Abstract
An ejection seat includes an ejection seat sequencing system. The sequencing system enables time delays to various components of the system, such the drogue parachute, the main parachute, and harness release cartridge. A sequence controller receives data for a parameter, such as airspeed, from at least two sensors. The sequence controller selects a sequence timing delay mode to implement the time delays for the components of the sequencing system. The sequence controller also accesses a lookup table in a database accessible by the sequence controller. The sequence controller uses a delay parameter of the lookup table to modify a time delay within the sequence timing delay mode, as configured by a user.
