Figure 1: Real-time pen tip display with annotation and chart template Touch-panel interfaces are also used on the more advanced telemetry recorders. This type of interface replaces the traditional hardware knobs and buttons that have been the only user interface for many years. The latest recorder designs allow users to create the entire front panel. This is known as a customized control panel (figure 2), and gives the user complete flexibility over which controls are on the front panel. For example, a user with a simple application may need a few chart speed buttons and a recording start/stop button. A more advanced exercise may need to instantly access controls for signal adjustments, triggering, data capture and historical data review. These control panels can also be password protected for security purposes, which will prevent unauthorized modifications to an existing custom setup. Figure 2. A customizable control panel with user-defined controls During a flight test, an engineer watching a strip-chart will often write on the chart when a planned maneuver is performed, or if something unexpected happens. With a touch-panel interface, the engineer can simply touch the display at a specific point and add annotation to the data. This can be in the form of pre-
defined phrases or free-form text. A mark is placed at that point in time and the annotation is saved and printed with the waveform data. Touch-panel interfaces also allow for on-screen cursor measurements that can be activated by touching a specific data point. A large touch-panel is well suited for measurements such as timing, amplitude and frequency. A touch-panel interface also has the advantage of an environment that has the "touch and feel" of paper. A flight engineer could use a split-screen mode, for example, that allows for viewing of historical data without interrupting real-time recording. The portion of the screen with the historical data can be reviewed by touching and dragging, analogous to flipping through sheets of paper. The designs of these touch-panel interfaces are such that the engineer who may be familiar with using pen-based recorders will quickly become proficient with the new technologies. Large Capacity Storage Media The latest telemetry recorders have been designed with the ability to store large amounts of data to hard drives or other magnetic media. Flight test engineers are increasingly using strip-chart hardcopy output only when necessary and prefer to store data in a digital format more suited for analysis. The latest telemetry recorder designs utilize storage media that enables the user to save data independent of paper recording, while at the same time giving them the opportunity to play back data to paper later. One of the most recent data storage techniques utilizes a min/max algorithm to store line segments to a hard drive. This data is stored exactly as it would appear on a chart or display and at a rate to match the equivalent chart speed. The resultant record acts as a Virtual Chart and allows a user to run a test with or without real-time paper output and still create hard copy after the test. The chart output is identical to a chart created in real-time, showing any changes to signal conditioner settings, annotation, or chart speed. A key benefit of this technique is an efficient use of storage space. The Virtual Chart equivalent of a standard pack of chart paper requires only 276 MB of disk space, including IRIG timing and grid synchronization The resulting digitized data can be used for postmission review and analysis. Network Connectivity An increasingly important characteristic of telemetry recorders is their ability to communicate with other telemetry systems and sub-systems. The latest telemetry recorders utilize Ethernet (100BaseT or 10BaseT) for this communication. This interface offers a number of advantages such as high bandwidth, standard protocols, and inexpensive implementation. In addition to communication from a host system to a telemetry recorder, Ethernet also allows communication between telemetry recorders. By utilizing different ports and
