• 5.4 Salvos
Salvos are groups of cross points that are set up and then taken altogether in one
go as in a salvo of guns
.
There are two distinct processes associated with salvos in
Freeway
•
salvos set from an external control system.
•
salvos configured via Editors and set via control
panels.
In the first case an external system controller would be connected to one of the
Freeway
General Remote ports communicating Pro-Bel General Switcher protocol.
It
has the ability to set up and take salvos on the
Freeway.
Crosspoints within a
salvo are stored and only taken on receipt of a GO command from the system
controller. Before setting the actual cross points the route inhibit table is first
checked if the check route inhibit table flag is set for the port.
In the second case, salvos can be configured from the Editors and taken using the
control panels or the Editors. The salvos are stored as part of the database - the
default being no salvos configured. Salvos can be dialled up and taken like a
source association from the control panels.
