Avionics bending: ACARS Control unit

Hello guys, here is a shot and a video of ACARS control display unit mounted in P8 panel.

It works on 115V 400Hz supply and at this stage only power up can be done till I will receive the V1 ARINC device to try to test some 429 labels with it.

First pics as Always includes the wiring diagram for it:



And here is a picture of Diagnostic section.

 
As you can see, the unit has actually no inputs grounded which are the program pins and no data from the 2 data channels as no ARINC labels are sent to it. More will follow once V1 device will be here :)
 
Here is a video of power up test

  1. Hi,
    Does ACARS get inputs from other avionics under ARINC 429 protocol? What about ARINC 619 then?

  2. Hi. For sure it gets some data via the 429 protocol, but I am searching for unit's manual to get more infos of protocols and information this unit uses so to have V1 avionics to do the best possible to drive it.
