L-1011 Trainer Installation: Indicator Lighting (Overhead Wiring Tests)

L-1011 CPT Installation: Indicator Power

Now with the AC and DC systems finished we can start powering system panels.  The first set of panels are the two eye-brow panels below the overhead panel and two panels on the right hand side column of the overhead panel. Below is an image that shows the location of the 4 panels that are now connected to the PILOT INDICATOR LIGHT bus.

The contrast on the switchlights is a bit high and are hard to photograph. Eventually the indicator brightness will be selectable between BRT and DIM. However, this feature has not been implemented yet. Over the next few sessions we will power up all of the elements on the Lockheed L-1011 overhead panel.

L-1011 CPT Installation: DC Buildout - Annunciator and Switchlight Dim/Bright Bus

L-1011 CPT - BRT/DIM Light Bus Test

Here is a test of the DIM/BRT Annunciator and Switchlight bus. The switch light used for the test is the IDG Disconnect Switch. The LOW PRESS indication is for the oil-pressure in the IDG. Anyway, annunciator power comes from Circuit Breaker CB3G16 which in turn receives power from the DC Essential Bus.
