Simulator levels

Information

Entry No.
General simulator requirements
2.d. ...........

The simulator must provide for manual and
automatic testing of simulator hardware and
software programming to determine compliance with simulator objective tests as prescribed in Attachment 2 of this appendix.
An SOC is required

2.e. ...........

The relative responses of the motion system,
visual system, and flight deck instruments
must be measured by latency tests or transport delay tests. Motion onset must occur
before the end of the scan of that video
field. Instrument response may not occur
prior to motion onset. Test results must be
within the following limits:

2.e.1. ........

Response must be within 150 milliseconds of
the helicopter response.
Response must be within 100 milliseconds of
the helicopter response.

2.e.2. ........

This may include an automated system, which
could be used for conducting at least a portion of the QTG tests. Automatic  - flagging - 
of out-of-tolerance situations is encouraged.

The intent is to verify that the simulator provides instrument, motion, and visual cues
that are like the helicopter responses within
the stated time delays. It is preferable motion onset occur before the start of the visual scene change (the start of the scan of
the first video field containing different information). For helicopter response, acceleration in the appropriate corresponding rotational axis is preferred.

2.f. ............

The simulator must simulate brake and tire
failure dynamics (including antiskid failure, if
appropriate).
An SOC is required. ..........................................

X

The simulator should represent the motion (in
the appropriate axes) and the directional
control characteristics of the helicopter when
experiencing simulated brake or tire failures.

2.g. ...........

The aerodynamic modeling in the simulator
must include:.
(1) Ground effect,
(2) Effects of airframe and rotor icing (if applicable),
(3) Aerodynamic interference effects between
the rotor wake and fuselage,
(4) Influence of the rotor on control and stabilization systems,
(5) Representations of settling with power, and
(6) Retreating blade stall.
An SOC is required.

See Attachment 2 of this appendix for further
information on ground effect.

2.h. ...........

The simulator must provide for realistic mass
properties, including gross weight, center of
gravity, and moments of inertia as a function
of payload and fuel loading.
An SOC is required.

Equipment Operation

3.a. ...........

All relevant instrument indications involved in
the simulation of the helicopter must automatically respond to control movement or
external disturbances to the simulated helicopter; e.g., turbulence or windshear. Numerical values must be presented in the appropriate units.

3.b. ...........

Communications, navigation, caution, and
warning equipment must be installed and
operate within the tolerances applicable for
the helicopter being simulated.

X

3.c. ...........

Simulated helicopter systems must operate as
the helicopter systems operate under normal, abnormal, and emergency operating
conditions on the ground and in flight.
