Stand-by switch

All devices have a stand-by switch, with which you can define the role of the
device within a Ring/Network coupling.
Depending on the device type, this switch is a DIP switch on the devices, or
else it is exclusively a software setting (Redundancy:Ring/Network
Coupling dialog). By setting this switch, you define whether the device has
the main coupling or the redundant coupling role within a Ring/Network
coupling. You will find details on the DIP switches in the "Installation" user
manual.
