BACKUP MODE 1 SELECT

This screen allows the user to select the mode of backup operation for Backup Channel 1
(Channel 0). The following backup modes are available:
•
Manual - allows the operator to force backups to occur even if prime channel
modems have not failed.
•
Non-Revertive - allows automatic backups to occur when prime channels fail, but
once a channel is backed up, it will remain backed up until manually reset by the
operator.
•
Revertive - allows automatic backups to occur when prime channels fail, and after a
channel is backed up, if the prime channel clears its error, the backup can become
available for another prime channel.
Programming steps:
1. Press <MANUAL> to configure Backup Channel 1 for manual operation. The switch
parameter table will be updated immediately.
2. Press <NON-REV> to configure Backup Channel 1 for automatic non-revertive operation.
The switch parameter table will be updated immediately.
3. Press <REVERT> to configure Backup Channel 1 for automatic revertive operation. The
