  • Page 7: Sentry Network Control System Overview

    Sentry Network Control System Overview The Sentry Control System is a networked system of display panels and machine controllers connected by fiber-optic cable. This cable is non-conductive and is immune to electrical noise, providing high quality communications. Located at each machine is a Machine Controller. This unit performs environment control and monitoring of the setter or hatcher.
