The LV-222-511-511 PXI MIL-STD-1553 Interface Module, part number 784798-01, is engineered by Astronics Ballard Technology in collaboration with National Instruments to provide robust PXIe to MIL-STD-1553 connectivity. This interface module features four independent channels across two MIL-STD-1553 single-function modules, offering flexibility for diverse applications. Built on the OmniBus II carrier platform with dual cores and dedicated CPUs, it allows for the attachment of either two distinct or identical MIL-STD-1553 modules. Each channel can be programmed separately, with capabilities for associating messages with PXI triggers or discrete triggers.
The LV-222-511-511 incorporates advanced integrated testing circuitry that functions similarly to a watchdog, ensuring reliable performance in any PXIe-enabled chassis. It is suited for various testing and data logging requirements, particularly when accessing established avionics databus protocols is essential for control or monitoring systems. The module installation requires three slots within a compatible PXIe chassis and draws power directly from the host chassis without the need for an external power supply. Furthermore, the module is accompanied by a comprehensive Configuration Manager, a graphical software tool designed to streamline the setup process for users. The LV-222-511-511 also boasts a standard 3U size and a weight of 3.5 lbs., and it comes with a 2-3 year warranty. For further documentation and user support, manuals are available for download.
