  • Page 152 COMPLEMENTARY FLIGHT MANUAL Conditions that inhibit the ALT mode engagement: - aircraft on ground, - airspeed below 55 kt if the collective trim is unavailable, - anomaly detected by the monitoring of the data sent to the FDS for display to the pilot but ground proximity level-off activation. It is signaled by three amber lines across the AFCS strip.
  • Page 153 COMPLEMENTARY FLIGHT MANUAL 2.3.4 Altitude acquisition mode (ALT.A) The ALT.A mode acquires and holds a pre-selected altitude. Turning ALT.A rotary knob on APMS presets a reference altitude (step = 100 ft above 5000 ft and 50 ft below). Pressing ALT.A rotary knob on APMS results first in selection of VS mode (climb or descent) with a default vertical speed according to table below or current VS if higher until the difference between actual altitude and reference altitude becomes lower than 300 ft.
  • Page 154 COMPLEMENTARY FLIGHT MANUAL 2.3.5 Glide slope mode (G/S) The GS mode acquires and holds the selected glide slope in order to make an ILS approach to an airport. When approaching the ground the AP automatically reverts to ALT mode in order to hold an altitude corresponding to a radio height of 80 ft.
  • Page 155 COMPLEMENTARY FLIGHT MANUAL b) Engagement/disengagement On ND display once the navigation source is set to the VOR/ILS whatever VOR/ILS 1 or VOR/ILS 2 receptor is selected and tuned to the frequency of the relevant beacon the mode is engaged by pressing the “NAV” pushbutton on APMS if the capture conditions are satisfied.
  • Page 156 COMPLEMENTARY FLIGHT MANUAL 2.3.6 Indicated airspeed (IAS) The IAS mode maintains the current indicated airspeed upon engagement or acquires and holds a pre-selected indicated airspeed. Adjustment of IAS reference is obtained through the cyclic beep trim. - When approaching the ground ALT mode is automatically engaged in order to hold an altitude corresponding to a radio height of 150 ft.
  • Page 157 COMPLEMENTARY FLIGHT MANUAL 2.3.7 Go around (GA) The GA mode used in case of a missed approach or an automatic departure from the hover acquires and holds a pre-defined vertical speed of 1 000 ft/min or the current vertical speed (whichever is the highest) and Vy or the current airspeed (whichever is the highest).
  • Page 158 COMPLEMENTARY FLIGHT MANUAL 2.3.8 Capture and retention of radar height mode (CR.HT) The CR.HT mode acquires and holds a pre-selected radio height. Turning CR.HT rotary knob on APMS presets a reference height (step = 10 ft). - The reference height can be adjusted either by the rotary knob on APMS or by the trim located on collective stick.
  • Page 159 COMPLEMENTARY FLIGHT MANUAL 2.4.1 Hover height hold mode (HT/HOV) The HT/HOV mode acquires and holds a pre-selected hover height (i.e. HHT) and pre-selected ground speed reference (i.e. HOV) set by pilot/hoist's operator thumb-wheels. This mode also coordinates the descent and deceleration along a 4.5 degrees slope in case of engagement away from 3D hover references also named autonomous transition down.
  • Page 160 COMPLEMENTARY FLIGHT MANUAL Reference management: HHT: The HHT reference is permanently selectable/modifiable via "HT/HOV" APMS rotary knob unless a problem has been identified in the visualization feedback to the pilot. Once the mode is engaged to give more comfort of use provided no inhibition condition has been detected and the hover is established the collective beep can be used in order to modify this reference at beep rate of 150 ft/min.
  • Page 161 COMPLEMENTARY FLIGHT MANUAL 2.4.2 Ground speed mode (GSPD) The GSPD mode acquires zero ground speed upon engagement but allows synchronization on current ground speed (cyclic trim release) and acceleration (beep). When combined with HHT and engaged away from 3D hover this mode also coordinates the descent and deceleration along a 4.5 deg slope.
  • Page 162 COMPLEMENTARY FLIGHT MANUAL 2.4.3 Guided transition down (TDN) This transition down mode is guided via the FMS with several hover point designation possibilities: - Using “F/TDN” (Fix and TransDown) pushbutton on APMS when flying over the target. This action automatically configures both the AP and FMS to run the complete procedure: .
  • Page 163 COMPLEMENTARY FLIGHT MANUAL - complete loss of ground speed for at least 30 s, - reset of engagement signal from FMS for at least 10 s, - navigation source selection different from FMS selection for at least 30 s. Condition that inhibits the TDN mode engagement: - Aircraft on ground.
