System 500 Real-Time Data Acquisition & Visualization System

The System 500 Real-Time Data Acquisition & Visualization System for Telemetry and Avionics is a real-time data acquisition, mass storage, and distribution system using SGI workstations for control, analysis, and real-time visualization. The system is found in such hig-performance applications as: aviation flight test ground stations, satellite launch and operations command and control (telemetry and CCSDS), aviaonics equipment test and integration, packet communications multiplexing and denultiplexing, and other very high-speed multi-stream applications. Workstations display selected real-time data in a variety of user-defined graph formats (e.g., strip and bar charts), process diagrams, and analysis packages.
