Large Area Telescope

End Item Data Package (EIDP)

Description of the LAT End Item Data Package

This End Item Data Package contains electronic copies of documents that accompany the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on its delivery from the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) to the system's end customers, the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) and General Dynamics/Spectrum Astro Space Systems (GD/SASS). These documents include LAT-level specifications, LAT subsystem-level specifications, LAT-level requirements verification plans, requirements to test verification matrices, test procedures, test reports, requirements verification reports, documentation for EGSE and MGSE, and other documentation deemed useful to confirm that the LAT meets its requirements and to assist with observatory integration and test activities.

Documents presented in this EIDP have been committed to the searchable LATDocs configuration management database maintained at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) in Menlo Park, CA and/or are - in the case of signed selloff reports, test logs, etc - stored in a hardcopy archive, also maintained at SLAC. Additional logs and reports are stored in the LAT Integration and Test Team E-Logbook database.

Contents for GSFC Systems Engineering

For systems engineering personnel at GSFC, this EIDP presents all of the documents related to LAT requirements verification and selloff starting with LAT-level and subsystem-level requirements specifications. Also presented are the verifications plans describing how those requirements are to be tested and verified. The EIDP also uses the flow of the LAT-level test program at NRL to organize the detailed pre-test reports, test plans, test procedures, and test runs/logs at each stage of testing. All nonconformance reports and waivers open at the time of shipment are described.

Contents for SASS Integration and Test

In support of LAT delivery and observatory integration and test activities, this EIDP presents a complete set of transportation and handling records and LAT mechanical ground support equipment (MGSE) and electronics ground support equipment (EGSE) specifications, drawings, acceptance and verification test reports, user guides, etc.
