The intent of this document isto provide general and specific design gui

19、dance for thedevelopment of a PMAT primarily for airline use. Thisdocument describes the aircraft interface, operationalcapabilities, and the standards necessary to achieveinteroperability with ARINC 624 Onboard MaintenanceSystems (OMS) and ARINC 649 Electronic LibrarySystems (ELS).This characterist

20、ic defines the interface protocol, and thebasic and optional PMAT functions. The PMAT should bedesigned to operate in an ATN-compliant environment.1.2 DescriptionThe PMAT is a portable control and display devicesuitable for the airplane maintenance environment thatallows remote access to OMS and ELS

21、. The PMATinterfaces with on-board systems through ports locatedthroughout the airplane. Additional capabilities areselectable options that will be determined by economicsand practicality.1.3 InterchangeabilityOne of the primary functions of an ARINC Characteristicis to specify, in addition to perfo

22、rmance parameters, theinterchangeability desired by the airline users.Interchangeability is the ability for equipment designed bydifferent manufacturers to be used for various aircraft .While every effort is made to completely define all theinterface requirements, a few unanticipated problems mayari

23、se in the equipment development and integrationprograms. Manufacturers are encouraged to bring thesediscrepancies to the attention of the AMC/AEEC staff sothat every effort can be made to achieveinterchangeability.Airline users desire that evolutionary improvements andinclusions of additional functi

24、ons do not violate thestandards set forth in this document. Provisions to ensureforward looking generation interchangeability are includedin this document to guide the manufacturer in futuredevelopments.1.4 Regulatory ApprovalThe PMAT should meet all applicable Federal AviationAdministration (FAA),

25、European Joint Aviation Authority(JAA), Federal Communications Commission (FCC), andany other customer airlines regulatory authority uniquerequirements. This document does not and cannot setforth the specific requirements that equipment must meetto assure approval. Such information should be obtaine

26、dfrom the regulatory agencies themselves.1.5 Definition of Terms Used in This DocumentDefinition of terms and abbreviations used in thisdocument are provided in Attachment 1.1.6 Related DocumentsThe latest revision of the following documents arepertinent to the design and development of a PMAT which

32、DS2.1 IntroductionThis section sets forth the form factor, interwiring, inputand output interfaces and power characteristics desired forthe PMAT. Attachment 2 outlines systems using eitherLRU or LRM components with a PMAT. These standardsshould permit the parallel but independent design ofcompatible

33、 equipment.2.2 Form Factor, Connector, and Pin IndexingThe PMAT is a portable user interface device intended tobe hand carried to work sites around the aircraft. As suchthe physical characteristics are not as critical as forcomponents installed on-board the aircraft. Physical sizeand weight restrict

34、ions on the PMAT will be determinedby the airline and PMAT manufacturer.COMMENTARYThe PMAT should be designed to provide anadequate input/output capability and still be asphysically small and light weight as possible in orderto allow access to all work areas. A PMAT that iseither difficult to use, o

35、r difficult to bring into theavailable work space, will not be used.The PMAT interface to the airplane should be a connectorwith pin indexing as defined in Attachment 3.COMMENTARYThe airlines desire a standard interface between thePMAT and the on-board systems in order toeliminate the need for physi

36、cally different interfacesfor different aircraft. The connector and pinoutshould be the same for all manufacturers aircraft bothfor new models and for retrofit on older models.The PMAT should meet all mechanical, electrical, andenvironmental requirements defined for all potential workareas in and ar

37、ound the aircraft.COMMENTARYThe work areas appropriate for the PMAT will differon different models of aircraft. However, it can beexpected that the work environment will includevapor areas, high temperatures, moisture, lowtemperatures, and a variety of different fluids andchemicals used around aircr

38、aft. Since the PMAT isprimarily for line support it will be exposed to allsorts of weather and will be required to be usable inbright sunlight as well as at night. It should also beexpected that the PMAT will be accidently droppedby the user.2.3 Standard InterwiringThe PMAT communications with the o

39、n-board systemsshould be compliant with ARINC Project Paper 646.ARINC Project Paper 646 is based on an IEEE 802.3Ethernet LAN. The physical connection should be basedon a shielded 10BaseT physical connection standard.2.4 Electrical PowerThe PMAT should be capable of being powered by eithera self-con

40、tained rechargeable battery or 115 VAC 400 Hzaircraft power through the aircraft connector. In addition,the PMAT should be capable of accepting commercialpower of 50-60 Hz, 100-250 VAC. A separate powercable may be used for commercial power.COMMENTARYThe PMAT power supply should be designed tosuppor

41、t the airlines maintenance environment in allsituations. A PMAT with both a battery and anelectronic power supply can be used in the hangar,shop, on the flight line, with powered or unpoweredaircraft, and to support retrofit older model planes.COMMENTARYSince some aircraft may not have 115 VAC avail

42、ableat the connectors, consideration should be given tomaking the internal PMAT battery easily replaced, inorder that one or more spare batteries can becharging outside of the PMAT. During periods ofhigh activity a discharged battery could be swappedfor a fully charged one, allowing continued use of

43、 thePMAT.PMAT power consumption should not exceed 50 watts.2.5 Common GroundThe wire connected to the PMAT connector pin labeled“Chassis Ground“ is not intended as a common return forheavy AC currents.2.6 Test and MaintenanceThe PMAT should contain self-test capability whichmonitors and displays its

44、 own health. The PMAT shouldnot be considered an ARINC Report 624 OMS membersystem.ARINC REPORT 644 - Page 33.0 BASIC CAPABILITIES3.1 General DescriptionThis section describes the functional aspects of theequipment which are considered to be included in thebasic PMAT. The objective of the PMAT is to

45、 providethe line mechanic with a portable remote user interfacedevice to support maintenance activities in locations notconvenient to the on-board Maintenance Access Terminal(MAT).Ports should be provided for the PMATs to facilitatemaintenance at multiple locations throughout the aircraft.COMMENTARY

46、The portability of the PMAT allows the maintenancetechnician to “take the OMS on-site.“ For example,if maintenance action is required on the aircraftbrakes, the PMAT could be connected to the OMSport located in an adjacent wheel well. From thislocation, a test could be conducted to isolate the fault

47、,appropriate maintenance action could be taken, andfinally, the test could be conducted again to verifythe maintenance action.Ports may be provided at service interphone panelswhose locations are already in place. Commercialcomputers with a suitable OMS/ELS interface shouldbe considered for use as P

48、MATs.The PMAT should not adversely affect on-board aircraftsystems.3.2 Basic FunctionsThe basic capability of the PMAT provides the equivalentfunctionality of the MAT at remote sites around theaircraft. This functionality may be provided by thePMAT operating as an X-server terminal communicatingvia

49、the network interface to the on-board X-client and asa workstation hosting applications that communicate viathe network interface for data from the aircraft massstorage and with other on-board systems.When operating as an X-terminal, the functionality of thePMAT is controlled by the X-client. When operating asa workstation, the application software that is loaded onthe PMAT will determine its functional capability. Thisapplication software may be resident in the PMAT or bedownloaded to the PMAT across the ARINC 646 LANfrom the ELS.3.2.1 Basic Maintenance FunctionsThe basic maintenance f
