A. Aircraft Maintenance Configuration
(1) Energize the aircraft electrical circuits
(Ref. AMM TASK 24-41-00-861-002).
(2) Make sure that the aircraft is in ground configuration (landing gear compressed and all engines stopped).
(3) Make sure that all SOFTWARE DISK(S) are in non-writeprotected status (writeprotection OFF).

NOTE: Depending on the software version there could be more than one software disk.

4. Procedure
Subtask 31-33-00-710-102-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL

A. FDIMU DFDRS Software Load Procedure with PDL

NOTE: If the PDL has the digital signature check, the PDL can trigger two messages:

When the software has no signature (refer to the PDL user-guide), this message has no effect on the A/C software upload and you can ignore it
When the signature is incorrect or corrupted (refer to the PDL user-guide), the software upload is not possible and it is necessary to use other software.

As a data security precaution, Airbus recommends that the user does a report of the fault to his Aircraft Security Focal Point.
