The ISAT-200 provides automatic, global, real time flight following, an audio interface and text messaging and data transfer using Iridium’s nexgen modem. The ISAT 200 is smaller and lighter than its predecessor and has more processing power, improved voice quality, and superior memory capacity. This hardware is equipped with an SD card reader and USB port; both of which can be used for quick and easy firmware upgrades. An SD Card can also be used to record flight data which can later be downloaded to a PC and analyzed. The ISAT-200 is equipped with an internal, field replaceable battery. The ISAT-200 is installed using a “smart” tray, which stores configuration information such as reporting intervals and aircraft registration number. The tray is available with either ARINC 404 or Blind Mate connectors. When transmitting data with the ISAT-200, users may select either standard or premium data packets. The standard packet includes lat/long, GPS time, ground speed, altitude and heading. The new premium packet includes the standard transmission and the registration number (or some other identifying number) appended to each position report at the time of generation. This provides greater audit capability and better traceability of data.
