Alta Data Technologies’ ENET2-1553

Description

eNet2-1553™ is an innovative product that provides “remoting” of 1553 operations on 10/100/1000 Ethernet IP/UDP local area networks (LAN).  eNet2-1553 is a small, low-power, rugged device that provides real-time Ethernet connectivity to for two dual redundant 1553 (A/B) busses. Ideal for remoting 1553 connections for in-field applications or point-point lab usage.

Alta has combined the industry’s most advanced 32-bit 1553 FPGA protocol engine, AltaCore™, with a real-time IP/UDP thin server. The customer can implement their application with the same feature-rich application programming interface, AltaAPI™, as used with standard cards – often without even recompiling – the utlimate in code portability.

**NOTE: eNet2-1553 (server) is a real-time Ethernet/1553 device, but your computers’ (client) IP stack may not be! The eNet2-1553 device provides real-time UDP receive and transmit requests (<10 uSecs) to 1553 buffers, but the client’s IP/UDP stack will induce path delays as compared to backplane cards. For many applications (<100-2000 packets per second), this product will provide unparalleled flexibility in 1553 configurations (much better than USB devices). Contact Alta for test results on various OS and computer configurations – your system results may vary.

Software

AltaAPI
Alta’s 1553 and ARINC cards include the most advanced Application Programming Interface (API) library tools in the avionics industry, AltaAPI. The API architecture is a properly OSI modeled development package that provides an extremely flexible design to provide quick porting to various operating systems (such as VxWorks 5.X/6.X/7/MILS, Integrity, LynxOS RTOS), Linux 32- and 64-bit, Solaris 10, LabVIEW and 32- and 64-bit Windows 7/8/8.1/10.

AltaRTVal
AltaRTVal provides the most advanced MIL-STD-1553 COTS protocol validation tool in the industry, and helps prepare for Test Systems Inc Full SAE 4111 Validation. The software implements protocol tests for both the SAE AS4111 RT Validation Test Plan and the SAE AS4112 RT Production Test Plan. Ideal for testing new software revisions of current designs or manufacturing production units.

AltaView Bus Analyzer
Alta’s Windows avionics analyzer product, AltaView, provides the most modern technologies for MIL-STD-1553 and ARINC-429 network activity and data analysis.
