Overview:
|
|
|
|
The ATS-ISA-1553 provides a
flexible, single function dual redundant MIL-STD-1553B interface on the PC/AT
bus (ISA) form factor. It provides the highest level of performance and
flexibility for MIL-STD-1553B functionality. The ATS-ISA-1553 offers Simulation
and Monitoring functions. The card comes integrated with a powerful software
that reduces application development time. All databus functionality is
supported by our advanced API (Application Programming Interface) & VIP
(Virtual Instrument Panel). |

Hardware:
The ATS-ISA-1553 is available with BU61688 DDC controller.
It is ideally suited to work on a desktop PC/AT. The card’s single
function architecture emulates a Bus Controller or 31 Remote Terminals or Bus
Monitor or RT/MT modes. Polling and interrupt generation are also
provided. A 62-pin connector is
provided for I/O connectivity.

The ATS-ISA-1553
software includes:
· Virtual Instrument Panels
· Drivers & APIs

Virtual
Instrument Panel
The ATS-ISA-1553 card comes with a “Virtual
Instrument Panel” providing interactive control of all MIL-STD-1553B
features. The control interface appears on the computer display & user
manipulates these controls with a mouse/trackball or keyboard. The purpose of
Virtual Instrument panel is to help the user (mostly system integrators) to
quickly setup & use the card, just like a stand-alone instrument with
physical front-end knobs, controls & display without getting into
programming intricacies.
Drivers & APIs
The ATS-ISA-1553 card comes with a powerful set of library functions
to access the entire MIL-STD-1553B functionality. The drivers are designed in
a modular fashion consisting of component functions & application
functions. The user’s test program can be developed with a few calls to
the card driver, by using the set of application functions provided.
Drivers and high-level API libraries for
LabWindows/CVI, Windows 98/2000, Linux, RT/Linux, DOS are available
