Hotsync Indications
Once the Hotsync function is enabled the process is fully automatic. There are some
indicators on the RCT 5023-G Controller card that
indicate status.
Hotsync RESTORE
– LED 1
This LED is illuminated when Hotsync is switched ON.
When Hotsync is restoring data to a module this LED
will turn yellow. If Hotsync is deactivated this LED is
OFF.
Hotsync SAVE
– LED 2
This LED is illuminated when Hotsync is switched ON.
When Hotsync is saving data from a module this LED
will turn yellow. If Hotsync is deactivated this LED is
OFF.
Note
Hotsync is a utility designed to automatically maintain a
system which is switched on and operational and
makes the assumption that any hardware which is
inserted into the system will need the settings restored
back into the new module. If there is ever the situation
where you would like to replace a card but retain the
settings stored in this card then please follow the
procedure below.
1. Observe
LED 1 and LED 2
on the RCT 5023-G Controller, if ON Hotsync is
enabled. Disable this function in the GUI and confirm this LED is
OFF
2. Install the new card (hot plug
– no need to power down)
3. Switch Hotsync back on using the GUI,
LED 1 and LED 2
will switch back ON
4. The setting stored within the new module will be preserved and will automatically
Hotsync into the backup file.
Note.
Some older Series 5000 cards will not
support the new Hotsync feature. Modules that
are not supported are identified in the GUI when the Hotsync
function is enabled.
Any modules identified will require
re-programming with the latest
revision of firmware so this feature is
supported. Please contact your
authorized dealer or LYNX Technik
directly for further assistance.
