Programming The Call Book in Multipoint Systems
In a Multipoint system the slaves and repeaters are not listed in the master's Call
Book. When establishing such a system, it is necessary only to have the master's
serial number in each slave's and repeater's Call Book, and to have each
repeater's serial number in the Call Book of each slave which may potentially
communicate through it.
The following example shows the Call Books of a multipoint system comprised of
a master, repeater, and slave in which the slave can communicate either through
the repeater or directly to the master:
Multipoint Master Call Book (Unit Serial Number 555-0001)
Entry Number Repeater1 Repeater2
(0) 000-0000
(1) 000-0000
No serial number entries are necessary in the master’s Call Book
The master’s Call Book may be programmed to call any entry
Multipoint Repeater Call Book (Unit Serial Number 555-0002)
Entry Number Repeater1 Repeater2
(0) 555-0001
(1) 000-0000
Multipoint Slave Call Book (Unit Serial Number 555-0003)
Entry Number Repeater1 Repeater2
(0) 555-0001
(1) 555-0002
(2) 000-0000
At times it may be desirable to force a slave to go through a specific multipoint
repeater. If this is the case that slave’s Call Book should contain only the serial
number for the repeater in the upper left hand corner.
Note: If the network ID option is used no entries are needed in the Call Book of
any of the transceivers in a multipoint system.
