- A Functional block diagram of the entire system should be presented here.
- By now, your payload should have excellent block diagrams after CDR completion.
- Use this diagram as a basis/reference as you explain to me how things integrated together.
- Be sure to define subsystem acronyms
Functional Block Diagram

ISTR
- How did you integrate your various subsystems?- To what level (Full system or just subsystem to subsystem?)
- i.e. - Power board verified, then connected to main board- Powered up main board and verified voltages at all sensors- Connected control board.... Blah, blah, blah- After testing electrical boards, mounted to RockSat-X plate- Mounted mechanical boom to plate- Connected mechanical boom to control board... Blah, blah, blah
- Show pictures! I am hoping to see components fitting together
Integration Procedure
Integrating the tether spool onto the power and unpowered hubs(EXAMPLE Picture and description)

- What went wrong?- What will be done to remedy the
problem?- What lesson (if any) was learned?- Pictures!
- What went right?- Pictures- Best practices
- What advice could you give to next year’s team?

- Once integrated, did you test any of the integrated subsystems?- Why did you perform the test that you did?- If you didn’t test integrated subsystems, why not?
- If you had a failure, which prevented testing, how will you move forward?
- Pictures!
Integrated Subsystem Testing
Control board mounted to main board
Testing functionality of push-button state changes in software
(EXAMPLE)
RockSat-C 2011
ISTR
- Did everything work as planned?- Did all electronics communicate?
- Did the software work with all subsystems?- Did the sensors return reasonable data?
- Will the sensors need calibration?
- Most importantly, just summarize your findings- What needs to change before flight?- Action items…
Testing Results
Push-button Software Control: Success
Successfully changed software states through push-buttons. No changes required for flight
Main and Control boards could NOT be integrated into structure due hole misalignment. Next revision of board will have correct hole alignment.

– What is your plan from now until your first Day In The Life (DITL) testing report?• Currently scheduled for 4/20/2011
SITR to DITL 1
