Page 5: Cpu-Eth2 Enhanced Ethernet Controller Card
The DENSITÉ-CPU-ETH2 Controller supports all on-frame communication between cards, and incorporates a front control panel for local control and adjustment of the frame and installed cards. The CPU-ETH2 Controller serves as the communications port for control and alarm information entering and leaving the frame. In addition to all the features of the basic controller, the CPU-ETH2 controller features an Ethernet port for system-wide monitoring and control of DENSITÉ... -

The local control panel menu can also be used to enter these values: Hint: the first time you set up the CPU-ETH2 card, get the Network details from your IT manager and install them on the card using the menu. The card will then be easy to find using iControl applications. -
Page 14: Topic - Data Restoration
5.3.5 Topic – Data Restoration Many of the Densité-series cards that can be installed in the frame with the CPU-ETH2 controller are complex and have a lot of data stored on-board related to their configuration and parameter values. The CPU-ETH2 controller provides a backup of this data, which can be restored to the card when needed. -

The default values are shown underlined in the menu listing beginning on page 16. 5.3.7 Topic – Time management. The CPU-ETH2 controller is time-aware, and its internal clock can be updated via several mechanisms. Open the iControl Time panel. Time (UTC) The data boxes in this section display the time and date currently held in the card. -
Page 16: Topic - Alarms
The panel is organized in columns. Status/Name This contains an expandable tree listing all the alarms reported by this CPU-ETH2 controller. • Each alarm name includes an icon that shows its current status The Overall alarm and GSM contribution columns contain pulldown lists that allow the level of contribution of each individual alarm to the alarm named in the column heading to be set. - Page 17 At the bottom of the window are several other controls Copy to other cards Click this button to open a panel that allows the alarm configuration set for this card to be copied into other CPU-ETH2 controllers in other frames. •...
