Abstract
A control system for a gas turbine engine is disclosed. In embodiments, control system includes a controller and a high speed recorder. The controller obtains a sensor value from a sensor connected to the gas turbine engine and publishes a tag that includes the type of event, the sensor value, and a timestamp. The high speed recorder checks the tag for an overspeed event. If an overspeed event is detected, the high speed recorder records values provided by the tag.
