The PageMatrix controller is the heart of the system. It is connected via an RS-232 serial port to the MediaMatrix frame running MediaMatrix and PageMatrix software. In fact, one PageMatrix controller can control up to four separate MediaMatrix systems (four control data ports are provided). In addi- tion to the control ports, a single program port is available to receive data from the PageMatrix soft- ware. Typically, the PageMatrix configuration is designed and downloaded to the controller, then dis- connected from the program port.

The PageMatrix controller supports up to 16 unique paging stations including any combination of the Station Four-Wª, Station Fourª, and Station Tenª.
