COM 04 can be used for a 15-to-1 multiplexer for all channels between 000 and 042. COM 05 can be the common for all channels from 000 through 052 creating an 18-to-1 multiplexer. Multiplexers of 21-to-1, 24-to-1, and 27-to-1 can also be configured. Two 30-to-1 multiplexers can be created using channels 00 through 132 to COM 05 and channels 200 through 332 to COM 25. One 60-to-1 multiplexer can be created using all the channels to COM 25.

RF Switch Configuration

This section gives guidelines to configure the RF Switch module, including:

•Warnings and Cautions

•Selecting the Logical Address

•Setting the Interrupt Request Level

•Connecting User Wiring

Warnings and

Cautions

WARNING	SHOCK HAZARD. Only service-trained personnel who are
	aware of the hazards involved should install, remove, or
	configure the module. Before you remove any installed
	module, disconnect AC power from the mainframe and from
	other modules that may be connected to the module.


WARNING	CHANNEL WIRING INSULATION. All channels that have a
	common connection must be insulated so that the user is
	protected from electrical shock in the event that two or more
	channels are connected together. This means wiring for all
	channels must be insulated as though each channel carries
	the voltage of the highest voltage channel.


CAUTION	MAXIMUM POWER. The maximum RF power that can be applied
	to the module is 10 Watts RF. Do not apply line AC power to any terminal
	on this module.


CAUTION	STATIC ELECTRICITY. Static electricity is a major cause of component
	failure. To prevent damage to the electrical components in the module,
	observe anti-static techniques whenever removing a module from the
	mainframe or working on a module.
