Transfer SOI Information Using Broadcast Mode (Special NCS Task 2)

DESCRIPTION

This procedure enables an NCS to send SOI Information electronically

to net members wherever updating by physical connection of ANCD to

ANCD proves to be impossible or impractical. The Broadcast Mode

requires approximately two minutes to transmit one time period of a

battalion SOI extract. The procedure includes a polling feature which

allows the NCS to determine by automatic query if up to 16 net

operators (designated by special ID numbers) did or did not receive the

SOI information sent by Broadcast.
