A Control and Measurement System for an Elevation over Azimuth Antenna Pedestal

This project concerns the design and implementation of a control and measurement system for an elevation over azimuth antenna on a Navy Jammer pedestal. The control system is run using LabVIEW from the parallel port of a PC, through the interfaced drive electronics. The measurement system involves acquiring data signals from the synchros on the pedestal and capturing the resulting data in a GUI based interface with a North Atlantic Industries, 76CS1 PCI S/D data acquisition card.
