摘要

The engineering requirements of this contract were divided into two tasks: Ground Test System (GTS) Sustaining Engineering and Enhancements to the GTS. The conclusion of the activities associated with these two tasks was to provide a system to support 'real time' data collection, display, recording and analysis for the Astro 2 mission. Task 1, GTS Sustaining Engineering, included those activities associated with providing GTS support to the Government during utilization of the system. This support consisted of analyzing system anomalies and providing software corrections for any design and implementation errors. Support under this task also included the investigation of product improvements to facilitate ease of system utilization or to enhance existing capabilities provided. Within the scope of the second task, the contractor was required to design, code, test, and demonstrate the following enhancements to the GTS: (1) activation and deactivation of individual measurements being Exception Monitored; edit capability for strip chart measurements; provision of printout flags for Exception Monitor begin/end; strip chart recorder release during loss of signal; addition of data type 'E' for display; major frame dump in hex format; snapshot of Event monitor based on measurement status; and Ethernet interface utilizing the POCC Peripheral Processor Protocol.
