Table 1 - Receiver States
The last 5 items listed in Table 1 are used to show a transmitter’s status along
with the corresponding receiver’s status. This transmitter status will only be
displayed if the Comparator I/O Module monitoring the receivers is also operating
with a TSAM Interface Module (TIB) to provide monitoring and control of
transmitter sites (see section 2.3).
7.5 Controlling Receivers
You can use the MCNRCD program to control the receiver operation at your
remote comparator. You can manually FORCE VOTE a receiver from the PC and
listen to its audio quality over your system. You can also DISABLE a receiver
that is defective or has a bad phone line. When the receiver or phone line is
repaired, you can re-enable the receiver from the PC.
