Orchestra Control Board
The OCB is a microprocessor/digital signal processor (DSP) based board located within the
OCM that responds to the RF-B! transmitter controller commands (see Figure 2-6). The OCB
directly controls the Exciter module to maintain proper RF modulation and time
synchronization for FLEX, ReFLEX, and InFLEXion protocol operation. The OCB monitors
proper operation in the Exciter and the PA through a serial peripheral interface (SPI) bus. The
OCB design captures all requirements for interface with the RF-B! transmitter controller,
according to the Paging Station interface (Plug and Play) protocol.
