Redundancy Configuration

Redundancy is available when two units are used to ensure reliable service in the event of failure
of a unit. The units are configured in Primary/Backup roles and communicate between each other
via serial cable (Part Number CA-0000011) connected to each unit's redundant port and via
Ethernet.
Other Unit's IP Address
Enter the IP address of the unit to be used in conjunction with this unit for redundant
functionality.
Mode
Select the mode of this receiver (Primary, Backup, Disabled). If two units are to be configured as
a redundant system, then one unit must be "Primary" and the other must be "Backup". Please note
that both units must be configured correctly (one as primary, the other as backup) in order for
redundancy to function correctly.
