Interface
Simulator (IS)
-
The MIDS interface
simulator (MIS) is the primary integration tool
used by European platform integrators. It is a
mature design with more than
thirty systems deployed.
-
The MIS is capable of
generating and evaluating
scenarios in either of two operational modes.
-
In terminal
simulation mode, the MIS operates the operational
flight program hosted on
commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware. The MIS may
also host these programs on MIDS SRUs (flight
hardware).
-
In network
simulation mode, the commercial hardware operates
as a host platform while
providing for the mounting, cooling and power provisions
of a MIDS terminal.
-
Whatever mode of operation
is selected, the testing
effort will be maximized as a result of the integration
of the MIS and the operational
flight hardware and software.
