Hot Standby Redundancy

Note: If Hot Standby or Media Redundancy are not required, proceed to Section 3:Commissioning using
PACMotion VFD Studio. Configuring Media Redundancy is described in 2.3 Media Redundancy
Configuration.
Hot Standby CPU Redundancy allows a critical application or process to continue operating should a
failure occur in any single component.
Hot Standby Redundancy requires a secondary controller. In a rack-less system, the controllers stay
synchronized and exchange data using the LAN 3 Ethernet ports.
