Abstract

The support equipment data acquisition and control system (SEDACS) was developed to allow a prime contractor to control the development of test requirement documents (TRD) and associated ATLAS programs for the suite of avionics residing on an aircraft. The system allows multiple avionics manufacturers to supply data for the test program set (TPS) to SEDACS directly from facilities located in various sites in the nation. It utilizes a menu-driven interface, forms data entry, relational data storage, proprietary data protection, a sophisticated full-screen editor for test program development, and electronic transfer of source and object to the automatic test equipment (ATE) for execution. SEDACS integrates all these functions for complete configuration control and management by the prime contractor. A further overview of SEDACS is given
