L3Harris RDI FDR and CVR Data Interface

RDI (L3Harris) Features and Specifications *

The RDI (Recorder Device Interface) is an advanced, portable download tool designed to retrieve voice and flight recorder data from aircrafts securely and quickly. This device supports 1GB Ethernet of data, enabling faster download speeds required to support the new 25-hour mandate for cockpit voice recording, including the new L3Harris SRVIVR25™ series. It is a ruggedized tablet compliant to IP65 and MIL-STD-810G standards to withstand harsh environments. 

The RDI is designed with input from airlines and OEMs, and its intuitive user interface and easy workflow menus do not require special training to perform key tasks. Operators can quickly retrieve cockpit voice, datalink, flight data, and fault logs without removing the recorder from the aircraft. There are live monitoring features that can be used to quickly validate the audio channels/microphones and the FDR data parameters for real-time troubleshooting on the aircraft. 

All files are securely retrieved and stored on the RDI device to protect the integrity and confidentiality of its contents. Various license options are offered to decrypt and convert files to standard formats on the RDI. Additional licenses allow operators the ability to transfer the files to the flight department as well as upload the files to secure on-line portals. The secure files include .wav files for the audio channel, .dlk for datalink, and various A717 formats for flight data. The secure files can be transmitted to L3Harris Data Services through an optional subscription for fast turnaround times for audio intelligibility and regulatory checks and/or Flight Operations Quality Assurance (FOQA) programs.
