7.6 Loading configuration from the PC to the station
You can use the 'Download site' function to load the configuration of one
'Site'
from the Cerberus-Engineering-Tool on the PC into the
'Station'.
NOTICE
Different network configuration in 'Cerberus-Engineering-Tool' and networked
'Site'
When the selection displayed for 'Download site' is manually modified, in special
cases
1
it may be necessary to reset a 'Station' to the factory setting as well as a
'Initialize station'.
●
Do not modify the selection displayed for 'Download site' in normal cases.
●
Check the sequence when loading different configuration states in special
cases
1
.
●
After any change of the network configuration, make sure that all 'Stations' in
the 'Site' for the 'Download site' procedure are selected and can be accessed.
●
Temporarily update non-accessible 'Stations' to the latest status of the global
network configuration prior to integration in the network.

Examples of special cases:
●
A 'Station' will be added to a networked 'Site' and a new network configuration
will be loaded upon initialization of this 'Station', different from the global
network configuration of the connected 'Site'.
●
During the 'Download site' procedure a 'Station' is temporarily not accessible.
Both examples can result in the 'Station' no longer starting after the 'Download site'
procedure and the above actions having to be carried out.
NOTICE
Flooding zone is not in the 'Quiet' state
If a flooding zone is not in the 'Quiet' state and you load a configuration to the
station at the same time, this may cause all Person Machine Interfaces with
corresponding visibility of the station to not display the state of the flooding zone
correctly on the display or to not display it at all after the restart. In this case, the
Person Machine Interfaces show the state of the flooding zone correctly again
once the flooding zone has returned to the 'Quiet' state. However, the
extinguishing terminal for the respective flooding zone displays the correct state
of the flooding zone at all times.
●
Only load the configuration to the station when the flooding zone is in the
'Quiet' state.
If you use more than one network cards on the PC, observe the information
contained in chapter 'IP settings for several network cards [
