A SOFTWARE APPROACH TO MARS-II DIGITALLY RECORDED TELEMETRY

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 30-November 02, 1995 / Riviera Hotel, Las Vegas, Nevada / The MARS-II digital recorder is one of the new technologies that will eventually
replace the labor intensive and hardware dependent methods associated with
traditional analog-based telemetry ground systems. The Standardized MARS-II
Analysis and Reduction Tool (SMART) is one of the first software systems
developed to take advantage of this new digital recording capability. It
processes pulse code modulated (PCM) encoded data and MIL-STD-1553B
message traffic, outputting time-tagged PCM frames or 1553 messages to file.
The goal of this software is to provide a portable application that utilizes state-ofhe-art, general purpose hardware for rapid telemetry data processing to meet
the needs of operational users, telemetry engineers, and data analysts. To
satisfy these goals, the software was developed using the C language with VMS
and OSF operating systems as the initially targeted platforms. In addition, an X
Window System/Motif graphical user interface supporting three tiers of user
interaction (operator, telemetry engineer, and telemetry analyst) was layered
onto the decommutator functions.
