<p>In accordance with the present invention, an aircraft instrumentation interface (10) for use with at least one electrically conductive mechanical key (12) disposed in an interface connector (14) and has an orientation specific to a particular type of aircraft equipment configuration. The interface is provided with a key engagement member (16) which is formed to electrically engage the mechanical key (12) for sensing the angular orientation of the mechanical key. The interface is further provided with an aircraft equipment configuration sensor (18) for identifying the aircraft equipment configuration type in response to sensed orientation of the mechanical key (12) and for generating an electrical signal in response to the identification of the origination of the mechanical key (12).</p> |
