A flexible telemetry processor for spacecraft testing
In the past, telemetry data systems in support of JPL flight projects were designed specifically for each mission. The Magellan System Test Data Processing Subsystem (STDPS) marks a departure from these past designs. For the first time, a reusable telemetry-processing subsystem has been designed that is flexible enough to meet the spacecraft-testing requirements of the present project, and can be easily changed for future projects as well. These changes are all accomplished through a user-friendly, menu-oriented interface. Extensive software reprogramming is no longer required.
