V 1.0
Nodes receive their operational power and network communication from Network Hubs.
Network Hubs should be strategically placed throughout the building. Individual nodes will typ-
ically have relatively short wire runs, with longer wire runs from hub to hub. As nodes are added,
the network simply loops from hub to hub expanding the system as necessary.
NAVIGATOR NETWORK COMPONENTS
The network is comprised of the following components:
• Control 2 — The C2 is the network master.
• Network Hub(s) — Network Hubs distribute network data and provide power to nodes.
Each hub has its own power supply.
• Network Nodes — Every Audio Keypad, Audio Matrix, MagicPad, and Relay Controller
is a network node. Network Nodes are given a unique address via a DIP switch. Each
node type performs a specific task.
• Wire — The wire is the largest single component of the system. It is critical to the
reliability of the system that the wire be properly installed.
