VIAVI bench-level avionic test sets provide OEMS of Traffic Collision Avoidance Systems (TCAS) and transponder systems with the tools to develop, certify, test, and return to service these critical aviation safety devices.
The VIAVI IFF-45TS test set generates RF signals and parametric measurements of MKXIIA and TACAN equipment. Emulating a TACAN ground transponder or a TACAN airborne interrogator, the IFF45-TS provides six TACAN test modes as well as Transponder and Interrogator Test modes. The integral Mode 5 emulator removes the need for cryptographic applique and keys, and extended options support DoD AIMS 04-900A, DO-260B, AIMS 03-1000B, Amendment 1, and DO-181E certification testing.
The RGS-2000NG TCAS Test Set is an RF signal generator/ receiver for testing Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance Systems (TCAS) and transponder LRUs. It is used by all major TCAS OEMs for engineering development, design verification, certification, manufacturing, and return-to-service testing of TCAS computers, ADS-B In receivers (including ground stations), ADS-R and TIS-B ground station transmitters, and Mode S/ADS-B Out transponders (with the transponder option, RGSNGOPT10).
