NIVOMAX Viewers offer a feature that enables users to customize the visibility of technical data by applying filters based on Product Sequence Numbers (PSN) and Service Bulletin (SB) statuses. This functionality ensures users access only the most relevant information, tailored to specific hardware configurations and maintenance updates for various aircraft..

Functionality

This feature is used in scenarios where aircraft configurations differ due to varying components or updates denoted by service bulletins. Users can input a single PSN or a range of PSNs, combined with an SB status marked as ‘PRE’ (before) or ‘POST’ (after), to refine the dataset according to operational needs and aircraft status.

Step-by-Step Guide

Accessing the Applicability Filter and Setting the PSN
