1. An aircraft system, comprising:
- an aircraft subsystem generating monitor trips related to the health of the aircraft subsystem; and
an area health manager coupled to the aircraft subsystem, the area health manager comprising;
a data receiver for receiving the monitor trips from the aircraft subsystem;
a fault detector for processing inputs based on the monitor trips to identify faults, the fault detector configured to store logic operations; and
an execution sequence queue coupled to the fault detector for storing a plurality of execution entities, each of the plurality of execution entities being associated with a specific logic operation in the fault detector that is executed when the associated execution entity is in a first predetermined state based at least in part on the monitor trips.

Abstract
An aircraft system includes an aircraft subsystem generating monitor trips related to the health of the aircraft subsystem; and an area health manager coupled to the aircraft subsystem. The area health manager includes a data receiver for receiving the monitor trips from the aircraft subsystem; a fault detector for processing inputs based on the monitor trips to identify faults; and an execution sequence queue coupled to the fault detector for storing a plurality of execution entities. Each of the plurality of execution entities is associated with a specific logic operation in the fault detector that is executed when the associated execution entity is in a first predetermined state.
