TOGGLE 1-4 Type

TOGGLE 1-4

 is the simplest 

Type

, and items in its menu are present also in menus for other 

Types

A

 - this is a "live" visualization of current 

state of individual relays; relays' state can 
be toggled by clicking on the individual 
"buttons" or their names. If given ARXC is 
not present on the bus, this field is greyed 
out, although relays state can still be 
toggled and upon connecting the ARXC, 
relays will be switched accordingly.

B

 - each relay has an editable name, this is 

then used as a reference in Presets etc.

C

 - this is a live indication of ARXC internal 

temperature.

BCD-N Type

For 

BCD-N

 type, the menu window is slightly different:

A

 - the 

BCD-N

 group has an editable name, 

again used as reference to this group.

B

 - one of applications of 

BCD-N

 group is 

control of Four Square-type of antenna 
arrays, so if azimuth control is enabled for 

BCD-N

, the primary direction corresponding 

to 

number 

= 0 is North. Primary direction of 

subsequent values increases clockwise, by 
90º for 

BCD-2, 

by 45º for 

BCD-3, 

by 22.5º 

for 

BCD-4

C

 - the frame around individual relay status 

"buttons" indicates their grouping.

D

 - relays within the group don't have 

individual names, only the unused 

free

 relay has its own name (consequently, if 

BCD-4

 type is 

selected, there is no NAME row at all).

1-of-N Type

The menu window for 

1-of-N

 is similar:

According to the switching rule for 

1-of-N 

group, when 

1-of-N 

is selected in 

Menu→System→ARXCx, the first relay is 
automatically switched on. Contrary to 

BCD-N

, individual relays in 

1-of-N 

group do 

have individual names, as they can be used 
for individual Presets.
