A320 Simulator ISIS

CNFSimulator.A320 ISIS Product Specification (PDF)

Product Overview

The CnTech A320 Integrated Standby Instrument System panel (ISIS) is modelled 1:1 on the real panel in appearance, dimensions and operating logic, and is installed in the corresponding position of the simulated cockpit centre instrument panel. The centre of the panel has a cut-out of 89 × 89 mm, so the standby instrument picture on the cockpit display sits directly "inside" the panel — buttons, encoder and markings all reproduce the real aircraft, saving a dedicated screen while making the instrument larger and sharper.

• Installs in the corresponding position of the simulated cockpit centre instrument panel
• Connects standalone to simulation software, or integrates into a full cockpit
• Central cut-out of 89 × 89 mm, with the instrument rendered by the display behind
• A 16P ribbon into ABRK carries both signal and power

Key Features

• 1:1 Authentic Reproduction
  Panel appearance, dimensions, markings and mounting holes follow the real aircraft; once installed in the centre instrument panel it is indistinguishable from the original.
• Cut-Out Display Scheme
  The centre has a cut-out of 89 × 89 mm; the panel is stacked on the display and uses the screen picture directly — no dedicated display needed, and the picture is larger and sharper.
• Professional Light-Guide Backlight
  Aviation-grade light-guide plate with a high-grade baked finish; warm-white backlight spreads evenly and brightness follows the real aircraft dimming logic.
• Buttons and Encoder
  The BUGS / LS / + / − / RST buttons and the BARO encoder reproduce the real aircraft feel and stay accurate even when operating with gloves on.
• CAN Bus Communication
  Communicates with the computer over a CAN bus through the ABRK panel — stable, reliable and strongly interference-resistant.
• High Compatibility
  Together with the iFSim.Ready software it supports MSFS, Prepar3D, X-Plane and other mainstream platforms.

Functional Description

The panel takes buttons and an encoder as inputs, and uses backlighting and the cockpit display picture as outputs. All signals and power reach the panel over a single 16P ribbon into ABRK, so it can be used standalone or combined with panels such as TERN.

Display Scheme · 89 × 89 mm Cut-Out

• Cut-out of 89 × 89 mm, aligned 1:1 with the real screen position
• The panel carries no display — it reuses the cockpit display picture directly
• Screen requirement: active display area of at least 89 × 89 mm

Input Functions · Buttons and Encoder
Inputs are self-resetting push-buttons plus a push-capable encoder, engraved as on the real aircraft, with a clear detent feel when pressed.

• BUGS / LS — switch the standby instrument display mode
• + / − — adjust the backlight brightness
• RST — reset; BARO — push-capable encoder that sets the barometric reference

Electrical Interface · 16P + 6P Ribbons

• Dual-row 16P: connects to ABRK, carrying both signal and power
• Single-row 6P: expansion port for the TERN panel
• Link: ISIS → ABRK → CnTech CAN Box → computer
