+The ``recv == Device("LTS/RECV/1")`` device controls the RCUs, the LBA antennas, and HBA tiles. Central to its operation are the masks (see also :ref:`attribute-masks`):
 
-- The ``RCU_mask_RW`` attribute is an array of ``bool[N_RCUs]``. It controls which RCUs will actually be configured, when fields referring to RCUs are set.
-- The ``Ant_mask_RW`` attribute is an array of ``bool[N_RCUs][N_Antennas_per_RCU]``. It controls which antennas will actually be configured, when fields referring to antennas are set.

 Typically, ``N_RCUs == 32``, and ``N_Antennas_per_RCU == 3``.
 
 SDP
