Welcome to an all new Shadin .com!

With a range of feature previously unavailable in general aviation, the Shadin Avionics AMS-2000 Altitude Management and Alert System brings advanced instrumentation to new levels of function and affordability. The Shadin Avionics AMS-2000 uses information from Mode-C altitude encoder to deliver:

  • Time-based Altitude Alerting, rather than fixed altitude buffers.
  • Automatic calculation and display of Density Altitude.
  • Real-time display of IVS without the inherent lag of your aircraft's static system.
  • Calculation and display of Aircraft and Engine Performance Percentage, at your demand.

These are but a few of the Standard features that are make the AMS-2000 the best value in advanced altitude monitoring instrumentation:

  • FAA approved. TSO C88a, DO-160B.
    An appropriate audio and visual warning broadcast upon deviation outside a user-selected envelope surrounding your assigned altitude.
  • Smooth capture of your cruise altitude is facilitated by a level-off warning sounded and displayed at a user-defined distance from target altitude.
  • Alerts you just above your pre-selected Decision Height or MDA.
  • Gear-down reminder.
  • Displays density altitude and aircraft/engine performance percentage.
  • Digital display of altitude from -1000 to +62,000 feet in 100 foot increments.
  • Adjustable audio alert tone and level.
  • Compatible with most Mode-C transponders in current production.
  • Standard rectangular 1/2 ATI configuration.
  • Made in the U.S.A., the AMS-2000 features a 12-month warranty.

The AMS-2000 coupled with the Falcon Altitude Encoder provides all advanced altitude alert functions previously noted, plus the following high-resolution altitude management functions:

  • Time-based level-off warning sounded and displayed 15 seconds from target altitude--smooth capture is assured regardless of climb or descent rate.
  • Digital display of altitude from -1000 to +62,000 feet in high resolution, 10-foot increments.
  • Digital reading of Instantaneous Vertical Speed (IVS).
  • Deviation envelope is adjustable in 10 foot increments


The AMS-2000 Plus Falcon Encoder: High-Resolution Time-Based Capture, IVS--And More.

For the ultimate in enhanced instrumentation, couple the AMS-2000 system with Shadin Avionics' high-resolution Falcon Encoder. These unites combined offer features found only in instrumentation costing much more, and that are generally unavailable to private aircraft.

In addition to driving the aircraft transponder, the Shadin Avionics Falcon Encoder provides an enhanced, high-resolution signal to the AMS-2000. This combination of powerful, yet affordable components makes the AMS/Falcon system the only instrument in its price range to offer real-time display, and an adjustable deviation buffer in ten-foot increments.

With this configuration, you'll be provided a time-based level-off warning 15 seconds from your target for smooth and efficient altitude capture--regardless of your rate of climb or decent.
