Continue making the appropriate selections until ELB displays a list of faults for
the section of the airplane being viewed. Locate the fault, and then select OK. If
necessary, use the scroll bar to find the fault.
Fill out the Fault Report form described in the section “Entering Fault
Information”.
Locating a Fault Using Text Search
The other method for locating a fault in the database is by entering text search
criteria. All items that match the search criteria are displayed to enable selection
of the appropriate fault.
To use a text search start from the Logbook Home page, select NEW LOGBOOK
ENTRY, and then FAULT REPORT. On the Fault Locator page select VIEW
FAULTS, a list of faults is displayed. Select NEW SEARCH to display the Fault
Locator Search page and type or select the appropriate values in the search fields:
• LOCATION - where the fault was observed on the airplane
• FAULT SYSTEM OR ATA CHAPTER
• ENTER WORD TO SEARCH - enter text to search for. Use the virtual
keypad to enter search text. If a partial word is entered the system retrieves
all records that begin with the text string
When the entries are complete select SEARCH. The system retrieves and displays
fault records that match the search criteria. The search criteria appear at the top of
the page. Select the appropriate fault and then select OK.
Note: Selecting RESET CRITERIA redisplays the Fault Locator Search Criteria
page with the LOCATION and FAULT SYSTEM OR ATA CHAPTER
fields set to ALL, and the ENTER WORD TO SEARCH field is left blank.
Fill out the Fault Report form described in the section “Entering Fault
Information.”
Entering Fault Information
When fault information is entered it can either be saved as a draft fault item; the
system does not create an official logbook entry, or sign as a fault report; the
system creates an official logbook entry and sends the fault report information to
the ground database for the maintenance crew to initiate action.
