Specific Test Limitations and Discrepancies
While every effort has been made to provide comprehensive coverage of the RTCA/DO-160 tests,
some limitations apply, largely due to hardware limitations of the MX power source such as available
programming resolution or rounding. The following table lists specific implementation issues by test
number. The deviation from the standard requirement
is shown in the “Actual setting” column. The
reason for the deviation is shown in the last column.

i/iX Series
–DO160 Option Limitations
The extent of coverage of the
–160 option as implemented on the iX Series platform is shown in the
table below. Tests marked with an „x‟ generally require additional hardware to be used. Tests marked
„N/A‟ are not applicable to the corresponding table. Tests marked with a „
‟ are covered by the –160
option. Tests marked with a „P‟ require arbitrary waveform capability, which is available on iX models
only. Tests marked with an “I” are available on the i/iX products only. Tests marked with a „C‟ are
available on the Compact iX products only.
