AceFCT is a factory compatibility tester that combines hardware and software and communicates with an accredited space vehicle before launch.<\/strong> The ACE factory compatibility tester provides a cost-efficient, portable, and rapid means to conduct Satellite Control Network (SCN) and Commercial Augmentation Services (CAS) network ground station compatibility testing before the satellite launch, therefore reducing the risk of incompatibility before launch and potential on-orbit failures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

AceFCT is fully flexible to reduce risk, gain schedule, and validate ground station compatibility prior to satellite launches.<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n

What Is The Ace Factory Compatibility Tester And How Does It Work?<\/strong>

This Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) capability readily expands through software updates to perform factory compatibility testing for additional ground antenna networks including NASA, other government agencies, and shared and dedicated ground networks. The portable AceFCT reduces the footprint for factory compatibility testing to a single 9U transportable case. It also complies with the Air Force Space Command\u2019s Enterprise Ground Services (EGS) and will provide a Goddard Mission Services Evolution Center (GMSEC) interface to test and validate new EGS applications. <\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n
