Gulfstream Aerospace has developed software enhancement called “Circuit Flash” for electronic manuals that makes it easier for aircraft technicians to interpret detailed wiring diagrams.

Aircraft technicians access electronic wiring-diagram manuals using laptops that typically have 14-inch screens. Tracking long wire paths on a screen of that size can be difficult because the diagram image must be moved around on the screen to track the line that represents the wire path. With Circuit Flash, the wire path, which is depicted in black, is overlaid with red when a technician moves the cursor onto the wire and clicks. As a result, the desired wire path, which appears as a red line, stands out in a field of black lines.
