| | RTX ARINC 429 Serial Port Adapter |
 | | The RTX ARINC 429 Serial Port Adapter (RTXSPA429) is a compact device that can plug into the serial port of any computer, running any operating system, and enables the user to access 4 ARINC 429 channels easily and inexpensively. |
 | | In order for the RTXSPA429 to construct an ARINC 429 data word, 5 bytes of data, in RTXbyte429 format, needs to be sent to the serial port that the RTXSPA429 is attached to. |
 | | In a manner similar to the transmission of ARINC 429 data, the RTXSPA429 receivers translate each incoming 32 bit ARINC 429 data word into the 5 byte RTXbyte429 format, and sends the bytes to the attached RS232 serial port. |
