ALTAIR Chapter 7 Licensed feature for the Ulyssix implementation of the IRIG106 Chapter 7 packet telemetry standard. ALTAIR extracts Chapter 10 streams from a PCM Chapter 7 telemetry stream. The Chapter 10 stream can be saved a file, transmitted via UDP, or decommutated and displayed in ALTAIR. ALTAIR can import the Chapter 10 stream configuration from a TMATS file, or the user can enter the configuration via a GUI. ALTAIR can filter the packets in Chapter 10 stream before saving to a file or transmitting via UDP. Filtering has many uses including: Reducing the Chapter 10 bandwidth for UDP transfer Only saving the packets required for data analysis ALTAIR includes a Chapter 7 Monitor that tracks the packets in the Chapter 7 stream as well as the embedded Chapter 10 stream. This tool helps troubleshoot issues with the Chapter 7 stream and the ALTAIR configuration.

ALTAIR Async Embedded ALTAIR supports processing up to sixteen Asynchronous Embedded streams per incoming PCM telemetry stream. The parent frame for an Asynchronous Embedded stream can be either the Main Telemetry Frame or another Asynchronous Embedded stream. ALTAIR does not limit the levels of Asynchronous Embedded streams inside of Asynchronous Embedded streams. ​ Each Asynchronous Embedded stream has its own Frame Synchronizer and Decom. The data from the embedded stream occupies a fixed number and location of decom words per minor frame in the parent telemetry frame. The Asynchronous Embedded stream can be in any combination of word locations in the parent telemetry frame.
