AIM-USA is a leading manufacturer of Avionics Test & Simulation Products for MIL-STD-1553, STANAG3910/ EFEX, ARINC429, AFDX/ ARINC664P7, PANAVIA Serial Link, Fibre Channel & MIL-STD-1760 applications.

AIM GmbH is proud to introduce a new line of Ethernet based MIL-STD-1553 test and simulation products, the ANET1553 series. Following the successful introduction of its line of USB-based products, AIM has developed this latest generation product to provide unprecedented performance and flexibility in avionics bus testing wherever an Ethernet based system is employed.

The ANET1553-x boxes are based on AIM’s latest Common Core Architecture and can be operated over Standard Ethernet, incorporating all functions and features of AIM’s industry leading portfolio of MIL-STD-1553 Interfaces. They also provide a LINUX operating system on board which means that the ANET1553-x can also perform tasks like executing embedded PBA.proTM or running custom applications. The addition of a general purpose USB port allows additional capabilities such as data recording to removable media and wireless networking. The hardware and software architecture is well suited for Web based applications which would allow use with any browser capable host.

The ANET1553-x is packed with features to enhance your experience when analysing, simulating, monitoring and testing MIL-STD-1553A/B databuses. Full function versions concurrently act as Bus Controller, Multiple Remote Terminals (31), Chronological Bus Monitor/ Mailbox Bus Monitor on one or two dual redundant streams per box. Single function or Simulator only versions are also available. Powerful features include full MIL-STD-1553A/B Protocol Error Injection/ Detection (AS4112/ 4111 compliant), multi level Triggering and Filtering, Real Time Recording (100% bus loads – all dual redundant channels concurrently) and Physical Bus Replay. The physical bus interface provides programmable bus coupling modes and variable output amplitude to the MIL-STD-1553A/B bus.

The ANET1553-x also supports IRIG-B time code and integrates eight software controllable (Avionic Level) General Purpose Discrete I/O (GPIO) signals. Dedicated Trigger I/O strobes are available as well.

The Application Programming Interface (API) is bundled into the module price and compatible with WindowsXP/Vista/7 and Linux. Host applications can be written in C and C++. A LabVIEW VI application interface is included as well. The configuration of the ANET1553-x is supported via a built-in Web based configuration application, accessible via any Standard Web Browser.

Compatibility to the optional AIM’s PBA.pro Application Software offers an Ethernet based turnkey solution for a wide range of applications.

The new AIM ANET1553-x Ethernet based interfaces open up new directions and methods for avionics data bus testing and simulation by combining the latest technologies in hardware, software and networking.

AIM has offices in the UK and the USA with the main design and manufacturing facilities based in Freiburg, Germany.
