Transfer Data from hard disk ( local or remote disk, DVD±R, DVD-RAM ) to or from Tape For each standard PC or laptop connected to the network: Real-time Control by Ethernet one or more recorders on network as if you were in front of yours recorders: Start/Stop Record and Play, Real-time Signal display, view status of recorders Real-time Remote views of signal and status recorder Configure real-time local display For all standards PC: Use Playback tools Emulation of real time playback Analogical channels: sample frequency, AC/DC, input range Video channel: compression rate, PAL/NTSC, number of images per second PCM channels: bit-frequency, coding (NRZL, RNRZL, biphase-l,... ) IRIG channel et PHONE channel Strain gauges inputs ( power voltage, type of sensor), Page 49

53 ICP channels CALIBRATION OF ANALOGICAL OUTPUTS By using a signals calibrated generator and a calibrated multi meter, it is possible to calibrate all the analogical channels: measure gain and offset of all ranges of analogical inputs channel. Results of calibration are stored on DTMUX records (Calibration DTMUX Block). Page 50

54 ANNEXES Master / slave configuration D.T MUX airborne recorders units can work in distributed system architecture for system performance improvement (reduced distance from sensor to acquisition board). Single point programming to the master unit Master Unit Ethernet link and date synchro time. Network switch Ethernet links Data input output Slave Unit Slave Unit Slave Unit Slave Unit Data input output Data bus (Ethernet 1000B.T, IEEE 1588) and time synchronization ensuring that the acquisition cycles of all remote units start simultaneously than the master unit use a unique cable.
