Easy Upgrade for Existing ILS RDT Installations
The 2nd Generation Remote Data Terminal (RDT) Board Retrofit Kit is designed to make upgrading from a 1st generation RDT control board fast and straightforward.
ILS understands that many first‑generation RDT boards are still in service and have provided years of reliable operation. When the time comes to replace an older board, this retrofit kit allows customers to upgrade to the 2nd generation control board with minimal downtime and without requiring specialized tools or soldering.
The 2nd generation control board is pre‑mounted to a retrofit panel, allowing for an easy, do‑it‑yourself installation.
Key installation advantages include:
This approach makes board replacement manageable for on‑site personnel.
To simplify installation further, the retrofit kit includes pre‑installed cable assemblies for:
With cables already in place, installation time is reduced and the chance of wiring errors is minimized.
The kit includes a transition mounting plate that allows the new 2nd generation board assembly to fit directly onto the existing RDT back panel.
This ensures:
ILS RDT boards are known for their long service life. This retrofit kit extends that philosophy by allowing customers to modernize aging terminals while keeping the rest of their infrastructure intact.
If questions arise during installation, ILS technicians are available to help. Support is provided by phone, and technicians can walk you through the replacement process step by step.
