Server Redundancy Fast Failover Configuration
PlantScape Server and Client Configuration Guide 331
For example:
ADD PSW00 NETWORK_PSW RECOVER=ABORT IDLE=5 READ=10

From the command prompt, run the command hdwbld redun.hdw to
make the changes effective.

Use Start/Stop PlantScape Server to set the Server state to System Running.
Time Until Server Disconnects Station
Set the time that the server waits for data from a Station before disconnecting it.
The fast failover setting is 5; the normal setting is 30.
Note If you adjust this setting, you must also adjust the time until Stations fail over to
the backup network. If the settings are not properly synchronized, the Stations
will disconnect frequently.

File number (=0 to exit) ? 8
Use memory image [YES|NO|BOTH(default)] ? both
File 8 contains 1 records of size 4096 words
Record number (=0 to back up) ? 1
Word offset (=0 to back up) ? 82
Mode = 0 to back up
= 1 for INTEGER (int2)
= 2 for HEX (int2)
= 3 for ASCII (int2)
= 4 for F.P. (real)
= 5 for SET bit (int2)
= 6 for CLR bit (int2)
= 7 for LONG INTEGER (int4)
= 8 for LONG F.P. (dble) ? 1
INTEGER VALUE = 30 NEW VALUE = 5
Save value [YES|NO (default)] ? yes
Word offset (=0 to back up) ? 0
Record number (=0 to back up) ? 0
