In this system, up to five test articles can be supported concurrently in real time. Data are received via both low- and high-speed telemetry links into a common data acquisition subsystem. The data acquisition subsystem consists of Metraplex and Aydin monitor hardware. Data is then routed into several-purpose telemetry preprocessors where they are tagged, edited and processed. The low-speed telemetry preprocessors are designed to use SEL 3270 computers. The new high-speed telemetry preprocessors use VAX 8600 coupled with Micro VAX II. In the architecture, the analysis and display elements have been combined to form an intelligent workstation environment using commercially available computers and displays. Each workstation can execute several real-time programs and direct data to two 19" high resolution monitors. Function keys, programmable latch keys and other user friendly input devices allow the test engineer to interact with the system and support the test requirements.
