The ADMAS comprises a versatile, distributed, plug-n-play instrument LAN for military weapon systems testing. Each instrument node residing on the ADMAS LAN utilizes standard back-plane based computer, networking, and data acquisition technology to achieve a solid-state record of a uniquely specified data type (e.g., serial bus traffic, analog data, GPS streams). Through this distributed environment, ADMAS achieves a truly scalable architecture that can be configured for any multi-channel, multi-media configuration.

ADMAS is capable of interconnection with a host LAN via copper and wireless link to provide real-time monitoring and control of the instrumentation during testing.
