Message page contains 
messages that do not 
indicate a functional failure 
on the system status page. 

N/A

 

The following internal tests do not create a fail message 
in the system status page.  

  Configuration Module Test 

  Configuration Module Configuration Validity 

  Mutual Suppression Bus Self-Test 

  Over-Temperature Monitor (in air) 

  Power Fail Monitor 

Although no immediate loss of function is occurring, an 
undesired condition is taking place.  At the earliest 
convenience, perform the following action: 

1.  Try clearing the failure by restarting the unit by 

tapping the Restart button (or cycling power).  

Contact L3 Field Service before removal of unit. 

Unit does not operate in 
normal mode and starts in 
Bootloader or maintenance 
mode.  
MSG button on screen. 

N/A

 

The following internal hardware test failures cause the 
unit to automatically reset. This happens without cycling 
power to the unit. If the hardware failure being detected 
does not clear, a system fail message is sent.

Contact L3 Field Service before removal of unit. 

Display indicator   GROUND 
TEST  

Traffic

 

This indication is shown in the upper right hand corner of 
the traffic screen. It is shown when the unit is connected 
to the MPC and the Lynx MAT is active with the ground 
test function started. 

Display indicator TRK 
(Track) 

Traffic

 

Indicates that the traffic display orientation is true track. 

1.  This is a normal condition used for pilot information.
