The Interswitch function
Description
The interswitch function allows for sharing a radar sensor between multiple radar control
stations.
Default master control station
The control station directly connected to a sensor shall always be that sensor’s default
master. A default master has top priority over all other control stations in the interswitch
network, and can assume master control for this sensor at any time.
In the event of an interswitch network failure, the control station and the directly wired
sensor will operate as a standalone radar.
The illustration shows an installation with 2 sensors and 4 control stations. The control
stations are connected via the interswitch network. In this example, sensor A is directly wired
to control station C. Control station C is then by default sensor A's default master. The same
applies to sensor B and control station D.
Control station modes
The control station can have different control modes for the sensors connected via the
interswitch network.
The illustration shows an example of control modes for an installation with 2 sensors and 4
control stations.
