Control Modules—Network Control Module 200 Series 5
A Network Identity Module (NIM) (Item 1 in Figure 1) is a submodule
that configures features and data base capacity for the NCM200.
The NIM206 covers all applications supported by previous NIMs. When
replacing an NIM (for example, an NIM102), use the NIM206. The
NIM206 is factory installed in the NCM201.

The microprocessor (Item 2 in Figure 1) applies the various supervisory
programs to the combined data, and controls the modules and devices that
connect to the NCM via a local bus.
This supervision and control operates in the same manner when any of the
Standard Functionality program sets (standard, fire management,
intelligent access control, or Operator Terminal) are downloaded.
For the Migration Functionality program set, the microprocessor translates
data from the field gear into compatible code for the target system:
•
For S2 Migration, the microprocessor integrates the incoming S2 data
into Metasys and extends NCM supervisory and control functions
over the objects on the S2 trunk.
•
For JC/85 Gateway, the NCM microprocessor:
- executes commands from the JC/85 headend to objects on the
Metasys side
- provides attribute information for all objects on the Metasys side
- translates and sends Metasys reports to the JC/85 devices
