What does the network control module do?

• A. Displays live data on the keypad
• B. Stores calibration data for the STYX module
• C. Organizes the SAMMs to selectively draw samples of air from the remote pipe work (IAW the user configuration)
• D. Provides remote software updates to SAMMs

Answer: (C)

Coordinating sampling across multiple SAMMs according to the user’s configuration is the network control module’s job. It acts as the central coordinator, taking the user’s sampling plan and translating it into precise commands sent to each SAMM. It decides which sampling lines to open, when to sample, and at what rate, so that air is drawn from the correct remote pipe sections and the data collected across the network is consistent and correctly timed. Display of live data on a keypad, storage of calibration data for another module, and remote software updates are handled by other parts of the system, not this central coordinator.
