ARINC429 to NMEA 0183 translator (RS232/RS422)

Navtech’s ARINC-NMEA Translator outputs industry standard NMEA 0183 messages in real-time, from encoded data on an ARINC 429 data-bus. This enables interfacing of proprietary ancillary systems to the aircraft data bus for navigation or other peripheral operations.

The NMEA 0183 messages are transmitted as RS232 or RS422 serial data in standard ASCII format. The Translator is adaptable for high or low speed ARINC 429 Data (12.5kHz/100kHz). Opto-isolated inputs ensure minimal ground loop interference and ARINC data-bus protection.

• Diagnostic LED’s indicate status of the ARINC/NMEA decoding
• User configurable by direct connection to serial port of PC
• Ideal diagnostic tool for ARINC data bus investigations

Powered from an external supply (10 to 36 Volts) the Translator is current, thermal and reverse polarity protected.
