The first ODW-720 unit recieives data from communications device 1 on the RS-232
port and sends it out on optical fibre TX1 using the primary data channel.
The second ODW-720 unit receives primary channel data on optical fibre RX2. Primary
channel data is repeated out on optical fibre TX1. The second ODW-720 unit also
receives data from communications device 2 on the RS-232 port. The RS-232 data is sent
out on optical fibre TX1 using the secondary data channel.
The third and fourth ODW-720 units receive both primary and secondary channel data
on optical fibre RX2. Both primary and secondary data are repeated out on optical fibre
TX1, but only the primary channel data is sent out on the RS-232 port.
The fifth ODW-720 unit receives both primary and secondary channel data on optical
fibre RX2, but only the secondary channel data is sent out on the RS-232 port.
