13.2.2.5 Redundancy Function
Extender modules with redundant ports for interconnect cables can be simultaneously operated with both
ports at a single matrix or a matrix Grid (from firmware version V04.00).
The ports labeled with
Link 1
at the extender modules is meant for the primary interconnection. If the
interconnection on CON Unit or CPU Unit side is interrupted due to any problem, the interconnection will be
automatically re-established through the second port labeled with
Link 2
.
For this kind of redundancy function, there is no need for any configuration of the matrix or the extender
modules.
If needed, you can manually switch between
Link 1
and
Link 2
at the CON Unit (see chapter 9.1.6,
page 307).
