Galaxy Millennium Controller
Design The Galaxy Millennium Controller is equipped with a Basic control
board (BSH) for basic operations and an optional Intelligent control
board (BSJ) that provides advanced local and remote monitoring and
data acquisition features. These CPU control boards monitor each
other’s status and issue appropriate alarms in the event a failure occurs.
Each cabinet used with the Galaxy Millennium Controller requires a bay
interface card (BIC). The BIC acts as an interface to the cabinet control
and alarm signals.
User Interface and
Display
The Millennium’s primary user interface is a panel that includes a
backlit LCD front panel display that can be viewed in English or
Spanish, two rows of LEDs, an array of pushbutton keys, and a pair of
test jacks. Figure 3-1 illustrates the Millennium’s front panel.
