Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp Announces the Introduction of New Bench Test Set for Transponders and DME.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers CARLSTADT, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 29, 2004 Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp (TIC), a leading designer and manufacturer of avionics avionics (ā'vēŏn`ĭks), electronic instruments used in air or space flight; also the design and production of such instruments. Early planes had few instruments, but as aviation and aircraft became more complex, so did instrumentation. test and measurement solutions for the Aerospace and Defense Industry, is proud to announce its new family of TB-2X Series ATC/DME Test Sets. The new bench test set is available in two models, the TB-2100 with test capability for transponders (Modes A, C, and S) and distance measuring equipment Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) is a transponder-based radio navigation technology that measures distance by timing the propagation delay of VHF or UHF radio signals. (DME (Distributed Management Environment) A network monitoring and control protocol defined by the Open Software Foundation (now The Open Group). DME was not widely used. DME - Distributed Management Environment ) and the TB-2000 with capability for transponders (Modes A and C) and DME. The TB-2X series was specifically designed to replace 1970's vintage bench test sets that are utilized for testing of ATCRBS ATCRBS Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon System transponders and DME plus the TB-2100 adds capability for testing Mode S transponders. The TB-2100 and T-2000 features: -- Color LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) A display technology that uses rod-shaped molecules (liquid crystals) that flow like liquid and bend light. Unenergized, the crystals direct light through two polarizing filters, allowing a natural background color to show. display with touch-screen selection of test parameters -- Two separate RF channels for testing of Mode S diversity -- User storage of test parameters -- Complete test capability for ATCRBS, Mode S, and DME Charles Palanzo, the Company's Chief Operating Officer Chief Operating Officer (COO) The officer of a firm responsible for day-to-day management, usually the president or an executive vice-president. said, "Tel-Instrument is committed to providing the Aerospace and Defense Industry innovative test and measurement solutions.
