EASy IP EAS Network Receiver - Operation Manual
10
Application of the EAS Network Receiver
When the EAS Network Receiver is used in conjunction with one or more EAS Encoder/
Decoders, the instrument will:
•
Provide reception of radio stations that are too distant for direct reception by the EAS
Encoder/Decoder.
•
Provide a means to hold EAS messages in a queue, thus preventing the loss of messages
due to simultaneous reception from radio stations.
•
Provide a means to expand the maximum amount of monitoring assignments that a single
EAS Encoder/Decoder can handle.
•
Allow multiple EAS Encoder/Decoders to use the same EAS Network Receiver.
•
Allow multiple EAS Network Receivers to contact the same EAS Encoder/Decoder.
•
Monitor the same stations as the EAS Encoder/Decoder rear panel inputs for redundancy
in fringe reception areas.
When the EAS Network Receiver is used without an EAS Encoder/Decoder, the EAS Network
Receiver’s internal logs can be:
•
Used to verify the operation of EAS sources.
•
Connected as a subscriber on a Cable or IPTV system, or as a listener to a broadcast
station for proof-of-performance validation.
