The PSEUDO SIP Module is an element of the ICM spacecraft testing at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) in Washington D.C. The PSEUDO SIP Module also is used for launch support testing at Kennedy Space Center (KSC). The PSEUDO SIP Module emulates the Orbiter's Shuttle Interface Panel (SIP) during the testing and verifying of the PSEUDO T-0 umbilical at the Vertical Processing Facility (VPF) test cell and at the Payload Change-out Room (PCR) at the shuttle launch pad.
Flight Interface Side has identical connectors and connector layout as the Orbiter's Standard Interface Panel (SIP).
Ground Interface Side provides an ICM Ground Support Equipment (GSE) interface to the ICM Spacecraft.
