The Terma Ground Segment Suite (TGSS) is a comprehensive set of tools that form a complete satellite control system, from satellite testing to operations. This allows the same tool set to be used throughout the whole spacecraft lifecycle. See below a presentation of the TGSS Suite: See below the demo:

At long last, users of Ubuntu and Debian can rejoice, since we have added an option to download CCS5 installers as DEB packages. Functionality and version numbering stays the same as for our RPM and Windows installers. Your feedback is welcome, as always. And a reminder about different kinds of builds that we offer:

This announcement affects only users of the following Tcl packages: These packages are not thread-safe and have seen little development over the last decade, therefore we advise against using them in new TOPE code. Existing TOPE code should gradually migrate away from them.Over years we have seen a number of problem reports caused by these […]

After more than 10y, we have decided to refactor the HOTRED (hot redundancy) capability of CCS5.   The new approach exploits new features created to support constellations which were not available at the time of the original design. We think the actions on failover, and robustness during a failure should be improved by these changes. […]

For the upcoming release we have reimplemented the Web service in Python, while keeping the REST API intact. This way we made […]

CCS5 has long been offering these two features that are enabled by default. However, they are required only in a handful of projects, and may cause inconvenience for others. Therefore, we have decided to turn them off by default, and projects that need them can still enable them in settings. TUR (Test Utilisation Reports) provide […]

This announcement affects only users of the TclTLS package. TSC and CCS5 installers do not include this package and the OpenSSL library anymore due to the following. TclTLS is 3rd-party open source software that has been long abandoned. It doesn’t work with current releases of OpenSSL 3.x. Moreover, there’s a 6 years old bug that […]

This announcement affects only users of the mysqltcl and Pgtcl packages. These are 3rd-party open source packages that haven’t been supported by their respective authors for many years, and we received a number of bug reports related to them. Therefore, these packages are planned for removal in the next CCS5 release. Instead of them we […]
