BA-110 ARINC 429 to CSDB Unit (ACU)

The BA-110 ACU is designed to convert ARINC 429 High or Low Speed data into two (2) CSDB (Collins Standard Data Bus) data output busses and one (1) RS-232 Data Bus

The unit is designed to be configurable to convert ARINC 429 data and output to any two of the following CSDB Busses with high or low bus speeds, configurable Bytes/Block and Frames/Sec:

Air Data Bus 1A, 1B (Air Data)

ADF Bus (Nav ADF)

AHC Bus 1A, 1B, 1C (AHRS)

ATC CTL Bus (ATC System)

ATC XPDR Bus (ATC System)

CDU Bus 1A, 1B (Nav Long Range)

DME Bus 1A, 1B (Nav DME)

DPU Bus 1A, 1B (EFIS System)

FCC Bus 1 or 2 (Flight Control)

FGC Bus (Flight Control)

MCS Bus (Heading)

MPU (EFIS)

NAV Bus 1A, 1B (Navigation VHF)

NAV CTL Bus 1A, 1B (Navigation VHF)

VHF COM Bus (Communications VHF)

VHF COM CTL 1A,1B (Communications VHF)

VNI Bus (Navigation Vertical)

These Adaptable configurations allow the unit to interface new Avionics systems such as FMS GPS, Navigators, Transponders, Radios, and Display Systems to existing CSDB Navigation, Display, Autopilot, Surveillance, Communications systems, and Select Honeywell Primus Systems.

This adaptable unit can also output RS-232 in 9600 or 19200 Baud Rate, with Even, Odd, or None Parity. The BA-110 ACU can interface ARINC 429 systems to RS-232 systems such as displays and Navigation.
