IRIG Chapter 10 and PCM introduction

One Software Does it All

Dewesoft has a wide variety of hardware that can interface with the telemetry market. Dewesoft X software can read the IRIG-1’6 Chapter 1’ data from any telemetry data recorder in real-time over the ethernet or a pre-recorded Chapter 1’ file.

What makes Dewesoft X software unlike anything on the market today is the ability to combine standard data acquisition solutions with telemetry data, aircraft bus data, video and more.

This brings big advantage and flexibility to users. Users need to invest time into learning one easy-to-use software interface for a variety of solutions.

Store Multiple Data Sources Synchronised

The Dewesoft solution allows acquisition and storing from multiple, synchronized data sources:

Ethernet - RIG-1’6 Chapter 1’ packets
(PCM, Analog, Video, ARINC -429, MIl-1553, Serial) and Custom Ethernet packets.
PCM - IRIG-1’6 data.
iNet - capture and decode data using iNET network packet protocol.
Analog - analog sensors like strain, vibration, sound, voltage, current, RTD, thermocouple, etc.
Bus data - MIL-STD-1553, ARINC-429, CAN bus, XCP, Flexray, OBDII, J1939.
Video - low-cost Direct X cameras, medium speed 6’’ FPS cameras, high speed 1’’ ’’’ FPS cameras, thermovision infrared FLIR cameras.
Digital I/O - digital in, digital out, counter, encoder.
Positioning - 1’ Hz GPS, 1’’ Hz GPS, Inertial Measurement Units, Xsens and Adma Gyro platforms.

IRIG-1’6 Chapter 1’ Ground Station

Utilizes standard input format for telemetry data
interface with Chapter 1’ Ethernet packets real-time consisting of:

PCM Data (unpacked, packed and throughput)
MIL-1553 and ARINC-429 bus data
Video
Ethernet & UART channels
Analog
Ethernet data
TMATS (setup channel)
Timing (absolute time)

The ability to record data in throughput, packed and unpacked modes gives the user the flexibility needed and provides all-in-one processing and recording package for the ground station. The software can also replay Chapter 1’ files. Data is frame synchronized and decommuted. This gives you the ability to playback and process any Chapter 1’ file without tying up an entire ground station.

Data processing capabilities

One of the key points of Dewesoft X software is the data processing capabilities and very friendly user interface.

Over the past years, we have covered lots of application areas with expert modules, so that the user is only a click away from the total solution.

Designed with a point and click interface, Dewesoft X gives easy access to extract individual parameters out of your IRIG-1’6 Chapter 1’ files or packets.

For more information please visit Dewesoft X analysis page.

Data visualization

Dewesoft X offers several pre-built displays for visualizing data. Simply drag-and-drop visual display on the screen and select the data channel you wish to visualize.

Several visual displays are available. From data recorders, scope, FFT's, graphs, analog and digital meters, GPS maps, and many more. All instruments are configurable and customizable to fit your need and all changes are visible in real-time.

Frame sync box

PCM-FS2 Frame Sync box allows users to bring in up to 4’ Mbps clock & data signals into a platform-independent solution. The Frame Sync box can receive two independent data streams into a single system. Multiple units can then be daisy-chained together to allow for higher channel counts.

The size of the Frame Sync box allows it to be tossed in a backpack with a laptop for a flight line checkout. When combined with a portable computer or the SIRIUS DAQ system and SBOX this solution can provide telemetry data processing in the aircraft and provide the pilot with a visual display of the telemetry data in real-time. This gives the ultimate flexibility to the engineer to solve their mission requirements.

NASA telemetry

Check out the »Telemetry done right« video from NASA's Kennedy Space Center.

Image on the right shows the Record and Playback System (RPS) at the Kennedy Space Center. RPS group is now available to support commercial partnerships, consultations, new installations, new launch systems, and telemetry processing.

The entire system has been digitalized and backed up by Dewesoft telemetry system.
