Hornet Faults

[Habu_69]

I have the following faults constantly displayed on left MFD 1: ADV-    BIT    FPAS

How can I clear them?

BIT - You've got an unresolved BIT Item on the BIT page. It will be flashing, press STOP to stop flash. Or better yet, verify that system is on / operative.

 

FPAS - Probably because the FPAS system can't calculate fuel flow when in afterburner. Go to mil power or less.

The FPAS advisory will appear at any time the system can't calculate the HOME FUEL caution. Calculated fuel remaining to any waypoint can only be done at true airspeeds less than Mach 0.9.

This.

Side note:  If you are going to be landing at a different location that your initial position - you can enter those coordinates as a waypoint (via HSI), then in FPAS display, press the OSB that corresponds with the 'up arrow' and select your new home plate (the number between the down and up arrows indicates waypoint number).  For example, if waypoint 5 is your new home plate - press the up arrow (on FPAS display) until the number between the down and up arrows shows 5.  (This is on the bottom right of the FPAS display).


Cheers,
