A system and method for managing a vehicle is provided that includes at least one sensor, a certified processor, a database, a computer network, and a user portal. The at least one sensor is operable to generate data indicative of a critical condition of the vehicle. The certified processor in communication with the computer network and is operable to receive, process and store the data generated by the at least one sensor. The database is in communication with the computer network and is operable to selectively download and store a replica of the data stored on the certified processor via the computer network. The user portal is in communication with the computer network and is operable to enable a user to download, via the computer network, selected portions of the data stored on the certified processor or selected portions of the replica data stored on the database.
摘要:
A method of aircraft maintenance involves storing part information relating to an aircraft part on the aircraft part. The part information is wirelessly transmitting from the aircraft part to a receiver. A note of a change relating to the aircraft part is made. The part information with the note of the change relating to the aircraft part is electronically stored at a location remote from the aircraft part.

Systems and methods for defining information provided by aircraft are provided. An exemplary method, involving an aircraft that is operative to provide information in a first report format, includes: communicating information corresponding to a second report format definition to the aircraft, wherein the information corresponding to the second report format definition is received at the aircraft via wireless communication; and receiving, from the aircraft, information complying with the second report format definition.
摘要:
Electronic circuitry is disclosed for interfacing with a plurality of two-position switches to determine if each switch is opened, closed or faulty to some extent. Each switch is connectable in series with a pull-up resistor and between two different voltage values. The switch provides an output voltage at the connection of one terminal of the switch with the pull-up resistor. This switch voltage is presented to both an inverting input of a first comparator and a non-inverting input of a second comparator. The non-inverting input of the first comparator has a reference voltage of a certain value applied thereto, while the inverting input of the second comparator has a reference voltage of a certain value also applied thereto, the reference voltage values being different so as to define a "window" or "dead band" region of voltage. The switch output voltage is compared to the reference voltages on the two comparators. If the switch is closed, the comparator outputs will assume certain states. On the other hand, if the switch is opened, the comparator outputs will assume the opposite states. Finally, if the switch is faulty such that a finite impedance value is developed across the terminals of the switch, the voltage value will then be generated which causes both comparator outputs to assume the same state, thereby indicating a faulty switch to subsequent signal processing circuitry.
