Avionica introduced the first RS232 serial-port based ARINC-429 adapter to industry in 1992. It represented nothing less than a revolution in ARINC 429 testing and troubleshooting.
Since then, we’ve worked diligently to create the ultimate, PC-based ARINC 429 interface and analysis software. Interface technologies have evolved, and Avionica has responded with a simple, rugged interface for our latest analysis software that’s equally at home on the line as in the lab: USB429, Avionica’s ARINC 429 databus analyzer provides groundbreaking performance over a USB 2.0 interface at an affordable price.
Leverage your Investment
The USB429 interface enables users to leverage existing USB 2.0 - equipped notebook computers or interface to our RSU II touch-screen Ruggedized Service Unit for the ultimate in convenience. But that’s just the beginning; by adding software modules, you can accomplish a variety of other ARINC 429 based analysis tasks, including ARINC 615 Data Loading, TCAS testing, and MCDU Simulation. The USB429 interface has a second, 9-Pin port to retain compatibility with our legacy test interfaces.
Made for the Real World
Our intuitive Windows XP™ - based databus analysis software, USB429win, is a flexible, comprehensive, ARINC 429 Bus Analyzer, featuring:
• Two transmitter channels
• Four receiver channels
• 12.5 Kbps or 100 Kbps individually channel-configurable
• Four output discrete channels
• Three input discrete channels
• Display of up to 64 received and 64 transmitted labels simultaneously
• Specific label display or bus scanning
• Binary, hex, or programmable engineering unit display
• Integral engineering unit conversion library
• Delayed transmission
• Single - shot transmission
• Record time-stamped data to disk
• Playback time-stamped data from disk
With this feature set, there’s not much testing you can’t tackle - on the line or in the lab. Includes software and USB ARINC 429 adapter.
