Excellent visual performance
As all other Barco avionics displays,
the FDU-2000 family uses state-ofthe-art Active Matrix Liquid Crystal
Display (AMLCD) technology, delivering
exceptionally high brightness and
excellent contrast. Moreover, the
displays’ XGA resolution (1024 x 768)
guarantees highly detailed renderings
of all navigation and terrain symbology.
Finally, the wide viewing angle of
80° allows for optimum cross-cockpit
scanning by either pilot.

Easy integration
The FDU-2000 displays are fitted with
leading edge electronics that enable a
very compact footprint and minimum
power consumption. Because of this,
the FDU-2000s integrate easily into
the digital Electronic Flight Instruments
System of nearly all new and retrofit
cockpits.

technology
State-of-the-art LED backlights deliver
excellent brightness and maximum
reliability over the entire lifetime of the
display. Moreover, the LED technology
ensures a wide viewing angle in all
directions and an extremely broad color
gamut for perfect color representations.
