PRIMARY CTL SPEED BRAKE & LIFT DUMPING D/O (3)

SPEED BRAKE FUNCTION AND LOGIC
The speed brake function is commanded in the flight phase following a
pilot's action on the speed brake lever. The surfaces ensuring this function
are spoilers 1 through 6, being deflected depending on the lever position.
The roll order has priority over the speed brake function. When the sum
of roll and speed brake commands, relative to one surface, is greater than
the maximum possible deflection, the symmetrical surface is retracted
until the difference between the two surfaces is equal to the roll order.
If the Angle Of Attack (AOA) protection, or the Alpha Floor protection,
or the Low Speed protection, or if the Maneuver Load Alleviation (MLA)
function are activated or if one the Thrust lever is above MCT with speed
brakes extended, the speed brakes are automatically retracted. The
retraction is announced by an ECAM message. After inhibition, to extend
speed brakes again, the lever must be reset for at least 5 seconds. The
pitching moment associated to speed brake extension or retraction is
compensated by the pitch control laws and the switching made to alternate
or direct laws does not affect the speed brake function.
For spoilers 1, 2, 3 and 5, when one surface is not available on one wing,
the symmetrical one is inhibited. For spoilers 4 and 6, the faulty
servo-control is inhibited while the symmetrical one remains active for
the roll control only.

LIFT DUMPING (GROUND SPOILERS) FUNCTION AND
LOGIC
The lift dumping function is automatic and it is activated upon landing
to increase the breaking efficiency. Extension of all spoilers is achieved
when the A/C is on ground with ground spoilers armed or reverse selected.
Ground spoilers are ARMED when the speed brake control lever is pulled
up. When the logic conditions which determine the lift dumper extension
are fulfilled, a deflection order is sent to spoilers 1 to 6. If only one MLG
shock absorber is compressed, the phased lift dumping function is
activated at reverse selection.

SERVO CONTROL PRINCIPLES
ACTIVE MODE
In active mode, the spoiler servo control actuator is hydraulically
supplied. According to the command signal to the servo valve, the
spoiler surface will extend or retract.

SERVO CONTROL PRINCIPLES (continued)
BIASED MODE
The servo control actuator is pressurized. Due to an electrical failure,
the command signal is lost. The biased servo valve pressurizes the
retraction chamber. The spoiler actuator stays pressurized and the
spoiler remains retracted.

LOCKED MODE
In locked mode, the hydraulic pressure is lost. The surface can only
be moved towards the retracted position, pushed by aerodynamic
forces.

MANUAL MODE
To be unlocked, the servo control actuator must be pressurized. The
maintenance unlocking device can be engaged thanks to a key
equipped with a red flame. This tool cannot be removed when the
servo control is in maintenance mode. Once the maintenance unlocking
device is engaged the spoiler surface can be raised manually for
inspection purposes.
