If no 2 is lost no effect, just no backup. If no 1 is lost no 2 is active and HOT AIR / TRIM valves close. No more flow setting or optimization via trim valves increasing / decreasing temp #Zone controller: if no 1 is lost temp is 24c and pack one is for cockpit only. pack two for cabin.

No 2 is now active #Pack controller: if both channels lost anti-ice valve stabilizes setting between 5c and 30c within 6 min. ECAM signals of corresponding pack lost #ACM: if compressor or turbine fails affected pack operates in heat exchanger mode. Warm air enters via pack valve then to prim heat exchanger. Then most of air goes via bypass valve downstream of ACM. Reduces pack flow. Temp regulated #ACM: by bypass valve and ram air inlet. Trim valves modulate hot air. Lower hot air supply. #HOT AIR valve: failed open, no effect. failed close no optimized regulation. Pack one supplies cockpit air temp and pack two supplies averaged cabin temp. #TRIM valve: failed stops optimization of associated zone #PACKS: if pb on pack is on unless ENG START conditions, compressor outlet ovht, fire or ditching, or upstream press blw minimum. FAULT means control valve disagrees with selected pos or pack outlet / compressor outlet ovht #ENG start: if xfeed clsd, bleed supply valve on starting engine closes when mode selector goes to IGN or CRK (ie if starting from both off, no pack air) #ENG start: valve remains closed while start valve is open, N2 is less than 50, and MASTER is on or MAN START pb is on #ENG start: if xfeed open, both valves close even if just starting one engine.
