Typical MCN Remote Comparator Display System
The CIB modules accept Force-Vote and Disable commands
from the network and generate the Force-Vote and Disable
outputs to the comparator.
The receiver data is passed over the network to Operator
Interfaces. The diagram shows a dial-up PC connected to the
network via modems and a HIB Host Interface Module. It also
shows a local PC with an internal PCLTA network interface
card connected directly to the network. The operator
commands (Force-Vote and Disable) are passed from the PCs
through the network to the CIB modules.
As shown above, the PCs can control multiple comparators.
Other system configurations support multiple remote
comparator sites.
The MCN Remote Comparator Display software can run on
Dispatch Console PCs. Alternately, modules are available to
connect the system to consoles via console Input/Output
modules.
Multiple Displays
The MCN System offers full parallel status and control at
multiple PC Operator Interfaces. PC Displays and Console
Displays may be mixed in a single system with some
limitations.
Dial-Up Applications
For maintenance purposes, the PC display can be used over
dial-up lines with HIB-232 modules. Since the PC does not
have to be dedicated, it may be used for other applications
when not monitoring the comparator. Technicians can even
diagnose after-hours system problems from home using a
properly equipped PC and dial-up modem.
