Implementation of ARINC429 Test Equipment with 16 Channels Communication card and dataSIMS

This bachelor thesis includes two different manuals and design of an interface box between a test object and a general test station (computer) with ARINC429 communication. There are three different purposes with this project: The first is to setup a general test station with ARINC429 communication using a communications card from DDC (DD-42916i3-300) and software from Ampol Technologies (dataSIMS). The second is to design a new interface between the test computer and the test object. As well as implementing two components in the equipment. The third is to write two separate manuals to guide the users of this equipment. There are two different kinds of users of this equipment, technicians and system engineers. Technicians use the equipment to test and repair flight components. System engineers will implement new components in the equipment. The result of this project is a working test station with a new interface and two manuals
