International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 30-November 02, 1989 / Town & Country Hotel & Convention Center, San Diego, California === The TDHS, designed and built for WSMR (White Sands Missile Range), is hosted by a Concurrent 3280 Processor. The TDHS software is a combination of new software designed specifically for this system and conversion of software that Fairchild Weston offers as standard products on other host computers. The system software is based on a menu system and provides a friendly user interface. The software supports the latest EMR products (including an 8715 Preprocessor and an 8470 Digital Discriminator), intercomputer data transfer and very high speed storage of data to disk and tape. TDHS also provides quick-look data display during real-time on strip charts and Concurrent based displays. Data processed by the Concurrent host can be sent back to the 8715 for distribution in the same manner as the incoming telemetry data. Immediately after data acquisition all data can be viewed on the color graphic and alphanumeric terminals.
