Layout or"as-built"drawing Application information showing branch wiring(T-taps), device types and their address are stored on disk for printing hard copy. The duty performed by the SIGA-CT1 and SIGA-CT2/MCT2 is de- termined by their sub-type code or"Personality Code".The code Installation is selected by the installer depending upon the desired application and is downloaded from the loop controller.
