ABSTRACT:
A portable system (20) for testing an electro-optical guidance assembly (22) includes an electro-optical test unit (40) with at least two sources of electromagnetic energy at different wavelengths for selectively illuminating the guidance assembly. The electro-optical test unit (40) is mounted within a frame (56) that can be part of a wheeled cart (50). The system (20) further includes one or more of: an adjustable fixture (84) for supporting a guidance assembly (22) for testing, a processor unit (42) for controlling the electro-optical test unit (40), a power supply unit (44) for providing electrical power to the electro-optical test unit (40) and the guidance assembly (22), and a leak test unit (46) for generating a vacuum in the guidance assembly (22) or for pressurizing the guidance assembly (22) with an inert gas to test for leaks.
