3-1. Introduction
This section provides system configuration information for the MVS-8000 system
The MVS-8000 system has three Ethernet connections for panel and devices communications (control,
data, peripheral systems).
The control LAN is intended to control the various devices from the center control panel (CCP-8000).
The data LAN is intended to exchange of various type of data (key frame effects, snapshot, etc.) and still
pictures of frame memory. This network allows the transfer of files without adversely effecting communi-
cations over the control LAN.
The peripheral LAN is intended to exchange tally information between the center control panel and the
device control unit.
All MVS-8000 system devices on same LAN must be connected to the same Ethernet switch.
n
It is not available to connect MVS-8000 system LAN to your existing facility LAN.
The control LAN and peripheral LAN allow the following number of devices within a LAN to keep real-
time processing.
