Selecting a Document from the Document Library
The Document Library page displays all of the documents that are available for
viewing which may include both single documents and groups of documents. For
example, the Document Library might include a Maintenance Documents group;
when that group is selected, the titles of the documents defined for that group are
displayed in a sub-library page.
To select a document from the Document Library; select DOCUMENTS from the
EFB Main Menu page. If the EDB application was previously accessed, the
system displays the last page being viewed before exiting the application. In this
case, select the SHOW MENU soft key and then DOCUMENT LIBRARY.
Use the PGUP and PGDN bezel keys to page through the document list and locate
the document to view. Documents are listed individually or grouped into
categories. Grouped documents display in the top-level page only and are
identified by use of an ellipsis (...) in the title.
Select the name of the document to view. If the selected document is divided into
chapters, the Table of Contents page displays with the document title or
abbreviation at the top of the page. If the selected document does not have a Table
of Contents, the document’s content displays in the View Content page.
Expand (+) or collapse (-) the Table of Contents as needed to locate the chapter to
view. Select COLLAPSE TOC to collapse all the entries in the Table of Contents.
Select a chapter to display its contents in the View Content page.
Selecting a Document from the History List
Because the EDB application tracks the order in which the documents and
chapters were viewed, the History menu option allows the easy return to a
previously viewed document or chapter.
To view the content of a document or chapter from the History list:
• select SHOW MENU, HISTORY, and then PREVIOUS HISTORY ITEM
to view the content of the previous document or chapter in the history list
• select SHOW MENU, HISTORY, and then NEXT HISTORY ITEM to
view the content of the next document or chapter in the history list
Note: Initializing a flight clears the History list.
Using Bookmarks
Using the Bookmarks menu function marks content within a chapter for easy
retrieval. All bookmarks are stored in a list that displays on the View Bookmarks
page. The bookmarks function is only available in documents with a table of
contents, and only one bookmark in each chapter is permitted.
