Up to 256 nodes are supported by the MACRO protocol. Sixteen (16) nodes can be interfaced to one master, and up to 16 masters can reside on the ring. This type of multi-mastering capability is unique to MACRO. 

When TYPE 1 MACRO is used, there may be up to 14 slave nodes contained in 16 masters. This allows for up to 224 nodes to be contained in a single MACRO Ring.
