Optionally time tags can be added to each parsed message.
A snarfer bus monitor captures all messages on the bus, tags them with a timestamp and content identifiers (for example Command or Status in the case of MIL-STD-1553 buses), and puts them into a FIFO.
Packetizer bus monitors are designed for networked data acquisition systems where the acquired data from the avionics buses is captured and re-packetized in Ethernet frames for transmission to an analysis computer or network recorder.
The application layer contains bus identifiers, sequence numbers and timestamps.
The most popular application layer protocols used for networked data acquisition systems include the Airbus IENA format[6] and the iNET (integrated Network Enhanced Telemetry) TmNS (Telemetry Network System) format.
