Pla Quadrant Has Two Clearly Identified Positions

This document provides information about engine power management settings and conditions for arming the automatic takeoff power control system (ATPCS) on an aircraft. It states that at the white marked position on the power lever quadrant, the control system delivers maximum rated power corresponding to the mode selected, such as takeoff (TO), maximum continuous thrust (MCT), climb (CLB), or cruise (CRZ). It describes the arming conditions for the ATPCS in both ground and flight situations. It also notes that if the affected engine fails within 2.15 seconds, uptrim is energized on the remaining engine to allow for some reversing action without autofeathering, and throttle reduction within this period will disarm the mode

PLA quadrant has TWO CLEARLY IDENTIFIED POSITIONS

Position 1 WHITE MARK


At this position marked by a notch the control system delivers max rated power
corresponding to the mode selected.
TO : P = 2475 SHP
MCT : P = 2500 SHP
CLB : P = 2192 SHP
CRZ : P = 2132 SHP

ARMING CONDITIONS FOR ATPCS

ATPCS pb ON
Both PL above 49
Both torques above 46%
Aircraft on ground
PWR MGT selector TO

Aircraft in flight

Nothing happens on the affected engine for 2.15 seconds, but uptrim is
energized on the remaining engine. This feature enables to perform an
acceleration stop without having autofeather in order to benefit from some
reversing action on the failed engine.
In this case, the throttle reduction occuring within 2.15 seconds period
automatically disarms the mode.
Once the mode has been triggered, its cancellation can only result from
either :
-- PWR MGT other than TO, or
-- ATPCS Pb set to OFF, or
-- both PL retarded.

MGT to MCT position after relight in order to be able to UNFEATHER

They operate feathering control, HP fuel shut off valves and propellers speed (NP),
controlled by PVM when in blade angle governing propulsion mode.
-- AUTO position controls propeller speed through PWR MGT selector position.
-- 100 % OVRD position sets manually Np MAX.
