Introduction

This document describes the TEMU MIL-STD-1553 bus model and its interfaces. The MIL-STD-1553 standard is often referred to as simply milbus or 1553.

The 1553 protocol is described in detail in the well known "MIL-STD-1553 Tutorial" document from AIM GmbH (formerly published by Condor). It is recommended that persons involved with modelling bus controllers and remote terminals keep a copy of that document at close hand.

The TEMU support for the 1553 protocol consist of a bus interface (Mil1553BusIface), a bus model (MilStd1553Bus) and a bus client interface (Mil1553DevIface).

This approach enables the user to not only implement remote terminal models, but also to implement their own bus models would the bundled one not be found suitable (e.g. if the user have existing remote terminal models that must be integrated with specific interfaces).

The most common task for the end user will normally be to implement remote terminal models, but bus controllers are also possible as they use the same interface.
