Add a Control Unit into a TLON Network

When adding a new Control Unit to an "existing" system, the same system software (S/W)
version must be used in all Control Units. Often the new Control Unit has a newer version
than the existing Control Units. Normally the latest version is recommended to be used, i.e.
the Control Units in the "existing" system have to be upgraded. As an alternative, it may
possible to download an earlier S/W version in the new Control Unit.
Important Note: When the control unit is supplied with main board 5012 or MMI 5015
board, the lowest S/W version is 2.10.4.
Both options are described in chapter "Download Software (System Firmware)", page 102.
The following procedures to be followed to add a new Control Unit to an existing system:
1. Open the current project in TLON Manager.
2. Add one Control Unit and install (download) as shown in section 18.3.3 above,
refer to the TLON technical manual for more details.
3. Open the SSD for the current system in EBLWin. Add one Control Unit (and the
units connected to it).
4. Download the new SSD according to chapter "Software Installation and SSD
Download", page 91.
18.3.5

Merge Two TLON Networks

1. Ensure the system properties identical in the two systems.
2. Ensure that no presentation numbers in the network system are the same.
3. Select one of the systems as the starting point, for example the largest system,
and add the control units and all other units from the other system.
Note: Two or more presentation numbers (Zone or Zone-Address) in the systems must not
be the same.
