13.2 REPEAT PULSES
The Type 400 Controller may be linked to other traffic controllers so that a pulse
which occurs, or a pulse which is created by a condition occurring, in one controller
may be repeated to the other. The function of the pulse when received will depend on
the method of control of the intersection.
One function of the facility is to maintain traffic flow through closely associated
intersections. When a certain phase gains ROW, a pulse is transmitted to the linked
controller to demand a phase along the same route.
Special conditioning is used to provide an output from the controller under pre-defined
conditions, e.g. during Red/amber or amber leaving of a particular phase.
13.3 OTU LINKING
The Type 400 Controller may be linked to other controllers in a UTC scheme when it
is required to share an outstation transmission unit (OTU) between more than one
controller. In this case the link will only be for connection between the OTU and the
other controllers. The operation of the controller will have no effect on the link.
