Engine Power Control; Engine Instrumentation - BOMBARDIER Challenger 601-3A CL-600-2B16 Pilot Training Manual

The switchlights on the ignition and start con-
trol panel provide for ignition arming and se-
lection of the ground start ignition mode, the
continuous ignition mode, and the in-flight
start ignition mode.
The stall protection system provides ignition
of the duration of stall warning regardless of
the position of all other ignition switches.

ENGINE POWER CONTROL

General
Engine power control is provided on a quad-
rant located on the center pedestal.
Thrust Levers
The individual engine thrust levers (Figure 7-
10) operate in quadrant slots from a full aft po-
sition labeled "SHUT OFF" to a full forward
position labeled "MAX POWER." An inter-
mediate position forward of SHUT OFF is la-
beled "IDLE."
A mechanical latch at the rear and below each
thrust lever knob must be raised before the

CL-600-2B16 PILOT TRAINING MANUAL
thrust lever can be moved to or from the SHUT
OFF position.
A go-around button is mounted in each thrust
lever knob. When either is pushed, it will dis-
engage the autopilot and place the AFCS sys-
tem in the go-around mode. Switches are
mounted in the throttle quadrant slots to provide
(1) takeoff configuration warning for flaps,
spoilers, and horizontal stabilizer, (2) pressur-
ization ground control mode, and (3) landing
configuration warning (landing gear not down
and locked at landing power settings).
Quadrant Friction Control
A single friction adjustment twist knob (Figure
7-10) is located on the quadrant aft of and be-
tween the thrust levers. Clockwise rotation will
increase friction, and counterclockwise rota-
tion will decrease friction.
Thrust reverse control levers are mounted pig-
gyback fashion on the thrust levers. Thrust re-
versers will be discussed later in this chapter.

ENGINE INSTRUMENTATION

General
The primary engine instruments (Figure 7-
11) are horizontally mounted at the top left side
of the center instrument panel. From left to
right these instruments are as follows:
Each instrument has two vertical scales: one
for the left engine and one for the right engine
which provides a nonlinear analog readout.
Below each vertical scale (except OIL TEMP
and OIL PRESS) is a three-digit digital read-
out. To increase safety factors, each indicator
is cross-powered using two power sources;
