CLASS 1
Class 1 failures have an operational consequence on the flight. You can
display the class 1 failures on the MCDU:
- in the LAST (or CURRENT) LEG REPORT.
- in the LAST (or CURRENT) LEG ECAM REPORT.
These faults are also indicated to the crew in flight:
- by the ECAM system (upper and/or lower Display Unit (DU)).
- by local warning in the cockpit.
Refer to the Minimum Equipment List (MEL):
"GO", "GO IF" or "NO GO".
CLASS 2
Class 2 failures have no immediate operational consequence and can be
displayed on request on the ECAM STATUS page, under the
MAINTENANCE title. You can display the class 2 failures on the MCDU:
- in the LAST (or CURRENT) LEG REPORT.
- in the LAST (or CURRENT) LEG ECAM REPORT.
A class 2 failure has to be repaired within 10 days. Refer to the MEL:
"GO" without condition. The example given here concerns the Cabin
Intercommunication Data System (CIDS) fault.
CLASS 3
Class 3 failures have no operational consequence. All aircraft systems
remain available. These faults are not indicated to the crew but you can
display the name of the systems affected by at least a class 3 failure in
the AVIONICS STATUS (only available on ground). Do not refer to the
MEL. Class 3 failures have no fixed time for correction. However,
correction is recommended to improve the dispatch reliability. Class 3
failures may be corrected during the A CHECK programmed maintenance
operations.
The LAST LEG ECAM REPORT shows the list of Electronic Centralized
Aircraft Monitoring (ECAM) warning messages sent to the Centralized
Fault Display Interface Unit (CFDIU) by the Flight Warning Computers
(FWC). It can store up to 40 warnings occurred during the last leg. On
ground, the title of this item is LAST LEG ECAM REPORT; in flight it
is CURRENT LEG ECAM REPORT. Documentary data appears on the
print report:
- the A/C identification,
- date and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT),
- the flight number,
- the city pair.
When you select the PRINT line key, all the LAST LEG ECAM REPORT
is printed.
