ARINC 429 TO NMEA0183 RS232 RS422 DATA TRANSLATOR PROTOCOL CONVERTER

ARINC429 to NMEA0183 Data Translator Protocol Converter

ARINC429 to NMEA0183 Data Translator Protocol Converter extracts navigational data from an
ARINC 429 data bus and translate it onto an RS232 or RS422 serial data bus. 

The exact format for the converted data is 
NMEA0183 - a marine GPS ASCII format. 
The typical labels processed by this
converter are shown in the table below. 

The converter adapts automatically to
high or low speed (12.5/100kHz) ARINC 429
data and the inputs are opto-coupled for
electrical isolation purposes.
The unit is powered from an external
28 VDC (18-36V) nominal supply with
internal current and thermal fuse. 

The inputs are also reverse polarity protected.

  • Each line begins with a '$' and ends with a CrLf (0DH, 0AH) characters.
  • The ',' comma delimiters are used to identify each particular field.
    i.e. Third field is Latitude, fourth field is 'N' or 'S' indicator.
  • Each line is transmitted at 4800-Baud Rate and at a repetition of one line per second.
