Pentek Releases Newest Version of SystemFlow Software for Real-Time Recording Systems

April 7, 2007 - PRLog -- UPPER SADDLE RIVER, NJ – April 9, 2007–Pentek, Inc., a pioneer in VME board-level technology, today released the newest version of its SystemFlow real-time recording and development software for the Pentek family of RTS systems. SystemFlow software provides a rich set of features for controlling data-acquisition and recording functions and ensures a consistent look-and-feel for developers across all RTS systems. RTS systems are flexible and deployable real-time recording systems for acquiring, processing and analyzing signals and are ideal for high-performance radar, wireless, military communications, SIGINT telecom and satcom applications.

New to the Model 4990 SystemFlow software suite are a File Manager that simplifies file and data management and a Signal Viewer with enhanced display and analysis functions. In addition, the RTS systems now support both RAID and JBOD Fibre Channel disk arrays, boosting real-time recording capacity to 6 terabytes and higher. The new graphical user interface (GUI), now written entirely in Java development language, broadens host software support from Windows systems to new host platforms, including the Linux platform. Complete application programming interfaces (APIs) for both the host and target boost productivity for custom development at a much higher level. Finally, engineers receive full source code so they can customize all acquisition, recording and display functions.

"Our RTS Recording Systems help eliminate the time and risks associated with new technology systems development. With increasing pressure in both defense and commercial arenas to get to market first, today’s systems engineers are looking for off-the-shelf systems with higher levels of integration,” said Rodger Hosking, vice president of Pentek, Inc. "What sets the Pentek RTS recording systems apart from the rest is the well engineered, fully integrated software suite optimized for each system. This wide range of tools, from high-level APIs to low-level source code, provides the extra flexibility engineers need to tackle even the toughest applications," he added.

Pricing and Availability
Pricing for the RTS systems starts at $26,995 USD, and the Model 4990 SystemFlow software costs an additional $8,500 USD. These solutions are available immediately, and delivery is 10 to 12 weeks ARO.
