2.3 Typical Radio Configurations

There are three different radio scenarios that can be accommodated: a single controller
system, a multiple controller system with a single broadcast group, and a multiple controller
system with multiple broadcast groups. Each of these configurations is described in detail in
the following sections.

Single Controller System

In a single controller system (Figure 5), all radio receivers and all scoreboards receive signal
from the same console at all times. The default channel and broadcast group settings on the
receiver are not typically modified. An example of this type of system is a football field with
a scoreboard in one or both end zones displaying the same information.

Typically, all single controller systems will use the default setting BCAST = 1, CHAN = 1.
All radio receivers in the system must be set to the same values.
