Method and system to enable selective smoke detection sensitivity

A system to enable selective smoke detection sensitivity onboard an aircraft, the system comprising:

• one or more sensitivity selectable smoke detector assemblies installed onboard the aircraft, each sensitivity selectable smoke detector assembly comprising:
• a sensitivity selectable smoke detector device;
• one or more sensors electrically or wirelessly coupled to the sensitivity selectable smoke detector device;
• a controller coupled to the sensitivity selectable smoke detector device;
• a system logic coupled to the sensitivity selectable smoke detector device or to the controller, the system logic configured to autonomously vary in real time two or more alarm setpoint sensitivity levels, based on sensitivity level determination factors comprising one or more of an aircraft system status and an aircraft configuration status;
• one or more system inputs measured by the one or more sensors and input into each sensitivity selectable smoke detector device, or input into the controller, for processing by the system logic;
• and
• a system output generated when the alarm setpoint sensitivity level is triggered.
