Mission Control Software

Mission Control Software (MCS) provides easy-to-use monitoring and control during development and flight, harnessing the power of automation and unattended operations to significantly improve efficiency and scalability.

About

The Mission Control Software (MCS) offers a flexible and integrated graphical environment for all aspects of mission operations, seamlessly tying together monitoring, control, and automation. It provides a rich environment for parameter and event monitoring, including telemetry visualisation and archiving, telemetry monitoring with alarms, and condition notification. The graphical environment integrates commanding with monitoring and other tasks, offering a clear and efficient view of operations, while powerful scripting enables complex tasks to be achieved quickly and effortlessly.

Extensive scheduling and automation features, such as automated pass management including downlink/uplink handling, allow for efficient unattended operations to improve mission reliability and maximise uptime. The underlying core technology creates a model of the system shared by the entire mission, both flight and ground, meaning the MCS understands how to interact with the flight side with almost zero manual configuration, saving time, effort, and cost. This model-based core technology creates a machine-readable description of the system that can be used across all life-cycle stages, allowing the MCS to automatically read the entire flight structure with little to no configuration, enabling intuitive automation and unattended operations, even across large systems and constellations.
