CHAPTER 7: CONFIGURATIONS 97
Redundant Configuration
These configurations are simply more complex configurations, and might be used to ensure
redundancy; every UMT is configured to another, in case of individual system failure.
The procedure outlined below must be followed to ensure this configuration functions
properly:
− After installation, all UMTs should undergo a FUNC reset to clear the database. See
Reset Unit under Paragon II Front Panel Display and Controls in Chapter 2 for more
information on clearing the database. This procedure should be performed starting from
the third-tier device down to the Base Unit.
− Execute the FUNC reset in the following order: UMT-3A → UMT-3B → UMT-2A →
UMT-2B → UMT-Base 1 → UMT-Base 2.
− Whenever a third-tier UMT is replaced, all of the second-tier and base UMTs should
undergo a FUNC reset.
− Whenever a second-tier UMT is replaced, all of the base UMTs should undergo a FUNC
reset.
− Whenever a base UMT is replaced, only the new UMT should undergo a FUNC reset.
