Sixty-Device Remote-Control System for NBC's Television Central Project
A large remote-control system, interfacing 24 studios to 60 machines (videotape and film), was recently installed at the NBC New York Studios as part of the Television Central Project. A time-sharing scheme was selected to avoid the high cost and complexity of a hard-wired approach. Individual buses for each studio eliminate common-mode failures. Any machine can be assigned to any studio without conflict, and machine status can be monitored continuously.
