The February 27, 2004 demonstration follows up on presentations given at the Engineering Model 2 Review, at which the FSW team presents designs for several major software functions.

Demonstration Agenda

• TKR and CAL Demos

• LCB Package Test Demo

• Watchdog Function Demo (NOTE: The Watchdog demo is rescheduled for March 2004)

Goals of the Demonstrations

The demonstrations have the following goals:

• The TKR and CAL Demonstrations show that the DEM software package, used to configure and capture event data from these LAT subsystems, is complete and operational. The software successfully writes and reads registers on a Tower Electronics Module (TEM). It can also be used to instruct the TEM to turn off selected TKR and CAL contributions to event data sets.

• The LCB Package Test Demonstration shows that the LCB software package runs on a CPU crate and interrogates the PCI hardware of a LAT Communications Board in that crate. This demo also shows that test scripts for the LCB package have been written and execute successfully on the LAT Flight Software Test Executive (LTX) system.

• The Watchdog Function Demonstration shows that a proof-of-concept design for the software Watchdog is complete, and a test implementation of this design runs on a RAD750 processor.
