The IAC 1087 delivers the world’s most capable
aircraft diagnostic system in a portable light weight, rugged enclosure that is easy
to operate and provides easy-to-understand corrective actions. The IAC 1087 is part
of a growing family of adaptable and interchangeable hardware and software machinery
diagnostic products offered by IAC. The Windows® compatible PC-GBS analysis software
included with your purchase of the IAC 1087 can also be used with all IAC onboard (HUMS)
systems. Available options include the IAC 1047 iMDS-Server, the iMDS Database Setup Tool
and the iMDS Matlab® Development Toolbox.
Rugged and fully programmable, the IAC 1087 performs helicopter rotor smoothing, engine
performance checks, component balancing, vibration surveys and complex vibration component
analysis.
Maintenance actions are displayed with a demonstrated easy-to-use and easy-to-understand
Personal Computer Ground Based System (PC-GBS) that can dramatically increase aircraft
availability and readiness. The IAC 1087 can be configured for virtually any machinery diagnostic
application.
The IAC 1087 is offered with a Basic Kit* and aircraft specific adapter kits. The Basic Kit
contains the Data Acquisition Unit (DAU), PC-GBS analysis software, vibration sensors, cables
and accessories. Aircraft specific adapter kits consist of sensor mounting brackets, cables
and additional sensors required. All cables, brackets and sensors are fully compatible with the
RADS-AT™ / Aviation Vibration Analyzer (AVA). The Windows® compatible
PC-GBS diagnostic software triggers DAU measurements producing easy-tounderstand OEM recommended
maintenance actions to maintainers for rotor smoothing, engines and the entire drive train.

PC Based Host Software Application
The PC-GBS Windows® compatible software program receives measured data
from IAC 1087, stores this data into a database, then analyzes this data to produce
easy-to-understand corrective actions for maintainers. The PC-GBS software can also act
as a simple mechanism to collect and transfer data from the field to a centralized web
server. This provides users with remote monitoring, trending, data analysis and automatic
software upgrades for the IAC 1087.
