Jupiter Facility Control System

The Jupiter control system can be used to operate the Trinix router

using a VM-3000 or CM-4000 System Controller (

Figure 34

). The VM/

CM can receive switching commands from a variety of serial sources,

including Jupiter control panels or an automation computer.

Figure 34. Control connections to Jupiter Facility Control System (example).

In this application, the Trinix is operated in the “external crossspoint

bus control” mode, during which the Broadlinx board releases control

of the crosspoint bus. Switch commands arriving at the crosspoint bus

connector on the rear of the chassis will be executed.
