Airborne data acquisition and recording system is a direct replacement for legacy video and data recorders Nov 16, 2004 4:03 PM
Heim Data Systems new D7000 airborne data acquisition and recording system is equipped with adaptable signal interfacing and interchangeable media cartridges. It provides a flexible avionics data acquisition and recording platform in a compact package. With a rugged mechanical design for harsh environments, the external dimensions and configurable connector interfaces of the D7000 are designed so that it is a direct replacement for legacy video and data recorders. With a total system data rate of up to 256 Mb/s, this recording/reproducing system employs media contained in interchangeable cartridges, enabling the user to quickly choose and load either rugged hard drive or solid-state media at any time during the life of the equipment. The packet recording capability ensures accurate data time tagging and consistent channel-to-channel phase relationships. The system is compatible with Heim Data format and the IRIG106, Chapter 10 standard, including a compliant IEEE-1394b data download interface on the media cartridge. The D7000 mainframe also has GigE data download capability. The media SCSI interface provides a high-speed output to other Heim data download and analog replay systems that are fitted with media cartridge receivers. Complete with an integral IRIG time-code generator, the D7000 series can also synchronize to external IRIG and GPS time sources to provide sustained high accuracy time tagging of recorded data. As an option the D7000 can be fitted with an integral GPS receiver, integrating time reception, distribution and data time tagging--all in a single enclosure. The media cartridge can also be equipped with an integrated clock that allows laboratory-based time references to be transferred automatically to the recorder, each time a cartridge is loaded. The mainframe holds up to four signal interface cards in any combination, providing a wide selection of interfacing, including concurrent recording of video, PCM and MIL-STD-1553 bus sources in a single unit. The user retains permanent access to configuration and control functions through front panel controls, backed up by remote control available through integral serial, network and discrete contact interfaces. The D7000 military-style connectors are front mounted and can be supplied in a generic configuration or with specific custom connector types and pin-outs.
