communications line, controls all output to video monitors, and reads
the monitor Bump Boxes.
- Bump Boxes - these units control each of the video screens.

a remote device. Any items required to display on a monitor must be programmed
to output to the appropriate remote device.

monitor(s). Priced condiments and modifiers are also supported.
The CVM system will support up to a maximum of 5 monitors. Menu items can
