Evolutionary system for monitoring maintenance on aircraft equipment, comprises EEPROM which stores with restricted access a reconfigurable table of parameter addresses and test reports

摘要

A component or set of components (40) is protected by an added feature (40a) which includes a microprocessor (400), bus and sensor/actuator ports (402,403), a clock (404), random access memory (405) and an EEPROM (406). The EEPROM stores the operating program, details of equipment monitoring, built in test equipment data, tables defining the latter data and tables defining tests and pre diagnostics
