Operation in an MCN Network
The CCU can be seen in an MCN network as a CIB unit or as a CCU unit. If the
MCNRCD software is configured to see it as a CIB unit, only the first 5 (toggle)
sections will be active as Function Blocks.
For each function block (section) of the CCU, you will have to select an
appropriate Display Table to use. Standard CCU Display Tables are:

Table 11 –CCU Display Table & Mouse Bit Functions
The Toggle 1 In and Toggle 2 In reflect the state of the Tgl 1 & Tgl 2 inputs for
the particular section of the CCU being monitored. They will normally be "Don't
Care" bits in dispatch displays. They can be displayed (in a special bit-wise
display table) for use by a technician to verify that the Toggle signals from the
consoles are being seen at the CCU.
Normally the Toggle mouse actions will be used. The Force Set and Force Reset
functions are available to explicitly set and reset the functions. They are provided
to allow a special CCU device descriptor to be made for the MCNRCD software.
The Display Table entries for the CCU can be configured to generate logging or
alarms if desired.
