1 OVERVIEW
The information in this manual is subject to change without notification.
1.1 SCOPE
This manual describes the interface to the 943200-11 ETM Recorder. It also provides information to guide
the proper installation of the Engine Trend Monitor (ETM) Recorder. Installation instructions should be read
and followed.
1.2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The ETM Recorder is a digital data recorder that records a serial input and provides a USB interface for
downloading the data. The ETM Recorder is pin compatible and has the same mounting pattern as the ETM
Key Recorder part number 943200. A USB port is available for users to insert a USB Flash drive and retrieve
information stored on the ETM Recorder. The LED is externally visible to indicate unit health status and USB
insertion/data recording status.
The ETM Recorder block diagram is shown in Figure 1 with an aircraft installation example with an ETM
product.

SHADIN AVIONICS
USB Port
The ETM Recorder utilizes an industry standard USB port interface to extract a copy of the Report files off the
ETM Recorder. The Report files contained on the ETM Recorder can be extracted by connecting a USB
Flash drive to the ETM Recorder USB port. The ETM Recorder downloads all of the ETM Report files
recorded since the last download every time a USB Flash drive is installed prior to powerup. Once download
is complete, files are archived in the internal ETM Recorder memory. Archived files may only be accessed in
Shadin’s Repair Station. Files will be named with a unique time stamp.
The USB Flash drive used to extract the data from the ETM Recorder must be formatted to FAT32.
LED User Interface:
A tricolor LED is used to generate three basic colors: Red, Green and Orange. The LED shows the USB port
and ETM Recorder status.
LED codes for USB port operation (USB Flash Drive Installed)
•Red flash USB Flash drive busy (Write/Read)
•Green/Red alternate Insufficient memory available on USB Flash drive
•Green steady USB Flash drive Write/Read complete, USB Flash drive may be removed
LED codes for ETM Recorder operation (USB Flash Drive Uninstalled)
•Orange flash At power up until first ETM message is received
•Green steady Normal operation
•Orange steady Internal memory 80% full
•Red steady Internal failure
Data Port Protocol
The ETM Recorder receives ETM message data on the Data Port. The ETM “Output Select” can be
configured for “Key” or “Printer” modes; the ETM Recorder requires the ETM to be in “Printer” mode.
The ETM Recorder receives and records all of the ETM Report messages.

6 OPERATIONAL MODES AND PROCEDURES
The ETM Recorder will enter one of two operational modes at power up, Record mode or USB Data
Download mode. The ETM Recorder will remain in the same mode until power is cycled. The ETM Recorder
software determines the mode by trying to access the external USB Flash drive when power is first applied.
The procedures for the two modes are listed below:
6.1 RECORD MODE
Operator instructions
1. Verify USB Flash drive is not installed prior to power up
2. Apply power
oLED –flashes Orange until first ETM message is received then transitions to solid Green for
the duration of the flight.
Note: If the operator does not remove the USB Flash drive prior to power up, the
ETM Recorder will remain in USB Data Download mode and will not record ETM data.
6.2 USB DATA DOWNLOAD MODE
Operator instructions
1. Install USB Flash drive prior to power up
2. Apply power
3. Wait for the LED to stop flashing Red
4. The data copy is complete when the LED is solid Green
5. Remove the USB Flash drive
Note: Do not leave the USB Flash drive in the ETM Recorder.
6.3 GROUND BASE SOFTWARE
To import the ETM Recorder data into FleetView:
1. Insert the USB Flash drive into a Window PC
2. Execute FV_import

7 TROUBLESHOOTING
This section provides some methods for troubles shooting the ETM Recorder.
IF NO FILES ARE ON THE USB FLASH DRIVE
A. Verify the USB Flash drive was not left in the ETM Recorder during a flight.
1. If the USB Flash drive is present at power up the ETM Recorder goes into USB Data
Download mode and will not record the ETM data.
2. DO NOT LEAVE THE USB FLASH DRIVE IN THE ETM RECORDER DURING FLIGHT.
B. Verify the USB Flash drive is inserted prior to applying power.
1. Only at power up will the ETM Recorder recognize the USB Flash drive.
2. Power cycle the ETM Recorder
C. Verify the USB Flash drive is formatted to FAT32.
1. This can be done by connecting the USB Flash drive to a Windows PC, click on the start
menu and click on Computer.
2. Click on the USB Flash drive to highlight, right click and click on Properties.
3. Look for the File system type, it should be formatted to FAT32.
4. If the File System type is not FAT32, click Cancel, right click on the USB Flash drive and click
Format…
5. Select File System type FAT32 and click Start.
6. A warning will pop up to confirm that you want to reformat the USB Flash drive, this will erase
all the existing data on the USB Flash drive so only click OK if existing files on the USB Flash
drive are not needed.
7. Once complete click OK and the USB Flash drive is ready to use.
