The N16 navigation receiver is identical in size to the V16 COM radio and can be used in a simple configuration as combined NAV/COM solution for both MGL EFIS systems using the MGL protocols or, if at least one Vega or Razor control head is used these heads can provide NAV/COM data output on RS-232 that is compatible with most EFIS systems on the market.
For stand-alone operation you require at least one Razor control head or two Vega heads. Using these heads a fully compliant solution is presented that provides both VOR CDI using a rotary control for OBS bearing entry as well as the familiar two bar ILS localizer and glideslope indication. The VOR provides a display for bearing to station and radial from station at the same time for up to two simultaneously-received VOR stations. Note: The N16 does not provide the traditional +/-150mV signals to drive “steam gauges” – it is intended as stand-alone solution or to be integrated into an EFIS system. Very latest in high performance signal processing provides a new generation of navigation receiver based on RF direct conversion technology. |
