6. IRRInet-M – Master/Slave configuration (1)
IRRInet-M supports 3 modes of operations
RTU (loaded with IRRI 7.0 Master)
Performing all irrigation functions (IRRIV Capabilities)
Reporting to the ICC, Via the MDLC Cloud
Stand Alone (loaded with IRRI 7.0 Master)
Performing all irrigation functions as a stand-alone unit
when the system is configured without an ICC
Remote I/O (loaded with IRRI 7.0 Slave, PRIS or MDLC)
Serving as a Distributed I/O for another unit (Master)
Please note!
In the PAST, whenever using SCORPIO or IRRIcom, it was ALWAYS as a Remote I/O to a Master IRRInet…
With IRRInet-M, this is NOT a MUST anymore!
Use the Slave option only when needed!!

30. IRRIcom Link is NOT supported (hard-coded timing in IRRIcom prevents)!
Q: I need to add IRRInet-ACE, but this unit MUST operate the legacy Scorpio, IRRIcom or Impact. What do I do? A: Below…
Please note!
The IRRInet-M will route the PRIS commands to the legacy units.
It may serve, at the same time, as a Slave unit as well.

33. Basic design guidelines, per radio link, to consider…
All radios must be configured to the same channel spacing (12.5 or 25Khz)
Warm-up time and channel monitor resolution should be equal in all radio types
and configured to the worst case time (longest).
When adding new IRRInet-M to a radio link all existing units’ warm-up time should
be increased to 400msec.
The combination of RTU and Radio audio response must be either Flat or
Pre-emphasis De-Emphasis across ALL radios.
Mobile radios, like CM200, CDM750 should be configured to Flat audio mode.
Portable radios, like HT750, GP320 are by default configured to Pre/De-Emphasis.
They should be reconfigured to Flat audio mode if this is required for the radio link.
Type of radio network protocol – MDLC or INTRAC (PRIS) should ALWAYS be
considered and appropriate radio path study performed.
