-
Connect the AE300-Wizard to the CAN bus of the engine to be updated.
-
Load the desired (usually the latest) flash container (FCT) file into the AE300-Wizard.
-
The AE300-Wizard will then use the information from the FCT to check if it is possible to
update the EECU with this specific FCT.
-
The AE300-Wizard checks required items to accept the software update. Relevant items
are, e.g. the engine type (i.e. E4-A or E4-B), the HW version, the SW version and the
Wizard version.
-
If any of these checks reveal an unsupported situation, the AE300-Wizard will inform the
maintenance technician about it and will abort the update session. There is no option to
allow an operator to force an update erroneously or willingly.
-
The update can only be performed on a stopped engine, therefore the AE300-Wizard will
check for “aircraft on ground” and a stopped engine before allowing an update.
-
If the checks show a supported configuration, the actual software update process will
commence.
-
In the “Flash progress information” field, the AE300-Wizard informs the maintenance
technician about the steps of the update process:
○
Step 1: To document the engine situation before the attempted software update an
engine log will automatically be saved under the name:
“
Flash_Autosave_Engine_Log_YYYYMMDD_hhmmss.ae3
”.
○
Step 2: ECU-A will be updated.
○
Step 3: ECU-B will be updated.
○
Step 4: The FCMs of both ECUs will be checked for flash memory errors.
○
Step 5: The maintenance technician will be informed about success or failure of the
update process and whether or not the engine is in a serviceable condition. Also,
the number of error entries per ECU prior to the software update and the name of
the “Autosave_Engine_Log” will be provided.
○
Step 6: After completion or abort of a software update process an automatically
compiled log file of the update process will be saved in the folder:
“
My Documents\Austro Engine\AE300-Wizard\Flash
” with the name:
“
FlashLog_EECU-Serial-number_YYYYMMDD_hhmmss.ae3
”.
○
Step 7: If the update was successful the fault code memories of both ECUs will be
cleared, the ECUs disconnected from the AE300-Wizard and restarted for further
use.
-
A successful completion of the update process will be indicated by a
green
message.
-
Unsuccessful completion or abort of the process will be indicated by a
red
message.
Only if
both
ECUs have been updated successfully, the engine is serviceable!
This is important, because if one ECU has been updated while the other one still contains the
older software revision or no working software at all (e.g. because of a power failure or dis-
connected cable during the programming session), the engine in question will still start up
and run on one ECU, but because of the loss of redundancy it does not conform to the type
certificate anymore and has to be considered unserviceable.
