Embodiment Construction

[0032] figure 1 An exemplary embodiment of a data loading system 10 with a database system 11 having a connection to at least one storage location 13 for a portable data loading device 14 is shown. The portable data loading device 14 is connected to the storage location 13 and thus to the database system 11 via the data loading connection 15 by means of a cabled data connection 16 .

[0033] Software configuration 12 is formed by putting together individual or combined software packages 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 . . . by planning station 17 , planned and organized for data transfer to aircraft 30 . In this case, the planning station 17 is the place responsible for the maintenance and / or operational safety of the aircraft 30 and may be manned, for example, by a maintenance engineer. At the planning station 17 all maintenance procedures for the aircraft 30 can also be planned. Collating of the software configuration 12 can also be carried out here, which is especially important from a...

Abstract

The invention relates to a data loading system and a corresponding method (10) for loading a software configuration (12) to an electronic assembly (38, 39, 40, 41, ...) of an aircraft (30), said data loading system comprising a database A system (11) and at least one data loading device (14). A software configuration (12) for at least one fleet of aircraft (30) is stored on the database system (11), and the data loading means (14) is configured to interface the data already obtained from the database system ( 11) The acquired assigned software configuration (12) is loaded onto the data bus (33) of the aircraft (30) corresponding to the software configuration (12). said data loading means (14) is configured to load the latest individual software configurations (12) of all aircraft (30) of the fleet from the database system (11) and store these on said data loading means (14), This loading process takes place at a ground-based storage location (13) via a data connection (16).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a data loading system for loading software configurations to electronic components of an aircraft, said data loading system comprising a database system and at least one transportable data loading device for storage of software configurations of at least one fleet of aircraft on the database system. The data loading means are configured to load the assigned software configuration obtained from the database system via the connection to the data bus of the aircraft corresponding to the software configuration. The invention also relates to a corresponding data loading device and a data loading method. Background technique [0002] In modern aircraft, multiple electronic components are installed which implement programs or operating systems stored in these electronic components to allow them to perform their respective functions. The electronic components may be, for example, flight control systems, radio and radar systems. Furt...
