Warning Systems<br />

EICAS Messages: (continued)<br />

Takeoff configuration warning messages<br />

When a takeoff roll is started, the following warning messages may appear:<br />

CONFIG FLAPS if the flaps are not in a takeoff position.<br />

CONFIG GEAR CTR if the body gear is not centered.<br />

CONFIG PARK BRK if the parking brake is set.<br />

CONFIG SPOILERS if the speedbrakes are not down.<br />

CONFIG STAB if the stabilizer trim is not within the green band.<br />

A takeoff roll is considered started when all of the following conditions are true:<br />

+ EEC indicates engines 2 and 3 thrust is in takeoff range<br />

+ Engines 2 and 3 reversers are retracted<br />

+ More than 2 engine fuel control switches are set to RUN<br />

+ Takeoff alert is enabled<br />

Landing configuration warning message<br />

The warning message CONFIG GEAR appears in flight when the landing gear is<br />

not down and locked, and 140 seconds have passed since the initial gear retraction,<br />

and either of these conditions is true:<br />

• Any thrust lever is at idle and RA is below 800 ft<br />

• Flap lever is set to 25 or 30<br />

When the flap lever is set to 25 or 30, the siren for the CONFIG GEAR message can<br />

be silenced only by the gear alert override switch. Otherwise, it can be silenced also<br />

by the master warning reset switches.<br />

Stall Warning:<br />

A stick shaker motor is attached to each pilot’s control column (stick) to provide a<br />

tactile warning in case of an impending stall. The MAWEA contains two identical<br />

stall warning computers, each controlling both stick shaker motors.<br />
