In the context of a FairNET communication network, the A/M Button operator acts primarily as a broadcaster, continuously transmitting its output state. It therefore includes the pertinent networking properties of broadcast operators, namely the broadcast priority (critical or non-critical). The Remote A/M Button operator acts primarily as a receiver "tuned" to the continuous broadcasts of the A/M Button operator. It includes the pertinent networking properties of receiver operators, namely the maximum broadcast "deadtime".
