535B-1
535B-1 Lightweight Headset and Boom Microphone
This document describes the aircraft industry recommendations for a headset with integral boom micro...phone suitable for pilot use in all types of aircraft using conventional radio installations. This document, ARINC Characteristic 535B, is in addition to and does not supersede the older ARINC Characteristic 535A: Lightweight Headset and Boom Microphone, dated March 3, 1972.
538C
538C Handheld Microphone and Boomset Microphone
This document describes the aircraft industry recommendations for a handheld microphone and boom mic...rophone for use with airborne radio installations. This document, ARINC Characteristic 538C, is in addition to and does not supersede the older ARINC Characteristic 538B: Hand-Held Microphone, dated February 16, 1983.
542A
542A Digital Flight Data Recorder
This standard includes specific requirements necessary to support flight data recording and other fl...ight data acquisition needs. Design details necessary to ensure interchangeability of equipment in a standard aircraft installation is included.
561-11
561-11 Air Transport Inertial Navigation System (INS)
This standard defines the requirements of an INS, which provides sensor and steering command outputs.... The INS includes inertial sensing and provides outputs for aircraft attitude, present position, and steering signals suitable for operating the pilotýs instruments. The basic INS provides complete self-contained horizontal navigation capability intended to serve as the sole means of navigation on a worldwide basis.
562
562 Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS) - Analog
Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS)ý Analog addresses the need for standard TAWS installati...ons in older aircraft that have analog equipment interfaces. The analog unit is intended as a replacement for ARINC Characteristic 594: Ground Proximity Warning System (GPWS) equipment. The document is intended to compliment ARINC Characteristic 762: Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS) for later model aircraft having digital equipment interfaces.
566A-9
566A-9 Mark 3 VHF Communications Transceiver
This standard defines the characteristics of a VHF Communications Transceiver unit capable of provid...ing voice or data communications capability with the ground. Supplement 8 introduces 8.33 kHz channel spacing.
573-7
573-7 Aircraft Integrated Data System Mark 2 (AIDS Mark 2)
This standard provides design guidance for the development and installation of an expandable Flight ...Data Acquisition and Recording System. The functions defined include flight data acquisition through suitable electrical interfaces, conversion of analog input signals into a standard serial data output and the capability for expansion to permit increased data handling capacity.
577-1
577-1 Audible Warning System
This standard provides basic requirements for audible warning generators, whose function is to provi...de 25 different channels with sound and/or voice warnings, activated by discrete input signals and generated as a function of an unsafe condition of important systems of the aircraft. The outputs are available for audible display to the cockpit crew.
578-4
578-4 Airborne ILS Receiver
This standard provides basic requirements for a new-generation ILS receiver, whose function is the r...eception of ILS localizer and glide slope signals and the recovery there from of course-line deviation information for visual display to the pilot, and for use by an automatic flight control system during automatically controlled approaches and landings.
579-2
579-2 Airborne VOR Receiver
This standard sets the basic requirements for a VOR receiver, whose function is to receive and proce...ss VOR signals in the frequency band 108.00 to 117.95 MHz. Provides traditional analog outputs and a digital output of omni bearing.
585-2
585-2 Electronic Chronometer System
This standard defines an Electronic Chronometer that provides time-of-day (GMT) indication to the fl...ight crew, as well as providing this data in digital form for use by other avionic systems. In addition, the ECS provides an Elapsed Time Indicator (hours and minutes) with a start/stop/reset function and a chronograph function.
591
591 Quick Access Recorder for AIDS System (QAR)
This standard provides design guidance for development and installation of a QAR, whose basic functi...ons are to store digital data supplied at the output of an ARINC 573 FDAU or other similar acquisition unit and provide an easy access to this stored data for systematic ground processing for performance monitoring, maintenance monitoring or other purposes.
594-4
594-4 Ground Proximity Warning System
This standard sets forth the characteristics of a Ground Proximity Warning System (GPWS) designed fo...r installation in commercial aircraft. The GPWS provides audible and visible warnings or alerts when an aircraft approaches terrain or deviates below the ILS glide slope beyond the limits set into the system.
595
595 Barometric Altitude Rate Computer (BARC)
This standard provides general guidance for the design and installation of a BARC for use with a GPW...S. The BARC generates an electrical rate signal from pneumatic pressure supplied by the aircraft static pressure system. The BARC unit is intended primarily for use with ground proximity warning equipment in aircraft that do not have a suitable electrical signal for altitude rate.
