7.4 Example 4 - 24 Receivers with Multiple Operator Positions
The example in Figure 17 shows a much larger system than the previous examples. Three CIB
modules are used to control a total of 24 receivers. The three IIB modules can be used to provide
control of all receivers from the main console. Each PC in the system can control all receivers as well.
The HIB modules provide both local and remote control of all receivers. With the HIB connected
directly to the modem, the comparators can be accessed from anywhere that has a dial-up phone line.
This system assumes the following:
•
(2) Spectra-TAC Comparator (comparators 1 & 2), 8 receivers each
•
(1) DIGITAC Comparator (comparator 3), 8 receivers
•
1000 feet between comparators room and the CEB room
•
Local PC display in the console electronics room
•
Dial-up PC for remote monitoring
•
Console Display using Extended IIBs
•
All comparators are mounted in the same rack.
•
The Dial-up HIB and the CIBs for the Spectra-TAC comparators will be rack mounted in same
cabinet as the comparators
•
CIBs will be connected to Spectra-TAC comparators with blunt-end cables wired directly to the
back of the comparators.
•
The CIB for the DIGITAC comparator will mount to the rear of the comparator with a Digitac
Bracket and Cabling kit.
•
IIBs will be rack mounted in the CEB room
•
The HIB in the CEB room will be mounted under a desk-top using a wall-mount kit.
•
Punch blocks are used for connection between the IIBs and the consoles CEB (punch blocks are
not shown on the diagram.)

(P/S = Power Supply, T = Network Terminator)
Power is provided to this MCN system from two power supplies. One supply power one HIB module
and all three CIB modules. Another supply power the second HIB module and the three IIB modules.
