Date/Time
The WQAR has a system clock (UTC) and is set at the factory using the front
panel System Menus. The clock’s power source is a super-capacitor inside
the WQAR which lasts approximately 30 days. The clock will lose its time if it
doesn’t have access to aircraft power for that length of time. The WQAR
does not use the Captain’s clock to refresh the clock. However, if configured,
the WQAR will update the clock whenever it connects to the Wireless
Groundlink Communication Manager. This time update takes up to
approximately five minutes and the FAIL light will blink during this time and
the unit will reboot. After reboot, the WQAR will be operational with the
proper time.
System Menus
The WQAR menus are accessed using the Front Panel Buttons and are viewed
in the Front Panel Display. After bootup, the unit defaults to the SYSTEM
STATE menu which displays the system status as shown in Figures 4 and 5. If
the WQAR buttons experience no activity for 30 minutes for top-level menus
and 10 minutes for sub-menus, the WQAR automatically returns to this
menu.
Entering and Exiting Menus
To exit any menu, including the SYSTEM STATE menu, press the MODE
button. To enter any menu, including the SYSTEM STATE menu, press the SEL
button. After viewing any menu, it is always good practice to return to the
SYSTEM STATE menu.
