To replace the faulty unit and assign the new one to the configuration of the faulty
one, do the following:
1. Disconnect the faulty unit from the C
OPERNICUS
server.
C
OPERNICUS
cannot any longer find the unit. A red line across the S

in
the C
OPERNICUS
explorer window indicates an inactive S

.
2. Connect the replacement unit to the C
OPERNICUS
server.
3. Set the S

address in ROSA.
The connected unit appears as a new unit.
4. Right-click on the new unit and select the menu item “Properties” to assign
the new unit.
One S

appears, having an unassigned status. When selecting this unit, all
inactive units of the same type are shown in the list box.
5. Select the inactive S
TELLAR
and press Assign.
The new unit is mapped into the inactive one and preserves the previous unit’s
configuration data stored by the C

server. The state of the new S

assigned the name and location of the inactive one which became faulty. You can
always press the button Unassign to undo the mapping.
6. Press the OK button.
The S

becomes active again.
Remote address Units with a remote address equal to 0 are not managed by a C
OPERNICUS
server. All
remote addresses of devices of the same RCDS type should be different. When you
try to change the status of an RCDS-compatible device with remote address 0, the
system recommends you to assign it another remote address.
