  • Patent number: 8537035
    Abstract: This aircraft control cabin comprises an avionics display device with multiple fixed screens (10a-10d) and at least one screen (15, 16) as an accessory, designed to be a replacement screen or extra screen for the avionics display system. The screen (15, 16) is a touch screen housed in a retractable tablet which slides underneath an instrument panel in the control cabin, the touch screen (15, 16) being designed to occupy a stowed position underneath the instrument panel, a first position of use in the retractable tablet in which the touch screen (15, 16) acts as a means of interaction for controlling various items in the control cabin and a second position of use in which the touch screen (15, 16) is put in a position in which it replaces or supplements a screen (10a-10d) belonging to the avionics display system. Use in an aircraft.

  • Patent number: 7639154
    Abstract: In order to adjust the luminance of indicator lights of a piece of monitoring and control equipment for an airplane, the control for regulating luminous intensity of legends and displays is used to act on the luminance value of the indicator lights. When the indicator lights are illuminated in a “day” mode, the luminance of the indicator lights is independent from the regulation of the luminous intensity of legends and displays. When the indicator lights are illuminated in a “night” mode corresponding to a reduced luminance of the indicator lights relative to the “day” mode, the luminance of the indicator lights can take at least two values according to the luminous intensity regulation value of the legends and displays.
