Electrical Ground Support Equipment
TensorEGSE is a compact, all-in-one EGSE designed for seamless integration with Tensor Tech's products, including ADCS boards, CMGs, and FSS units.
With built-in power, UART/RS485 interfaces, and an intuitive UI, it enables quick setup, monitoring, and control of your ADCS hardware.
Supporting both LAN and direct PC connections, TensorEGSE streamlines testing and firmware updates out of the box, minimizing setup time so you can focus on mission success.
Product Features
Designed for flight software developers and AIT engineers.
Plug-and-play integration with TensorADCS, TensorCMG, and TensorFSS.
Comprehensive command-line interface for testing and firmware updates.
Integrated power supply with monitoring and supervision.
Includes portable example code.
EGSE-UI is a terminal-based interface built into TensorEGSE for control and real-time monitoring of connected subsystems. Developers can view power metrics, send commands, and operate ADCS, CMG, and FSS devices via built-in CLI tools. The interface supports logging, firmware updates, and voltage/current safety checks, with examples and command structures to accelerate development and testing.

EGSE?
Electrical Ground Support Equipment (EGSE) is essential in satellite development, enabling manufacturers and integrators to validate electrical functions on the ground before launch by simulating missing subsystem interfaces to ensure full compatibility.
COMPONENTS
ADCS-10m
TensorADCS-10m is an integrated ADCS with a variable speed control moment gyroscope (CMG) which is suitable for satellites up to roughly 3U. This module can be installed within the tuna can or the satellite structure.
