This test plan consists of two major sections for testing of MIL-STD-1553B data bus systems: Bus Network and System Integration Tests. This test plan defines the test requirements for: a) verifying that the bus network, (that is, cabling, couplers, connectors and terminators) when in the final system design configuration, complies with the requirements of MIL-STD-1553B and b) ensuring that when the bus system (that is, bus network, remote terminals and bus controllers) is integrated, it meets the specific requirements of MIL-STD-1553B, and provides for reliable communications within its system environment.
