Acquisition edit


Go to the war table in skyhold. It does not show up in haven. Find the mission labeled disaster in the deep roads. You must have power to complete it. There is no level recommendation. Requires 16 power to start.


Plot edit


Enter the deep roads to battle monstrous darkspawn, bloodthirsty creatures that dwell beneath the surface of thedas. Explore ancient ruins and cavernous dungeons to find the cause of worsening earthquakes. In this new adventure, the inquisitor will fight new adversaries, gain epic weapons and armor, and solve one of thedas' greatest mysteries.


After the battle of haven, earthquakes begin to shake the storm coast. Mine shafts are collapsing, threatening the inquisition's lyrium trade with the dwarves of orzammar. More pressing, the quakes aren't subsiding. The inquisitor looks into the matter, meeting a dwarf shaper named valta and a lieutenant of the legion of the dead named renn. Valta believes there is an intelligence behind the quakes, which she attributes to be a titan. If they could find the titan, perhaps they could put an end to the quakes. Renn is skeptical of a titan's existence, but thinks they still need to find the quakes' source.


The inquisitor and valta uncover more of the titans' nature as they delve into the dark. Having gone beneath even the deep roads, they are ambushed by baffling assailants: the sha-brytol. They descend deeper into hostile territory and uncover consecutive wonders―a massive cavern of pure untapped lyrium, hundreds of feet high; a subterranean and even turbulent sea; and lastly, a gargantuan cavern with its own verdant ecosystem, with stalactites interconnected with bridges and dotted with structures; a full-blown civilization.


Throughout the journey, valta finds lyrium etchings similar to orzammar's memories, describing the sha-brytol and the titans. Yet once they reach the verdant cavern, there is no titan in sight. The inquisitor considers it, and is struck with an idea. The deep roads had felt different ever since they encountered the sha-brytol, almost organic; the reason they cannot see the titan is because they are within it.


At the very end of the mission, valta accidentally attacks the inquisitor with some sort of magic. Valta explains to the inquisitor that she "is pure" and wishes to remain in the titan for further study. The purity that valta describes is presumed to be the same purity that the sha-brytol have. The inquisitor will inquire what they should tell the shaparate, to which valta replies: "tell them the truth: you don't know." the inquisitor then leaves valta with more questions than answers.

Electronic module for hydraulic valves in descent of bucher hydraulics AG.


ELECTRONIC SECURITY MODULE UCM500


The UCM-500 module controls the voltage state of the valves in the hydraulic power station.


Its function is to verify that, when the cabin is with the doors open, both valves are without tension. In case of detecting that one of them is fed the module is blocked preventing the start-up of the elevator for a next start.


Through the serial input the module detects when the car is stopped with the doors open, so that when the serial input is activated the module contact (terminals 41-44) is closed to allow the contactors to be connected, and when the input is deactivated the contact opens. The module indicates this situation by means of the OUT led.


When the booth is stopped with open doors, the control valves are monitored. If it is detected that any of the valves has been fed, the module will not close its contact again, thus preventing the next start of the cabin. In addition, it indicates this fault situation with the flashing of the ERROR LED.

Automatic descent mode


This autopilot feature flies the aircraft down to a safer altitude, reducing the risk of occupant injury due to depressurization.

Following the 1st step of their aircraft emergency procedures, the crew put on their oxygen masks and commence further troubleshooting. Is bleed air coming in normally? Is an outflow valve stuck open? The passenger oxygen masks deploy automatically, which confirms that the cabin pressure has reached an abnormal level.


At this point in the story, our masked aviators become hypoxic and incapacitated because the gas they are breathing is, in reality, only compressed ambient air, which is incapable of preventing hypoxia at high altitude.


Unbeknown to our crew or their highly competent maintenance department, the last time their oxygen bottle was serviced, it was filled with compressed air only, not life-sustaining pure oxygen. Luckily for this crew, the aircraft was equipped with a “magic” system which activated and automatically flew the aircraft down to denser air, where the crew regained consciousness and reclaimed control of the aircraft.


Unbelievable story? Oxygen bottle filling errors are a documented hazard. The national transportation safety board (NTSB) accident database lists a 1997 fatal accident that resulted from an oxygen bottle mistakenly filled with ambient air. The crew of a cessna 337 used oxygen mask procedures appropriately, but they still lost consciousness, and a fatal crash ensued.


A highly publicized business jet hypoxia accident involving a learjet 35 claimed the life of pro golfer payne stewart plus 3 other passengers and the crew on oct 25, 1999. After being cleared to climb to FL390, the professional crew failed to respond to radio calls and level off.


The plane crashed more than 3 hours later in south dakota. Max altitude reached was 48,900 ft. Once the engines were starved of fuel, the plane slowed and then rolled out of control to its crash site in little more than 2 minutes.
NTSB could not rule out the possibility that the oxygen bottle contained air instead of oxygen.


According to NTSB, “the probable cause of this accident was incapacitation of the flightcrew members as a result of their failure to receive supplemental oxygen following a loss of cabin pressurization, for undetermined reasons.” this learjet 35 needed, but did not have, a magic system to automatically fly the aircraft down to thicker air.


On aug 14, 2005, a boeing 737 crashed in greece, killing all 121 passengers and crew. According to the accident report, the crew incorrectly diagnosed a cabin altitude warning as a takeoff configuration warning until succumbing to hypoxia. The plane flew on autopilot (AP) at 34,000 ft until fuel starvation occurred. They, too, needed a magic system to rescue them.

Automatic descent equipment


In reality, an automatic system to fly an aircraft down to thicker air is not magic at all. It exists today and is in widespread use on business jets. Called automatic emergency descent mode (AEDM), automatic descent mode (ADM), or emergency descent mode (EDM) by various manufacturers, the system debuted in 1997 on the gulfstream V.


The “magic” system is an AP feature which safely flies the aircraft from physiologically impairing altitudes to altitudes where both life and consciousness can be maintained, thus mitigating the risk of occupant injury due to depressurization.


Dassault falcon


On dassault falcon aircraft, ADM activates when sensed cabin altitude climbs above 15,000 ft while the aircraft is at, or above, 30,000 ft pressure altitude. Normal cabin altitude at cruise flight levels is less than 7000 ft. Falcon ADM assumes the pilots have become unconscious.


Once activated, it turns on the autothrottles – if they were not already on – and retards the engines to idle thrust. AP then varies the descent attitude to maintain MMO/VMO until reaching 15,000 ft, where the aircraft will level off and decelerate to 250 kts. This maneuver allows the flightcrew to regain consciousness and assume control of the aircraft.


While descending, the aircraft will automatically use half bank to turn left 90 degrees and then hold this new heading. The 90 degree heading change serves to alert air traffic controllers that there is something unusual about the aircraft that needs their attention, as well as serving as a way to get the descending aircraft off a particular airway or oceanic track.


If the pilots are receiving sufficient oxygen through their masks to remain conscious, they can disengage ADM with a push of the AP quick-disconnect on the yoke, or deselect AP on the guidance panel. ADM is available on all easy falcon models.


Gulfstream


Gulfstream’s AEDM system works as described above, except that the aircraft must be flying above 40,000 ft for AEDM to trigger. According to heidi fedak, gulfstream’s director of corporate communications and media relations, “[gulfstream] introduced AEDM on the GV in 1997 because its max altitude was 51,000 ft, requiring us to develop a method of addressing rapid depressurization.”


All in-production gulfstream models are equipped. The G500, G600 and G700 all go a step further than earlier AEDM implementations in that the airbrakes will open when AEDM activates.


Textron and embraer


ADM is standard on textron’s cessna citation sovereign+, latitude, and longitude, and it’s an option on the caravan and grand caravan, says christina walser, communications specialist at cessna citation business jets.


Textron aircraft that are not outfitted with autothrottles are equipped with EDM, which is similar to ADM but lacks the ability to automatically reduce engine power. Current production aircraft that feature standard EDM include cessna citation M2, CJ3+, CJ4, and XLS+.


Embraer delivers its phenom 100EV/300E, legacy 450/500, and praetor 500/600 business jets with ADM as standard equipment.


Garmin’s take on ADM is part of the company’s autonomí suite of autonomous flight solutions, and is called EDM. Autonomí, pronounced as “autonomy,” is an overarching term that encompasses layers of safety. EDM is built into garmin’s integrated flightdecks – those containing both garmin avionics and garmin AP – and it’s typically standard in pressurized turboprops and jets.


Interestingly, the non-pressurized cirrus SR20/SR22 light singles also have EDM. In non-pressurized cockpits, the garmin avionics monitor pilot consciousness. If no avionics interactions are sensed for a set time, the avionics will prompt the pilot. If this prompt goes unacknowledged, EDM will activate and the aircraft will head down to thicker air.


According to bill stone, garmin’s senior manager of aviation business development, the company’s work on EDM and its new emergency autoland mode predates payne stewart’s accident, but that tragedy solidified the need for autonomous flight solutions.


What ADM won’t do


As with any airplane system, it is important to understand its limitations as well as the capabilities. Most ADM systems will not engage while the aircraft is being hand flown. With a few exceptions, ADM will not automatically deploy airbrakes, nor change the transponder code to 7700, nor transmit mayday on either the radio frequency or data link.


The system will not change altimeter setting as the aircraft descends through transition level, nor will it keep the aircraft from impacting terrain that happens to poke above the designed level-off altitude.

Does ADM work?


A few years ago, ADM was installed on my company’s aircraft. The owner asked, “how do we know it works as described?” so we set out to satisfy the owner’s question. We read the literature and trained with ADM in the simulator. In the sim, ADM worked as advertised, of course. How to functionally check the system? How do owners know that they are getting what they paid for?


We created a functional test plan that would be conducted off florida’s gulf coast on an empty leg. The plan was to depressurize the cabin by depressing the DUMP push-button, but falcon 2000LX only allows dump to cabin altitude of 14,500 ft.


To raise the cabin further, to the 15,000-ft trigger threshold, we would need to shut off all incoming pressurization air. We would follow the falcon maintenance procedure for the inflight check of cabin sealing, which instructs the operator to turn off all incoming air, and then monitor cabin altitude.


We planned to turn off the cabin oxygen system to prevent passenger oxygen mask deployment and have the pilots wear oxygen masks to eliminate the risk of hypoxia.


Airspace coordination was a challenge because there was no way to instantly trigger ADM to function, and because of the rapid descent and 90-degree turn. We worked with miami center for a southbound track through gulf of mexico warning areas that were not in active use by the military. We coordinated a clearance to descend and turn at pilot’s discretion (since there is no clearance for “descend at airplane’s discretion”).


Observations


The cabin leak rate on the falcon was amazingly slow. With all flow into the cabin turned off, the cabin altitude took over 2 minutes to rise from 14,500 ft to the trigger altitude of 15,000 ft. When ADM activated, the pilots saw amber flashing ADM indications in both the vertical and horizontal flight mode annunciator windows as expected.


ADM is much more benign than the emergency descent practiced in the simulator for 2 reasons. First, the airbrakes do not deploy automatically, thus the descent rate is similar to an everyday descent. Second, the turn is done gracefully at half bank. ADM worked as expected, giving the owner confidence in the newly-installed software.


Prior to ADM installation we would routinely hand fly the aircraft to cruise altitude to maintain hand flying proficiency. With ADM protection only available when AP is engaged, we changed our standard operating procedure to engage AP by 30,000 ft to gain full ADM protection.


Gulfstream’s heidi fedak reports that gulfstream is aware of 2 AEDM activations in its 22 years of operational service. Do you have knowledge of any saves? If so, consider reporting the event to your aircraft manufacturer, NASA, or FAA.


If your oxygen system was inadvertently filled with pressurized air, how would you know until it was too late? Normal preflight tests only check for flow of gas, not gas chemistry. A simple and inexpensive pulse oximeter device could help.


While breathing normal cockpit air at cruise altitude, the pilot can self-administer a pulse oximeter reading, and then breathe 100% oxygen through the oxygen mask for 60–90 seconds before taking a second pulse oximeter reading. Breathing 100% oxygen, the pilot will see a noticeable increase in pulse oximeter reading (likely to 100% blood oxygen saturation).
