A. System FunctionThe door warning system gives warnings to the flight crew if a door or an emergency exit is not locked.
B. System ComponentsThe primary components of the system are the:
- Micro-switches
- Main-entrance door time-delay-relay
- Door-warning reset switch
C. System Operation (Ref. Fig. 1)
The micro-switches give a ground signal to the Central Annunciator Panel (CAP) when they operate. The door locking and release mechanisms operate the micro-switches.
The time delay relays allow sufficient time for the door to be closed before the door warning system operates.
