airbus clock
Hi guys,
I know there are some interconnections between clock and wing tip brakes on Airbus, but I'm not able anymore to find them on manuals.
Do you have any idea?
Thanks in advance

One of my previous Airbus gurus told me about one of the aircrafts internal clock battery was not working, so each time they would wake up the the airplane the WTB's would be engaged, apparently since the airplane didn't know when the last inspection had been complied with, just a story I heard.

This is written in my company SOPs (cockpit prep)
CLOCK
– Check time, and adjust if necessary; elapsed time at zero, chrono at zero.
Note: If the clock is readjusted for a value above ten days, maintenance must perform the Wing Tip Brake engagement test

I recently collected an A340 from a paint input, approx 12 days, the batteries were disconnected prior to the input and reconnected at the end and the clock was reset to the correct time/date. Prior to dispatching I noticed the ECAM message WTB engaged carry out test (or something along those lines) had to do SFCC WTB engagement test on flap & slats to clear the message, so it's still there on the 340
