Method and system for operating a receiving circuit for multiple types of input channel signals
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- receiving a first receiving circuit module input signal at a first receiver module of a receiving circuit module;
communicating the first receiving circuit module input signal to an encoder of the receiving circuit module;
encoding the first receiving circuit module input signal into an encoded first receiving circuit module signal at the encoder;
generating an output signal at the receiving circuit module corresponding to the encoded first receiving circuit module signal;
generating a control signal from a monitoring system located remotely from and monitoring the first receiver module and a second receiver module;
communicating the control signal to the receiving circuit module through a network connection;
receiving a second receiving circuit module input signal at the second receiver module of the receiving circuit module;
communicating the second receiving circuit module input signal to the encoder in response to the control signal;
encoding the second receiving circuit module input signal to form an encoded second receiving circuit module signal;
changing the output signal of the receiving circuit module to correspond to the encoded second receiving circuit module signal in response to the control signal; and
communicating the output signal to a remote facility.

Abstract
A receiving circuit module for receiving different types of channel signals includes a housing having a first input, a second input and an input-output port disposed therein and a controller receiving a control signal. The controller switches between the first input and second output and generates an output signal corresponding to the first input or the second input in response to the control signal.
