DDC adds data reconstruction functionality to its bus analyzer software

Data Device Corporation (DDC) has added the data reconstruction functionality to its dataSIMS bus analyzer software (version 4.1 and later).

Reconstruction (On-Line Replay) mode enables users to:
Replay, in real-time, MIL-STD-1553 and ARINC 429 recorded data onto the bus
Single-step through data streams to pinpoint problems, or run continuous for real-time simulation
Display data in a wide variety of user-friendly formats
Locate data of interest with advanced search capabilities
Easily generate engineering unit and raw data reports

The dataSIMS Bus Analysis and Simulation software package allows users to create a complete environment of simulation, acquisition, display, and storage of real-time data. dataSIMS simulates and concurrently monitors multiple mixed MIL-STD-1553 and ARINC 429 data streams, and has the ability to bring in any other I/O.

"dataSIMS' Reconstruction mode, combined with the advanced features offered by DDC's new multi-function AceXtreme cards, means that users can now create a complete test and simulation system, identifying, isolating, and resolving problems with extreme precision, saving time, effort, and cost", stated Sean Sleicher, DDC's Data Bus Marketing Manager.

Along with dataSIMS, data reconstruction functionality is now available in DDC's comprehensive line of MIL-STD-1553 and ARINC 429 data bus analysis software solutions:
BusTrACEr MIL-STD-1553 data bus analysis and monitor software (version 2.0 and later)
ARINC Commercial Avionics Utilities data bus analyzer and data loader software (version 5.0 and later)
LabVIEW MIL-STD-1553 and ARINC 429 development support package (version 2.1 and later)
