AvMap Satellite Navigation today announced the integration of Zaon Flight System’s PCASTM XRXTM for use with their popular EKP-IV and GeoPilot II Plus aeronautical GPS navigators. PCAS (Portable Collision Avoidance System) is Zaon's solution for providing high-quality, low-cost traffic information to the general aviation pilot. “The affordable Zaon system makes it possible for general aviation and light-sport aircraft pilots to take advantage of stand-alone collision avoidance with target direction,” states Dan Lyons, AvMap Sales Manager. A simple hookup of the PCAS XRX directly to the AvMap system provides traffic alerts, pop-ups, and the reliability and accuracy of XRX overlayed directly onto the GPS screen. A key benefit of the technology used by Zaon’s XRX is that it can provide traffic information via AvMap’s display anywhere in the world since it uses transponder replies (like TCAS) to determine azimuth and relative altitude. |
