Discrete inputs are used for system configuration, signal/status
input, and control input functions.
EGPWS program pins are utilized to tell the system the type of
aircraft and interface that it is in. These are defined and
established during the EGPWS installation. EGPWS output
functions are consequently the result of the program pin state
read each time the EGPWS is powered on.
Signal/status discretes include signals such as Decision Height,
Landing Flaps selected or Flap Position discretes, Landing Gear
selected, Terrain Display Range, and status discretes such as
Glideslope Valid, Localizer Valid, Radio Altitude Valid associated
with analog signal inputs.
Control discretes control EGPWS functions. These include
EGPWS Test, Glideslope Cancel, Glideslope Inhibit or Glideslope
Backcourse, Terrain (display) select, Terrain Inhibit, Flap
Over-ride, Audio Inhibit, Altitude Callout Enable, Steep
Approach Enable, and ILS Tuned discretes.
