Embodiment Construction

[0023] Such as figure 1 The arrangement and number of viewing units on the instrument panel shown do not in any way detract from the spirit and scope of the present invention. However, the invention is particularly beneficial for networks comprising a large number of viewing units, where the task of adjusting display parameters is actually more tedious for the operator when the instrument panel comprises many viewing units. The cockpit presented below comprises six viewing units 1 to 6 and a central control button 100 . Each viewing unit also includes individual adjustment controls 11 , 21 , 31 , 41 , 51 and 61 for the brightness parameters of the respective screens.

[0024] Figure 2a and Figure 2b Individual control means for the brightness parameters of the observation unit 1 representing the cockpit.

[0025] Figure 2a The control rule for the control button of the brightness parameter 111 when the operator performs the increase control is shown. Figure 2b The co...

Abstract

The invention pertains to the field of display management of display devices (1 to 6) in an aircraft cockpit (10), and particularly relates to a method for synchronising the display parameters of display devices, and to a related control system. The invention relates to a method for synchronising at least one display parameter, preferably the brightness parameter, using a series of simple controls of a centralised means for controlling the levels of said display parameter. The invention also relates to a control system including individual control means for the display parameters and a centralised control means (100). The invention can be used for dashboards in aircraft comprising a plurality of displays.

Description

technical field [0001] The field of the invention relates to the management of display devices in aircraft cockpits. The invention applies in particular to observation systems that monitor display parameters of a network of cells. The invention also relates to a method for synchronizing display parameters of a plurality of aircraft cockpit viewing devices. Background technique [0002] Today's aircraft instrument panels are designed to integrate several flat screen devices for interfacing with avionics systems. Observation units serve the crew and monitor aircraft systems, inter alia, in navigation, pilotage and communication tasks. Typically, the latest commercial models of aircraft include four to eight flat screen devices. [0003] The display device comprises means for manual and individual adjustment of display parameters, in particular the brightness of the screen, and the display balance, especially between the ground background or meteorological data and the symbo...
