Innovative Solutions & Support (IS&S) announced the “Vantage” display system, a new addition to its product line designed for business aircraft. The system is available in two or three 10.4-inch flat-panel display architectures.
The Vantage solution allows operators to upgrade their aircraft to a new flat-panel display system while leaving existing third-party avionics installed in the aircraft, minimizing the cost of the upgrade, IS&S said. The system includes Radio/Navigation Converter Units, which convert analog signals into dual digital ARINC 429 outputs, as well as Engine Data Concentrator Units, which output information to the display units for graphical presentation. Control is provided through a bezel mounted button and knob control system, designed to be the pilot and co-pilot’s main interface to the system.
Options include Class 3 e-charts provided by Jeppesen, enhanced vision, XM Satellite Weather and on-board cabin video.
“The aviation industry is constantly looking for ways to increase the safety and functionality of its cockpits, and we believe we’ve introduced a critical piece to this puzzle with the IS&S Vantage,” said IS&S President Roman Ptakowski.
