    The FAST ETM system collects engine data on PT6A-140 powered Grand Caravan EX aircraft. It logs trend and exceedance events, enables live data viewing and capture, and performs turbine creep calculations. The system includes a FAST processor that collects data via ARINC 429 and stores it in non-volatile memory. Event logs can be transmitted via the onboard GSM cellular modem or downloaded using the MonitorTM software. The MonitorTM interface allows users to view system status, download logs, and configure trigger events and data collection parameters.
