An Ethernet-based MIL-STD-1553 test and simulation product from AIM, the ANET1553-x, can be controlled over an Ethernet LAN for analyzing, simulating, monitoring, and protocol testing of single- or dual-stream MIL-STD-1553 A/B data buses. The onboard application support processor (ASP) is based on a system-on-chip (SoC) hardware solution running under an embedded Linux OS. The ANET1553-x uses the ASP to execute the AIM Network Server for all customer applications and interfaces with the standard application programming interface (API) common to MIL-STD-1553 interfaces. During the initialization, the API needs to be given the IP address for the ANET15530x simply as an additional parameter.
Software support is included with the ANET1553-x modules, as are board-software packages for Windows and Linux operating systems. The ANET1553-x can act as bus controller, multiple remote terminals (31), and chronological/mailbox bus monitor. All modules have the built-in capability to handle eight general-purpose discrete I/O signals and also offer trigger-I/O and synchronization to external IRIG-B via an APU1443-x pin-compatible D-sub connector. A full range of MIL-STD-1553 protocol errors can be injected and detected; in addition, the modules can also electrically reconstruct and replay previously recorded MIL-STD-1553A/B record files physically to the MIL-STD-1553A/B bus with accurate timing.
