angle of Attack, instead of labels 222 and 223 Lear 60 (aircraft type 078) added Nonintegrated Collins ProLine 4 display capability and dual low speed FMS buses with FMS Nav Mode word, changed dual high speed FMS buses to optional Revised the Terrain Awareness takeoff approach guard to inhibit Terrain Awareness Alerts below 30 feet AGL if radio altitude data is valid Changed position accuracy requirements to a system that assigns a required position accuracy value for each phase of flight. The old system assigned a required position accuracy value based on terrain database resolution Revised Hard Glideslope message from continuous `Glideslope' voices to `Glideslope, Glideslope 3 second pause - Glideslope, Glideslope, - 3 second pause...' voices. This allows interleaving of other lower priority alerts Adjusted audio output to normalize all voices for a consistent volume level, one that matches the volume level of the MK V GPWS voices. This resulted in an approximate 4dB to 6dB increase in volume for some voices Re-recorded the following voices to fine-tune relative volume, inflection, clarity, and overall quality: `Invalid', `Altitude', `429', `Glideslope', `Bank Angle', `Caution Terrain', `V1', all numerical voices (e.g. `1', `2',...), all Altitude Callouts Added Alternate Audio (Voice) Menu # 6 Revised Altitude Callout Menu # 86 to change `Minimums' to `Minimum'. Added Altitude Callout Menu # 97: Plus Hundred, Minimums, 2500, 1000, 500, 100, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10 Added Altitude Callout Menu # 91: Minimums, 1000, 500, 100, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10 Added Altitude Callout Menu # 92: Plus Hundred, Minimums, 60, 30, 10 Added Altitude Callout Menu # 93: Radio Altimeter (female), 1000, 100, 50, 30, 20, 10 Added Altitude Callout Menu # 94: Above (female), Decide (female), Radio Altimeter(female), 1000, 100, 50, 30, 20, 10 Added Altitude Callout Menu # 95: Radio Altimeter(female), 1000 Added Altitude Callout Menu # 96: Plus Hundred, Minimums, 2500, 1000(baro), 500(baro), 100, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10 Revised Self-Test to inhibit Self-Test activation in the air and delete the `Obstacle' voice in Long Level 1 Revised Baro Altitude Callout reset logic to match that of the MK V GPWS Added capability to configure the Glideslope Cancel ceiling to either 2000 feet AGL or 1000 feet AGL Page 2
3 Mod 1 to Application Software Version 202 was not applicable to the MK V. It was only applicable to the MK VII. Mod 2 to the Application Software Version 202 and Mod 1 to the Configuration Software Version 202 implement the following changes: (1) The advisory task software is responsible for processing mode 6 functions, including altitude callouts. If the advisory task software fails or is suspended, the callout INOP discrete is set TRUE. However, very few aircraft types use the callout INOP discrete, which may result in a mode 6 task failure being unannunciated. The configuration database has been updated to set the GPW INOP discrete in addition to the CALLOUT INOP discrete. (2) On some aircraft types, the processor loading exceeds system capabilities. As a result, the look ahead terrain alerting and terrain display functions may be periodically inoperative. Several changes have been implemented in the application software to reduce processor loading. (3) Large terrain databases greater than approximately 32 Mb cause the MAPS task to set a watchdog reset at initialization, rendering the EGPWS inoperative. The Application Software will be changed to reset the watchdog timer and reschedule the keyboard monitor task which will prevent the watchdog reset during initialization. (4) If an operator attempts to install a version of EGPWS software that is older than the currently installed version, the EGPWS will fail upon power up. A change has been made to the PCMCIA card upload file used to load the EGPWS software. The change will permit installing versions of EGPWS software older than the currently installed version. Page 3

Revise the following voices to improve clarity and emphasis: Stall, Terrain Ahead Pull Up, and Terrain Ahead. Revised Self Test (Level 2) and Present Status messages to include identification of Glideslope Inhibit, Terrain Not Available (due to position information being out of tolerance), and all Inop conditions. Revise Inop logic to set all Inop indications for a program pin parity error. Revised Fault Reporting to remove lack of update fault reporting for GPS Date and GPS Time. Revised Position Switching logic for non-irs installations which use the FMS Nav Mode. The Terrain Not Available condition will occur faster upon loss of GPS and FMS radio updating (transition to dead reckoning). Revised Audio On output to activate faster and any time the EGPWS is speaking. Prior implementation did not set the Audio On for altitude callouts. Revised Too Low Terrain voice logic to ensure that it is not significantly delayed when it coincides with a 1000 food callout. Revised 429 output timing to ensure that specified update rate is met. Revised Altitude Callout Menu #38 to change Approaching Decision Height to Approaching Minimums and changed Decision Height top Minimums. Revised Audio Menu #1 to change the Obstacle Caution voice from Terrain Ahead to Obstacle Ahead and the Obstacle Warning voice from Terrain Ahead Pull Up to Obstacle Ahead Pull Up. Mod 1 to Application Software Version 204 fixes the problem of large terrain databases setting a watchdog reset at initialization, rendering the EGPWS inoperative. Mod 2 to the Application Software Version 204 and Mod 1 to the Configuration Software Version 204 implement the following changes: (1) During terrain caution or warning alerts, the display of the terrain threat region may be inaccurately portrayed when the display scale is set at 30 NM or larger. (2) If the advisory task software fails or is suspended, the configuration database will be updated to set the GPWS INOP discrete in addition to the CALLOUT INOP discrete to prevent mode 6 task failure being unannunciated. (3) Several changes will be implemented in the application software to reduce processor loading. Page 4

Default support is ARINC 743A (VFOM/HFOM in feet/nautical miles). Added Geometric Altitude for all aircraft types. Geometric Altitude uses GPS altitude, Static Air Temperature and Radio Altitude to determine a more accurate altitude above terrain in differing atmospheric conditions. Geometric Altitude requires GPS to be provided direct to the EGPWS, otherwise Corrected Barometric Altitude will be used. Updated display parameters for Primus 1000/2000 displays to not display TERR or OBST during and obstacle caution or warning. TERR remains only a mode annunciation indicating terrain is selected for display. Increased terrain display brightness for Primus 1000/2000 and SPZ-8000/8400/8500 aircraft. Added PEAKS mode support for SPZ-8500 EFIS (in G-V aircraft types 96 and 104).

Improved Terrain Awareness disable logic to prevent the function from being disabled below 30 feet while greater than 1 mile from the runway. Updated the Terrain Not Available logic to set the Not Available condition when position input signals are set to No Computed Data (NCD). Updated ground speed input reversion logic to prevent reversion to GPS ground speed if GPS is not available. Updated the audio volume control to allow for more flexibility in the output volume. A third level of audio volume was added mid-way between the existing high and low volumes. Updated position switching logic to allow manual Terrain Awareness inhibiting using GPS, IRS, and FMS inputs where no FMS Nav Mode is available. Updated RNP Mode Logic to more accurately select the Terrain Awareness Approach mode using relative altitude and distance from the runway. Improved the volume of the software Glideslope callout to be 6db below the loud Glideslope callout. Added Callout Menu #100: Plus Hundred, 2500, 1000(baro), 60, 30, 10 Added Callout Menu #5: Approaching Minimums, Minimums, 2500, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10 Mod 1 to Application Software Version 206 and Configuration Software Version 206 implements the following change: (1) Beechjet 400A Flap Angle Parameters problem - the 3 flap angle discrete inputs are missing from the aircraft Configuration Database Software. This causes a slight error in the Angle of Attack (AOA) correction. The Configuration Database Software is updated to add the Beechjet 400 flap angle inputs. Mod 2 to Application Software Version 206 and Configuration Software Version 206 implement the following changes: (1) During terrain caution or warning alerts, the display of the terrain threat region may be inaccurately portrayed when the display scale is set at 30 NM or larger. Page 5
6 (2) If the advisory task software fails or is suspended, the configuration database will be updated to set the GPWS INOP discrete in addition to the CALLOUT INOP discrete to prevent mode 6 task failure being unannunciated. (3) Several changes will be implemented in the application software to reduce processor loading. Mod 3 to Application Software Version 206 implements the following change: (1) Honeywell has discovered an EGPWS power up initialization issue when using Envelope Modulation Database B05. To correct this issue, Honeywell is implementing a minor MOD to the Application Software to correct this particular problem and also to prevent future issues with new Envelope Modulation Databases.

The following changes were made, within the guidelines of TSO-C92c, to reduce potential Mode 2 or 4 nuisance alerts: Eliminating the airspeed expansion of the standard Mode 4 curves when the enhanced terrain clearance floor is active. Limiting the top of the Mode 2 curve when the enhanced function is active and of high integrity. Added capability to activate Lamp Format 2 via program pin 12 (TP-5B). Added capability to reverse the Alternate Mode 4B function defined for each aircraft type via program pin 9 (MP-2C). Added support for alternate displays via program pin 18 (MP-15A). Added support for WGS-84 based GPS altitude via program pin 19 (MP-15B). Revised aircraft heading logic to derive True Heading from Magnetic Heading and Mag Variation in AHRS aircraft. Revised Air Ground logic to better detect on ground condition. This will ensure that EGPWS self tests can be performed on the ground with inaccurate radio altitude input. Revised Geometric Altimetry logic to allow geometric altitude to continue operating during failures of GPS and reduced the affect of corrected barometric altitude during QFE operations. Revise closest runway selection logic to more accurately select the closest runway when multiple runways are located in close proximity. Added Altitude Callout menu #32: 2500, 1000, 500, 100, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10 Added Altitude Callout menu #35: 2500, 1000(baro), 500(baro), 100, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10 Added Altitude Callout menu #101: 500 tone, 100, 50, 30, 20 Mod 1 to Application Software Version 208 and Configuration Software Version 208 implement the following changes: (1) During terrain caution or warning alerts, the display of the terrain threat region may be inaccurately portrayed when the display scale is set at 30 NM or larger.

(4) The application software will be updated so that the ILS Mode 2B parameter is not used by the smart 500 callout. Page 7
8 (5) The logic for disabling the TAD alerting and display functions will be updated to use the parameter Distance to Destination Runway Invalid instead of Runway Airport Designator Invalid. (6) The application software will be updated so that nuisance alerts will not be generated at or near airports with complex runway geometries. (7) The application software will be updated so that the terrain displayable discrete output is extinguished if the display range is NCD. Mod 2 to Application Software Version 208 implements the following change: (1) Converted the heading and track input filters from Linear to Circular. Due to an error in a filter applied to this input, the filtered heading or track output can be temporally incorrect when the aircraft is on a 180 heading or track. Mod 3 to Application Software Version 208 implements the following change: (1) Honeywell has discovered an EGPWS power up initialization issue when using Envelope Modulation Database B05. To correct this issue, Honeywell is implementing a minor MOD to the Application Software to correct this particular problem and also to prevent future issues with new Envelope Modulation Databases.

Lear 60 (aircraft type 078) updated interface to remove True Heading, allow internal computation of true heading Redefined use of program pins 18 and 19 to select alternate display types or variant display types. Several new display types were also added and are selectable using these program pins. Selection of the WGS-84 GPS altitude reference has been revised to use program pins 18 and 19 in combination, or program pin 11. Program pin 18/19 selection will override any selection made using program pin 11. Updated ground history fault storage to include the Terrain Not Available condition and any associated fault messages. Revised FMC position error processing to eliminate terrain not available indications during take-off roll. Revised Horizontal Figure of Merit (HFOM) validity processing to set the GPS position invalid when HFOM is invalid. Disabled all fault monitoring of the Terrain functions when terrain is inhibited by program pin. Updated the Terrain function for all integrated display aircraft types to set Terrain Awareness Not Available when the required input signals are set to No Computed Data (NCD). The following changes were made, within the guidelines of TSO-C92c, to reduce potential Mode 2 or 4 nuisance alerts: Reducing the Mode 2A upper limit to 1250 feet when the Terrain Awareness Functions are of high integrity. Selecting Mode 2B when the aircraft is within 5 NM and 3500 ft of the destination runway, and the Terrain Awareness Functions are of high integrity. Disabling the Mode 4 airspeed expansion when the aircraft is not in landing configuration and Terrain Clearance Floor is available or Terrain Awareness Functions are of high integrity. Added the Runway Field Clearance Floor (RFCF) alert function. RFCF alerts are based on height above the destination runway and provide landing short protection for runways that are significantly higher than the surrounding terrain. Updated Runway Selection logic to reduce nuisance alerts. Updated the Terrain Clearance Floor (TCF) function to reduce the occurrence of nuisance warnings via new envelope that is set to a minimum of 245 feet if the current aircraft position is not within 45º of the end of the destination runway. Increased the look-ahead distance from 4 nm to 8 nm to improve alerts before impact during high speed cruise. Corrected a Terrain Awareness display anomaly that caused threatening terrain to be inaccurately displayed at ranges 30 NM or greater. Updated Terrain Awareness logic to prevent the inhibit of the terrain function when the aircraft is not near a runway contained in the runway database. Updated radio altitude processing to perform reasonableness testing of the selected radio altimeter using Computed Terrain Clearance (Pseudo Radio Altitude). This change reduces the potential of nuisance warnings caused by false tracking of the radio altimeters. Updated ARINC 429 output to include Computed Terrain Clearance. Improved the operation of Geometric Altimetry when required input signals are failed. Added Corrected Barometric Altitude and Static Air Temperature validity discretes tests to the Level 6 self test sequence. Revised Glideslope Inhibit logic to limit the number of queued Glideslope alerts to one, after the release of the inhibit while still within the active alerting region. Corrected logic to enable the Smart 500 callout and ensure the callout is only disabled when the aircraft is on a valid Glideslope Front course and within 2 dots of glideslope deviation. Lowered the Windshear two-tone siren volume levels to match the levels provided in the classic MK5. Page 9
10 Added Altitude Callout Menu #34: 2500(Radio Altitude), 500, 100, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, MINIMUMS. Mod 1 to Application Software Version 210 implements the following change: (1) Converted the heading and track input filters from Linear to Circular. Due to an error in a filter applied to this input, the filtered heading or track output can be temporally incorrect when the aircraft is on a 180 heading or track. Mod 2 to Application Software version 210 implements the following change: (1) Honeywell has discovered an EGPWS power up initialization issue when using Envelope Modulation Database B05. To correct this issue, Honeywell is implementing a minor MOD to the Application Software to correct this particular problem and also to prevent future issues with new Envelope Modulation Databases.

Added new altitude callout menu 125 for Approaching Minimums, Minimums, 1000, 500, 100. Added Peaks functionality for Primus 1000/2000, Collins ProLine II and IV, Bendix IN182A/812A/842A/862A aircraft. All EGPWS displays now support Peaks functionality. Added KCPB display bus support for displays software enabled to use the function. Displays include Honeywell GNS- XLS or Primus radar indicators (via AvTech DSU) or TRA-45A, Avidyne FlightMax and Universal MFD-640. Updated Mode 4 logic to use airspeed validity and not inhibit Mode 4 alerts for zero airspeed. These changes were made within the guidelines of TSO-C92c and TSO C151a. Updated airspeed processing to limit the input to values greater than or equal to 40 knots. This change was made to prevent the use of zero indicated airspeed, which has been encountered in some simulators. Updated the Terrain Clearance Floor (TCF) function to reduce the occurrence of nuisance warnings in geographical areas with complex runway geometry. Updated Honeywell bank angle logic to correctly ratchet the advisory at 120% and 140% of the bank angle threshold at altitudes below 130 feet. Updated the Mode 4 voice ratchet logic to consistently give the initial Mode 4 alert upon entering the warning envelope. Prior to the EGPWS may not issue the initial Mode 4 alert on a subsequent approach, if the gear or flaps are deployed while a Mode 4 callout is in progress and a go around is then executed. Updated the computed altitude rate logic to prevent nuisance windshear and GPWC alerts when performing in flight power cycles on the EGPWS while radio altitude is valid. This applies only to aircraft types with acceleration and attitude signals enabled. Updated ARINC 429 label 271 output to include additional discretes to be set in sequence during Self Test level 1. Mod 1 to Application Software Version 212 implements the following change: (1) Converted the heading and track input filters from Linear to Circular. Due to an error in a filter applied to this input, the filtered heading or track output can be temporally incorrect when the aircraft is on a 180 heading or track.

Due to an error in a filter applied to this input, the filtered heading or track output can be temporally incorrect when the aircraft is on a 180 heading or track. Mod 2 to Application Software Version 213 implements the following change: (1) Honeywell has discovered an EGPWS power up initialization issue when using Envelope Modulation Database B05. To correct this issue, Honeywell is implementing a minor MOD to the Application Software to correct this particular problem and also to prevent future issues with new Envelope Modulation Databases.

13 xx to xx Service Bulletin ( xx-34-52) xx to xx-214 Mod Mod 1 Service Bulletin ( xx-34-54) xx-214 Mod Mod 1 to xx-214 Mod Mod 1 - Service Bulletin ( XXX-34-70) Added support for the following aircraft: Astra SPX with ProLine 4 Integrated Terrain Display (aircraft type 156) FAA Lear 60 and CL600 Calibration Aircraft configurations with MLS interface (aircraft type 76) Changed support for the following existing aircraft types: Added support for internal 24 Channel GPS card ( Mercury GPS ) to all aircraft types except the following: 46 CRJ-700/ CRJ-100/ Global Express 114 MD-80 AA EFIS 115 MD-80 AA non-efis Saudia PN x is required. ARINC 429 Channel 18 (pins MP-6C/6D) are internally hard-wired to the internal GPS receiver and can be used as GPS output for other devices. Program pin 7 must be configured for GPS Overlay to activate the Mercury GPS. Pins TP-6B/6C can also be used as GPS output for other devices. Note that PN x units can only provide RS-232 communication via the P1 front panel connector, as pins TP-6B/6C are dedicated to GPS output. In response to a Bombardier requirement, the CRJ-700 interface (aircraft type 46) has been adjusted to have just the TSO- C92c (Ground Proximity Warning) and TSO-C117a (Reactive Windshear) functions active. The TSO-C151a Class A (Terrain Awareness and Warning) functions have been made inactive independent of the "Terrain Awareness and TCF Inhibit" program pin for this aircraft type ID only. Modified Saab 2000 interface (a/c type 36) to require #1 GPS input Modified the Global Express (aircraft type 97) CAIMS Interface in response to the aircraft manufacturer's testing. Modified Dornier 328 (aircraft type 35) Label 171 handling to allow self-test operation when Terrain Awareness is disabled. Added TCAS Inhibit discrete outputs (active during EGPWS Caution or Warning, not Advisory Callouts) to the following aircraft types: 39 Non-Integrated CL Integrated CL CL-601 Rosemount AOA 85 Cl-601 SafeFlight AOA 97 Global Express 166 Lear 45 Integrated Display Optimized the Take-off/Approach logic to pre-arm the trigger for the 2500-foot Altitude Call-out (DHC configuration only). Added a pin programmable 500-foot callout option to the altitude call-out menus. This callout differs from the Smart 500 callout, in that this callout will enunciate 500 on all approaches, regardless of ILS tuned status. Added a new Altitude Call-out Menu #59: 1000, 500, 100, 50, 30, 10. Added a new Altitude Call-out Menu #104: Plus 100, Minimum, 200, 50, 30, 20, 10. Modified the existing KCPB Display option such that Geometric Altitude overlay text labeled "MSL" is now labeled as GSL. Added a second KCPB Display option without Geometric Altitude overlay text. Added BAe/Avro RJ Honeywell EFIS Bolt-On (Non-Integrated) Terrain Display as a selectable display via program pins 18/19. Relocated the Collins ProLine II Peaks Mode elevation values to prevent obstruction by EFIS symbology. Enabled the blue (cyan) water presentation as a basic part of the Collins ProLine 21 Peaks Mode terrain display. Optimized the DHC Peaks Mode Terrain Display. Page 13
14 Made the Vertical Profile Label 273 optional for Bendix IN182A/812A/842A/862A displays. Corrected the EFIS 10 implementation to include Terrain and Relay Selection in the ICD. Prioritized Terrain Not Available above Terrain Inhibit when using KCPB display format. Added a Query/Response Vertical Situation Display (VSD) Control as part of KCPB processing. Modified KCPB to display VSD based on heading (not track) when groundspeed is less than 60 knots. This change was required to allow the GNS-XLS terrain display Mode line select key to function when the aircraft groundspeed is less than 60 knots. Improved the KCPB Response to Display Range changes. Converted the Heading and Track input filters from linear type to circular type Optimized the ADC fault handling to better accommodate ADC input failures at power-up Optimized the AHRS/IRS bus hunting logic to use Mag Heading (Label 320) if Mag Track (Label 317) not present Suppressed the Attitude Mode messages caused by AHRS label 270 on aircraft types using AHRS/IRS bus hunting Optimized the WGS-84 implementation such that the WGS-84 altitude correction is prevented when using the EGPWS internal GPS card as a position source, thereby preventing a possible over-correction of the MSL corrected altitude Optimized Geometric Altitude time constants to help filter short term GPS errors Added a GPS VFOM filter to improve Geometric Altitude calculation immediately following the reacquiring of satellites Corrected the Runway Distance Computation when the International Date Line is between aircraft and runway locations. Suppressed the output of WS/GPWS/TERR INOP bits on Label 274 bit during all levels of self test in aircraft where these functions are disabled. Corrected the flashing lamp logic to properly flash cockpit alert lamps when the Mode 2 Altitude Gain function is active. In previous versions of software the cockpit alert lamps would illuminate continuously when the Mode 2 Altitude Gain was active, regardless of flashing lamp configuration setting. Modified Self-Test Level 3 to output Low Volume voice when Low Volume is activated via discrete input or within an altitude call-out menu. Improved fault history command handling when large amounts of data are stored in the fault records. Mod 1 to Application Software Version 214 and Configuration Software Version 214 implements the following change: (1) Operational experience of EGPWS using the internal GPS receiver (PN XXX-XXX) has shown during normal operation the internal GPS receiver may infrequently "drop out of normal navigation and go into Dead Reckoning mode. These drop outs are normally of short duration, approximately 10 seconds or less. During the drop out to Dead Reckoning mode the EGPWS terrain alerting and display may go INOP. To avoid these short INOP conditions, the EGPWS software was modified to add a "Dead Reckoning" algorithm that will continue to provide position data to the EGPWS for a short period of time when the GPS receiver transitions to Dead Reckoning mode. Mod 2 to Application Software Version 214 implements the following change: (1) Honeywell has discovered an EGPWS power up initialization issue when using Envelope Modulation Database B05. To correct this issue, Honeywell is implementing a minor MOD to the Application Software to correct this particular problem and also to prevent future issues with new Envelope Modulation Databases.

15 xx to xx Service Bulletin ( xx-34-61) xx to xx-216 Mod Mod 1 Service Bulletin ( /1690-xxx-34-63) xx-216 Mod Mod 1 to xx-216 Mod Mod 1 - Service Bulletin ( xxx-34-70) xx-216 Mod Mod 1 to xx-216 Mod Mod 3 Service Bulletin ( / ) Changed support for the following existing aircraft types: Bombardier CRJ-700 (Aircraft Type 46) - Reactivated Terrain Awareness and Warning System functions that were disabled in software Dornier DO-328 Jet (Aircraft Type 35) - Changed default Terrain Awareness Auto Pop-Up range from 5 to 10 nm Raytheon Hawker Horizon (Aircraft Type 110) - Updated MAU bus interface to read ARINC 429 label 171 as Type 2 (EGPWS monitors bit 23 for self-test initiation) Added the display of Terrain Database Version to the Level 1 Self Test terrain display test pattern as "TDB XXX" where XXX is the installed Terrain Database Version. Note that for displays currently showing a raster drawn self-test annunciation (TERR-ST or equivalent), this annunciation will be replaced by "TDB XXX". Added EFIS 10 display configuration that provides a ±60 display sweep angle to match the WXR sweep. Revised the internally computed vertical speed algorithm for aircraft without IRS inputs to prevent nuisance windshear warnings during aggressive pitch-attitude takeoffs. Added Internal GPS receiver Dead Reckoning function. Improves system availability by providing short-term position data during times when the EGPWS Internal GPS receiver transitions to dead reckoning mode. Added Altitude Callout Menu #31: RADIO ALTIMETER (female voice at 2500 feet), 1000, 800, 500, 400, 300, 200, 100, 50, 40, 30, 20, 15. Added Altitude Callout Menu #33: PLUS HUNDRED, MINIMUMS, 2500, 1000, 500, 100, 50, 30, 20, 10, 5. Revised Roll Rate initialization processing to reduce possibility of nuisance Bank Angle alerts when roll signal transitions from an Invalid to a Valid state. Revised position source selection for EGPWS with internal Mercury GPS. Use of FMS as a reversionary position source input is inhibited unless FMS Nav Mode data available. Revised interface processing for Primus EPIC CDS and CDS/R label 171 to only acknowledge range and auto-range confirm bits. Revised Fault History recording to prevent erroneous recording of internal GPS receiver faults during ATP. Added ability to record last valid program pin configuration in Status History to improve ATP troubleshooting. Mod 1 to Application Software Version 216 and Configuration Software Version 216 implement the following changes: (1) Initiation of Self-Test Level 5 can result in the illumination of the COMPUTER FAIL lamp on the front of the EGPWS LRU. This problem is intermittent and can occur when the fault history memory has reached its capacity. The EGPWS will continue to function and there is no flight deck effect. However, the red COMPUTER FAIL light is illuminated and can be cleared by either cycling power or erasing fault history. The application software is being modified to increase the allocated memory size and eliminate the potential for future COMPUTER FAIL indications due to insufficient fault history memory. (2) Artifacts can remain on the display after running the EGPWS self-test or while flying with 5nm range selected. The problem manifests itself as small dots resembling a starry night. It is most prevalent with GNS-XLS installations due to the use of KCPB, but it is not limited to this display type. This problem is considered a nuisance and can be cleared by rebooting the EGPWS or switching display modes. The application code is being modified to correctly initialize a variable in the Digital Signal Processor (DSP) software and prevent this anomaly from occurring regardless of the selected display type. (3) The blended Geometric Altitude solution initial conditions can be incorrectly preset which can limit the number of Geometric Altitude components used to ultimately derive the terrain awareness corrected altitude. This can result in small, momentary changes in the altitude used by the EGPWS to display and detect terrain with little or not cockpit effect. It can occur following a power-up or recovery from an invalid pressure altitude condition. The application code is being modified to correctly preset the GPS altitude used by Geometric Altitude. (4) The current implementation of the Geometric Altitude reasonableness check can allow some unreasonable altitude values to be included for short periods of time in the overall altitude solution. This can result in momentary changes in Page 15
16 the altitude used by the EGPWS to display and detect terrain if valid, unreasonable values are received from outside sensors. The application code is being modified to prevent the use of unreasonable altitude values in the blended Geometric Altitude solution. (5) The radio altitude component of Geometric Altitude is determined by sampling the Radio Altimeter input. The application software over samples the radio altitude input and delays the lowest altitude sample from getting to the blended altitude solution. This can produce small, momentary changes in the altitude used by the EGPWS during goaround when radio altitude is weighted more heavily in the blended geometric altitude solution. The application code is being modified to correct the number of radio altitude samples and remove the delay. Mod 2 to Application Software Version 216 implements the following change: (1) Honeywell has discovered an EGPWS power up initialization issue when using Envelope Modulation Database B05. To correct this issue, Honeywell is implementing a minor MOD to the Application Software to correct this particular problem and also to prevent future issues with new Envelope Modulation Databases. Mod 3 to Application Software Version 216 and Configuration Software Version 216 implement the following changes: (1) Eliminate an intermittent terrain display failure condition. The EGPWS provides a terrain display picture in the cockpit using ARINC 453 bus. In some EGPWS units the DSP serial output bus could latch up during power up resulting in a loss of 453 (terrain) data to the display. This failure mode does not happen on every power up and is in fact random and infrequent. This upgrade initializes a DSP register to eliminate this failure condition. For further details regarding this issue see Service Information Letter EGPWS-MKV-MKVII-51. (2) Eliminate very rare EGPWS INOP conditions due to a software general protection fault occurring during power up. This upgrade adds an additional interrupt routine. (3) Eliminate nuisance flickering of the external fault light on the EGPWS computer. For EGPWS installations that utilize a GPS input it is possible to see a cycling of the external fault light on the EGPWS computer itself due to issues with the fault monitoring of the GPS HIL signal. The HIL signal is used as a back up to the HFOM signal should the HFOM signal fail. Since HIL is a back up signal, the fault logic issue would drive only the external fault light on the EGPWS computer and not any aircraft EGPWS INOP indications. This failure mode is an inconvenience to the maintenance crew and has no flight deck effect. This upgrade minimally revises the HIL fault logic to correct this condition. Page 16
17 xx to xx Service Bulletin ( xxx-34-67) xx to xx-217 Mod Service Bulletin ( xxx-34-70) Changed support for the following existing aircraft types: AVRO RJ (A/C Types 54, 55) - Updated EFIS display option for either single or dual display select switches. Bombardier CL-604 (A/C Type 40) - Updated interface to mask out True Airspeed faults while the aircraft is on the ground with probe heaters activated. FIAS CL-601/3R & Learjet 60 (A/C Type 76) - Updated interface to change IOC #1 and IOC #2 buses from low speed to high speed. Dassault Falcon 20, 2000, 50EX, 50 (A/C Types 77, 91, 92, 94) - Added option for ProLine 21 Minimum Decision Altitude (MDA)/Decision Height (DH) based callouts via program pin selection. Gulfstream G-100/IAI Astra SPX (A/C Type 90) - Added option to select low speed FMS bus. Gulfstream G-200/IAI Galaxy (A/C Type 154) - Added option for ProLine 21 Minimum Decision Altitude (MDA)/Decision Height (DH) based callout via program pin selection. Saab 2000 (A/C Type 36) - Added support for a non-integrated Collins ProLine 4 display. Updated Honeywell SPZ8000, Primus 880/660/440 and EDZ805 display types to move terrain database version string up slightly on display to remove conflict with range ring. Added support for the older style non-integrated "bolt-on" Honeywell EDZ802 display. With Peaks activated a moving marker will be displayed just below the lower Peaks value. Added support for the newer style non-integrated "bolt-on" Honeywell EDZ806 display. With Peaks activated a moving marker will be displayed just below the lower Peaks value. Geometric Altitude algorithm improvements were incorporated to prevent inadvertent use of erroneous or unstable altitudes such as an altitude spike or large negative value. Added Altitude Callout Menu #109: APPROACHING MINIMUMS, MINIMUMS, 2500, 500, 100, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10. Mod 1 to Application Software Version 217 implements the following change: (1) Honeywell has discovered an EGPWS power up initialization issue when using Envelope Modulation Database B05.

18 xx to xx Service Bulletin ( / ) xx to xx-218 Mod Mod 1 Service Bulletin ( / ) Added support for the following aircraft: Gulfstream/IAI G-150 aircraft (Aircraft Type 177) with provisional windshear interface Changed support for the following existing aircraft type: Saab 2000 (Aircraft Type 036) - Revised IOC #2 bus interface to remove FMC labels 310 and 311, which are not used Added Runway Awareness Advisory System (RAAS) function. RAAS is a software enhancement hosted in the EGPWS. RAAS uses Global Positioning System (GPS) position data and the Honeywell EGPWS Database to provide aural advisories that supplement flight crew awareness of position during ground operations and on approach to landing. EGPWS basic ground proximity warnings, reactive windshear alerting, and Terrain Awareness (TAWS) protection and operation are unaltered by the addition of RAAS. RAAS is a chargeable upgrade. Contact Honeywell - Airlines and Avionics Products - Order Administration for details, required equipment, and pricing. Visit for more details on RAAS. Reduced nuisance Mode 2 alerts where radar vectoring regularly places aircraft within Mode 2 warning boundary. When GPS position is of High Integrity, and terrain data is of high quality, the Mode 2 boundary will be limited to a maximum of 950 feet. NOTE: When active, this change maintains an equivalent level of safety, and provides a reduced nuisance alert rate as provided for in TSO-C151b under Section 1.3, paragraph e. Increased Terrain Awareness Look-up warning time. Revised both the caution and warning look-up envelopes. Increased the look-ahead distance and terrain clearance values. Added adjustment for ground speed effect based on high descent rates. Revised the Terrain Awareness Alerting and Display cut-off altitude. This will improve caution and warning times for particular scenarios since the alerting cut-off altitude is now a function of the runway quality and VFOM/HFOM. Moved the Terrain Clearance Floor protection closer to the runway, and added an additional breakpoint on the curve close to the runway with a 200 ft/min slope to provide additional protection for shallow approaches. Changed Terrain Clearance Floor algorithm by moving the lateral area of curve expansion out 1.0 NM to facilitate maneuvering near a runway. Improved radio altitude reasonableness logic. Reduced nuisance basic GPWS alerts due to false radio altimeter tracking by enabling Radio Altimeter reasonableness testing when TAD is available and operating with high integrity, and the aircraft is at least 2500 feet above the terrain (was 4000 feet). Radio Altitude is set invalid for a maximum of 60 seconds when the selected source indicates a terrain clearance that is significantly less than the computed terrain clearance. Improved monitoring of GPS position data by adding GPS horizontal step change detection logic, and increasing the recovery time from invalid GPS signals. Revised GPS reasonableness and vertical step change logic to reduce nuisance alerts that are caused by GPS altitude step changes. Added Dead Reckoning function for all GPS interfaces (both internal and external) to improve system availability by providing short-term position data during times when the GPS receiver transitions to dead reckoning mode. Added Altitude Callout Menu #111: APPROACHING MINIMUMS, MINIMUMS, 2500, 1000, 500, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10 Mod 1 to Application Software Version 218 and Configuration Software Version 218 implement the following changes: (1) Eliminate an intermittent terrain display failure condition.

23 xx to xx Service Bulletin ( ) xx to xx-224 Mod Mod 1 Service Bulletin ( ) Added support for the following aircraft: Bombardier CL605 (Aircraft Type 56) with windshear Cessna Citation Jet 3 (Aircraft Type 32) with windshear Changed support for the following existing aircraft type: Gulfstream/IAI G-150 (Aircraft Type 177) - updated aero data for windshear Changed Runway Awareness Advisory System (RAAS) as follows: Incorporated the antenna placement in the Distance Remaining advisories Changed the Distance Remaining advisory logic so that an internal stack up of the Distance Remaining callouts cannot happen. Enhanced the Distance Remaining callouts to happen either at 50% of a runway length (current implementation) or at a specified distance from the runway end (new implementation), as set by RAAS Configuration Database (RCD) option. Improved simulator operation to suppress advisories during reposition. Provided for the optional RAAS inhibit switch to cancel a RAAS advisory voice in progress, and to refrain from voicing the last advisory that occurred while inhibited upon deactivation of the inhibit. Incorporated the position of the aircraft on the runway in the approaching runway on ground advisory, such that, if past the runway centerline the advisory is suppressed. Added capability for detecting and suppressing spurious GPS ground speed spikes while an aircraft is on the ground. This was done to prevent nuisance alerts of the RAAS taxiway takeoff advisory. Improved GPS uncertainty computation when a GPS is deemed to be underestimating its own accuracy. This change will improve EGPWS and RAAS function availability for such GPS systems. Improved terrain display resolution for the 10, 20, 40, and 100 NM range settings. A side affect of this is that at these range settings, terrain may not be displayed out to the extreme lower left and right corners of the display when the aircraft is near 50 degrees latitude. Added new ARINC 429 output label 041 containing runway information intended to be used by HUD Added RAAS Inhibit to bit 29 of existing ARINC 429 output label 051 Mod 1 to Application Software Version 224 and Configuration Software Version 224 implement the following changes: (1) In PN (with internal PXpress GPS card), if the PXpress GPS card is used as the position source, it is possible one or more of the Runway Awareness Advisory System (RAAS) functions identified below will not work correctly: a) On Taxiway b) Approaching Runway on Ground c) Distance Remaining on Landing d) Distance Remaining on Rejected Takeoff. This is caused by the ground speed and true track software that sets the GPS ground speed to zero while on the ground. This software is specific to the GPS-PXpress card. This modification changes the true track input software so that it is the same for all true track data. This allows the advisories that need the GPS ground speed (identified above) to work correctly. (2) In PN (with internal pxpress GPS card), if the pxpress GPS card is used as the position source, there is a very small risk, only if given specific conditions, that a loss of the Terrain Awareness and Display function could occur. This condition will not be identified to the flight crew. The condition can only occur if all Radio Altitude data or all Airspeed data has failed during takeoff and stays failed during the flight. Page 23
24 (3) In all EGPWS part numbers, the following modifications were made that have an effect on the RAAS function. a) The RAAS configuration database lets the Distance Remaining advisories start at a specified distance instead of at 50% of the runway length. It is possible that the Distance Remaining advisories could start 1000 feet (305 meters) before the specified distance if one of the conditions identified below occurs: Very high speed landing Rejected takeoff. This modification removes the possibility that the Distance Remaining advisories will start before the specified distance if one of the conditions identified above occurs. b) If the audio inhibit discrete is on, the last RAAS advisory can be saved and will be heard when the audio inhibit discrete goes off. This modification removes the possibility that the RAAS advisory will be heard when the audio inhibit discrete goes off. c) If the EGPWS is connected to a Rockwell Collins GPS-4000 or GPS-4000A, it is possible to get an incorrect On Taxiway advisory. This occurs if incorrect data is received from a GPS-4000, GPS-4000A, or other source of GPS ground speed. This modification removes the possibility of an incorrect On Taxiway advisory for the above condition. Page 24
25 xx to xx Service Bulletin ( ) xx to xx-226 Mod Mod 1 Service Bulletin ( ) Added support for the following aircraft: Bombardier Challenger 300 (Aircraft Type 34) with windshear Cessna Encore Plus (Aircraft Type 160) with windshear FAA FIAS Beech 300 with ProLine 21 (Aircraft Type 60) Changed support for the following existing aircraft types: Learjet 60 (Aircraft Type 78) - Added ProLine 21 as alternate display to support Learjet 60XR Raytheon Hawker 4000/Horizon (Aircraft Type 110) - Added windshear detection capability Changed Runway Awareness Advisory System (RAAS) as follows: Currently the top of the RAAS runway box is set at 800 feet, only 50 feet above the advisory threshold of 750 feet. This narrow window makes it difficult during repeated simulator testing of RAAS to make sure that the aircraft is in the box before an advisory is given. The height of the RAAS runway box will be increased from 800 feet to 1000 feet, for all MK V EGPWS platforms. NOTE: This does not affect the behavior of any of the RAAS advisories. Improved the logic for picking the closest RAAS runway when multiple runways are possible, for all MK V EGPWS platforms Revised the behavior of the Audio Inhibit Discrete as it relates to RAAS. Revised to remove the condition where the last RAAS advisory occurring while the Audio Inhibit Discrete was active would remain in a queue and be annunciated when the Audio Inhibit Discrete was deactivated. Revised to immediately cancel a RAAS advisory voice in progress. Revised the behavior of the GPWS Inhibit Discrete so that activation of the input does not inhibit RAAS Advisories. The GPWS Inhibit Discrete continues to inhibit the TSO-C92c GPWS alerts and warnings. Improved the Flight History maintenance function by limiting nuisance recordings and adding additional parameters to support both of the internal GPS systems: Mercury and pxpress Modified the Terrain Awareness look-ahead logic to reduce nuisance warnings during some turning RNP approaches near significant terrain by modulating the CAUTION and WARNING look-up distance during turns. This can be done safely due to the improved containment limits brought about by the use of GPS navigation. The forward looking algorithms continue to meet TSO-C151b Class A and no flight test procedures/profiles are changing as a result of this modification. Revised the voice driver to not issue the second Sinkrate voice if the GPW Inhibit (from Windshear) or the Audio Inhibit input discrete is activated between the first and second Sinkrate voice, then deactivated shortly thereafter Revised the BITE RAM address test to fully test all address lines Mod 1 to Application Software Version 226 and Configuration Software Version 226 implement the following changes: (1) In PN (with internal PXpress GPS card), if the PXpress GPS card is used as the position source, it is possible one or more of the Runway Awareness Advisory System (RAAS) functions identified below will not work correctly: a) On Taxiway b) Approaching Runway on Ground c) Distance Remaining on Landing d) Distance Remaining on Rejected Takeoff. This is caused by the ground speed and true track software that sets the GPS ground speed to zero while on the ground. This software is specific to the GPS-PXpress card. This modification changes the true track input software so that it is the same for all true track data. This allows the advisories that need the GPS ground speed (identified above) to work correctly. (2) In PN (with internal PXpress GPS card), if the PXpress GPS card is used as the position source, there is a very small risk, only if given specific conditions, that a loss of the Terrain Awareness and Display function could occur. This condition will not be identified to the flight crew. The condition can only occur if all Radio Altitude data or all Airspeed data has failed during takeoff and stays failed during the flight. Page 25
26 (3) In all EGPWS part numbers, the following modifications were made that have an effect on the RAAS function. a) The RAAS configuration database lets the Distance Remaining advisories start at a specified distance instead of at 50% of the runway length. It is possible that the Distance Remaining advisories could start 1000 feet (305 meters) before the specified distance if one of the conditions identified below occurs: Very high speed landing Rejected takeoff. This modification removes the possibility that the Distance Remaining advisories will start before the specified distance if one of the conditions identified above occurs. b) If the EGPWS is connected to a Rockwell Collins GPS-4000 or GPS-4000A, it is possible to get an incorrect On Taxiway advisory. This occurs if incorrect data is received from a GPS-4000, GPS-4000A, or other source of GPS ground speed. This modification removes the possibility of an incorrect On Taxiway advisory for the above condition. Page 26
27 xx to xx Service Bulletin ( ) Added support for the following aircraft: Cessna XLS+ with ProLine 21 (Aircraft Type 159) with windshear Changed support for the following existing aircraft types: Bombardier CRJ-100/200 (Aircraft Types 43 and 47) and CRJ-700/900 (Aircraft Type 46) - Corrected the software to set the FCC Audio Inhibit to False only when both FCC mode words are invalid. Previously, the software set the term to False if only one of the mode words was invalid. Dornier 328 (Aircraft Type 041) Corrected Honeywell Primus 2000 display range interface Changed the Runway Awareness Advisory System (RAAS) as follows: The RAAS configuration database lets the Distance Remaining advisories start at a specified distance instead of at 50% of the runway length. It is possible that the Distance Remaining advisories could start 1000 feet (305 meters) before the specified distance if one of the conditions identified below occurs: Very high speed landing Rejected takeoff. This modification removes the possibility that the Distance Remaining advisories will start before the specified distance if one of the conditions identified above occurs. If the EGPWS is connected to a Rockwell Collins GPS-4000 or GPS-4000A, it is possible to get an incorrect On Taxiway advisory. This occurs if incorrect data is received from a GPS-4000, GPS-4000A, or other source of GPS ground speed. This modification removes the possibility of an incorrect On Taxiway advisory for the above condition. Made the Flight History maintenance function better by limited nuisance recordings of on-ground faults Changed the preset logic of the Radio Altitude filter used in Mode 4, Unsafe Terrain Clearance. There have been incidents when a Mode 4 alert occurs after the Radio Altitude recovers from the Computed Terrain Clearance Reasonableness check. This minor change to the preset logic will decrease Mode 4 nuisance alerts caused by erroneous Radio Altitude values. The changes that are identified below are only for EGPWS Part Number , with functional RAAS and internal PXpress GPS cards: If the PXpress GPS card is used as the position source, it is possible one or more of the Runway Awareness Advisory System (RAAS) functions identified below will not work correctly: a) On Taxiway b) Approaching Runway on Ground c) Distance Remaining on Landing d) Distance Remaining on Rejected Takeoff. This is caused by the ground speed and true track software that sets the GPS ground speed to zero while on the ground. This software is specific to the GPS PXpress card. This modification changes the true track input software so that it is the same for all true track data. This allows the advisories that need the GPS ground speed (identified above) to work correctly. If the PXpress GPS card is used as the position source, there is a very small risk, only if given specific conditions, that a loss of the Terrain Awareness and Display function could occur. This condition will not be identified to the flight crew. The condition can only occur if all Radio Altitude data or all Airspeed data has failed during takeoff and stays failed during the flight. Page 27
28 xx to xx Service Bulletin D ( / ) xx to xx-230 Mod Mod 1 Service Bulletin D ( / ) Added support for the following aircraft: Cessna Citation Jet 4 (Aircraft Type 168) - Type 168 has a similar configuration to the Cessna Encore Plus except for the following differences: - The AOA data now comes from the ARINC 429 source (body AOA is on Label 224 and normalized AOA is on Label 241). The landing flap configuration is set to 30 degrees. The windshear type is set to parameterless. Changed support for the following existing aircraft types: Cessna Encore Plus (Aircraft Type 160) - Flap angle LSB has been corrected to instead of to improve precision. Cessna Citation Jet 1, 2, 3, CL-604 Integrated, Premier 1 (Aircraft Types 32, 37, 38, 40, 112) - Collins FMS glideslope scaling was revised in some aircraft thus causing possible Mode 5 nuisance alerts. Therefore the FMS has been removed as a valid source for Mode 5 alerting. This makes the Mode 5 glideslope/localizer source selection for these aircraft consistent with other ProLine 4 and ProLine 21 applications. The Mode 5 envelope floor has been raised from 30 feet to 50 feet to reduce possible nuisance alerts. New variant terrain displays have been added for Collins ProLine 21 IDS Display (Terrain Display ID 56 and 57). This enables business jet aircraft with the EGPWS to install a retrofit version of the ProLine 21. The chargeable optional functions or interfaces identified below have been added or revised to support the Honeywell SmartLanding and SmartRunway features: Added the new stabilized approach monitor function. This function provides the flight crew with awareness of unstabilized approaches to help decrease the risk of runway excursions, long landings, and hard landings. This function is enabled through RCD loading, which can be specified at the time of purchase. In addition, the RCD enable program pin or the approach monitor enable input discrete can be used with the RCD to enable the function. The function provides aural messages for advisory and caution conditions and visual indications for the caution condition. This function can be inhibited via the RAAS inhibit input discrete or the approach monitor inhibit input discrete. Added the new altimeter monitor function. This function provides the flight crew with awareness of an anomaly in the pressure altitude system when passing through the transition altitude. This function is enabled through RCD loading, which can be specified at the time of purchase. In addition, if desired, the RCD enable program pin, along with the RCD, can be used to enable the function. This function provides aural messages for these advisory conditions. Added the new takeoff flap configuration monitor. This function provides the flight crew with advance notice (upon runway alignment) of an improper flap configuration. The function is enabled through RCD loading which can be specified at the time of purchase. In addition, if desired, the RCD enable program pin or RAAS enable input discrete, along with the RCD, can be used to enable the function. This function provides aural messages and visual indications for this caution condition. This function can be inhibited via the RAAS inhibit input discrete. Added the long landing monitor. This function provides the flight crew with awareness that the aircraft has not touched down within a defined along-track distance from the runway threshold. It also provides flight crew awareness of a defined along-track distance from the end of the runway. This function is enabled through RCD loading, which can be specified at the time of purchase. In addition, the RCD enable program pin or RAAS enable input discrete can be used with the RCD to enable the function. The function provides aural messages and visual indications for this caution condition. This function can be inhibited via the RAAS inhibit input discrete. New RAAS caution alerts have been added for taxiway landing, approaching short runway in air, insufficient runway on ground, and taxiway takeoff. These functions are enabled through RCD loading which can be specified at the time of purchase. In addition, the RCD enable program pin or RAAS enable input discrete can be used with the RCD to enable the function. Refer to the brief explanation below of each of the new RAAS alerts. Page 28
29 The taxiway landing function alerts the crew when the aircraft is not lined up with a valid runway at low altitudes. A separate voice gender selection exists for this function. This function provides aural messages and visual indications for this caution condition. The approaching short runway caution - in air function is an addition to the existing approaching short runway - in air advisory. It provides a caution annunciation on final approach when the available length of the aligned runway may not be sufficient for normal landing. This function provides aural messages and visual indications for this caution condition. The insufficient runway caution, on ground function is an addition to the existing insufficient runway length - on ground advisory. It provides a caution annunciation early in the takeoff roll when the runway length available may not be sufficient for normal takeoff operations. This function provides aural messages and visual indications for this caution condition. The taxiway take-off caution uses the same algorithm as the existing taxiway take-off advisory algorithm. It provides a caution annunciation in lieu of an advisory annunciation for operators whose operational procedures treat this as a caution situation. This function provides aural messages and visual indications for this caution condition. A new RAAS option has been added. The option includes a distance unit voice aural (feet or meters) to the first occurrence of the distance remaining and the runway end callouts (example Four Thousand FEET remaining ). This function is enabled through RCD loading, which can be specified at the time of purchase. The new capability has been added to display visual messages to accompany the aurals identified below. The visual message is a text annunciation via a terrain display overlay page that is on the center of the display (one line below where the RAAS status is viewed). This function is enabled through RCD loading, which can be specified at the time of purchase RAAS aurals Stabilized approach monitor aurals Altimeter monitor aurals Long landing monitor aurals Takeoff flap configuration monitor aurals Terrain database version The RAAS distance remaining logic has been revised to handle runways with a displaced threshold. RAAS inoperative (INOP) has been revised to be set true when the global positioning system (GPS) is faulted even when the EGPWS selected position source is not GPS. The RAAS not available logic has been revised to prevent spurious RAAS Not Available occurrences when flying at low altitudes past non-raas airports. The RAAS status behavior has been revised as follows. For any non-working condition (INOP, not available, and inhibit): The status is displayed immediately and removed when a range change occurs. The status will be shown again for 2 sweeps for subsequent range changes. For working conditions (normal and rejected takeoff ): The status is displayed only when requested via a range change (for 2 sweeps). The location of the RAAS status is also centered on the display to correct issues with the long text string being cut off of the viewable area on some aircraft types. This is only applicable to aircraft with RAAS enabled. The Aeronautical Radio, Inc. (ARINC) 429 output labels have been revised to support the new functions as follows: The RAAS callout discrete output label 266 has been replaced with the unique voice identifier label 265. This replacement supports the expansion of new alert voices from the new functions. The alert discrete output label 300 has been redefined. This redefinition supports the new approach monitor caution, takeoff flap configuration monitor, and deep landing monitor outputs. The new discrete output label 056 has been added for the new taxiway takeoff caution and short runway caution alerts under the E-5 group. The present status has been updated to report RCD PART NUMBER instead of RAAS RCD PART NUMBER since the RCD contains more than just RAAS functions. Page 29
30 The ST levels 1 and 3 have been revised to include mention of the new monitor functions. GPS altitude input processing has been revised from 1,000 milliseconds to 100 milliseconds to minimize potential lag in the altitude data. The input signal from the aircraft will remain at 1,000 milliseconds. The horizontal dilution of precision (HDOP) and vertical dilution of position (VDOP) signals have been added into the computation of the horizontal figure of merit (HFOM) to get the higher precision required by the RAAS. This fixes the problem on aircraft with the Honeywell HT-9100 GPS installed where the selective availability (SA) is set ON. An option to use the glideslope cancel input discrete as the RAAS inhibit input discrete when the aircraft is on the ground has been added. This option is enabled through RCD loading. The 1,000 feet and 500 feet altitude callout window has been widened from 20 feet to 50 feet to reduce the chance of a stabilized approach monitor aural alert masking the Mode 6 altitude callout aurals. Possible Mode 1 nuisance alerts have been reduced by revising the data reasonableness check on the barometric altitude rate input signal. This causes data identified as unreasonable to be flagged when the radio altitude (RA) is at or below 60 feet. It also resets it to reasonable when RA is more than 95 feet. The 0.8 second time guard for the Mode 1 and Mode 5 caution/warning envelopes at power up has been removed to ensure the alert is transmitted as soon as possible when a power cycle occurs. The angle of attack (AOA) reasonableness test during takeoff roll has been revised to prevent false windshear (WS) fail indications. The potential terrain display problem has been fixed where the highest terrain is not selected when different resolution maps intersect. The option has been added to view the terrain database version on the terrain display while on the ground when requested via a range change (for 2 sweeps). Previously, the terrain database (TDB) version could only be seen during a self test (ST). This function is made to operate through the reloadable customer definitions (RCD) loading. Mod 1 to Application Software Version 230 and Configuration Software Version 230 implement the following changes: (1) The reason for this modification is to make the Application Software Version /-054 SmartRunway and SmartLanding features compatible with MK V EGPWS Terrain Database Version 456 and later. Honeywell introduced the SmartRunway and SmartLanding features in the Application Software Version /-054 software. At the same time, Honeywell released Terrain Database Version 454 to support these new features as well as the existing EGPWS TAWS functionality in the existing EGPWS part numbers. However, during field usage Honeywell discovered an issue with Terrain Database Version 454 (and subsequently, Terrain Database Version 455). The issue resulted in some specific existing EGPWS part numbers occasionally resetting and going INOP for 20 seconds. In order to resolve this issue, Honeywell released Terrain Database Version 456 which corrected the reset issue associated with Terrain Database Versions 454 and 455 and the specific EGPWS part numbers. However, the change to Terrain Database Version 456 requires a modification to the /-054 part numbers in order for these part numbers to utilize Terrain Database Version 456 and the SmartRunway and SmartLanding features. Customers utilizing the /-054 part numbers can continue to utilize Terrain Database Versions 454 and 455. If they are not utilizing any SmartRunway and SmartLanding features, they can utilize Terrain Database Version 456 and later. However, if customers using the /-054 part numbers are utilizing any SmartRunway and SmartLanding features and they need to update to Terrain Database Version 456 or later they must update to software Mod 1. Page 30
31 xx to xx Service Bulletin D ( / ) xx to xx-232 Mod Mod 1 Service Bulletin D ( / ) DELETED support for the following aircraft: Fokker 100 (Aircraft Type 131) - This software release cannot be used by Fokker 100 operators. Revised the application software to use the new runway database format to support SmartRunway and SmartLanding functions. Honeywell introduced the SmartRunway and SmartLanding features in the /-054 software release. During field usage, Honeywell discovered an issue with Terrain Database Version 454 (and subsequently 455) that resulted in some specific existing EGPWS part numbers occasionally resetting and going inoperative (INOP) for 20 seconds. To resolve this issue Honeywell released Terrain Database Version 456, which corrected the reset issue associated with Terrain Database Versions 454 and 455 and the specific EGPWS part numbers. If SmartRunway and/or SmartLanding functions are activated, then Terrain Database Version 456 or subsequent must be used. This release incorporates a change to the application software to be compatible with Terrain Database Version 456 and subsequent. Aircraft type 33, EMB Added reference speed to support SmartLanding Stabilized Approach Monitor Excessive Speed ( Too Fast ) function. Page 31
32 xx to xx Service Bulletin D ( XXX ) Added a reference speed label to the FMC ARINC 429 buses for the aircraft types listed below to support excessive speed monitor function of SmartLanding. Bombardier aircraft: Aircraft Type 78 - Learjet Model 60/60XR Aircraft Type 81 - Canadair CL- 601/3A, (SafeFlight AOA), Audio On Aircraft Type 85 - Canadair CL- 601/3A, (Rosemont AOA), Audio On Aircraft Type 97 - Canadair GEX Aircraft Type Learjet Model 45 Aircraft Type DeHavilland Dash with universal FMS/GPS Aircraft Type Canadair CL-601/3A (SafeFlight AOA), traffic collision avoidance system (TCAS) Inhibit Aircraft Type Canadair CL- 601/3A, (Rosemont AOA), TCAS Inhibit Aircraft Type Learjet Model 45 (Integrated Display).

Bombardier aircraft: Aircraft Type 34 - Challenger CL-300 Aircraft Type 43 - Canadair Regional Jet (RJ-100/RJ-200) Aircraft Type 46 - Canadair Regional Jet (CRJ) Series 700 Added ARINC 429 DCU 1 and 2 buses and flap angle label to the aircraft type listed below to support the takeoff flap configuration monitor function. Bombardier aircraft: Aircraft Type 47 - Canadair Regional Jet (RJ-100/RJ-200) Integrated Page 32
33 xx to xx Service Bulletin D ( XXX ) Added new Aircraft Type 26, Bombardier Challenger 300 (OEM). Aircraft Type 34 - Bombardier Challenger 300 (Retrofit): added reference speed input to support SmartLanding functionality, added LPV Glideslope alerting interface, updated to optimize the presentation of the terrain image on the larger format ProLine 21 displays. Aircraft Type 40 Bombardier CL-604: added reference speed and flap angle inputs to support SmartRunway and SmartLanding functionality, added LPV Glideslope alerting interface. Aircraft Type 56 Bombardier CL-605: added reference speed and flap angle inputs to support SmartRunway and SmartLanding functionality, added LPV Glideslope alerting interface. Aircraft Type Gulfstream G-150: Updated to optimize the presentation of the terrain image on the larger format ProLine 21 displays. Updated RAAS Not Available logic to reduce the possibility of nuisance activation when flying in the vicinity of non- RAAS qualified runways. To guarantee Caution Short Runway advisory is not given during takeoff after V1, the logic was updated to only activate on the transition of valid ground speed from below to above 40 knots. In previous software releases the SmartLanding Altimeter Monitor function is disabled when approaching a QFEdesignated airport. For customers operating at QFE airports with their altimeters set to QNH a RCD option was added to override the QFE disabling of the Altimeter Monitor function. Added cyan as a color option for the SmartRunway and SmartLanding visual messages that can be presented on the terrain display. Various SmartRunway and SmartLanding improvements were incorporated to ensure compliance with European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Certification Review Item (CRI) requirements: Updated RAAS INOP logic so it is activated with a broader list of signal faults. Updated RAAS Not Available logic so it is activated with a broader list of signal validities. Outputs for RAAS Not Available and RAAS INOP were added to existing ARINC 429 output label 051. A RAAS monitor INOP lamp output was added to all aircraft types that did not already have such output. The system was updated to allow a single input discrete to inhibit all configured SmartRunway and SmartLanding alerts. To accommodate the new RAAS Monitor discrete, changed existing output pins for the terrain/obstacle warning and caution lamps for the aircraft types listed below: Aircraft Type 78 - Learjet Model 60/60XR Aircraft Type 89 - Gulfstream G-200 (IAI Galaxy) non-integrated Aircraft Type 90 - Gulfstream G-100 (IAI Astra SPX) non-integrated Aircraft Type Falcon 2000 non-integrated Aircraft Type Falcon 50EX non-integrated AircraftType154 - Gulfstream G-200 (IAI Galaxy) integrated Aircraft Type Gulfstream G-100 (IAI Astra SPX) integrated GPS vertical step detector was updated to allow ascents in excess of 15,000 feet per minute.
