    FLIGHT FOL N°: 170-026/15

    DATE: MAY 22, 2015


    OPERATIONS Revision 1 - APR 04, 2018
    LETTER

    DOCUMENT EFFECTIVITY: ALL EMBRAER 170/175/190/195


    AIRPLANE MODELS

    This document does not constitute an operational approval. If Local


    Regulatory Authority approval is required, it should be obtained by the
    Operator.
    In case of any conflict between this FOL and any mandatory
    requirements issued by the Local Regulatory Authority, including but
    not limited to Airworthiness Directives, the Local Regulatory Authority
    document/orientation shall prevail.

    SUBJECT: Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast


    (ADS-B) and Enhanced Surveillance Transponder
    Issue

    REASON: To inform operators about erroneous barometric


    vertical rate data broadcast on airplanes fitted with
    Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast OUT
    (ADS-B OUT) and Enhanced Surveillance
    Transponder.

    DESCRIPTION:

    Embraer received field reports of erroneous barometric vertical rate


    data broadcast on airplanes fitted with Automatic Dependent
    Surveillance-Broadcast OUT (ADS-B OUT) and Enhanced
    Surveillance Transponder.
    The investigation revealed that this issue may occur due to the NIM
    (Network Interface Module) power cycle, on ground before takeoff, or
    by a NIM reset in flight. In those cases, the configuration request sent
    by transponder to NIM is missed causing the transponder to receive
    the enhanced surveillance data in incorrect format and broadcast the
    last valid barometric vertical rate latched in its memory.
    In the aforementioned situation, the transponder will also set the
    enhanced surveillance parameters to invalid. The issue can be
    detected only by ATC or other ADS-B receivers.

    LETTER

    Further details about vertical rate issue are described in Honeywell


    SIL D201505000001. It can be downloaded from the Honeywell
    website (https://myaerospace.honeywell.com) as described below:
    1. If it is the first access, create the Honeywell ID by selecting
    “Register”;
    2. Log into the Honeywell web page;
    3. Select “Technical Publications” on my applications page;
    4. Search for the related Honeywell’s document and download it.

    OPERATING INFORMATION:

    The following workaround is intended to help minimizing the


    occurrences of this issue.

    - In case a vertical rate issue notification is received from the ATC,


    switch to the cross-side transponder:

     Push the RADIO function key on the MCDU.

     Select LSK 5R on the RADIO page 1/2 to access the


    TCAS/XPDR page.

     On LSK 5L on the TCAS/XPDR page 1/2 select the cross-side


    transponder.

    - After landing, cycle the affected transponder CB as described below


    or power down/up the airplane:

     On the MCDU (CB MENU/ CB BY SYS/ NAV), Open


    TRANSPONDER 1 or 2 CB (as required by the affected
    transponder reported), wait 10 s, then close it.

    SNL 170-34-0048R00 and SNL 190-34-0047R00 have been released


    in order to inform the maintenance personnel.
