Note: if a DPU is moved from one location to another where the IP Address
is different, the initialization file on the DPU CompactFlash needs to be
modified. Use the DPU4Setup utility to make the necessary changes. The
default setting on the utility is to automatically erase any configuration
databases. It is still advisable to set the Mode switch to ‘B’ before installing
the DPU in the new location to additionally guarantee that it will come up
cold.
Starting a Standalone DPU
Perform the following steps to ensure that a DPU is completely configured
before it is allowed to assume control. It is important that the DPU not be
placed in the Online State until it has been fully configured.
To start a standalone DPU:
1. Remove the CompactFlash from the DPU and inset it into a reader/writer
attached to a Workstation. Use the Workstation utility DPU4FSetup
program to initialize the CompactFlash. This utility will configure the IP
Address, Redundancy (select StandAlone), Network Speed/Duplex, and
Version of Software. Reinstall the CompactFlash in the DPU. Note: if
you select Primary instead of StandAlone, the DPU will not be able to go
into the online state unless a backup cable is installed.
2. Set front panel mode switches to “B” to demand a Cold startup.
3. Insert the DPU into the chassis slot and secure the DPU using the two
thumbscrews.
4. Insert the ‘A’ network cable into the top RJ45 connector and, if
available, the ‘B’ network cable into the second RJ45 connector.
5. Software release Version 4.0 required that either a backup cable (Metso #
050292) or jumper plug (Metso # 081388) is installed in the Backup
connector in order to come on line. In Version 4.1 the jumper plug is not
needed for a single DPU, if “StandAlone” Redundancy was selected in
the DPU4FSetup program.
6. Wait until the CP LED begins to blink Yellow/Green signifying that the
DPU is operational.
7. Return Mode switch to “F.”
8. Use the DPU4F Detailed Status Display to verify that the DPU is
operational.
9. Reload the DPU configuration using the maxDPUTools Download
Program from the maxSTATION.
