58 -- RECORD AND PLAYBACK SUBSYSTEM SOL RFQ RB95-076 DUE 050395 POC Robert Bohacs, Mail Code: LSO-360, Kennedy Space Center, FL 32899. Lockheed Space Operations Company (LSOC), a NASA prime contractor at Kennedy Space Center (KSC), FL, has a requirement for firms capable of supplying RPS Survivability Project with the following subsystems: 14 PCM telemetry decommutators, 2 FM digitizers, and 12 digital to analog converters with infrared touch screen interfaces. Each subsystem is to be a standalone VME chassis with reflective memory technology for inter-chassis data transfers, and RS-232, Ethernet, and SCSI-1 interfaces. The RPS Survivability project shall use the VxWorks Real Time Operating System. Telemetry data rates are not greater than 5 Mbps and 1 Mhz. Hardware and software are to be integrated and tested by the vendor to an LSOC-provided specification. RPS provide the classical ground telemetry station support functions for the STS (Shuttle) at KSC. Functions include: analog recording and playback of raw unprocessed data from all PCM and FM data links, selected OIS voice channels, and range timing for post-test analysis and troubleshooting, near realtime retrieval of recorded data, evaluation of PCM and FM signal parameters, processing and displaying selected data, and re-transmission of data to other areas and equipment for real time and past test data reduction. General environmental requirements include storage between 0 and 60 degrees Centigrade. Operating ranges to be 10 to 40 degrees Centigrade. Relative humidity to be 10% to 80% non-condensing. Indications of interest should be forwarded to reach LSOC no later than 033095, and should specify RFQ No. RB95-076. Request should also indicate size and classification of your firm.
