Battery sound cutoff and EICAS / IAPS sounds
-
Hello,
When the aircraft is loaded, battery sound cuts the first time it is turned on in the session.
Additionally, when turning on the EICAS from its own battery, I can't hear the sound that it makes when it is turned on from the normal battery supply, is this intended behavior or a known issue?Thanks for your time.

@JuanCaviator I'm very sorry, but I'm not quite sure what you mean in either of these cases. Do you think you could describe them a little more, or perhaps share a video?

I wasn't able to reproduce the first one, but I managed to capture a short video for the EICAS sound.
When the main battery is on, powering up the EICAS produces some "computer sounds". However, when powering up the EICAS from its own battery, there is no sound at all. Maybe it is intended to work like that?https://youtu.be/p2X2E2NqmPM

Thanks for the explanation. Yes, that is the intended behavior that I recall from the real aircraft. The sound comes from the IAPS card cage, which is located in the floor of the closet behind the copilot's seat, but I do not believe this part of the avionics system is powered from the EICAS standby battery, as this functionality is mostly designed for backup engine instrumentation and CAS, not flight management systems.
