System Overview

This document is the Test Plan for the upgrade of the Data Acquisition and Data Processing
systems of the Indonesian Low Speed Tunnel (ILST) of the Aero-Gas Dynamics and Vibration
Laboratory (LAGG).
The ILST is in operation since 1988 and has been developed within a framework of bilateral
technological cooperation between the governments of Republic Indonesia, represented by the
Agency for Assessment and Application of Technology (BPPT), and the Netherlands,
represented by the National Aerospace Laboratory NLR.
The mentioned systems, actually consisting of the Data Acquisition & Reduction System
(DARS), the Calibration System and the Data Processing System (DPS), have been developed
by NLR and are already in service for more than 25 years. The last years however obsolescence
problems with the used HP 1000 and HP 9000 computers have become a major issue.
Besides this, the on-going development at NLR of the Conditioning Units (the main
instrumentation units at the ILST) has resulted in a huge increase of its capabilities, in particular
the replacement of the proprietary Data Acquisition Systems bus by standard Ethernet.
The replacement of the current HP computers by robust personal computers with Linux
operating system and the related transition to Ethernet as the standard communication bus for
wind tunnel instrumentation constitutes a major upgrade of the ILST Data Acquisition and Data
Processing systems.

NLR-CR-2013-308-Issue-1.1

The major objective of the Upgrade of the ILST Data Acquisition and Data Processing systems
is the replacement of the aging equipment for modern PC-based equipment, with the aim to
preserve the current functionality.
This objective will be achieved by the development of new interfaces for the existing
Conditioning units and associated equipment (PLC systems, Subscanner Controllers, etc.) and
the application of modern PC-based computer systems, with the Linux operating system. As
part of the project is identified the update of the existing software configuration items DA
software in the DARS host computer and the DP software in the DPS host computers.
During the project the hardware modifications as well as dedicated NLR furnished equipment
will be checked for its correct functioning during the development and manufacturing phase of
the project. As part of the overall check of the integrated functionality of the ILST Data
Acquisition and Data Processing systems a dedicated check process will be performed. This
process is described in this Test Plan. Since the emphasis of the functionality check is on the
software as the typical realization of the functionality (although the involved hardware is
checked implicitly) the test plan is based on Software Test Plan practices.
It must be noted that the formal check of the ILST upgrade as described in this document will
be performed in three dedicated areas:
1. the general user requirements, which are defined in the ILST upgrade proposal;
2. the data acquisition software as operational on the DARS host, which is effectively the
core functionality of the acquisition process;
3. the data processing software as operational on the DPS host, which is the core
functionality of processing raw data files.
The execution of the Final Acceptance tests as described in this document are projected to take
place at NLR in the Netherlands, before final delivery of the software (V2) for DARS and DPS
to the user/customer. The test results of the Final Acceptance tests will be documented in a Final
Acceptance Test Result report, see Ref. [5].
The tests or demonstrations to be accomplished at ILST in Indonesia will need to be defined at a
later date.

Formal Qualification Test Identification

4.1 General Test Requirements


4.1.1 User Requirements
The objective of verification of the user requirements is to evaluate compliance with the
applicable requirements as documented in Ref [2].
The criteria for verification/test case definition are:

Coverage of all user requirements as stated in Ref [2] and Appendix A of this
document.

4.1.2 DARS software


The objective of testing the DARS software is to evaluate compliance and robustness with the
applicable DARS requirements as documented in Ref [2] and Appendix B.
The criteria for test case definition are:

Testing of complete functional chains between DARS I/O involving the DARS-SW
CSCI.

Focus on interfacing between DARS-SW CSCI and other CSCIs.

Verification of DARS-SW timing aspects.

Coverage of all DARS-SW system requirements as stated in Ref [2] and Appendix B of
this document.

4.1.3 DPS software


The objective of testing the DPS software is to evaluate compliance and robustness with the
applicable DPS requirements as documented in Ref [2] and Appendix C.
The criteria for test case definition are:

Testing of complete functional chains between DPS I/O involving the DPS-SW CSCI.

Coverage of all DPS-SW-system requirements as stated in Ref [2] and Appendix C of


this document.

4.2 Test Classes


The following test classes are identified:
1. Performance tests: Test cases shall be designed to show that the performance of the
DARS and DPS CSCIs is according to the requirements as stated in Ref [2].

17

NLR-CR-2013-308-Issue-1.1

2. Functional tests: Test cases shall be designed to show that the behaviour of the system
is according to the specified or designed behaviour, as defined by either high-level
requirements or low-level (software) requirements.
3. Robustness tests: Existing test cases shall be enhanced and further test cases shall be
designed to determine the extent to which the software continues to operate correctly
despite invalid inputs. The purpose is to show that the software does not do anything
that it is not specified to do. This step depends primarily on error guessing, relying upon
the experience of the test designer to anticipate problem areas.
4. Configuration tests: The DARS software can be configured by means of a dedicated
configuration file. Test cases will be defined to check the behaviour of DARS with
different configuration files.
5. Hardware/software tests: Tests shall be performed to verify that the software is
compatible with the target hardware.
4.3 Test Levels
The following three test levels are identified:
1. CSU/CSC level. Applicable test classes: 2,3,5
2. CSC integration level. Applicable test classes: 1,2,3,5
3. CSCI/CSCI validation level. Applicable test classes: 1,2,3,4,5
The test levels are described below.
4.3.1 CSU/CSC level
Not applicable.
4.3.2 CSC integration level
The purpose of (integration) testing of an integrated CSC is to load its executable object code in
to the target environment and to verify that the CSC correctly fulfils its functionalities. The
approach for the ILST-project is to load a complete CSCI executable and to test it on its merits,
using a host computer environment due to unavailability of the target computer(s).
For each integrated CSC of the ILST-project, verifications are performed on the following
points:

validation of high-level requirements that are to be qualified on the integration testing


level and allocated to one or more specific CSCs. These requirements typically refer to:
o

meeting of performances and constraints, interfaces with the hardware,

detection and processing of hardware failures, and

possible violations of software partitioning (if applicable).

18

NLR-CR-2013-308-Issue-1.1

sequencing of the elements issued from the CSC architecture,

interface between software functionalities (CSCs), and

possible incorrect initialization of variables and constants.

4.3.3 CSCI/CSCI validation level


4.3.3.1 ILST system level - User Requirements
The purpose of this level of testing is to validate that the ILST CSCI is compliant to the user
requirements as specified in Ref. [2] and in Ref. [4].
This level of verification consists of validation of the various system parts and conformance to
the ICD, to verify compliance with the high-level requirements as specified in Ref. [2] and Ref.
[4]. In most of the cases there is no need for an actual test: DARS and DPS related requirements
will be verified as part of these CSCI tests (see sections 4.3.3.2 and 4.3.3.3 of this document).
4.3.3.2 DARS CSCI
The purpose of this level of testing is to validate that the DARS CSCI is compliant and robust to
the software requirements as specified in Ref. [2] and the dedicated DARS software
requirements as specified in Appendix B of this document. Preferably these tests would be
executed on the actual target hardware, but this is not possible for the ILST project due to early
delivery of the actual target hardware. The CSCI level tests will therefore be mainly executed on
the ILST simulation environment at NLR.
This level of testing consists of a black box test of the software by simulation of the operational
inputs to verify compliance with the high-level requirements as specified in Ref. [2]. Test cases
may be derived using the same techniques as for testing on CSC integration level, using the
high-level requirements as reference.
During the verification program of the DA CSCI, a DARS test system will be used. This test
system will have the capability of simulating a number of outputs of Conditioning Unit (CU)
equipment and be able to collect also the output of the DARS. The output of the DARS can be
analysed and be verified for the correctness of the response. The system is able to perform
DARS functional and performance tests under manual control. Figure 2 shows a block diagram
of the system.

19

NLR-CR-2013-308-Issue-1.1

Figure 2. DARS test system setup

The DARS test system uses a COTS PC, executing Linux with at least the following interface
adapters:
- Ethernet I/O.
4.3.3.3 DPS CSCI
The purpose of this level of testing is to validate that the DPS CSCI running on the actual target
is compliant and robust to the software requirements as specified in Ref. [2] and the dedicated
DPS software requirements as specified in Appendix C of this document.
This level of testing consists of a black box test of the software by simulation of the operational
inputs to verify compliance with the high-level requirements of the SRS/IRS documents. Test
cases may be derived using the same techniques as for testing on CSC integration level, using
the high-level requirements as reference.
During the verification program of the DPS CSCI, archived raw data files and processed data
files from the ILST will be used. With these files the processing of the original, archived files
can be repeated with the DPS CSCI on a host PC. The archived processed data can be compared
with the output of the DPS CSCI, to conclude the correct functioning of the DPS CSCI. This
setup will be used to perform DPS functional and performance tests under manual control.
Figure 3 shows a block diagram of the system.

4.4 Test Definitions
The tests planned for DARS-SW and DPS-SW are described in the following sections. In this
section only a summary of the objective(s) and the methods used will be documented. The
verifications/tests will be further detailed into test cases and procedures, but not documented in
this test plan.
4.4.1 DARS-SW
Objective

The objective of this test is to verify that DARS produces the correct output data, based on the
input of, among others, CU generated data and user commands. The data is specified in Ref. [4]
and Ref. [6].
Requirements

DARS (derived) requirements verification matrix, see Appendix B.

DARS software requirements. The methods available are: demonstration/test, analysis, and
inspection.
4.4.2 DPS-SW
Objective

The objective of this test is to verify that DPS produces the correct output data (format: file).
The correct data is specified in Ref. [4] and Ref. [7].
Requirements

DPS (derived) requirements verification matrix, see Appendix C.


Test Level

CSCI/CSCI validation level


Test Class

Applicable test classes: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5


Qualification Method

Any of the available qualification methods can be used in the process of verification of the DPS
software requirements. The methods available are: demonstration/test, analysis, and inspection.
4.4.3

Regression Testing

The objective of regression testing is to check the integrity of the system after a (software)
modification. Regression testing is not foreseen for the ILST software items 1.

The testing of the DPS software in itself can be seen as a large regression test, since the DPS software has been adapted for use
on a PC with Linux-based operating system software. The tests are based on comparison of the test results of the old and new
versions of the DPS software, typically a regression mechanism.

22

NLR-CR-2013-308-Issue-1.1

5 Data recording, reduction, and analysis


The test results will be recorded into test log files and are analysed by the relevant test tool or
the user to perform comparison with the specified expected test results.
The resulting test result files are analysed manually to check on the pass or fail of any test. All
test result files will be stored and either included or referenced in the Software Test Report. All
test results will be placed under configuration management.

Description
Except for the wireless
devices, these computers will
also be equipped with dual
monitor outputs, in order to
allow connecting additional
GUI screens in the future.
The main DA-DP network
consists of six Host
computers:
The Data Acquisition &
Reduction System Host
(DARS Host) for control of all
measurement activities of
the Wind Tunnel Data
Acquisition (D/A) System;
The Calibration System Host
for all sensor calibration
purposes;
Two Data Processing System
Hosts (DPS Host) for all
online data processing tasks;
Two General-Purpose Data
Processing System Hosts
(DPS-GP Host) for all preprocessing and postprocessing tasks.
Data from the Host
computers is stored on a
dedicated Data Server with
RAID (Redundant Array of
Independent Disks).
To prevent a possible loss of
data during the execution of
a wind tunnel test, the
relevant measurement data
will initially be stored locally
on the respective Host
computers.
After completion of a run the
data will automatically be
transferred to the Data
Server.
The following GUI devices
are foreseen on the following
locations:
Two (extendable to four) GUI
devices for real-time wind
tunnel parameter data and
text (wall and desk);
Four (extendable to eight)
GUI devices for plots and
graphics (wall);
One Operator GUI device for
control and manual input of
parameters (desk);
Instrumentation Room: One
GUI device;
Customer Room: One GUI
device;
Test Section Hall: Two
wireless portable GUI
devices.

NLR will propose a video
matrix system to LAGG after
further discussion on the
detailed specifications, such
as the required type of
cameras and interface
requirements, pan & tilt
possibilities, audio
possibilities, etc.
Foreseen is the use of an
8x16 or 16x16 matrix switch.
A total of four printers are
connected to the DA-DP
network and its subnets:
A line printer to print raw
data in engineering units
from the DARS Host;
A line printer to print
calibrated data and
calculation results from the
DPS Hosts;
A colour laser printer for
general printing purposes;
A colour laser printer for the
Calibration D/A System
subnet.
A firewall between the DADP network and Internet is
installed to allow remote
support (for maintenance,
software upgrades, etc.) by
external parties, such as NLR.
The network includes two
dedicated subnets for data
acquisition; the DARS Host
and the Calibration System
Host each control the
networks for the Wind
Tunnel D/A System and the
Calibration D/A System
respectively.
For the control of the two
Subscanner Controllers, one
or more COTS parallel I/O
cards are necessary in the
DARS Host.
These controllers, on their
turn, control the Low Level
Scanners and the ScaniValve
units (both not drawn here
for clarity).
The ScaniValve equipment
will be replaced in the future
by PSI equipment.

Description
Besides to the data
acquisition equipment, the
DARS Host is also connected
to the ILST PLC systems for
Model Control and Tunnel
Control.
The Central PLC (PLC System
#1 in Figure 3) acts as the
main hub for the other PLC
systems.
The existing RS-422 link
between the DARS Host and
the Central PLC will be
replaced by an Ethernet link
using TCP/IP and/or UDP/IP
communications protocol.
Figure 3 Proposed Wind
tunnel D/A System subnet
LAGG will be responsible for
the purchase of this card, the
development of the required
PLC software and the
composition (in cooperation
with NLR) of the Interface
Control Document (ICD).
The Time Code Generator
will be replaced by the
Network Time Protocol (NTP)
as a means to synchronize all
computers and to provide a
unique time stamp for the
acquired data points.
In general, the use of
Ethernet instead of the DASbus as the main data bus will
result in the following
changes of the Data
Acquisition and Data
Processing network
structure:
Replacement of the HP 1000
computers, HP 9000
computers and DAS
Interfaces by PCs with Linux;
Installation of standard
Ethernet switches to connect
the Conditioning Units and
DAS Hubs directly to the
DARS computer.
For the Conditioning Units:
Replacement of the DAS-bus
interface by an Ethernet
interface (see section
2.2.3.1);
For the remaining
unmodified equipment
(Calibration Generators,
Inclinometer Conditioning
Units, etc.): Connection to
Ethernet via a number of 8channel DAS Hubs (see

Description
The upgrade of the
Conditioning Units to
Ethernet requires two
modifications on the
Conditioning Units:
The replacement of the
current Digital Interface
board by an Ethernet
Interface board;
The modification of the rear
panel.
All the functions for onboard control, data
processing, data storage and
the interfacing with Ethernet
are implemented as
firmware in a COTS Linuxembedded computer
module, the Toradex Colibri.
Particular attention has been
paid to the synchronization
of measurements between
Conditioning Units, other
DAS-bus equipment and
external equipment.
This is supported by means
of an External Trigger input,
which replaces the original
DAS-bus Strobe signal, as
well as by several software
trigger options (using
Ethernet command
messages).
The modification of the rear
panel is required to replace
the current DAS-bus and
accompanying Strobe
connectors with Ethernet
and External Trigger input
connectors.
Two External Trigger input
connectors are placed to
allow daisy-chaining of
cabling between
Conditioning Units.
It should be noted that this
version has another type of
Calibration Bus connector.
Also, a cavity has been added
on top, intended glue a serial
number plate in.
The ILST Conditioning Units
will have comparable rear
panels.
With the DAS Hub (see
Figure 6) unmodified DASbus equipment can be
connected to Ethernet using
a communication protocol
very similar to the version
used in the Conditioning
Units.

Description
A maximum of eight DAS-bus
units, either Binary or BCD
devices, can be connected to
a single DAS Hub.
A common External Trigger
input is provided for all
connected devices.
For the NTC Conditioning a
dedicated DAS Hub is
available.
This unit connects a single
NTC Conditioning to Ethernet
and is equipped with an
additional Step/Home
connector.
For a proper implementation
it is necessary that the
actually applied excitation
voltage is measured for the
on-board calculation of the
normalized value (i.e. no
post-processing required)
and that this measurement
does not influence the
overall conversion speed of
the Conditioning Unit.
This requires a modification
on the Ethernet Interface
board (see section 2.2.3.1),
i.e. electronic circuitry will be
added to measure and
digitize the actual voltage, so
it can be read by the onboard computer module.
The firmware will also be
modified in order to
calculate the normalized
output, so it can be read by
the external DA computer.
Figure 7 Calculation of
normalized output
A total of fifteen additional
Conditioning Units are
offered to extend the
measurement capabilities of
the DA system.
Because of obsolescence
problems with electronic,
electromagnetic and
mechanical components a
number of printed-circuit
boards will have to be
redesigned.
The printed-circuit boards
will be regarded as Line
Replaceable Units (LRU) and
will therefore be functionally
the same to allow
exchanging with the original
boards.
The technical specifications
will also remain unchanged.

Description
The most efficient solution to
these problems is the
replacement of the used
Newport panel voltmeters
with a drop-in printedcircuit board replacement.
This new development will
have comparable
specifications as the original
Newport voltmeters.
It will also consist of a preamplifier section with fixed
gains of 1 and 100 in order to
support both types of
Newport voltmeters.
The two aging Calibration
Generators are replaced by
COTS devices.
Foreseen is the Burster
Model 4462 EN High
Precision Calibration Source
[1].
This device has at least the
same accuracy as the NLR
Calibration Generator.
The advantages are that this
device can be calibrated
regularly and economically at
any location worldwide, and
can that is can easily be
connected to the new DARS
computer.
This third-generation EMS
supports up to four TPS
engines and is much smaller
than the previous systems.
It is intended for use with the
updated DNW data
acquisition systems, i.e.
based on Ethernet
communication and has
therefore no DAS-bus and
Display-bus anymore.
The EMS consists of the
following main components
(see Figure 9):

(RDC)
The Remote Data
Concentrator has to be

limit the amount of wiring
between the model and the
EMS.
It acquires and conditions
the onboard temperature
signals from thermo-couples
and Pt-100 sensors.

EMS
LAGG intends to update the
current ScaniValve pressure
measurement equipment of
the Wind Tunnel D/A System
(see Figure 1) in the future
by a more modern system of
Pressure Systems Inc. (PSI).
NLR will incorporate the
required external interface in
the DARS DA software (see
section 2.2.5) as soon as the
hardware has been selected
by LAGG.
The software for the DARS
and Calibration System Host
computers will be based on
the DRACHME kernel.
In short, the DRACHME
kernel software provides the
following services:
Automatic (re-)configuration
of nodes;
Real-time distribution blocks
of data between tasks;
Distribution and routing of
commands between tasks;
One-to-many distribution of
text messages between
tasks.
Together with a number of
open source and industry
standard toolboxes, the
DRACHME kernel can be
used to develop any Facility
Management System (FMS)
for wind tunnel applications
and may consists of one or
more nodes.
The ILST DARS software will
be developed using GNU and
Linux tools.
The specific GUI tasks will be
developed using easy to use

LAGG is also requested to


provide a data set of an
existing wind tunnel test,
consisting both of raw data
and results, in order to
compare and verify the
behaviour of the original
system with the behaviour of
the upgraded system (in
particular the DARS-DPS
chain).
This NLR in-house testing will
assure a proper operation of
the DA-DP network before
delivery to LAGG.
Finally, LAGG is requested to
deliver the Interface Control
Document of the interface
between the PLC systems
and the DARS Host computer
(DARS-PLC ICD).
This document will describe
the interface in detail, both
with respect to protocol and
timing.
An initial version will be used
as a basis to discuss the
optimal and most efficient
interface implementation on
both sides.
A template for the ICD will
be provided by NLR.
After mutual agreement the
final document will be the
basis for NLR to develop a
PLC System Interface
Simulator that will be used
to test the required external
interface software for the
DARS computer.
A part of the software
development activities will
be performed by LAGG.
This concerns the
development of the
Graphical User Interfaces
(GUIs) of the DA and DP
systems, the development of
the DP plotting facilities and
the development of the DP
software interface with the
ILST Video System.
The joint development of
software by NLR and LAGG
has been defined such, that
it is possible to describe a
clear and well-defined
software interface between
the activities of both parties.
NLR will compile the
interface definitions, which
will be based on the

No derived requirements for the DPS software have been determined. The DPS software has
been ported to another platform, but has in essence the same functionality. This is particularly
valid for the internal functionality. The interface functionality has seen a number of changes,
such as the delivery of the results of data processing via udp sockets in xml format. Validation
of the DPS software will be performed with existing data sets of wind tunnel measurements.
