The paper has been intended to present research/testing tools used in the Air Force Institute of Technology to build integrated communication systems and test operation thereof, as far as both devices that compose the system and the applied software are concerned. Particular attention has been paid to the so-called integration station (built under the Mi-8, Mi-17, Mi-24 modernisation project), intended to activate communication systems integrated on the basis of digital data buses (MIL-1553B). Also, the mobile servicing and control set ZDZSŁ-1 to service and diagnose these systems has been discussed in details. Such equipment has allowed AFIT to gain the-state-of-the-art capabilities presented by western companies in the field of integrating new communication devices/systems, the already accomplished modernisation of the W-3PL helicopter ("Głuszec"/"Capercaillie") and a project of such a system for the TS-11F "Iskra" ("Spark") being perfect examples. Some selected tasks performed with this testing station engaged have been discussed. Also, problems arising while activating and testing the developed software to integrate communication devices/systems (including digitally controlled radio stations of the RF-5800H and XM-6013P types, and communication control panels of the PSŁ-1 type have been given consideration in the scope of the software functionality and reliability. Presented are also additional monitoring and measuring systems used to test this software, just to mention acoustic generators as well as special and navigation signals testers.

W artykule przedstawiono narzędzia badawcze wykorzystywane w Instytucie Technicznym Wojsk Lotniczych do budowy i testowania pracy zintegrowanych systemów łączności w zakresie urządzeń i oprogramowania w nich wykorzystywanego. Szczególną uwagę poświęcono tzw. stanowisku integracyjnemu, przeznaczonemu do uruchamiania systemów łączności integrowanych na bazie cyfrowych szyn danych (MIL-1553B) oraz mobilnemu zestawowi obsługowo-kontrolnemu ZDZSŁ-1 przeznaczonemu do ich obsługi i diagnozowania. Posiadanie takiego stanowiska pozwoliło m.in. na modernizację śmigłowca W-3PL "Głuszec" oraz opracowanie projektu systemu dla samolotu TS-11F "Iskra". Omówiono wybrane zadania realizowane przez zbudowane stanowisko oraz problemy pojawiające się podczas uruchamiania i testowania opracowywanego oprogramowania integrującego urządzenia łączności w zakresie jego funkcjonalności i niezawodności działania. Przedstawiono także dodatkowe specjalizowane urządzenia badawcze wykorzystywane do testowania tego oprogramowania oraz testery sygnałów specjalnych i nawigacyjnych.
What has been presented in the paper is a research/testing tool used in the Air F orce Institute of Technology (Instytut Techniczny Wojsk Lotniczych - ITWL) to build, actuate, test, and optimise integrated communication systems as far as both a set of devices the system is composed of and the applied software are concerned. Particular attention has been paid to the so-called integration station (built under the Mi-8, Mi-17, Mi-24 upgrade project), i.e. the laboratory equipment to optimise and unify communication systems integrated on the basis of digital data buses (following the MIL-1553B standard, among other ones). Such equipment has allowed ITWL to integrate new communication devices/systems while upgrading the W-3PL helicopter. Some selected tasks performed with this equipment engagedhave been discussed. Also, problems arising while actuating and testing the developed software to integrate communication devices/systems (including digitally controlled radio stations of the RRC, HARRIS, and MR6000 types, communication control panels of the PSL-1 type and multi-function displays of the MW-l type) have been given consideration in the scope of the software functionality and reliability. Presented are also additional monitoring and measuring systems used to test this software, just to mention the M230 rugged laptop computer used to diagnose the system and prepare plans of the radio communication.
