The Aeroflex / IFR TCAS-201 simulates the airborne environment necessary for verification/certification of TCAS installations performing many of the required tests for Supplemental Type Certification (STC) during initial installation and subsequent routine maintenance.
The TCAS-201 includes the capability to monitor TCAS interrogations (displaying decoded information/communication data) and generating ATCRBS or Mode S replies that simulate threat aircraft for bearing accuracy checks.
Programming flexibility of the TCAS-201 allows the operator to exercise and generate Traffic Advisory (TA) and Resolution Advisory (RA) alerts.
