NOTES ON THIS DOCUMENT

This document is intended to be a guide to the normal operation of the ARTS 7000 Test System.

This manual will explain the technical specifications, features and functions of the ARTS 7000.

It has been written as a user reference for the test set operator. It does not detail any specific test

procedure or process for any aircraft or aircraft system. Every aircraft and aircraft system will

require a specific test procedure. It is highly recommended that this manual is used in

conjunction with the relevant aircraft or system maintenance manual that is to be tested using the

ARTS 7000 Test System.

Please Note:

Throughout the manual there are warnings that are identified in Red as shown in an example

below:

WARNING

It is extremely dangerous to generate signals during testing that are on the frequencies that are in use by local ATC. When operating

the Test Set in a Navigation Mode (VOR, ILS, Mkr). Please be aware of the local navigation aid and ATC frequencies. It is the test

set operator’s responsibility to make sure all testing is carried out on Frequencies that will not interfere with local navigation aids or

ATC resources.

This document also identifies some Hints and Tips to enhance and improve the operators testing

experience and success. These Hints and Tips are identified throughout the document in Green

text. For an example see below:

Hints and Tips

When testing any Transponder, DME or TCAS, make sure the reflective paths are minimized from equipment that is in close

proximity to the aircraft. Try to select a line of site between the test Set antenna and the Aircraft antenna that does not have any

obstruction in front or behind the antenna being tested. For example: Ground Power Units, Aircraft Landing Gear, Aircraft Stairs,

Toolboxes etc.

SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION

SUBSECTION 1: DESCRIPTION

The ARTS 7000 is highly portable, multi-function Avionics Radio Test System. The modular

nature of the design allows expansion of capabilities as required. The system includes a series of

built-in radio frequency generators and receivers to support common aircraft ramp test Radio

Communications, ATC and Navigation requirements. The test set can be used as an “over the air”

(antenna to antenna connection) or as a direct connection (direct cable connection). Using a

commercial off the shelf tablet as a handheld controller allows simple and intuitive operation to

the user.

SUBSECTION 2: ARTS 7000 OUTLINE OVERVIEW

The design consists of:

•Fully integrated test solution.

•All test equipment housed within a single shock resistant portable, wheeled transit case.

•Accessories housed within a lightweight pouch that can be attached to the main case.

•Commercial off the shelf tablet control of the test set

•Wi-Fi Control from tablet controller to ARTS 7000 test set using a unique ARTS 7000

self-generated Wi-Fi Network.

•Tablet operator interface has been specifically designed to be very simple and intuitive to

learn and use, yet powerful and customizable to allow extensive detailed testing.

•Smart Power supply that covers all commonly available power sources:

oCommercial and domestic A/C power supplies

oAircraft Power

oBattery power

•Modular design with technology specific modules and future expansion slots.

oSlot 1 - Module 1 Nav/Com Module (optional).

oSlot 2 - Module 2 Pulse Module (optional).

oSlot 3 –Expansion slot for future capability development.

oSlot 4 –Expansion Slot for Future capability development.

•Antenna for Nav/Com Operations.

•Antenna on tripod mount for Pulse operations.

•Various cables.
