In the world of aviation, the Airfield Lighting Control and Monitoring System (AGLCMS) is the central intelligence that ensures pilots can navigate safely, regardless of visibility. Installing and maintaining these systems requires a blend of high-voltage expertise and sophisticated software integration.

​

       We provide end-to-end lifecycle support for Airfield Lighting Control and Monitoring Systems (AGLCMS). Our services ensure that Tower Controllers have instantaneous, fail-safe control over every light on the airfield—from the Approach clusters to the Runway centerline and Taxiway guidance.

​

     1. System Installation & Modernization

        We manage the complex deployment of AGLCMS hardware and software, transitioning airports from manual constant current regulator (CCR) control to fully automated, touchscreen-driven systems.

​

• HMI (Human Machine Interface) Setup: Installation of touchscreen control consoles in the Air Traffic Control (ATC) tower and the Airfield Lighting Vault (ALV).

• CCR Integration: Wiring and interfacing Constant Current Regulators with the control logic to allow for multi-step brightness control.

• Fiber Optic Backbone: Laying the redundant communication rings (typically fiber) that link the tower to various remote substations and lighting vaults.

• PLC Programming & Commissioning: Configuring the logic controllers that execute the "Safe Routing" and "Follow-the-Greens" commands.

​

     2. Individual Light Control & Monitoring (ILCMS)

        For advanced Category II/III airports, we install ILCMS modules to provide granular data on every single fixture.

​

• Smart-Lamps: Installation of addressable switching units at each light base.

• Real-time Feedback: Integration of monitoring circuits that alert maintenance teams to a single lamp failure or earth leakage within seconds.

• Stop-Bar Integration: Precise cabling and logic setup for controllable stop-bars to prevent runway incursions.

​

     3. Comprehensive Maintenance & Health Checks

       AGL systems operate in extreme outdoor environments. Our maintenance programs are designed to prevent system failure before it occurs.

​

• Photometric Testing: Regular measurement of light output to ensure compliance with ICAO Annex 14 and FAA standards.

• Insulation Resistance (IR) Testing: Routine "meggering" of series circuits to detect cable jacket degradation or moisture ingress.

• CCR Calibration: Periodic testing of regulators to ensure they deliver the exact current steps required for various visibility conditions.

• Software Updates & Cyber Security: Patching AGLCMS software to protect the airfield network from unauthorized access or glitches.

​

     4. Emergency & Fail-Safe Engineering

• Redundancy Testing: Verification of dual-redundant servers and communication paths to ensure zero-second switchover in case of a hardware fault.

• UPS & Battery Backup: Installation and load-testing of Uninterruptible Power Supplies dedicated to the AGLCMS logic.

     Key Performance Advantages

• Enhanced Situational Awareness: We provide controllers with a "digital twin" of the airfield, showing the exact status of all navigational aids.

• Energy Efficiency: Through precise CCR control and LED migration, we help airports reduce power consumption by up to 40%.

• Regulatory Compliance: All works are documented for civil aviation audits, ensuring your airport meets EASA/FAA/ICAO certification requirements.
