6.8.1.1 Uncorrected Pressure Altitude Sources
The IFD5XX can accept uncorrected altitude from multiple sources in the following formats:
ARINC 429, RS232, or a Gray Code altitude encoder. If multiple altitude sources are
connected, the IFD5XX will use the altitude sources in this order (highest first):
1.
ARINC 429 ADC
2.
ARINC 429 EFIS
3.
ARINC 429 Traffic Advisory System
4.
RS232 FADC
5.
RS-232 Altitude Encoder
6.
Parallel Altitude Encoder (Gray Code)
6.8.1.2 Baro-corrected Altitude Sources
The IFD5XX can accept baro-corrected altitude from multiple sources. The IFD5XX can accept
Altitude information from altitude Air Data Systems in the following formats: ARINC 429 or
RS232. If multiple altitude sources are connected to the IFD5XX, the IFD5XX will use the
altitude sources in this order (highest first):
1.
ARINC 429 INS/IRU
2.
ARINC 429 EFIS
3.
ARINC from Transponder
4.
RS232 FADC
