Abstract
A display and user interface incorporated into an on-board engine vibration monitoring and trim balance system. The interface consists of an alphanumeric display and a number of push buttons integrally formed with a front panel of the system. The user operates the interface to obtain and alter information pertaining to engine vibration data, engine trim balance solutions, and balance part configurations. Push buttons are used to scroll through an elaborate menu structure for receiving information and making selections among various available functions. The menu structure may in particular provide for the user to review particular installed balance part location data prior to asking the system to compute an optimum balance solution. Once the balance solution is calculated, the user may review a list of balance parts to be removed from and installed on the engine.
