Basic Principles of Operation
The Talon RTX 2767 multiband record and playback system is built to operate under
harsh conditions. Designed to withstand high vibration and operating temperatures,
the RTX 2767 is intended for military, airborne and UAV applications requiring a rug−
ged system. With scalable A/Ds, D/As, and SSD storage, the RTX 2767 can be config−
ured to stream data to and from disk at rates as high as 5.0 GB/sec.
The RTX 2767 uses Pentek's high−powered Virtex−6−based Cobalt
vide flexibility in channel count, with optional digital downconversion capabilities.
Optional 16−bit, 800 MHz D/A converters with digital upconversion allow real−time
reproduction of recorded signals.
A/D sampling rates, DDC (Digital Downconversion) decimations and bandwidths,
D/A sampling rates and DUC (Digital Upconversion) interpolations are among the
GUI−selectable system parameters, providing a fully−programmable system capable of
recording and reproducing a wide range of signals. Optional GPS time and position
stamping allows you to record this critical signal information.

Hardware
The Talon RTX 2767 uses a shock− and vibration−isolated inner chassis and solid−state
drives to assure reliability under harsh conditions. The chassis uses an in−line EMI fil−
ter along with rear−panel MIL−style connectors to meet MIL−STD−461 emissions
specifications.
Up to four front−panel removable QuickPac drive canisters are provided, each con−
taining up to eight SSDs. Each drive canister can hold up to 7.6 TB of data storage and
allows for quick and easy removal of mission−critical data.
Forced−air cooling draws air from the front of the chassis and pushes it out the back via
exhaust fans. A hinged front door with a serviceable air filter provides protection
against dust and sand.

Software
The Talon RTX 2767 includes the SystemFlow
tures a Windows−based GUI (Graphical User Interface) that provides a simple and
intuitive means to configure and control the recorder. Custom configurations can be
stored as profiles and later loaded as needed, allowing the user to select preconfigured
settings with a single click.
SystemFlow also includes signal viewing and analysis tools that allow you to monitor
the signal before, during, and after a recording session. These tools include a virtual
oscilloscope and a virtual spectrum analyzer.
Built on a Windows 7 Professional workstation, the RTX 2767 allows you to install
post−processing and analysis tools to allow you to operate on the recorded data. The
RTX 2767 records data to the native NTFS file system, providing immediate access to
the recorded data. Data can be off−loaded via two rear−access gigabit Ethernet ports,
two USB 3.0 ports, or up to four USB 2.0 ports.
