1. A cabin management computer system for remotely testing a number of electronic module assemblies that control the deployment of one or more personal restraint devices, comprising:
- a programmed processor configured to execute program instructions that cause the programmed processor to;
transmit a code that causes an electronic module assembly that controls the deployment of one or more personal restraint systems to remain in an awake mode and receive one or more codes that identify the electronic module assembly;
transmit one or more codes that identify the electronic module assembly and cause the identified electronic module assembly to perform a diagnostic self-test;
receive diagnostic self-test information from the identified electronic module assembly associated with the one or more codes indicating if the one or more personal restraint systems controlled by the identified electronics module assembly can deploy; and
transmit an instruction to the identified electronic module assembly to return to a sleep mode.

Abstract
A system for testing a number of electronic module assemblies (EMAs) that control one or more personal restraint systems. A programmed processor with a computer system transmits signals that instruct the EMAs to perform a diagnostic self-test. The results of the self-test are received by the computer system and stored in a computer readable memory. In one embodiment, the computer system is a cabin management computer system for use on an aircraft.

4. A non-transitory computer readable media with instructions stored thereon that are executable by a programmed processor in a cabin management computer system to:
-
transmit a code that causes an electronic module assembly that controls the deployment of one or more personal restraint systems to remain in an awake mode and receive one or more codes that identify the electronic module assembly; transmit one or more codes that identify the electronic module assembly and cause the identified electronic module assembly to perform a diagnostic self-test; receive diagnostic self-test information from the identified electronics module assembly associated with the one or more codes indicating if the one or more personal restraint systems controlled by the identified electronics module assembly can deploy; and transmit an instruction to the identified electronic module assembly to return to a sleep mode.

5. A cabin management computer system for remotely testing a number of electronic module assemblies that control the deployment of one or more personal restraint devices, comprising:
a programmed processor configured to execute program instructions that cause the programmed processor to; transmit a code that causes an electronic module assembly that controls the deployment of one or more personal restraint systems to remain in an awake mode and receive one or more codes that identify the electronic module assembly; transmit one or more codes that identify the electronic module assembly and cause the identified electronic module assembly to perform a diagnostic self-test; receive diagnostic self-test information from the identified electronic module assembly associated with the one or more codes indicating if a battery in the electronic module assembly has sufficient power to deploy one or more of the personal restraint systems controlled by the identified electronics module assembly; and transmit an instruction to the identified electronic module assembly to return to a sleep mode.
