Avionica introduces the industry’s first USB 2.0 ARINC 615 Data Loader. Avionica’s LOAD615win Data Loader software provides groundbreaking performance over a USB 2.0 Interface at an affordable price. Unlike monolithic portable data loaders or PCMCIA interface devices, LOAD615win software uses Avionica's USB-based USB429win ARINC-429 interface to communicate with target LRUs. It is compatible with both ARINC 615-3 and ARINC 615-4 compliant devices.

LOAD615win can be hosted on nearly any Windows XP™ platform with an available USB 2.0 port, and provides nearly twice the dataload speed of the aircraft mounted floppy disk drive. The software provides a comprehensive dataload library management environment.

"Modern aircraft have become data - centric environments", said Avionca's Stylian Cocalides, "Fast, accurate, and convenient ARINC 615 data loading is a necessiity for every avionics maintenance organization. Now these organizations can get leading-edge technology and exceptional value from a recognized leader in avionics maintenance and analysis tools".

The implications of the new design are substantial. Avionica built the product on this universal platform to enable its installation on various devices, including Electronic Flight Bags and Maintenance Access Terminals, which are increasingly being maintained using wireless solutions. LOAD615win is available bundled in Avionica's own RSU II OnBoard, a Maintenance Access Terminal based on the RSU II, with integrated avionics interface busses (e.g. ARINC 429, RS 422, Ethernet) in the mounting base.

Avionica, Inc. specializes in complete flight data management solutions. Products include secureLINK, the airborne wireless Ethernet router, satLINK, the Iridium™ satellite communications gateway, the miniQAR, the world’s first miniature quick access flight data recorder, the RSU II, a handheld flight-data monitoring, DFDR download, and databus analysis tool, and AVSCAN.flight, a commercial and military flight data analysis tool.
