Definitions

  • connection interface is formed to only allow engagement between a test instrumentation device and corresponding aircraft and the instrumentation device is provided with the identity of the equipment type configuration that it is connected to, in order to perform an appropriate test sequence .
  • the informational/positional guide described above may be disposed in a test instrumentation device for testing an aircraft component.
  • the test instrumentation device is provided with a microprocessor.
  • the microprocessor is formed to receive the electronic signal from the aircraft equipment configuration sensor, for correlating the electronic signal to aircraft equipment configuration specific test sequence data.
  • test instrumentation device the most expensive test system component
  • connecting cables which are relatively low cost
  • FIG. 1 there is depicted an aircraft test instrumentation device 20. Disposed in the aircraft test instrumentation device 20 is a test instrumentation interface 12 provided with a key engagement member 16 and a plurality of data pins 26. Similarly, in Figure 2, there is depicted an aircraft testing cable 22 with cable connector 24 in which there is disposed a test instrumentation interface 12 provided with an informational/positional guide 10 and a plurality of data pins 26. It is contemplated that such an aircraft testing cable 22 would be utilized to link testing data between an aircraft or component thereof and an aircraft test instrumentation device (symbolically depicted in Figure 1, as aircraft test instrumentation device 20) .
  • Figure 4 depicts an exploded view of the key engagement member 16 as would be seen in both Figures 1 and 2.
  • the aircraft equipment configuration identification circuity 36 identifies the particular electrical contact pad (34a, 34b, 34c, 34d, 34e or 34f) in electrical communication with the electrical contact surface 32 and generates an electrical signal in response to the identification of the contact pad (34a, 34b, 34c, 34d, 34e or 34f) . It is contemplated that the electrical contact pads 34 may be imprinted on circuit board 44 as depicted in Figure 9.
  • a microprocessor 38 is preferably provided and is formed to receive the electronic signal from the aircraft equipment configuration sensor 18, for correlating the electronic signal to aircraft equipment configuration specific test sequence data.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un guide d'information/de positionnement (10) pouvant être placé dans une interface (12) pour instruments de bord qui fonctionne avec au moins une clé de guidage mécanique (14) conçue pour assurer le contact entre le guide et l'interface, cette clé de guidage (14) présentant une orientation spécifique à un type particulier de configuration d'équipement de bord, et ledit guide (10) étant en outre muni d'un élément (16) destiné à entrer en contact avec la clé. Cet élément de contact avec la clé (16) est conçu de manière à pouvoir entrer en contact avec la clé de guidage (14) et à être placé selon diverses orientations angulaires, afin de faciliter le contact avec cette clé de guidage (14). Cet élément de contact avec la clé (16) est par ailleurs muni d'un capteur (18) permettant de détecter le type de configuration d'équipement de bord suite à la détection de l'orientation dudit élément de contact avec la clé, ce capteur permettant par ailleurs de générer un signal électronique une fois identifiée l'orientation dudit élément de contact avec la clé (16).
