| How many channels does the Cabin pressure controller have? | two |
| Can the Cabin Pressure controller be manually controlled? | Yes |
| How can the outflow valve be controlled? | Manually or automatically |
| What does the outflow valve do? | It controls how much air from the cabin is let out to the surrounding environment |
| When does the negative pressure relief valve open? | -.5 psi |
| Is the negative pressure relief valve controlled by the CPCS? | NO |
| What is the purpose of the negative pressure relief valve? | it protect the cabin from negative differential pressure damage |
| When does the Positive pressure relief valve open? | 8.6 PSI |
| What is the purpose of the positive pressure relief valve? | it protect the cabin from positive pressure differential pressure damage |
| Is the static port electrically heated? | yes |
| What does the static port do? | It senses environmental pressure for the safety valve |
| In Manual mode does the cabin automatically depressurize on landing? | No |
| Will the dump function work if the Cabin Pressure Controller is in manual mode? | no |
| Tell me about the ground mode operation of the CPCS | OFV is set open fully, Cabin pressure is set to .01 PSI less than ambient pressure it allows 500FPM and -300FPM change rate |
| When does the CPCS activate taxi mode> | WOW, engines 60% N2 or higher, doors closed |
| When does ground mode activate for the CPCS? | Weight on wheels status on the ground Engines running below takeoff thrust |
| How does the CPCS taxi mode operate? | Cabin pressure is set to ambient pressure plus an offset of .11PSID Cabin altitude change rate is -300 FPM |
