A remote panel module must have a CR Series control panel attached to be usable. The remote
panel module can be set up for operation under CRSC or NV9000.
Under CRSC, when you execute operations on the attached control panel, the remote panel
module sends commands to the network of routers and receives status messages from the
routers. The attached control panel shows router status on its buttons.
Under NV9000, when you execute operations on the attached control panel, the remote panel
module sends commands to the NV9000 and receives status messages from the NV9000 which
communicates with the routers. The attached control panel shows router status on its buttons.
A stand-alone network allows up to 16 remote panel modules, up to 4 routers, and up to 4
levels.
A CRSC network allows up to 16 remote panel modules, up to 4 routers, up to 8 levels, and
enhanced capabilities.
An NV9000 network allows an indefinite number of remote panels, routers, and levels. The limi-
tations are the number of IP addresses in your network and of course the throughput of the
network.
A network requires one or more customer-supplied Ethernet switches.
