 5.0 System Performance

The EGPWS operational performance will meet as a minimum the requirements of TSO-C92c, TSO-C117a,
and TSO-C151c Class A. The actual performance is defined in the EGPWS Product Specification.
5.1 TSO Deviations
5.1.1 Mode 2 GPWS Alert Envelope (Lower maximum altitude from 1250 feet to 950 feet)
TSO-C151c requires performance to TSO-C92c and RTCA/DO-161A, Minimum Performance Standards –
Airborne Ground Proximity Warning Equipment, dated May 27, 1976. Therefore, the following deviation
applies to TSO-C151c as it applies to GPWS modes of operation. The EGPWS will deviate from this
standard in that under specific conditions the EGPWS will lower the Mode 2 alert envelope maximum
altitude from 1250 feet to 950.

The reason for this deviation is that aircraft are being allowed to fly with minimum radar vector altitudes that
place the aircraft within 1000 feet AGL of terrain on approach. This causes Mode 2 nuisance alerts since the
top of the Mode 2 alert envelope is set to 1250 feet. Thus, this deviation will reduce these nuisance alerts.

Honeywell has shown to the FAA that the implementation of this change provides an equivalent level of
safety. In particular the lowering of the Mode 2 alert envelope does not turn off the Mode 2 alert algorithm.
In addition, this envelope modification happens only if the TSO-C151c Look-ahead (TAWS) algorithms are
active, with high quality terrain data in the area of the aircraft, and with very accurate vertical and horizontal
position. Therefore, the aircraft is provided protection by the TAWS algorithms as well as the reduced Mode
2 alert envelope.
5.1.2 Mode 1 GPWS Alert Envelope (Raise lower cutoff from 10 feet to 130 feet)
TSO-C151c requires performance to TSO-C92c and RTCA/DO-161A, Minimum Performance Standards –
Airborne Ground Proximity Warning Equipment, dated May 27, 1976. Therefore, the following deviation
applies to TSO-C151c as it applies to GPWS modes of operation. The EGPWS will deviate from this
standard in that under specific conditions the EGPWS will increase the cut-off floor of the Mode 1 alert
envelope from 10 feet to 130 feet.

The reason for this deviation is to allow aircraft to perform allowed “steep approaches” to specific airports.
For example, London City airport in England is known to be a problematic location. This change will allow
configured aircraft to land using “steep approaches” without nuisance alerts.

Honeywell has shown to the FAA that the implementation of this change provides an equivalent level of
safety. In particular the implementation includes the following:

• The flight crew must activate a dedicated “Steep Approach” switch in the flight deck.
• When selected, the switch will have a lighted annunciation on the switch.
• The aircraft must be flying in a configuration with specific slats/flaps, gear and speed brake settings.
• When active an aural “Standby” is provided at 125 and 95 feet and an aural “Flare” is provided at 75 feet.
• If a Mode 1 alert is present above 130 feet and remains active as the aircraft passes through 130 feet, the
Mode 1 alert algorithm will remain active to 10 feet.
• The EGPWS performs fault monitoring of the steep approach select input.

Please note that this “Steep Approach” function is different from the standard EGPWS steep approach
function which is selectable for all aircraft types. This specific steep approach mode is limited to specific
aircraft models and is approved for the A320 family of aircrafts only. Consult the aircraft configuration data
tables in the ICD.

5.1.3 Mode 7 Windshear Alerting (Gust conditions and shear intensity tests)
TSO-C117a specifies that when the equipment is subjected to an average shear intensity of fay,x = 0.105, an
alert must be generated within 10 seconds. There are three occurrences of missed warning alerts when using

CAGE CODE: 97896 SCALE: NONE SIZE: A DWG NO. PDS69000940-501 REV: C SHEET 7
HIF-1472R6(1)
 the Boeing windshear algorithm. All three occurrences of missed warning alerts for the Boeing windshear
algorithm occurred when in the horizontal, decreasing energy orientation. The significant difference is that
the missed alerts happened in the ‘takeoff' mode, during which the Boeing algorithm shifts the alerting
threshold slightly to desensitize the warning. For the three missed alerts, maximum computed shear was
within .001 of the takeoff alert threshold. The Boeing windshear algorithm will only issue an alert if the
threshold is exceeded. Therefore the missed alerts are consistent with the design of the algorithm.

TSO-C117a specifies that when the equipment is subjected to an average shear intensity of fay,x = 0.21, an
alert must be generated within 5 seconds. The EGPWS will deviate from this standard in that, when the
Honeywell Windshear algorithm is selected, alerts will be generated within 5.5 seconds when the aircraft is in
the takeoff phase of flight.

Honeywell has shown that the Honeywell windshear algorithm provides an equivalent level of safety to the
standards of the TSO. In particular, the algorithm has been shown to be performing as designed during
takeoff conditions. The Honeywell windshear algorithm deviates from the TSO by small margins. The
EGPWS windshear alerting functions meet the intent of the TSO with regard to unwanted, late or missed
alerts.

5.1.4 Environmental Qualification Per DO-160G In Lieu of DO-160B/C

Honeywell has received concurrence from the FAA that environmental qualification to DO-160G can be used
in lieu of DO-160C called out in TSO-C92c, and DO-160B called out in TSO-C117a. The use of DO-160G
will provide an equivalent level of safety.

5.2 Enhancement to GPWS

The MKV-A EGPWS provides ground proximity warnings in accordance with RTCA/DO-161A. As part of
this functionality there is an enhancement that has been implemented on specific aircraft types that support a
tactical mode of operation.

To support tactical operations on these specific aircraft types, the basic Air Transport modes 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6
can be disabled and replaced with altered modes (performance curves) to prevent nuisance alerts during
tactical operations. The use of Tactical Modes (performance curves) can only be performed on specific
aircraft types and while a dedicated input discrete, configured as part of the aircraft type, is selected by the
pilot.

If an aircraft type is selected that includes Tactical Modes, ensure that these modes are appropriate for the
aircraft operations and that appropriate airworthiness approval is granted.

 5.3 Non-TSO Functions
The MKV-A EGPWS includes functions that are not covered by a TSO approved minimum performance
standard. These functions are considered as non-TSO functions. These added non-TSO functions do not
affect or interfere with any required minimum performance standard of the MKV-A and do not violate any of
its limitations.

The following chart lists the non-TSO functions that are integrated in the MKV-A EGPWS.

5.3.1 SmartRunway® / SmartLanding® Functions

The SmartRunway® and SmartLanding® packages are a group of functions collectively known as the Runway
Awareness & Advisory System (RAAS). These functions provide alerts for taxiway takeoff and landing,
short runway takeoff and landing, takeoff with incorrect flap configuration, unstabilized approach, long
landing, and mis-set altimeter.

These functions have configurable values that can be selected by the operator. The selected values are
controlled by a configuration file that is loaded into the EGPWC. The definition and creation of this
configuration file is described in the RCD Selection Guide for the EGPWS Runway Awareness and Advisory

 7.0 Software Design

The software criticality has been determined based on the overall functional hazard classification as indicated
in the Functional Hazard Assessment (FHA) for the MKV-A Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System
(EGPWS), SSA69000940-100.

Based on the functional hazard assessment, the most severe failure category is classified as Major. In support
of the most severe system failure category the CSCIs for the EGPWS are being developed to DO-178B Level
C and D standards. Maintenance functions like CFDS/CMC, Flight History and the Keyboard interface will
be DO-178B Level D. A DO-178B Level E network stack, debugger, status monitor, telnet server, and FTP
server will be included to support debugging, diagnostics, and test, but these components will be deactivated
in revenue flight. The basis for EGPWS certification are DO-161A, DO-178B, DO-200A, TSO-C92c, TSO-
C117a, TSO-C151c, AC 25-11A, AC 25-12, AC 25-23, AC 25.1309-1A, AC 120-40, AC 120-41, 14 CFR

 8.0 Installing a MKV-A in an Aircraft Previously Fitted With a MK V EGPWS

The MKV-A EGPWC is designed as a replacement for the MK V EGPWC. The MKV-A EGPWC retains all
previous functions of the MK V EGPWC while addressing issues with out-of-production parts; and limitations
with memory, processor throughput, and input/output interfaces. It also provides updated interfaces for
software uploading and downloading which include Ethernet and USB memory stick data loading capability.

The MKV-A EGPWC is a direct replacement for the previous MK V EGPWC with part numbers 965-0976-
0XX-XXX-XXX, 965-1676-XXX (Airbus), and 965-1690-XXX (Boeing). The table below shows the part
numbers for the initial release of the MKV-A and the MK V model that it replaces.

69000942-XXX 115 VAC 965-1676-0XX 115 VAC; used on A320/330/340 aircraft

The EGPWS has a number of selectable options that are configured as part of the installation design. There
are two different installation methods to control the configuration options on the MKV-A. The first method is
to control the configuration options through program pin strapping. The second method for controlling the
configuration options is through the use of an Aircraft Personality Database (APD) or Option Selection
Software (OSS).

For details on selection of the aircraft type and program pin wiring, refer to Appendix D in the ICD, document
no. SYS69000940-700.

8.1 Retaining the Pin Program Strapping to Define Configuration Options

If a MKV-A EGPWS is being installed as a replacement for a MK V EGPWS and there are no changes that
are being made to any of the configuration option selections, then the MKV-A can be installed with no wiring
changes. The MK V can be removed and the MKV-A simply plugged into the existing installation.

8.2 Using the APD or OSS to Define Configuration Options

The Aircraft Personality Database (APD) and Option Selection Software (OSS) are configuration files that are
loaded into the unit to control the selection and activation of the selectable options. Four program pins are
used to define the aircraft type while the APD/OSS controls the selectable options. The APD definition is
contained in Appendix B-1 in the ICD. The OSS definition is contained in Appendix B-2 in the ICD.

A User’s Manual for the APD generation tool exists and is referenced in Section 3.0.

Wiring changes to an existing MK V installation are required if an APD or OSS is used. When using an APD
or OSS, all existing program pin wires must be disconnected. The program pins that select the aircraft type
must be strapped to the appropriate connections. These three program pins are TP-10A (PPCNF1), TP-10B
(PPCNF2), and TP-10C (PPCNF3). MP-4D (PPCNF4) is currently a spare but this pin must be strapped to
chassis ground to ensure that a program pin open wire fault is not reported. See ICD Appendix D-1 for the
program pin strapping.

All existing wires that are connected to MP-3A must be disconnected and re-connected to chassis ground. In
the legacy MK V installation, MP-3A provides the Program Pin Common connection, which was connected to
aircraft ground. In the MKV-A, MP-3A is used as a discrete monitor output when an APD or OSS is used.

 9.0 Feature and Option Selection

The MKV-A EGPWS provides a set of default features that are defined by Aircraft Type. The functionality of
many of these features may be tailored to suit customer preferences by appropriate program pin strapping, or
by defining the option selection via the APD.

Refer to the Product Specification for the MKV-A EGPWS for more information on the functionality, features,
and options. Refer to the Interface Control Document for the MKV-A EGPWS for configuration details of
each aircraft type.

10.0 Cockpit Annunciators

10.1.1 Lamp Drivers

The EGPWC supports two types of Ground/Open discrete outputs used to signal various discrete conditions.
Monitor Discrete outputs are used to signal failure conditions for the computer or the system. Other Lamp
Driver outputs are used to signal the warning or mode control status of the EGPW system. Short term current
limiting protection is provided on all drivers for output shorting conditions. The Monitor Discretes are biased
ON (via lamp power) when the EGPWC is not powered while installed.

Lamp Driver and Monitor Discrete Output Characteristics

Max. Open Circuit Voltage 30 VDC
Current Limit 1 Amp
Potential across “Closed” switch 1 VDC Max.

The ground going discrete may be wired together with diode isolation to produce the “OR” function
for the active low state of these signals. These outputs can also be used as discrete drivers for other
devices.

All alert/warning lamp outputs are normally a steady state switch to ground. The lamps can be individually
programmed to flash as a function of Aircraft Type only (see Interface Control Document). The flashing
outputs operate at a nominal 70 cycles per minute and 50% duty cycle.
10.1.2 Lamp Format Type 1 and 2
Two Lamp Formats are defined as a function of the aircraft type and are modifiable. The Lamp Format Type
is defined in the Configuration Data table and referenced in the Output Discrete Definitions table of each
aircraft type in the Interface Control Document.

For Lamp Format Type “1” configurations, only Mode 5 “Below Glideslope” message will activate
the alert lamp output (amber). All other messages (except Windshear) will activate the warning lamp
output (red).

For Lamp Format Type “2” configurations, only messages containing the word “Pull-Up” will activate
the warning lamp output (red). All other messages (except Windshear) will activate the alert lamp
output (amber).

Note the Mode 6 does not activate any lamp outputs, only voices.

10.1.3 Lamp Format Reversal

For those Aircraft Types defined as using Lamp Format Type “1” in the Interface Control Document
Configuration Data table (dedicated Below Glideslope annunciation), the Lamp Format Type “2” can
be optionally selected via PPCNF12 Lamp Format Reversal. This option changes the Below
Glideslope annunciation (both the Lamp Driver Discrete Output and the ARINC 429 label 274 bit 12)
to be activated for all non Pull-Up annunciations and the warning Discrete Output (both the Lamp
Driver Discrete Output and the ARINC 429 label 274 bit 13) to be activated for “Pull-Up”
annunciations only.
CAGE CODE: 97896 SCALE: NONE SIZE: A DWG NO. PDS69000940-501 REV: C SHEET 25
HIF-1472R6(1)
 In addition, if the Terrain (or Obstacle) caution discrete outputs are defined in the Aircraft Type of the
Interface Control Document to activate the GPWC warning lamp this option will move those
annunciations to the GPWC alert lamp discrete output. “Lamp Format 2 Selected” will be reported
during the Level 3 Self-Test and in the Present Status output.
10.1.4 Glideslope Cancel Discrete Output
Use of the Alternate Glideslope Cancel feature requires that there be a cockpit annunciation that the
cancel is in effect. This can be done using the Glideslope Cancel Discrete Output of the EGPWC. The
Glideslope Cancel Discrete Output activates when the Mode 5 “Glideslope” message has been
cancelled by cockpit switch.

10.1.5 Windshear Lamp Driver Discrete Outputs

The Mode 7 Reactive Windshear detection warning (red), caution (amber) and INOP Lamp Driver discrete
outputs are defined by the Interface Control Document Aircraft Type Output Discrete Definitions table.
10.1.6 Terrain/Obstacle Lamp Driver Discrete Outputs
The Terrain / Obstacle warning (red), caution (amber), inhibit/override and INOP/Not Available Lamp Driver
discrete outputs are defined by the Interface Control Document Aircraft Type Output Discrete Definitions
table.
10.1.7 Terrain Display Switching and Terrain Displayable Discrete Outputs
The EGPWC produces two discrete outputs for controlling the terrain display. They can be used either to
control picture bus switching relay(s) or connected directly to the symbol generators.

For some installations, the EGPWC produces two ‘Terrain Displayable’ discrete outputs for controlling the
display of the Terrain Mode annunciation lamps. One discrete is used for the Captain’s terrain display mode
annunciation and one for the F.O.’s terrain display mode annunciation. For each pilots’ side, if the EFIS is in
a mode which will support Terrain display, the Terrain display function is valid, and the Terrain display has
been selected (either via manual selection or auto pop-up when applicable), then the discrete will be set active
so that the Terrain Mode annunciation lamp is illuminated.

For some installations the EGPWC produces two ‘Displayable’ discrete outputs for controlling display mode
annunciation lamps. One discrete is used for the Captain’s display mode annunciation and one for the F.O.’s
display mode annunciation. Each output is routed through the picture bus switching relay to drive either
TERR mode annunciation if terrain is displayed, or WXR mode annunciation if the WXR R/T is on (displayed
or not).
10.1.8 RAAS Monitor Discrete Output
For some installations a dedicated discrete output is provided as a RAAS monitor, which is activated when
RAAS is inoperative.

 13.0 Installation Checkout

13.1 Maintenance Philosophy

Installation checkout typically consists of performing a ground test of the EGPWS. The ground test consists
of performing Self Test Levels 1, 2, 3, and 6 to verify proper installation and function of cockpit switches and
lamps. The Line Maintenance Manual (LMM) referenced in Section 3.0 provides a resource for
troubleshooting in-service and new installations of EGPWS. The LMM also provides details on other routine
EGPWS tasks such as database loading.

13.2 Ground Test

A system checkout to verify correct installation should be performed. A generic ground test procedure is
included in Appendix B of this document. This sample procedure should be tailored to the installation being
tested in order to verify the aircraft specific interfaces.

Further examples of ground tests are available from Honeywell via the EGPWS website. To obtain a copy of
a sample Ground Test Procedure, please visit www.egpws.com, select the Support tab, then Installation
Information, then Ground & Flight Test Procedures sub-page.

Also refer to the Line Maintenance Manual for more information on line maintenance operations and
troubleshooting.

13.3 Computer Status LED

A COMPUTER STATUS LED is located on the front panel of the LRU. During the power up sequence the
LED should be ignored. Once the LRU has completed its power up initialization (approximately 20 seconds
after application of power) the LED will remain illuminated and the status will be indicated by the LED color
as described in the table below. More information on the LRU Status LEDs can be found in the Line
Maintenance Manual.

 14.0 Installation Limitations

14.1 TSO-C92c Installation Note

TSO-C92c, e., requires the manufacturer to provide the following note to each person receiving for use one or
more articles manufactured under this TSO:

“The conditions and tests required for TSO approval of this article are minimum performance
standards. It is the responsibility of those desiring to install this article on or within a specific type
or class of aircraft to determine that the aircraft installation conditions are within the TSO
standards. The article may be installed only if installation of the article is approved by the
Administrator.”
14.2 TSO-C117a Installation Note
TSO-C117a, i., requires the manufacturer to provide the following note to each person receiving for use one or
more articles manufactured under this TSO:

“The conditions and tests required for TSO approval of this article are minimum performance
standards. It is the responsibility of those desiring to install this article either on or within a
specific type of class of aircraft to determine that the aircraft installation conditions are within the
TSO standards. The article may be installed only if further evaluation by the applicant documents
an acceptable installation and is approved by the Administrator.”
14.2.1 TSO-C117a Incomplete TSO Article
TSO-C117a provides minimum performance standards for airborne windshear warning and escape guidance
systems for transport category aircraft. The MKV-A EGPWS provides the airborne windshear warning
function but does not provide escape guidance, and therefore only provides part of the functionality specified
in the TSO.

An Airborne Windshear Warning System is defined in TSO-C117a, paragraph a.(4)(i), while an Airborne
Windshear Escape Guidance System is defined in paragraph a.(4)(iv). In order to provide the complete
functionality of both a windshear warning and an escape guidance system, a separate guidance system must be
installed in addition to the windshear warning function that is provided by the MKV-A EGPWS. The
windshear warning function provided by the MKV-A operates independently of any escape guidance function
and/or auto recovery system.

The windshear warning function is described in the Product Specification for the MKV-A Enhanced Ground
Proximity Warning System, document no. PDS69000940-000. Details of the windshear alerting function and
the system performance is described in section 6.5 of the product specification document.
14.2.2 Boeing Windshear Caution (Pre-Alert)
The Boeing Windshear algorithm is considered an alternate implementation of the windshear function and is
limited to specific aircraft types. The Boeing Windshear algorithm includes both a warning function and an
optional caution (pre-alert) function. The Boeing Windshear caution (pre-alert) function is not supported and
is not available in the MKV-A EGPWS on any aircraft types, including those that use the Boeing Windshear
Warning algorithm.
14.3 TSO-C151c Installation Note
Per TSO-C151c, 5.a.(3), the following statement applies to installation of the equipment covered by this
document:

“This article meets the minimum performance and quality control standards required by a
technical standard order (TSO). Installation of this article requires separate approval.”

HIF-1472R6(1)
 14.4 KCPB Installation Note
For installations using the KCPB display interface it should be noted that:
• The Check Altitude function is not supported by the MKV-A EGPWS.
• When a Vertical Situational Display (VSD) is provided simultaneously with the standard horizontal
display, the Airplane Flight Manual Supplement (AFMS) should contain the following statement;
“During a terrain warning, the horizontal and vertical terrain display may not show the same color for
threatening terrain, and the horizontal display is to be considered the primary source of terrain threat
information.” An example of a KCPB display interface capable of VSD is the Honeywell Enhanced
GNS-XLS.
More details of the KCPB display interface are provided in the EGPWS Interface Methodology document.

14.5 GPS Installation Note

Honeywell does not recommend activation of the Altimeter Monitor – Below Transition Altitude function in
EGPWS connected to Honeywell PXpress-based GPS engines (KLN-94, GNS-XES, GNS-XLS) due to
observed prolonged instances of altitude aiding. The Altimeter Monitor – Below Transition Altitude is
inoperative when the GPS source is in altitude aiding mode, during which time the crew will observe
activation of an installed RAAS INOP annunciation.

14.6 Mode 1 GPWS Alert Envelope (Raise lower cutoff from 10 feet to 130 feet)
Installation Note
The Mode 1 steep approach mode described in TSO deviations section 5.1.2 has been approved for the A320
family of aircrafts only.

14.7 Low Airspeed Monitor on 69000940-101 and 69000942-151 Installation Note

A software defect exists in the Low Airspeed alerting logic in the 69000940-101 and 69000942-151. In the
case when the Low Airspeed Alert Threshold is ramping upward and moves above Computed Airspeed, the
Low Airspeed alert is missed. The Low Airspeed Monitor should never be activated on the 69000942-151.
The MKV-A 69000940-1xx is part of the standard production installation for Boeing 737 Aircraft. The Low
Airspeed Monitor is only enabled on Boeing 737 aircraft which should not have the 69000942-151 installed.
The Low Airspeed software defect is resolved in Application Software version 02 and later.

14.8 Terrain Awareness Caution and Warning visual alerts during Self Test Installation
Note
For installations that do not have the Terrain Caution lamp configured, which are currently limited to Boeing
737 aircraft types, when the self test is executed the Terrain Warning and Terrain Caution 429 output bits are
not being set, and therefore are not being displayed on the ND. This issue is specific to the Terrain Awareness
Caution and Warning visual alerts during Self Test and is limited to the following Boeing aircraft types: 737-
600 Integrated, 737-700 Integrated, 737-800 Integrated, 737-700IGW Integrated, 737-NG Integrated, and 737-
800 Integrated MMA (P-8A).
