Honeywell Sales Bulletin 2016BK-22 Rev B BendixKing RDR 2060 Weather Radar Upgrade

1. Introduction

This Sales Bulletin describes how existing operators of the BendixKing RDR 2000 Weather Radar System can upgrade to a RDR 2060 System which provides50% more power and additional safety enhancement and pilot workload reduction features.

In addition to the upgrade, Bendix King will incorporate Mods 1-13, excluding Mod 3, at no additional cost.

If additional items are found that require repair they will be included at no charge unless it is determined, per Bendix King standard practice, unless the unit is Beyond Economical Repair (BER), as declared by Bendix King, at its sole discretion.

The result will be a complete refresh and performance upgrade of your existing radar at a third the cost of a new unit.

Just return your existing ART 2000 and select the RDR 2060 upgrade and reference this bulletin. Turnaround time at our Olathe Service Center is estimated at less than seven days if no unrelated additional failure requiring repair is identified (see return details in section 6.1).

An exchange program offering immediate availability (subject to demand) is also available for a premium over the return process (see section 6.2 for additional details).

The RDR 2060 is also available as a new production system. Refer to the BendixKing website for additional details.

2. Upgrade Description

The RDR2060 system is an upgraded RDR 2000 system utilizing a new version of our more powerful and feature rich ART 2100 receiver/transmitter. This new version ART 2100 fits and operates in the same space and uses identical mounting as the ART 2000. An upgrade path to convert an ART 2000 to this new version ART 2100 has been approved and is now available for operators. The upgrade applies to the ART only, all other system components such as antenna plate remain unchanged.

To increase the power and add the features listed below, the ART 2000 is fitted with the ART 2100 magnetron and software providing the additional features. Because these items are already used on a TSO'd ART 2100, the operator receives a qualified, field proven upgraded weather radar at one third the price of a newly purchased system.

The upgraded ART 2100 will need to be re-configured per the Installation Manual.

Table 3.0

3.1 Auto Range Limiting

Automatic Range Limiting (ARL) causes the display to depict areas that the radar cannot penetrate due to signal attenuation. Typically, the ARL display will show blue areas on the far side of a series of severe weather systems. This cautions the pilot to avoid flight into the blue areas due to the uncertainty of weather conditions.

3.2 Sector Scans

Sector Scan allows faster updates on rapidly changing areas by isolating a 60 degree sector.

3.3 Auto Step Scan

Auto Step Scan causes the antenna tilt to sequentially step in 4? increments. This allows the pilot to Vertical Profile the entire azimuth scan angle by simply watching successive antenna scans.

3.4 Auto Tilt

Allows the antenna position to be automatically adjusted to maintain a common beam intercept point with the earth e.g. if the last 10% of the display is ground returns, then during ascent or decent the antenna tilt is automatically changed to maintain ground returns on 10% of the display.

4. System Considerations

The RDR 2000/2060/2100 Weather Radar Systems consists of the Antenna/Receiver/Transmitter (ART), the System Antenna, the Configuration Module and a Radar Indicator or Multi-Function Display.

The following Honeywell Radar Indicators and MFD's are capable of displaying the additional features listed in Table 3.0.

? IN-862A/B ? EFIS 40/50 ? KMD850

The use of other manufacturer's indicators and/or MFDs may not enable the additional features listed in Table 3.0. The extent of compatibility can only be defined by the radar indicator and/or MFD manufacturer. Contact your indicator and/or MFD manufacturer for details.

Contact Technical Support (email: techsupport@) or your BendixKing Area Sales Manager for further details (see section 6 for contact details).

5. Pricing

The RDR 2060 upgrade involves converting your ART 2000 P/N 071-01519-0101 to ART 2100 P/N 071-01550-0201. The returned ART 2000 will go through a thorough inspection to determine which outstanding Mods (1-13) have been incorporated as well as any additional items requiring repair. The unit must be in repairable condition and have at least Mod 3 incorporated. In addition to the upgrade, Mods 1, 2, 4, 5, 5SW, 6, 8 & 9 will be incorporated, if not already, at no additional charge. Mods 7, 10, 11, 12 and 13 will also be incorporated on an as required basis, if not already, at no additional charge. Additional items requiring repair will also be included at no charge.
