Using Hot Backup Triggers

Hot Backup is initiated by the slave MCU on detection of no response from the master MCU on a "Keep
Alive" operation. The Hot Backup triggers initiates the Hot Backup swap from Master to Slave when the
selected conditions on the Master MCU occur.

Guidelines for Configuring the Hot Backup Triggers

● Hot Backup triggers should be configured on both the Master and Slave MCUs.
● Hot Backup triggers are not synchronized between the Master and Slave MCUs.
