Connect
RTP-11J to:
1 Odd Open
2 Even RTP-13B
PROGRAM PIN PARITY:
A connection from RTP-11J and RTP-13B is made when the count of all
programming pin connections is even (i.e., count of all programming pin
connections including the parity must be odd).
Parity is determined by counting the number of input pins that are connected to
an output. Odd parity is expected, so an even number of connections is
considered a parity error. Note the parity is calculated over the following set of
input pins for XPDR/TAWS:
