The RF-C! Controller
The RF-C! controller is the messaging system controller for the transmitters and receivers in a
region. The RF-C! controller routes voice and text messages from the WMG-Administrator! to
the appropriate transmitters through the transmitter controllers and returns responses from
the RF-A! receivers to the WMG-Administrator!.
The Choreographer! Network Manager
The Choreographer! network manager is a software interface for voice and data
communications used in the paging infrastructure. The interface manages and configures
network devices.
The RF-B! Transmitter Controller
The RF-B! transmitter controller provides an interface between the RF-C! Controller and the
RF-O! transmitter. The RF-B! transmitter controller also provides synchronization timing for
the transmitter using a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver.
The RF-O! Paging Station
The RF-O! paging station is a linear transmitter for voice and data messaging that supports up
to two InFLEXion subchannels and three ReFLEX channels. The RF-O! paging station converts
data received from the RF-B! transmitter controller into modulated radio frequency (RF)
energy for transmission to the communicators.
RF-A! Receivers
The RF-A! receivers return messages transmitted by the subscriber communicators. RF-A!
receivers funnel their outputs through a multiplexer that provides a single link back to the
RF-C! controller. RF-A! receivers can be stand-alone or co-located with a transmitter.
