The VAPS XT-178 Version 4.0.1 from Presagis is a safety-critical software package for creating embedded display graphics for avionics projects that are intended for RTCA DO-178 B certification. The object-oriented, XML-based human-machine interface (HMI) tool enables the user to create custom widgets, save them, and reuse them from project to project. VAPS XT-178 can be used to certify both ARINC 661 and non-ARINC 661 applications. The end user may use the documents and test cases provided with the product in order to obtain credit for the tool qualification as part of the total system certification.
VAPS XT-178 can be used for such applications as ARINC 661-compliant avionics, RTCA DO-178-compliant/certified avionics, unmanned aerial system (UAS) ground-station control graphics, and projects that require HMI tool and graphics driver pre-integration. The software also has qualifiable CODE nGEN (C++ code generator) and certifiable runtime libraries. The updated software tool – which runs in Windows 7 / Visual Studio 2010 development environment – has enhanced graphical canvas drawing for precise modeling and design; text improvements with multiline text object, haloing on vector fonts, and a text string pop-up editor; and upgraded CODE nGEN usability.
