Configure DMC-CPU Compatibility Mode
DMC-CPU compatibility mode provides backward compatibility between the DMC-CPU3
card and the DMC-CPU card without the need for additional programming. DMC-CPU
compatibility mode must be enabled when either of the following occurs:
• A DMC-CPU3 card replaces a DMC-CPU card in an existing installation.
• A CPU3 switcher (DM-MD8X8-CPU3[-RPS], DM-MD16X16-CPU3[-RPS], or
DM-MD32X32-CPU3[-RPS]) replaces a non-CPU3 switcher (DM-MD8X8[-RPS],
DM-MD16X16[-RPS], or DM-MD32X32[-RPS]) in an existing installation.
NOTE: In order for DM CAT (legacy) and DM Fiber (legacy) input and output cards
to operate with a CPU3 switcher, DMC-CPU compatibility mode must be enabled.
The SIMPL Windows program of a CPU3 switcher cannot be used to manage the
cards.
To configure DMC-CPU compatibility mode:
1. Do either of the following:
• Enable DMC-CPU compatibility mode by selecting the DMC-CPU
Compatibility Mode checkbox.
• Disable DMC-CPU compatibility mode by deselecting the DMC-CPU
Compatibility Mode checkbox (default setting).
2. Click the Apply Settings & Reboot button to save the setting and reboot the
system.
A dialog box appears asking for confirmation to reboot the switcher.
