A CD-850 Clearance Delivery Control Head is also part of the system. Communication and Navigation Products Innovative Solutions & Support Proprietary Information Innovative Solutions & Support Proprietary Information Innovative Solutions & Support Proprietary Information Innovative Solutions & Support Proprietary Information Innovative Solutions & Support Proprietary Information Innovative Solutions & Support Proprietary Information RM-855 Radio Management Unit The RM-855 RMU is a liquid crystal display unit primary interface used to control the Primus II radio system in the Primus 1000 and Primus 2000 flight decks. Key Benefits: • High frequency tuning, NAV Radio back up tuning, 3rd Com tuning • Switch COM radios from voice to data mode (when equipped) • Option to show a navigation radio magnetic indicator & engine backup display on the RMU • Upgrades are easier - software only • Required for ADS-B Out mandate The RM-855 Radio Management Unit (RMU) is mounted in the cockpit panel and is the primary interface used to control the radio system functions. Required for ADS-B Out Mandate on the following aircraft: • Bombardier Learjet 40 / 45 & 70/75 • Embraer Legacy 600 / 650 • Gulfstream PlaneView Cockpits G350 / 450 / 500 / 550 • Textron Cessna Citation VII, X, Model 560 (Ultra, Encore, Excel and XLS) • Textron Hawker 800 Innovative Solutions & Support Proprietary Information Innovative Solutions & Support Proprietary Information AV-850 / AV-850A Digital Audio Panel • The AV-850 receives digitized audio from remote radio units. The digitized audio is provided through two high-speed digital audio buses. This is usually installed in a dual system configuration. • System No. 1 is on the pilot's or left side. System No. 2 is on the copilot's or right side. Up to six audio panels are installed in the aircraft on the high-speed digital audio buses. • Each audio panel contains hardware, which switches the microphones to various radio units. The audio panel also contains hardware for the interphones, cabin audio, and intercoms. Amplifiers are provided to drive the headphones and speakers. • The audio panel is a standard Dzus rail-mount package and uses electroluminescent panel lighting. • The audio control unit decodes the digital data, controls the gain (volume) of the various channels, adds the channels together, does various filter functions on the audio, and outputs the audio to a digital- to-analog converter. It contains hardware for switching microphones to various radios, for the interphones, and for the passenger cabin audio and intercoms. Amplifiers are supplied for driving headphones and speakers Innovative Solutions & Support Proprietary Information Innovative Solutions & Support Proprietary Information • The CD-850 Clearance Delivery Control Head (CDH) is an alternate or emergency backup capability for tuning the No. 1 VHF COM Module and the No. 1 VHF NAV Receiver Module, on private line data buses that remain operational if the primary Radio System Bus (RSB) tuning is not available, or if the pilot/operator wishes to override the bus tuning for any reason. The CDH listens on the RSB and displays the active frequencies of these two modules. • The CDH is located on the center console in the cockpit of the aircraft between the RMUs, just forward of the engine power levers. • The CDH uses a translative, dichroic (black dye) LCD for enhanced readability and reliability. The panel lettering and buttons are internally lit using aviation blue—white lighting. • The CDH has strap options that select various features of the COM or VOR radios in the emergency mode. These features are set at the rear connector by jumper straps. • The normal and emergency modes are sub modes selected by the mode knob CD-850 Clearance Delivery Control Head (CDH) Innovative Solutions & Support Proprietary Information Innovative Solutions & Support Proprietary Information • The RNZ-851 Integrated Navigation Unit is a complete, self-- contained navigation system. It contains the NV-850 VHF NAV Receiver, the DM- 850 DME, and the DF-850 ADF modules. Also, within the RNZ--851 is an XN-850 Cluster Module that supplies the interface with the NV--850, DM- 850, DF-850 and other units of the integrated radio system and digitizes the received audio for the digital audio system. Cooling is supplied by a noncritical, rack-mounted fan. Temperature sensors inside the individual modules report temperature rise to the cluster module, which switches the fan on and monitors its operation. When the temperature drop sufficiently, the fan is switched OFF.
