This notice is being issued as a Request for Quotations (RFQ) for the following: 1. Ground Station System Recorder Quantity: 2 each Specification is as follows: Basic Functions: Data aggregate rate up to 1.6 Gbit/s playback and record. IRIG 106 Chapter 10 compliant. The system will have standard record and replay functions. The system will be a one box solution, integrating control, signal interfacing and media. The system will have a scalable architecture. All housings are mountable in 19? racks and on slides. The system will be controlled and accessed via Ethernet and front panel. Operating Modes: Data Types FM and PCM. All Input signals will be recorded in a CH 10 compliant, single file. The recorder will allow assignments of logical channels to physical channels i.e. it will playback and reconstruct recordings that have more channels than the playback unit physically contains. The recorder will support play from selected time and to selected time using the IRIG B time from a selected recorded session The recorder will support file copying between all device types that it supports. During data migration, the recorder will be capable of splitting individual recordings over multiple media (e.g. multiple CDs, DVDs, USB drives etc.) and in to multiple files. The recorder will import data split on to more than one media or file, reconstruct and process it seamlessly on play back. The system will support parallel record and replay. The system will support of shuttle playback between user selected end points. The recorder will tag recorded data with sequential data address and/or block number identification from the beginning to the end of the record session. The recorder will support play from and play to specific times or block numbers. The recorder will support loop or shuttle play operation using specific times or block numbers as start and stop points. Remote and Data Interfaces: The recorder will provide local and remote control. All of the control interfaces will indicate current hardware channel configuration. All of the control interfaces will indicate and configure individual channel and overall programmed aggregate data rate as well as all other software configurable interface options. All of the control interfaces will continuously indicate and update remaining record time, space left available on disk, and current packet or block. All of the control interfaces will report fault indication and assist in fault isolation. Channel status and overall system information and status. Time: Time data correlation will be to 100ns resolution. Data Format File System: Supports only IRIG 106 Chapter 10 The file system used to write data will be Windows based Different record sessions will have different <name> fields. The file creation date and time will reflect recorded IRIG B time and will be maintained during data migration to other media. The recorder will support playback of other IRIG106 Chapter 10 files. Enabling and disabling of channels for each of the 4 target recording devices most be possible. Other functions: The GSS will also support the following functions: Event setting Text Annotation Operate as a virtual endless loop continuously overwriting earlier passages of recorded data. Automatic backup function Integrated build in test and fault detection: The recorder will be capable of saving recording setups for future use and allow the user to assign file names to these setups. Data Channels: Digital Input/Output: The system must have at least eight channels that can record or replay at 30 Mbits/s PCM. Analog Input/Output: The system must have a least 4 channels that can record or replay at 10 MHz. Voice/IRIG B Input/Output: The system must have a least 6 channels that can record or replay a 200 kilo-samples per second for voice or IRIG-B recording.
