Replacing the STB NIP 2311 Module
Introduction
The device replacement procedure anticipates the simple replacement of a NIM on
an Ethernet network with another with the same part number (STB NIP 2311). Both
NIMs must have the same firmware version and you must configure the replacement
NIM with the same settings as the original. When the NIM configuration is saved to
the removable memory card (see page 53), you can replace the NIM and use the
same configuration simply by reinserting the card in the new NIM.
Replacement Process
Replace an STB NIP 2311 module with another containing the same version
firmware:
Stage Description
1 Save your customized island configuration to a removable memory card, as
described below.
NOTE: We recommend that you save customized island configurations to a
removable memory card whenever you edit the configuration. If you have to
replace the STB NIP 2311 NIM before you have copied the island configuration
to the card, the STB NIP 2311 may not be operational (and the island
configuration settings may not be accessible) when you switch from one NIM to
another.
2 Remove the existing STB NIP 2311 NIM.
3 Install a replacement STB NIP 2311 module into the island.
4 Insert the memory card in the replacement NIM.
