NEW PRODUCTS |
Using our experience in designing ruggedized
airborne data acquisition systems, ACRA CONTROL
has developed a range of stand-alone IP
recorders that capture Ethernet packets from
onboard networks. These recorders are built
using open industry standard setup protocols,
storage media and file formats. They are compact
and reliable with a simplified setup a
streamlined configuration and an operating range
of -40 to 85°C

The GTS/BSC/004 is a dual channel bit sync that
provides superior functionality to deliver a bit
error rate within 1dB of theory by utilizing
matched filtering and inter symbol interference
compensation. The 100% digital design reduces
the effects of temperature and noise that are
normally inherent to analog systems and produces
the same performance at all rates and for all
codes

The KAD/ARR/101 AFDX redundancy remover filters
dual redundant AFDX Ethernet network traffic and
detects system failures and performance
problems. It captures frames on two AFDX links
and performs error checking, such as Ethernet
frame check sequence and the IP header checksum,
on the received frames

ACRA CONTROL in ACTION |
The
ACRA CONTROL SSR-500 multi-role recorder was
recently selected by one of the world's largest
aircraft manufacturers to provide an integrated
data acquisition and recording solution for both
new and production aircraft. The SSR-500 met the
requirements to easily slot into the test
aircraft for an FTI application. The recorder
plugged directly
into the existing FTI network, using the same
connectors

ACRA CONTROL
has been working together with industry
partners, customers and academics to create a
new XML standard for the setup of data
acquisition systems, which has resulted in
XidML, the first true XML standard for the iNET
generation. XidML is the only published metadata
standard for the FTI community. It is a 100%
vendor neutral XML method for storing metadata

APPLICATION FOCUS |
Flight Data Acquisition Units (FDAUs) are used
to condition data for Flight Data Recorders (FDRs)
that traditionally only record a limited number
of mandatory flight parameters. There is a trend
towards using the flight recorder system as an
active component in aircraft maintenance,
expanding their role to include Flight
Operations Quality Assurance (FOQA) and other
programs.
