Viewing the consumption and range parameters of the aircraft

Unified Glossary

Basics of using a typical web page

Using Online Help

This page allows you to view the consumption and range parameters that have been defined for the aircraft. Tell me more.

The “View Consumption & Range Parameters” page appears.

The system displays the following fields:

Date & Time Format

The format in which the date and time fields appears in this page. This format is displayed from the "User Preferences" business component based on the login user ID. In case the format is not defined, the system displays the date and time format from the “Enterprise Modeling” business component by default.

The system displays the following fields in the “Aircraft Details” group box:

Aircraft Reg #

The registration number of the aircraft for which you wish to view the consumption and range parameter details.

Manufacturer Serial #

The MSN or the manufacturer’s serial number given to the aircraft by the manufacturer at the time of production.

The system displays the following fields in the “Parameter Details” multiline:

Parameter

The parameter associated to the aircraft.

UOM

The unit of measurement of the parameter.

Parameter Type

The type of the parameter, which can be “Consumption” or “Range”.

Life Parameter

The system displays “Yes” if the consumption parameter has been identified as the life parameter. Life Parameter is a consumption parameter that indicates the life of the equipment.

Parameter Source

The source from which the parameter value is updated. The source can be one of the following:

 
  • Flight Log - indicates that the parameter value is updated from the flight log.

 
  • Manual - indicates that the parameter value is updated manually.

 
  • Calculated - indicates that the parameter value is updated based on the formula associated to the parameter. This formula depicts the mathematical relationship of the parameter with the participating parameters. When one or all the participating parameters are updated, the formula based parameter will be automatically updated.

Present Value

The value of the parameter as updated from the parameter source.

As Of Date

The date on which the present value of the parameter was updated.

As Of Time

The time at which the present value of the parameter was updated.

Range: From

The minimum number in the range of values for a range parameter.

Range:To

The maximum number in the range of values for a range parameter.

Average Daily Utilization

The average daily utilization of the consumption parameter.

Forecast Factor

The factor based on which the maintenance activity is forecasted for the consumption parameter.

Ultimate Life Value

The value identifying the life of the aircraft, if the consumption parameter has been identified as a life parameter.

Remaining Life

The remaining life of the aircraft

Formula #

The formula specified for the consumption parameter, based on which the parameter value is calculated.

Formula Content

The content of the formula.

Parameter Description

The textual description of the parameter.

Warranty Tracking

Indicates whether the warranty tracking for the parameter is “Applicable” or “Not Applicable”.

Parameter Update

Indicates whether parameter updation is “Mandatory” or “Non-Mandatory” each time when the parameter is updated for the aircraft.

Update Mode

The mode on which the parameter value has to be updated which could be one of the following:

  • Delta –indicates that the new parameter value is added with the existing parameter value.

  • New –indicates that the parameter value is overwritten by the new parameter value

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Viewing the consumption and range parameters of the aircraft – An overview

View Aircraft Record - A summary of the activity

Details such as the parameter, its description, unit of measurement, parameter type, source from which the parameter is updated, present value of the parameter and the date and time at which the present value of the parameter was recorded, are displayed. In the case of range parameters, the system displays the starting and the ending value of the range of values obtained by the range parameter. If the parameter is a consumption parameter, the system indicates whether the parameter has been chosen as the life parameter. It also displays the average daily utilization or the forecast factor or the formula id that has been defined for the consumption parameter. If a formula has been defined, the formula content is also displayed.
