SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The NMS (CMA-9000) is a self contained, cockpit mounted, radio and flight management
system. It consists of a colour display for alphanumeric and graphic data, and a keyboard for
data entry, data editing, and system control. Information from the NMS is displayed on the
NMS display, on the PFD’s (Primary Flight Displays) and on the ND’s (Navigation Displays).
To indicate the unit status and also the operational status of the various connected sensors a
dedicated MSG RECALL page is provided.
The NMS is capable of receiving information from external navigation sensors including
ADC, ADF, AHRS, DME, GPS and NAV (VOR/ILS).
The NMS also supports digital map applications (e.g. Euronav III/IV/IV+). Additional outputs
for MASTER CAUTION and the separate discrete NPA indication are provided for status in-
formation.
Waypoints and computed navigation guidance information are generated in both geograph-
ic and track-related reference frames for display to the pilot. It also provides LNAVsteering
suitably-formatted for use by an Automatic Flight Control System for aircraft flight guidance
in the horizontal plane.
The NMS also provides manual tuning capability for two COM, two NAV, one ADF system
and (if installed) two MODE S TRANSPONDERS. A mobile phone can be controlled by the
NMS (optional).
In that case a phonebook library, a short message service and voice call handling capabili-
ties may be implemented. Through this mobile phone as an interface box the NMS is also
capable to control tactical radios (e.g. FUG 8B, FUG 9, UHF ARC 164). Via radio manage-
ment system (RMS) a sat–com installation is supported (optional).
The NMS provides guidance using a max bank angle of 18
°
which is related to a standard
rate turn at 120 kts. The autopilot however, limits the guidance to standard rate turn depen-
dent on TAS. A manual override of autopilot is possible at any time.
If the NMS is configured with the maximum rollrate of 4
°
/sec, slight roll oscillations may be
noticeable during turns with autopilot engaged. In general the rollrate is set to 3
°
/sec or 3,5
°
/
sec.
