ASHBURN, Va., 4 Oct. 2012. Curtiss-Wright Controls Defense Solutions in Ashburn, Va., is introducing a multi channel synchronized digital data recorder for demanding defense and aerospace applications such as instrumentation recording, mission recording, signals intelligence (SIGINT) and electronic intelligence (ELINT).
The Vortex multi-channel synchronized recorder is a turn-key streaming data recorder system that uses time stamping to deliver synchronized playback of several I/O channels.
Vortex records in various protocols such as serial FPDP, Gigabit Ethernet, and 10-Gigabit Ethernet. The Vortex also enables the synchronous starting and stopping of all data channels simultaneously and provides time alignment between each at playback.
The scalable system has off-the-shelf 1U controllers with internal rotating or solid-state removable data storage in rugged and laboratory environments.
