TIMS uses a block diagram-based interface for experiments in the classroom. TIMS can model mathematical equations to simulate electric signals, or it can use block diagrams to simulate telecommunications systems.[5]<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Breznik|first=Alfred|date=2004-10-01|title=TIMS-301 USER MANUAL|url=http://ecelabs.njit.edu/ece489/misc/tims301_user_manual.pdf|journal=EMONA INSTRUMENTS PTY LTD}}</ref>[18] It uses a different hardware card to represent functions for each block of the diagram.[22]<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Purani|first=Abhilash M.|date=2010-04-23|title=AN EVALUATION OF LOW COST FPGA-BASED SOFTWARE DEFINED RADIOS FOR EDUCATION AND RESEARCH|url=https://scholar.utc.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1509&context=theses|journal=A Thesis Presented for the Master of Science Degree The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga}}</ref>

TIMS consists of a server, a chassis, and boards that can emulate the configurations of a telecommunications system.[15] TIMS uses electronic circuits as modules to simulate the components of analog and digital communications systems.[3][17] TIMS modules can perform different functions such as signal generation, signal processing, signal measurement, and digital signal processing.[3][5]<br />
