Remote Addressable DANIS/DLS (RADD)

Remote Addressable DANIS/DLS (RADD)

The Remote Addressable DANIS/DLS (RADD) is used in conjunction with the DAC6000 to provide system maintenance operations and greater reliability in the networked access control system. The RADD supplies real-time repetitive messages such as polling and code downloads to the set-top box population.

The system scales through the addition of multiple RADDs, each managing similar real-time tasks on a segregated portion of the network. The DAC schedules activities on the RADD for a selectable number of hours allowing the RADD to continue its execution of tasks even if the DAC is running a system backup. The RADD utilizes the Sun NETRA platform running Solaris OS. It can be monitored remotely using a JAVA™ enabled console.
