Excalibur Systems, Inc.
Established in 1986, Excalibur Systems started with an idea, with a desire to create and achieve. We designed the first ARINC-429 interface card for the personal computer and we have not looked back since. Today, Excalibur manufactures hundreds of products for the Avionics Industry. From connectors, cables, couplers and cards to sophisticated complete systems, our commitment to customer service is legendary. Excalibur has received numerous awards, accolades and commendations for our products and more importantly for our service and support. Excalibur builds and maintains long-standing relationships with our customers, which we refer to as our "partners".

Interface Module for the Multimode, Multiprotocol Excalibur 400 Family of Carrier Boards
M4K1553Px(S)
Interface Module
The M4K1553Px(S) interface module for the multimode, multiprotocol, Excalibur 4000 family of carrier boards provide a complete solution for developing and testing 1553 interfaces and performing system simulation of the MIL-STD-1553 bus. The module handles all standard variations of the MIL-STD-1553 protocol.Each M4K1553Px multi function module contains 64K bytes of dual-port RAM for Data blocks, Control registers, and Look-up Tables. All Data blocks and Control registers are memory mapped, and may be accessed in real time. Each of the independent dual redundant M4K1553Px modules may be programmed to operate in one of three modes of operation: Remote Terminal, Bus Controller/Concurrent-RT, and Bus Monitor. In addition, modules 1 and 3 can be programmed to operate as Concurrent monitors, to modules 0 and 2 respectively.Each M4K1553PxS single function (RT validated) module operates either as a Bus Controller, Remote Terminal, or Bus Monitor.

Multichannel ARINC 429 Interface Device
DAS-429UNET/RTx
-
Our DAS-429UNET/RTx is an intelligent, multichannel ARINC 429 interface device that can be connected to any Windows device with a USB or Ethernet connector. It monitors and records all or selected 429 traffic for later analysis or reconstruction in the lab. Exalt is our Windows base graphical tool that allows you to analyze real time or recorded data using many different views: raw data, engineering units or graphical displays.Data can be then extracted from the recorded file, and re-transmitted over the bus to another system in order to see in detail what happened during the recorded test.The combination of a handheld computer, 429Unet card and Exalt provides a complete solution for testing and maintaining ARINC-429 networks.
