CREW INTERFACES
Cathode Ray Tube (CRT)
Cathode Ray Tubes are the corner stones of
displays in Modern Aircrafts.
Reasons for using CRTs as display devices in
aircraft are:
1).Versatile Display Device: It overshadows the
functional limitations of traditional
Electromechanical Indicators.
2). Excellent Reliability
Cathode Ray Tube (CRT)
Cathode Ray Tube (CRT)
• Ruggedness
• High Brightness
• It’s achieved through an optimum match of the
CRT phosphor and an optical band pass filter
covering the CRT face
Temp. range(ºC) -20 to +70 -20 to +70 -30 to +100 -15 to +40
• Ex: Comm1 refers radio ,so logic dictate that the words which
follow are numbers representing the frequency to which the
radio should be tuned
Voice Synthesis System
• The most familiar application is the “Pull up, Pull up” message by
ground proximity warning system
• During high –workload, message should be brief and in a
telegraphic format.
• Message should be restricted to condition that require immediate
corrective action or have an immediate impact on the safety of fight
or will soon reach it’s condition if not corrected by the pilot.
• These warning should be preceded by a warning tone and have a
concurrent visual display.
• It include logic in the central processor to resolve conflicts between
simultaneously received messages.
• This resolution can be achieved by first in ,first out (FIFO) protocol.
