- Description
- NASA/KSC has a requirement for eight PCI Shuttle Databus Interface Cards. The technical requirements are listed below: 1. Card format shall be PCI. 2. There shall be 2 independent shuttle data bus transmit/receive interfaces per card. 3. There shall be IRIG time synchronization, time tags that provide 1 microsecond resolution for command/data words. 4. Shall Include: c function drivers, with examples and documentation of each function. All functions shall be compatible with the Borland Turbo C++ Suite compiler. 5. Each interface shall act as a bus controller, remote terminal, or a monitor. The host pc shall be able to access (read/write) to the data bus card at any time. The monitor shall be able to work in parallel with bus controller or remote terminal mode. All Manchester error bits shall be available. 6. Bus Controller Mode: The bus controller can be configured to either transmit single messages or scheduled messages. A single message is a transmitted single command word followed by 0 to 512 transmitted command data words, or a transmitted single command word followed by up to 512 response data words. The host pc program shall define the single message. For scheduled messages, the host pc program shall load the data bus card with a group of messages to be transmitted with variable time (5 microseconds to 100 millisecond) gaps. Messages are as defined above. In single message mode or scheduled message mode, the message can be sent a user defined number of times or cyclically. 7. Remote Terminal Mode: The remote terminal can be configured to capture any command or command data word from the shuttle data bus. It will use a filter consisting of a zero, one or don?t care to test the sync and each bit of each incoming word. Once a word is captured, the RT may respond with data to transmit, store data received (up to 131,072 command data words per message) or do nothing. The host pc program will set up the criteria. The RT needs to be able to filter for and respond, up to 16 different words captured from the shuttle data bus. The filters for the 16 words to be captured are set from the host pc. The host pc program will set the response for each of the 16 words. 8. Monitor Mode: When monitoring, only those received words that pass a software configurable filter will be saved in the monitor buffer. The filter consists of a zero, one, or don?t care for the sync and each bit of a word. When the filter is set for all don?t cares, all received data is saved to the monitor buffer along with other information, including the time tag, sync, error flags, and a bus designator. 9. In all modes, on board memory is used as a buffer to continuously download to the host computer for storage to disk. Captured data would only be limited by space on the disk drive. 10. Documentation shall be provided for card installation into the PC and connection to the Shuttle data bus. The cards are to be delivered FOB Destination to NASA, Kennedy Space Center, Florida.
