Appendix A Satellite Systems

A satellite system configuration is usually used for a medium to large distributed system, or to obtain extremely large matrix sizes configured more conventionally. Typically, a single Main control site can be used to view/control cameras located both locally and at various remote satellite sites. Since up to 256 satellite sites can be linked to a single Main control site, very large, distributed systems can be achieved. If the satellite systems are located at the same site as the Main system, the result is a large conventional-type system.

In a satellite configuration, the Main control site can view/control any camera in the entire system, but the remote satellite sites can only view/control cameras associ- ated with their own site. Satellites may be configured to operate either indepen- dently or, with no local viewing/control capability.

It is also possible to configure satellite systems where each site can view/control cameras from anywhere in the system. For a two (2) site system, this is referred to as a dual master configuration. In the same manner, triple and quadruple master system configurations can also be configured. Cascaded satellite systems, where a Main site has a satellite which is a master to another satellite is another available scenario. In fact, it is possible to configure systems that include a mixture of any or all of the above scenarios.
