Universal Avionics Systems Corporation is committed to the advancement of navigation systems. The Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS) including WAAS, EGNOS, MSAT & GAGAN capable FMS and Multi-Mission Management System (MMMS) builds upon popular, market-proven product design, offering new features and interfaces, and the
ability to meet the requirements of the future.
The FMS accepts position information from up to five long-range navigation sensors as well as a VOR, TACAN, or scanning DME sensor. The data from these sensors is used to determine the best computed position. This position is used by the FMS for navigating the aircraft along a programmed flight plan. Flight plans are created using the navigation database. The database locates waypoints along an entered route and combines these waypoints to form a flight plan.
The UNS-1Ew is a self-contained FMS within a single panel-mountable enclosure. The UNS-1Ew can be configured as either an all-digital or a digital-analog system depending on the complement of boards installed. The front of the unit contains a 5-inch diagonal full-color Active-Matrix Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and an alphanumeric keypad.
