How the RCP-QE and Routing Switchers Communicate

Switching
The RCP-QE sends a switch request message through the NK-NET (or NK-IPS) to the routing switcher. The
routing switcher recognizes the request, sets the crosspoint, and then sends a response through the NK-NET (or
NK-IPS) to the RCP-QE.
Data Storage
The RCP-QE stores information on the menu, destination, level, breakaway, and machine control status. The
routing switcher stores the crosspoint status in its internal memory.
When the routing switcher system is powered up, the routing switcher restores its crosspoint status. The RCP-QE
requests the status of the routing switcher. The routing switcher sends the status of the crosspoints to the RCP-QE
