AN/PLM-4 End-to-End Test System - from TSO, EDO Corporation
The AN/PLM-4 Radar Signal Simulator (RSS) is an advanced capability, battery powered, portable, RF stimulator designed to perform maintenance, system performance and operational checkouts of Electronic Warfare (EW) receivers normally associated with Radar Warning Receivers (RWR), Electronic Support (ES) and Electronic Attack (EA) systems.

The AN/PLM-4 End-To-End Test System (ETETS) consists of an unmodified AN/PLM-4 Radar Signal Simulator (RSS), a RF Measurement Device (RFMD) accessory and a laptop PC controller. For users that currently have the AN/PLM-4 available, all that is required for ETETS capability is the RFMD and PC controller.The RSS ETETS can be used using existing RF antenna couplers (HATS), or HATS can be purchased at additional cost. The RSS ETETS PC software can be installed on most desktops and laptop PC's using Windows 98, ME, NT, 2000. The ETETS is unique in that it allows the users to perform full End-To-End tests on EW systems using a portable, battery powered test set that can be used anywhere in the world without the need for facility AC power. The ETETS operator interface is a Windows Graphical User Interface (GUI) that permits the operator to perform a variety of frequency accuracy, receiver sensitivity and transmitter output tests using configuration controlled automatic test programs. The ETETS test programs are developed using the ETETS Test Program (TP) Wizard. The ETETS TP allows system test engineers to quickly develop in-depth maintenance test programs without the need for knowledge of the ETETS operational software. The ETETS is designed for rapid deployment into areas of conflict in a package that consumes less than four cubic feet (excluding HATS). The ETETS footprint supports the AEF allowing advanced EW system testing in an austere operating environment.

• Similar in size and weight to AN/PLM-4
• Portable battery or mains powered
• 500 MHz - 18.0 GHz frequency coverage
• Measures CW/Pulse power, PRI and PW
• Rugged laptop control with Windows GUI
• Can be integrated with third party EO devices
