An R5000 system can be installed as a stand-alone radar system, or as an advanced
installation with several sensors and control stations.
In an advanced installation, each radar sensor has a control station directly wired to it. This
control station will be the radar sensor's default master controller. The R5000 radar
processors can be connected with an interswitch LAN cable. This allows for sharing the
control of the radar sensors between multiple radar control stations. During commissioning
of the system, the interswitch function is configured to manage the control of the radar
sensors. For more information, refer to "The Interswitch function" on page 24.
