Test management system to acquire, process and display test data

(Amended) A test management system for acquiring, processing and displaying test data comprising:

• signal conditioner process means for sampling a plurality of analog signals, having means for converting each sample of said plurality of analog signals to normalized digital data signals and having means for storing said normalized digital data signals;
• collecting process means coupled to said signal conditioner process means and having addressing means for addressing said storing means and receiving said normalized digital data signals, said collecting process means further having memory means for storing said normalized digital data signals;
• file server means coupled to said collecting process means for storing said normalized digital data signals received from said memory means;
• system master means coupled to said file server means and said collecting process means and having means for analyzing said normalized digital data signals received from said memory means and said file server means, said system master means further having real time data reduction means coupled to said test control means and said collecting process means for receiving said normalized digital data signals from said collecting process means for checking against predetermined limits and generating limit violation signals if said predetermined limits are exceeded;
• and
• graphics means responsive to said system master means for displaying the result of analyzing said normalized digital data signals.
