Avionics
IFR 6000 Ramp Test Set
• One main user screen for each test mode
• Detachable antenna
• Large display
• Simple user interface
• Lightweight and compact <8 lbs. (3.6 kg)
• Battery 6 hours plus duration
• Fully FAR part 43 appendix F compliant
• European Elementary and Enhanced
Surveillance
The IFR 6000 features an extremely easy to use
interface where every parameter the user commonly needs to view is displayed on screen.
Controls
Dedicated Mode keys for XPDR, DME and TCAS
allow quick selection of the operational mode.
The application dependant softkeys and data
select/slew keys provide an intuitive man machine
interface.
DME mode is provided with dedicated keys for
frequency/channel selection and RF level control.
For frequently varied parameters in DME and
TCAS modes, such as Range and Rate, dedicated
keys are provided.
Operational Modes
Each operational mode has one main user screen. The operational
modes are:
XPDR (Sub-Modes: ADS-B MON, ADS-B GEN & GICB)
DME
TCAS 1, 2 (Sub-Modes: TIS)
Most tests can be completed without leaving the main user screens.
This simplifies the line technician's testing task.

Mode S and ATCRBS Transponder
XPDR Auto-Test:
Every parameter the user commonly needs to view is displayed on one
screen.
The auto-test performs all tests defined by FAR Part 43 Appendix F,
including the proposed Eurocontrol additional tests.
The tests are tailored automatically according to reported transponder level to avoid erroneous failures.
The test list is selected from the auto-test screen. This provides an
easy means of selecting any of the individual tests that comprise the
auto-test.
Tests on the 2nd screen (not shown) include:
13 UF21
14 UF24
15 ELEMENTARY SURVEILLANCE 1
16 ELEMENTARY SURVEILLANCE 2
17 ENHANCED SURVEILLANCE
Individual tests may be reviewed for failures which are identified by
an arrow symbol.
User selects config required for test.
If the class of the transponder is unknown, the generic config may be
selected which applies to the widest limits.
The test set will automatically determine the Mode S transponder
level.
The selected config parameters may be displayed by pressing the
INFO softkey.
Eight predetermined configs are provided to meet the currently fielded transponder test needs.
The Eurocontrol Elementary Surveillance DAP's (Downlink Aircraft
Parameters) are displayed on two screens.
Eurocontrol Enhanced Surveillance DAP’s are displayed on one
screen.
