If damage does occur to the microQAR unit, please contact Product Support for assis- tance. Situating the Micro QAR: For best operating results, L3AR recommends that the QAR installation be located in a pressurized part of the aircraft. Removing the CompactFlash Memory Card from the microQAR: To prevent damage from occurring to the CompactFlash memory card please insure that power is not applied to the Micro QAR unit. If damage does occur to the CompactFlash memory card, please contact Product Support for assistance. Using the CompactFlash Memory Card in a PC for Downloading: When first inserting the Compact Flash Memory Card into a PC memory card reader, the PC’s oper- ating system may ask to format the Memory Card. DO NOT format the memory card as loss of stored data will occur. If inserting a new blank Compact Flash Memory Card into a PC memory card reader, the QAR Flight Data Processor Utility Software will not recognize the card. It will warn you that “There is no uQAR Memory Card in the Card Reader.” You must then insert the removable Compact Flash Memory Card into a QAR200 and use the ERASE function of the QAR utility to format this card to be used with the uQAR Blank Compact Flash Cards are pre---formatted to a Microsoft Disk Operation System (DOS Format).This format is not compatible with the uQAR. Memory Modification for Removable Memory Configurations: Please be aware that any modification of the sold as design of the microQAR will invalidate any warranty or support agreement for the changed unit. Also be aware that these modifications can possibly invalidate necessary paperwork regarding the Supplemental Type Certification of the unit on an aircraft. Modification of the microQAR’s memory is considered to have occurred if the memory card sold with the unit is replaced with a memory card of a higher capacity, even if it is produced by the same manufacturing company as the original card. In addition, replacing the supplied memory card with a card of the same capacity but manufactured by a company different than the supplied memory card will also be considered a modification. L-3AR provides a basic part number for removable flash card models of QAR200. If you anticipate the need for increasing the QAR memory capacity, this part number should be certified on the air- craft.

EQUIPMENT DESIGNATOR INDEX The Equipment Designator Index is an index of designators assigned to electrical parts as shown in electrical wiring and schematic diagrams. Part numbers are arranged in an alphanumerical sequence beginning at the extreme left– hand position and continue from left to right. When the manufacturer’s part number is used for any parts. subassemblies. the part number is not repeated. the Aviation Recorders num- ber is also shown enclosed in parentheses in the NOMENCLATURE column. Items that are riveted. or replaced. commencing with Figure 1 and progressing in sequence. Items listed but not illus- trated are identified by a dash to the left of the index number. NUMERICAL INDEX The Numerical Index is a complete listing of parts included in the Detail Parts List. The order to prece- dence in beginning the part number arrangement is as follows: A. When there is more than one type of subassembly for the same function additional figures are included with the same number. Numerals 0 through 8. B. cross– referenced to the applicable figure and item number. The FIGURE number and ITEM number columns contain the figure and item number(s) for all parts listed. Index num- bers begin with number 1 for each illustration and in broken sequence to facilitate the in- sertion of new items which are not variants of existing items. one position at a time. 01/09 . Part number entry is limited to a single line and does not exceed fifteen characters.

Fig- ure numbers are shown for the first entry of each figure and at the top of each subse- quent column. and parts that can be disassembled. repaired and reassembled. Illustra- tions are each assigned a figure number. 05 Page 52 Apr. The FIGURE AND INDEX NUMBER column reflects the assigned figure number of the illustration in which the item is shown and the item number listed on the illustration. Parts made of bulk stock such as wire. the manufactur- er’s part numbers and total quantity required.

The first vendor will be assigned an item number and each subsequent part num- ber is assigned the same item number with an alpha variant. Parts which are not common to all configurations but are associated with one or more of the coded lead items carry the letter or letters assigned to the lead item with which it is associated. Items used to attach parts or assemblies to each other are designated “ATTACHING PARTS” and are listed immediately following the item or items they attach. – FOR NHA)”. 05 165E2810---00 Apr. for example.

Nomenclature wording is arranged so that the identifying noun or key word is always the first part of the descrip- tion. a part listed under indenture “3” is a com- ponent of the assembly listed under indenture “2” immediately above it. The NOMENCLATURE column describes the part or assembly. the equipment total can be found in the Numerical In- dex. The UNITS PER ASSY column lists the quantity of the item required in one assembly in which it is a component. These units or assemblies are the lead times on each figure. These units or assemblies are assigned reference letters such as A. It is. The EFFECTIVITY CODE column establishes parts’ relationship with units or assemblies which are essentially the same but have variations. Standard abbreviations are used as necessary.
