Using an ARINC 818 fibre optic interface, PAD receives video from, and exchange messages with the ADCP II.
IEE CEO Tom Whinfrey said: “This flight-qualified avionics display with the new ARINC 818 circuit card assembly adds a high-performance digital video feature to the stable of IEE products.
“Not just for ADCP II compatibility,” he adds, “but for any other avionics mission computer.”
The ADCP II facilitates the centralisation of a number of critical display functions, such as the consolidation of multi-window configurations into one complete screen image for distribution to display units, IEE said in a statement.
