Abstract
A communications system central controller which regulates the access of a plurality of remote units to a single communications channel is disclosed. The central controller establishes a period of time wherein a remote unit may request service following the transmission of another remote unit. The central controller interprets the remote unit request for service, stores the request, and grants permission for the remote unit to transmit its message in accordance with the priority in the storage means. The grant of service is revoked by the central controller after a predetermined period of time following the conclusion of the remote unit transmission.
