Introduction
The ER-A771 inter-register communication (IRC) system consists of one master machine and
up to 15 satellite machines which are all interconnected by the local area network (LAN) to
provide data transmission among them. This system allows the manager to exercise centralized
control over the satellites through the master.
• One of the satellites may be used as a back-up master.
