INFO
PCAS MRX is the world’s smallest collision avoidance device, yet sacrifices none of the features previous upper-end systems have become known for. New!!! Updated MRX with external audio capabilities, as requested by many customers. The new product, MRX with Audio (MRXA-A), is clad in a cool new semi-transparent dark charcoal housing and comes with a professional audio cable which will allow traffic alerts to be heard through a headset, similar to the way XRX alerts can be heard. A small audio port is introduced into the side of the unit.
MRX displays range and relative altitude of the closest threat, with continuous monitoring of the top 10 threats within the 5 NM scalable detection window. Altitude detection is scalable up to +/- 5000 ft.
At 2.5” (65mm) W x 4.2” (107mm) D x 0.6” (17mm) H, MRX is smaller than a deck of cards. MRX uses an easy menu-driven interface and audio annunciations for traffic advisories and alerts. The unit boasts a built in solid-state altimeter for "always relative" altitude information, and built-in temperature compensators and overtemp protection. Information is displayed on the high-brightness LED display (dimmable). MRX also monitors aircraft bus voltage and host transponder output.
The unit is powered by aircraft power (12-40 VDC adapter included) or 2 "AA" Batteries (with 8+ hours of use). MRX is half the size, 1/3 less price, portable and offers better accuracy and many more features than the ATD-300.
Zaon PCAS systems: the best portable collision avoidance systems on the planet. Why would you fly without it?
