Teledyne Controls Portable Data Loader-615/MSD (PDL-615/MSD

One Loader for the Entire Fleet With over 2500 units in service, the ARINC 615 Portable Data Loader Mass Storage Device (PDL-615/MSD) is considered the industry standard ARINC 615 loader. Used by over 150 airlines and operators worldwide, Teledyne's PDL-615/MSD can load avionics systems on virtually all commercial, regional and business aircraft to support the ARINC 615 data loading needs of any airline, for their entire fleet. Unlike traditional PDLs, the PDL-615/MSD is equipped with an internal solid state Mass Storage Device (MSD) that can store an entire library of Software Parts (SPs). The PDL can load avionics LRUs with parts from the MSD library or from a floppy disk. LoadStar® Connectivity Teledyne offers two options for the PDL-615/MSD's remote software interface: LoadStar® or Loadstar® Server Enterprise (LSE). These configuration management software packages enable operators to configure SPs from their desktop. The Software Parts can be configured by LRU (Line Replaceable Unit), aircraft type and customer part number for added control. The configured SPs are then distributed through an Ethernet link directly from the Loadstar or LSE application to the PDL-615/MSD's memory, enabling maintenance mechanics to perform multi-disk loading quickly and automatically. Electronic distribution eliminates the need for floppy disks, significantly reducing data loading efforts and ultimately aircraft turn around time.
