Avionics Interface Computer

Three modes of operation provide complete bridging capability for lab environments.

  • Remote Access Mode uses Ethernet as a virtual backplane between applications running on a host computer and 1553/429 interfaces located within the AIC, eliminating the need and cost of long cabling to onboard 1553/429 connections from the test lab.
  • Protocol Conversion Mode uses bridging SDK, which allows users to easily create embedded software on the AIC that will autonomously forward data between MIL-STD-1553, ARINC 429, and Ethernet interfaces.
  • Standalone Mode allows the AIC to operate as a user programmable computer system.
