Abstract :
The design of a microcomputer based line of test instruments used to check out nuclear systems under real time simulation is presented. To reduce both test time and the chance for technician error, special emphasis was given in the design to the programming of test functions and the inclusion of operating aids. The first application of this instrument, checkout of a BWR/6 Rod Control and Information System, is illustrated.
