3 RU SSPA Chassis Operations Manual
5.8 Auto Versus Manual Switching Mode
Normal operating mode for a RM SSPA in 1:2 redundant configuration is “Auto”. This
mode provides automatic detection of a SSPA fault and switchover to the operational
SSPA. The system is also protected from operator error; selecting a faulted SSPA is
not allowed. In situations when system maintenance must be performed, “Manual”
mode should be used. In “Manual” mode, the operator can select the online and
standby SSPA by pressing the “Unit1” key. The system will not provide automatic
switchover from a faulted SSPA, but rather will keep the selected SSPA online,
regardless of its state.
Note
: In order to function normally, all SSPAs in the system must utilize
the same switching mode.
5.9 Physically Rotating Transfer Switch
It is possible to physically rotate the shaft on the transfer switch to change the online
and standby amplifiers. This can be done in either manual or automatic mode.
In “Auto” mode, the system will prevent the user from putting faulted SSPA online. The
on-line SSPAs will keep trying to rotate the switch until the proper configuration is re-
stored.
If manual rotation is completed, the “Unit 1” LED of all system SSPA will change state
to reflect the new system configuration.
5.10 Parallel Port Special Functions
As with any redundant mode, each SSPA chassis will change some of its parallel I/O
functions to an alternative. See
Table 4-3
for details.
