| Apr 13, 2017 at 23:39 | comment | added | Gerry | @selectstriker2 I don't disagree with your position on the tag. There's only 8 questions with the ARINC-429 tag and no other ARINC type tags. While there are over 100 ARINC standards, I doubt there would be enough questions against them to justify a tag. The Avionics tag works well for these type questions. If there was interest, it might be more appropriate to have a general Industry Standards tag. | |
| Apr 13, 2017 at 17:45 | comment | added | selectstriker2 | @Gerry Quite true, I didn't realize that the standards portion had been split. Historically though, ARINC was the company publishing the various ARINC standards. My main point was a response to Snoopy's initial comment that I don't feel that a general ARINC tag without the standard number(s) wouldn't be appropriate. | |
| Apr 13, 2017 at 16:31 | comment | added | Gerry | @selectstriker2 While Rockwell-Collins did buy ARINC, it did so to obtain their data link services company. Since R-C is an avionics company, owning the standards committees would be a conflict of interest. As a result, R-C sold the ARINC Industry Activities portion of the company to SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers). So ARINC-IA, the producers of ARINC Standards and Characteristics, is not the same as ARINC. | |
| Apr 13, 2017 at 13:29 | comment | added | Snoop | @selectstriker2 Well it is applicable because I'm the one who decided to ask about ARINC in general... why would you assume that I'd know to ask about some specific ARINC protocol? | |
| Apr 13, 2017 at 13:21 | comment | added | selectstriker2 | One thing to note, ARINC is a standards and services company owned by Rockwell Collins. So a generic ARINC tag wouldn't really be applicable for what you are asking. I do know that we don't follow any sort of defined standard for our discrete I/O's but they do go through DO-160 testing. | |
| Apr 13, 2017 at 13:07 | comment | added | Snoop | Also, thanks for pointing out that I'm talking about the physical discretes. That is exactly what I meant. It's good you were able to pick that out but I may still need to update my question to clarify a bit further. | |
| Apr 13, 2017 at 13:06 | comment | added | Snoop | Yeah... So what I wanted to do for this question was ask about ARINC in general, i.e. 429/600/717. However, because my reputation is too low I had to pick the 429 tag because it is the closest thing. Really I would like to be able to use a generic ARINC tag for this. | |
