Astronics Ballard Technology/National Instruments LV-222-442-000 PXI ARINC 429 Interface Module

The LV-222-442-000 (Part Number: 784803-01) is a 16-Channel PXI ARINC 429 Interface Module. This module comes from the family of OmniBus products and is designed to provide you access to avionics databuses. This module is used in a variety of operations, simulation, and test-related applications. The LV-222-442-000 comes with onboard hardware resources to provide you with a seamless controlling of ARINC 429 avionics databuses. It is important to understand that the ARINC 429 is a widely used standard that defines the transmission of data between various systems used in commercial avionics. A label identification method and broadcast bus topology are used by this protocol. However, an avionics databus operating on an aviation-specific communication standard cannot be accessed through a regular computer directly. Thus, there comes the role of the LV-222-442-000. Through this module, you can access any ARINC 429 avionics databus through your personal computer.

The 16 channels incorporated in this module are receiving/transmitting channels with configurable frequency support. Thus, you can operate your module at non-standard speeds. To set a configurable frequency for each receive and transmit channel, you can use the software provided with the device. The LV-222-442-000 comes equipped with sophisticated, built-in test circuitries. During the module’s operation, different internal modules are constantly monitored for errors. Moreover, the module is also sampled for its operating temperature at various points. These entire features make this module an ideal solution for critical applications generally encountered in the avionics industry. The LV-222-442-000 is offered with a powerful software suite.
