The
Micro Systems, Inc. Model 210 Data Link Transponder is an affordable yet
highly reliable device used to assist in tracking manned vehicles. The
transponder is mounted in a standard P-4 pod carried by aircraft requiring
range safety or weapons testing tracking functions. The system is compatible
with the Gulf Range Drone Control System (GRDCS). The transponder subsystems
are packaged into four "modules" to accommodate the unique packaging
requirements of the P-4 pod. The transponder incorporates the latest in
solid state electronics design. Software satisfies the requirements of
MIL-STD-2167A. An additional processor communicates with a NavStar XR5M-12
GPS receiver through three serial asynchronous data ports. The transponder
receives RTCM-104 differential corrections via uplink messages. The transponder
meets the requirements of MIL-STD-810 and will operate over the temperature
range of -54°C to +71° C.
