Enhanced data-acquisition equipment complies with IRIG106 chapter 10

Heim Data Systems Inc. in Belmar, N.J., is offering a version of the D5000 series for applications requiring compatibility with the IRIG106 Chapter10 standard, which defines the data formatting, control interfaces, and media directories of airborne data acquisition systems such as flight test recorders. Designed to be compact, lightweight, and rugged, the single-box D5000 series systems are for PCM telemetry, avionics bus, and sensor data acquisition in applications requiring compliance. With modular signal interfacing and interchangeable media cartridges, the D5000 series provides flexible COTS solutions that adapt to airborne applications. With as much as 256-megabits-per-second total system data rate, and available with hard drive or solid-state media, the cartridges have front-mounted IEEE-1394b interfaces for rapid post mission verification and download of data. These interfaces allow direct connection between the media cartridge and local or remote ground support equipment, with or without removing the cartridge from the D5000 system.
