Application of SCATS Based on ATML Standard in General Testing Equipment for Airborne Electronic Systems
SCATS is a domestic automatic testing program set development software for signals based on the latest AMTL stand-ard developed by Chengdu Spaceon T&C Technology Co.Ltd.The notable feature of the automated test markup language(ATML)standard is that the extensible markup language(XML)is adopted to achieve the standardized description and information exchange of testing information.The description document based on the ATML standard is established,it achieves the sharing and exchanges of the signal feature information,test results,test path,test strategy,fault diagnosis,thereby achieving the universal design of univer-sal testing equipment,It effectively overcomes the shortcomings of the signal-oriented test equipment and test program set develop-ment software,such as PAWS,this shortcomings include complex language form,few signal models,poor openness of software ar-chitecture,etc.The SCATS software adopts a pure Chinese development interface,with the test program set no code.The software interface is friendly and readable,greatly reducing the technical threshold for test program set developers.The built-in signal model is rich and can meet the testing needs of modern airborne electronic systems.The application shows that in the universal testing equip-ment for airborne electronic systems,the test program set for the airborne electronic systems developed by using SCATS software has the characteristics of fast development speed,accurate fault location,good universality and portability.
