Default Mexico Approach Plates

Have an interview coming up soon and wanted to know what the "2" meant in the name of some of the Mexican Approach Plates. For example...

VOR DME 2 RWY 15

What does the "2" stand for??? I've also seen "1" and I can't figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's just a way to have more than one VOR approach to the same runway. Often the VOR/DME 1 RWY 22 (as an example) will be a simple teardrop or procedure turn approach, and the VOR/DME 2 RWY 22 will be a DME arc with several transitions off of different airways. It just provides more options in cases where they can't combine the two procedures into one approach.
