9.1.2.1 General
The -160 option supports RTCA/DO-160 rev E, Section 16, voltage and frequency immunity tests
in either of the AC or DC modes. This option can only be used in conjunction with the provided
CIGui32 Windows application software due to the amount of selections and data presentation
involved. As such, these tests require the use of a PC running Windows XP / 2000 and cannot
be operated from the front panel.
The
–160 option is based on the RTCA/DO-160 Environmental Conditions and Test Procedures
for Airborne Equipment: Section 16
– Power Input dated December 9 2004.
Future revisions of the RTCA/DO-160 directive may be issued over time and updates may be
made available to cover any changes in test levels, durations, procedures etc. Furthermore, the
–160 option is completely data file driven to allow a large degree of customization by the end-
user if needed so many changes can be supported without the need for software updates.

Note: This DO160 Rev E implementation uses arbitrary waveform capabilities, harmonic measurements and
AC+DC mode, none of which are supported on i Series models. Contact California Instruments for information on
upgrading i Series models to iX Series.
