Abstract :
An Operational Level Tester was developed to assist in troubleshooting A-10 avionics. The Tester consists of the Portable Automated Test Station and the Operational Test Program (OTP). The OTP provides system level troubleshooting of the Line Replaceable Units connected to the MIL-STD-1553B avionics bus. The OTP software provides the maintainer the capability to perform noninvasive troubleshooting through the use of user friendly graphical user interfaces. This paper describes the features and benefits of the OTP
