THRUST REVERSER INTERLOCK
The FADECs interface with the thrust reverser system of the
corresponding engine.
Each FADEC receives two pieces of information from the thrust
reverser system:
− Stowed: If all doors of the corresponding engine are stowed.
− Deployed: If all doors of the corresponding engine are deployed.
For flight operation there is also a flat between IDLE and
MAX REVERSE position. The FADEC enables reverse thrust
depending on the position of the reverser doors and on the position of
the engine thrust lever, and reduces the engine thrust to IDLE, if there
is an indication of an inadvertent thrust reverser deployment in flight,
which normally is not possible due to the Flight Idle electrical stop.
