Better analysis, wider detection, increased reliability
GSS is used for on-ground analysis of recorded maintenance data, to detect incipient defects in major aircraft, helicopter and UAS components, and to increase reliability of equipment by minimising airframe vibration.
The GSS includes configuration and maintenance software in the electronics unit (eVPU, DAPU, DMAU, AGILE) and rotor and trim balance software. This function is included on HUMS capabilities for helicopters.
For HUMS applications, the GSS main functions are:
Replay flight data
Record routine maintenance
Enter component change: engine, transmission or rotor adjustments
Print download log
Test functions: accelerometers
Configuration.
For propeller balancing applications, the GSS main functions are:
Update propeller balancing computation unit
Display current balancing weight configuration
Calculate new balancing configuration
Track balancing history and trends
