Simulation Products
ARC-231 Simulation
The ARC-231 Simulation, through a common ICD, is designed to support all levels of training fidelity and may be integrated
into desktop, part-task, operational and maintenance training devices. The ARC-231 Simulation provides all required menu-driven operations,
internal diagnosis and Built-in-Test (BIT) modes, advanced data mode, interoperability features, preset modes and all required operating
modes of the actual ARC-231 radio.
The ARC-231 Software Architecture is based on the Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and the object oriented C# programming language. Each radio control and function is a unique C# class. Parallel execution of tasks is performed via C# threads. The ARC-231 Simulation runs in the Microsoft Windows Vista, XP, NT, and 2000 operating system environment.
The ARC-231 Simulation Executive simulates the functionality of the ARC- 231 Radio Receiver-Transmitter (R/T), provides menu control for the control indicator displays, and interacts with the simulator environment via five software threads.
The most affordable, effective solution for training the operation of the ARC-231 Radio is provided by the Pinnacle Solutions ARC-231 Simulator.
