on ABSTRACT
A monitoring system, having a processor, provides pressure
‘wamings associated ‘with a tie of an areraft When the
sircrall i stationary, the processor operates in a maintenance
‘mode and receives first pressure measurement indicaing a
pressure ofthe tre; compare the fist pressure measurement
‘with maintenance mode low pressure threshold, and causes
the flight deck display to display a low pressure waraing
associated if the fst pressure measurement is below the
‘maintonance mode low pressure threshold. When the aircraft
js in motion, the processor operates in a light mode and
receives a second pressure measurement indicating a pres-
sre ofthe tie, compares the second pressure measurement
‘with an abnormal pressure threshold which is lower than the
‘maintenance mode low pressce threshold, and causes the
Right deck display to display an abnormal pressure warning
if he second pressure measurement is below the abnormal
pressure thresholdPatent Application Publication Mar. 30, 2017 Sheet 1 of 2. US 2017/0087943 AI
