4.2.3 EGPWS Configuration Instructions
These instructions will detail the configuration check list, initial configuration
(new configuration module) and volume output levels for the EGPWS.
It describes how the EGPWS interfaces to specific aircraft configurations. It con-
tains an overview of the selection categories for the different aircraft sensor
interfaces. It defines how the category IDs are selected for the interface to air-
craft sensors and to select EGPWS performance options. It defines the specific
aircraft applications of the EGPWS.

A Copy of Honeywell WINVIEWS
WinViews is an Enhanced GPWS diagnostic communications program that runs
from Windows on a PC that is connected to the EGPWS. WinViews HELP , as
well as many other menu items are active even though the program is fully oper-
ational when communications are established with the EGPWS.

4.2.3.2 Configuration Module Programming

The Configuration Module Programming is completed via the RS-232 port. The
application code is capable of loading the Configuration Module with new data.
This programming is achieved by using the WinsViews software. In WinViews,
the EGPWS will accept valid commands. To prevent inadvertent access to the
Configuration Module's EEPROM, the keyboard monitor is set up with a tiered
menu. The keyboard monitor command "CFG" is used to gain access to the
Configuration monitor.
The command to program the memory with the Configuration String is "CUW".
This command takes a pre-configured String (defined below) containing the
new memory contents and a CRC (written by the EGPWS) and writes them to
the Configuration Module's EEPROM.

4.2.3.3 Configuration String Format

The EGPWS requires a string of configuration information to be written to the
configuration module memory when requested from the keyboard monitor.
