66 -- DATA ACQUISITION SYSTEM SOL N68936-98-R-0082 POC Derrick Hu, Contract Specialist, (760) 939-9655 The Naval Air Warfare Center, Weapons Division, China Lake, CA intends to procure on a competitive basis one (1) Data Acquisition System (DAS) using FAR Part 12, commercial items procedures. The Data Acquisition System (DAS) consists of six portable data recorders, each capable of digitizing, recording, displaying and analyzing multiple channels of analog and digital data. Each data recorder shall consist of plug-in data modules that allow the recorder to be configured for high or medium speed operation (as defined below), or a combination of both. Each recorder must be capable of stand-alone, independent operation. Multiple recorders must be capable of operating together as a single system controlled by a single recorder. This system will be used to acquire data from live fire testing of modern aircraft and weapons systems. These are destructive tests of very high cost prototype hardware. The data acquisition system used for these tests must be extremely reliable and versatile. This testing is conducted at multiple test sites and the DAS recorders will be transported frequently. Each recorder must therefore be housed in a single, rugged enclosure to minimize subsystem cabling and maximize reliability. The recorders that comprise this system will, at various times, be used individually or in groups. Except for the high and medium speed module performance differences described below, they must be functionally identical so that any single recorder could replace any other recorder or be used in a group that is controlled by any single recorder. To define the minimum requirements, a specific data recorder and data module architecture has been defined. The actual architecture may be different, as long as all functional requirements of this document are met. The assumed architecture is: Data recorders capable of holding 4 data modules. Medium speed data modules containing 8 analog input channels, 8 digital input channels, 1 counter/timer channel, timebase, trigger circuitry and hard disk data memory. High speed data modules containing 4 analog input channels, timebase, trigger circuitry, hard disk data memory and transient data memory. The system shall consist of 6 data recorders. Total system capability shall include: 16 medium speed data modules providing a total of 128 medium speed analog input data channels, and 8 high speed data modules providing a total of 32 high speed analog input data channels. Requests for a copy of the solicitation should be submitted in writing to Commander, Code 210000D, Naval Air Warfare Center, Weapons Division, Attn: Derrick Hu, N68936-98-R-0082, China Lake, CA 93555-6100 or by facsimile to (760) 939-9651 no later than 15 days from the date of this synopsis. Address any questions to Derrick Hu at the above address or call (760) 939-9655. (0090)
