EASTE General Description
	The ALM-280 is a ruggedized, fully programmable mobile Radar / Electronic Warfare (R/EW) test system designed to accomplish performance verification of a wide variety of R/EW systems.
	The EASTE System generates complex RF signals and evaluates responses from the System-Under-Test (SUT).
	The ALM-280 is designed to be operated via user-friendly display prompts. A remote terminal keyboard/display allows a single technician to control test activity and analyze test results remotely, even from inside the aircraft crew compartment.
	A key feature of the ALM-280 is its versatility in allowing the operator to create RF emitters via keyboard input and perform automatic calibration and self-test.
	The ALM-280 test set operates in either automatic, semi-automatic or manual modes to provide increased performance measurement efficiency for SUT maintenance and fault isolation.
	The EASTE's versatile hardware and software design make it an excellent tool for developmental testing of new R/EW systems or evaluating upgrades to existing systems.
