System Description
1.30.2 Exceedance Details
1.30.3 Exporting to SD Card
Exportable parameters are dependent on aircraft type.
1. Insert an SD card into top/left slot.
2. Power on GDU.
3. Go to the Logs page.
4. Tap Export Data Log .
Select an exceedance file to
view gauge details.
Duration and highest value
are useful for determining
whether maintenance
actions are required.
The provided values of
other engine parameters
may be useful when
determining if an
exceedance resulted from
sensor testing or failure.
Exceedance Log Data
•
Gauge and exceeded parameter
•
Date & time of occurrence
•
Duration (total amount of time the
parameter exceeded the limit, which
includes the grace period time)
•
Highest gauge value
•
Power cycle
•
Max parameter value during exceedance
period
•
Parameter value at end of exceedance
•
Value of other engine parameters at
beginning of exceedance
•
Any interruptions (e.g., power loss)
•
Completeness of data
•
Alert state (i.e., acknowledged or
unacknowledged)
The GDU uses an internal
circular log to store
exceedances entries for
100 power cycles that have
had an exceedance. The
user should periodically
export the exceedance log
to SD card.
If date and time
parameters are not
available (e.g., during
engine start when the
navigator has yet to
acquire a GPS signal),
use the power cycle
parameter value to
narrow down the time
of occurrence.
