### ALTN MODE
33+
34+
In ALTN mode, the N1 parameter is the primary engine parameter. However, the THR parameter remains displayed on the EWD.
35+
36+
In ALTN mode, the TPR control loop is lost. The FADEC reverts to N1 control and uses the current N1 to control the
37+
engine thrust.
38+
39+
The FADEC computes the N1 command as a function of the thrust levers position, speed/mach, altitude, and temperature.
40+
41+
An automatic reversion to ALTN mode occurs when some engine parameters are not available. Automatic reversion to ALTN
42+
mode occurs when the P30 or the EGT engine parameter is failed.
43+
44+
When the FADEC operates in ALTN mode:
45+
46+
- The A/THR remains available
47+
- The thrust rating modes and the corresponding thrust rating limit are available, except flexible and derated takeoff
48+
modes
49+
- The maximum available thrust at takeoff and go-around is reduced. The maximum available thrust is reduced by 4\%.
50+
- The soft go-around function is available.
