eZ Software Suite
Sitting alongside Safran Data Systems' flight test acquisition and telemetry hardware, eZ Software Suite is a companion tool for setup, viewing, operation monitoring and signal processing. It is aimed at simplifying and reducing the work of the flight test instrumentation engineers and fulfilling the needs of development, verification and validation.
eZ SetUp - the test instrumentation configuration software
The eZ SetUp software allows to configure from a single acquisition unit to a complete acquisition system within a network architecture:
- Definition of individual equipment (acquisition unit, recorders, switches, workstations, cameras) compatible with: XMA, MDR, MDR-GT, GMDR plus the μMA and μDR when available
- Definition of network connections
- Data acquisition (sensors and digital bus) defined at high and low level, with import function
- Manual or automatic generation of output streams: PCM IRIG-106 Ch4, IRIG-106 Ch10, IRIG-106 Ch7, IENA or DAR
- Setting up the complete system
- Real-time control of the health of each component of the solution down to measurement channel status
- Real-time overview of acquired data (quicklook)
- Recording of raw data.
eZ Processing - data display and processing software (formerly Advantys)
The eZ Processing software offers advanced functions for data display and processing:
- Real-time visualization of raw or processed parameters, on board or on the ground, in a user configurable graphical format
- Data replay with customized visualizations - Extraction of parameters in real time (or from a records) and conversion into physical values with (or without) the application of a calibration function
- Generation of processed parameters by creating user functions in C language
- Generation of configurable user alarms on parameter value limits
- Recording of raw or processed data for further replay
- Automatic import of conversion tables by eZ SetUp software, the user can then focus on data analysis without risk of error
eZ Operation - an on-board instrumentation management & control software
The eZ Operation software is an advanced tool for centralized supervision and control of complex test systems from an onboard operator station:
- Optimized set up of complex networks, acquisition units, recorders and switches
- Real-time supervision through a synoptic view of the system: supervision of each acquisition unit, recorder, switch, as well as through the network
- Main system commands on the same screen
- Synthesis of supervision data: generation of report files including the alarms and events reported, as well as the status of each equipment
- Real-time preview of the complete list of acquisitions (analog and digital)
- Centralized system monitoring
