The board supports up to 6 modules, and each module represents an independent test and simulation device. Most modules are based on existing Excalibur products such as the 1553 Px family and the ARINC429 RxTx.
Additional modules are being added constantly. The EXC-8000 family represents a breakthrough in flexibility for avionics test equipment permitting the simulation of an entire test suite from a single board. It is, for example, possible to control 20 ARINC-429 channels, a 1553 channel and discrete I/O from a single EXC-8000cPCI board. Most modules are dual port RAM processor based and offer a simple and powerful interface to the card.
The EXC-8000cPCI is supplied with C drivers, including source code.
Please see multi protocol 8000 modules for additional information on protocols that can be added to this card.
