Nav ias discreapancy

Hi Takata:

Just found out why the NAV IAS DISCREAPANCY message might be suspressed.
(Not completely sure, because we don't know the exact ECAM software status but this one is dated 08/NOV/06, so could be valid at that date)

1// The NAV IAS DISCREAPANCY can be triggered by a ADR 1 or ADR 2 IAS FAULT FOR PRIM status (as detected by FCDC1 or 2).
ADR 3 status comes only into view when ADR 3 data switch is out of the normal position)
2// The NAV IAS DISCREAPANCY can be triggered by a FROZEN PITOT Status (as detected by FCDC1 or 2).

But both 1// or 2// conditions to trigger the NAV IAS DISCREAPANCY message can be suspressed by certain system conditions being TRUE.

a/ any Dual or Triple ADR Failures (NAV ADR x+y(+z) FAIL messages not mentioned)
b/ All ADRs INOP [Switched Off] (not mentioned)
c/ NAV ADR DISAGREE present (not before ca. 02:12:00)

d1/ ADR CAS 1 or CAS 2 or CAS 3 NCD(or INValid) for reference 1//: IAS Fault for Prim status

d2/ Any DUAL CAS NCD(or INV) for reference 2//: Frozen pitot status

With this information I need to rethink what I posted before, maybe you could find some justification in your point of view.
