MAV-GUI and MAV Module Connections
MAV-GUI Connections - continued
MAV GUI Dual Network Connectors
This allows the 2 network ports on the MAV-GUI to be used to connect to the mainframe. The
panel will use one of the pair, referred to as “Primary” and “Secondary”.
If the Primary link is broken the panel will switch over to using the Secondary link. Once
working on the Secondary link, the panel will only return to the Primary link when the
secondary link is broken (and the primary link is reconnected) or the panel is rebooted.
Only one of the links is in use at any one time. The switch over time is typically less than 10
fields.
The same rules for clustering apply to both links, so clustered MAV-GUIs should have all their
network links connected to the same NET Fin; unless the mainframe is in "16 Port Switch"
mode, in which case any port will be OK for the panels to share data across the cluster correctly.
The working state of the links is shown in the Logged off "Panel Config" menu and in the
Logged in "ENG Config - Status Monitor/Panel" menu.
