6.2 Exchanging Boards
Exchanging boards is very easy with MVS600x: you may move the boards to other slots, add a
board, take a board out of the rack and put another one into it. When the system is restarted, the
hardware wizard automatically detects where MVS600x boards are present and adapts its
configuration accordingly.
Most parameters are stored in a file on the PC and read by the MVS600x board at startup. This
way, the settings will automatically be correct after boards are exchanged.
Note: On the MVS3x0 boards, these parameters where stored in a SEEPROM.
The MVS keys are still stored on each board, in a SEEPROM, as previously. This means that you
must set these keys correctly to allow the software to run.
Recommendation: KeyUtil is adapted, use version 3.0 or higher.
