Figure 7 shows a system that has three Comparator I/O Modules located in
comparator room A, two Comparator I/O Modules located in comparator room B,
two User Interface Modules located at a maintenance site and two User Interface
Modules located in a dispatch room. For this system, all of the modules in a
single room are set to the same Group number. All modules in comparator room
A are assigned to Group 01. All modules in comparator room B are assigned to
Group 02. The User Interface Modules in the dispatch room are set to Group 80.
The User Interface Modules at the maintenance site are set to Group 81.
With this setup, all of the Comparator I/O Modules are addressed into two
different Groups. This allows plenty of expansion in both comparator rooms, but
since only 2 groups are used, it allows the PCs running the MCN Remote
Comparator Display Software to monitor and control all receivers in the system
from a single screen.
