Radio Trigger Module
RTM3
The Remote Trigger Module 3, or RTM3 3, is a new generation of impact trigger device. It is designed to time synchronize a single seismic source unit with multiple seismic recorders. It can also be used to synchronize multiple seismic recorders. The RTM3 units use an internal high accuracy oscillator that is synchronized to GPS timing information. Each RTM3 unit requires an external GPS receiver with valid satellite information to synchronize the internal clock. Once the internal clock is synchronized the RTM3 can be used without any GPS signal for up to 10 minutes.

Services
Besides our product line of perceptual quality testing products, we offer extensive services in the field of QoS testing, where you can immediately benefit from the technology source - the expertise and experience of our developers. This is most often the case for field studies, or during the evaluation of network components, either if the customer's demand for QoS testing is a temporary one, or simly, if no engineering resources are available otherwise. For instance, OPTICOM could provide comprehensive QoS consulting, including not only objective but as well subjective evaluation, like we did during the introduction of a novel digital satellite broadcast service in the U.S. As a major contributor to the ITU standards, OPTICOM can also provide expertise in implemenation and conformance testing of independent implementations. Even if your PESQ implementation works according to specs, you should consider that an independent conformance test seal could be an asset that will leverage the value of your product from a marketing persepective.

Satellite & Payload Check-Out Systems
Rovsing delivers systems for complete satellite or satellite subsystem testing. Rovsing has developed a modular test system architecture, based on S/W and H/W modules developed by Rovsing for most common space interfaces such as Power, TM/TC, MIL-STD-1553B and SpaceWire. A dedicated test system can then be composed by configuration of the modular architecture, installation of monitoring and control software, as well as test definition and scheduling software as required. Besides reduced development time, this has the advantage that the system to a large extent consists of elements that have been validated on previous missions.

Ocean Signal RescueME PLB1 (Personal Locator Beacon)
RescueME PLB1
The RescueME PLB1 is the world's smallest 406mhz & GPS enabled PLBOperation of the rescueME PLB could not be simpler. To activate the PLB: Pull the retractable antenna out by its end tab, flip open the spring loaded cover over the activation button, hold the button for 1 second until the lights blink. Visual instructions are clearly printed on the case. When activated, the rescueME PLB1 will transmit accurate position data from its 66 channel GPS for a minimum of 24 hours while the integrated strobe light ensures maximum visibility.Ocean Signal has ensured that rescueME, like all of its other safety products, exceeds statutory requirements. RescueME PLB provides an incredible 7 year battery life, and is covered by a 7 year warranty. Even after more than 24 hours of continuous operation, and when the battery power is insufficient to transmit the satellite signal, the PLB1's homing beacon and strobe light will continue to operate. This high intensity strobe light features a molded lens to enhance the visibility of its efficient LED and it gives a powerful 1 candela light emission.Self-test of the PLB can be carried out with a simple button press with the start of test and results clearly indicated by a green flashing light. The antenna is easily extended like a normal tape measure and can be retracted using the winding mechanism on the top of the unit. This unique feature greatly facilitates user training and familiarization as it is not a one time deployable antenna similar to existing PLBs.rescueME comes with a snap-in mounting bracket and universal rubber mounting strap which can be fitted permanently or with each use. It is also supplied with a detachable flotation lanyard to accommodate all scenarios out of the box.
