Abstract
Aircraft instrumentation systems and controllers are provided. An aircraft instrumentation system includes a display and a controller. The controller is configured to monitor an electronic circuit breaker (ECB) status of each of a plurality of aircraft systems. The controller is further configured to generate, for each of the plurality of aircraft systems, a visual indicator that indicates the ECB status. The controller is yet further configured to generate an image arrangement that includes the visual indicator for each of the plurality of aircraft systems and to generate a signal that causes a display to present the image arrangement.
Claims11
An aircraft instrumentation system for an aircraft, the aircraft instrumentation system comprising:
- a display;
- and
- a controller communicatively coupled with the display, the controller configured to:
- monitor a current phase of flight in which the aircraft is currently operating;
- generate a checklist associated with a next consecutive phase of flight that follows the current phase of flight;
- and
- generate a signal that causes the display to present the checklist associated with the next consecutive phase of flight in response to one of transitioning to, reaching a predetermined time until, and reaching a predetermined distance from the next consecutive phase of flight.
