Orbiter/payload avionics integration testing in the shuttle program are discussed. Payloads show extensive orbiter interfaces. The three testing modes used to verify orbiter/payload avionics interfaces are described. These modes consist of orbiter testing using generic payload simulators, payload testing utilizing the actual payload and a high fidelity orbiter simulator, and interface testing with the actual orbiter and payload. Several special avionics techniques, such as the split flight computer technique were developed for this testing. Experience from the first six shuttle cargoes is reviewed and problems found in testing that would have hampered mission success are emphasized.
