Monitor and Control

• Slaves: answer only• Report the truth• Remember calibrations and exceptions• Parameters in non-volatile memory• Monitor and control everything: no

potentiometers• Set/trip out philosophy for safety

Safety

• By design– Physical access restricted– Switch on under software control– Switch off via hardware or software

• Soft switching for transmitters?– Hardware keep-alives:

• OMMM to transmitters• Receivers to optical amplifiers (256 twisted

pairs!)
