Curtiss-Wright to Showcase Flight Test and Monitoring Solutions at the ETTC 2024 - European Test and Telemetry Conference

ETTC 2024 EUROPEAN TEST AND TELEMETRY CONFERENCE (Booth #2-423)  – NUREMBERG, GERMANY – June 11, 2024 – Curtiss-Wright's Defense Solutions Division will showcase a selection of its latest total system and standalone solutions for flight test instrumentation (FTI) and monitoring applications, and present a series of technical papers, at the ETTC 2024 - European Test and Telemetry Conference, NürnbergMesse, Nuremberg, Germany, June 11-13, 2024.

Live Demonstrations of New Advanced FTI Solutions

During the conference, Curtiss-Wright will present, in its booth (Booth #2-423), live demonstrations of its latest Axon data acquisition technologies, featuring the newly introduced Axon Pico and AXN/PCM/401 Axon PCM module. The Axon Pico is the FTI industry’s first standalone analog data acquisition unit (DAU) to feature Power over Ethernet (PoE) able to capture key analog data in remote locations on the test flight platform. The module can be daisy-chained and is easily and quickly integrated with Curtiss-Wright’s existing comprehensive FTI product range to add further system flexibility. The new AXN/PCM/401 is the first PCM merger module able to support all PCM line codes, at data rates up to 40 Mbps, and deliver them into two channels simultaneously. The module can packetize PCM data into all industry-standard formats and enables test flight engineers to select individual parameters from legacy PCM streams for use in modern networked systems.

Curtiss-Wright will also present a live demonstration of its time space positioning (TSPI) unit, the highly accurate MiTSPI nTTU-2600. This compact unit delivers user-defined TSPI information to support real-time telemetering via Ethernet and/or Chapter 4 PCM (Clock and Data).

Curtiss-Wright will also feature its new NXDP airborne IADS flight test display and analysis systems, which combine a rugged mission computer with the full desktop version of its popular IADS RTStation software. These solutions provide pilots and test engineers real-time access to critical data while onboard the test aircraft.
