Configuration
Configuration Steps
-
Initial setup: Configure the on-call schedule, tags, and communication ports on the primary station (designated as "Main station").
-
Enable redundancy on both stations:
- Go to Configuration > Options > Redundancy tab
- Check Active with the station
- Enter the computer name or IP address of the partner station
-
Main station: Check the Main station checkbox on the primary unit only.
-
Communication protocol: Select TCP/IP and modify the port number if necessary to avoid conflicts with other applications.
-
Synchronization settings: Leave the following options unchecked initially:
- Synchronization at launching
- Synchronization on most recent configuration
- Alarm synchronization (only needed when the supervisor runs on one station)
-
Remote configuration of the redundant station: Use File > Open to enable remote configuration, then select Parameters, Supervision, and Groups & Teams.
-
Define communication ports on the redundant station.
-
Enable synchronization: Once redundancy is established, activate the previously unchecked synchronization options.
Expected Status
Under normal conditions, all three LEDs should display green on both stations. Upon main station failure, the redundant station becomes active automatically.
