NOTICE
Possible loss of configuration changes
By clicking Apply, changes are applied to the active configuration and saved in the volatile memory of the
matrix. In the event of a sudden power failure, these changes are lost. To save changes permanently:
 save the configuration changes into the active configuration (Remote Save, see chapter 7.11.1,
page 274), save a predefined configuration (Save as…) (see chapter 7.11.2, page 275), or perform a
restart (see chapter 12.2.1, page 318).
NOTICE
A change in system-relevant parameters (e.g., change in the IP address) is immediately displayed in the
management software. To initialize system-relevant configuration changes on the matrix, the matrix must
be restarted. The restart of the matrix may take several minutes, and the matrix is not available during the
restart.
After changing the configuration of the system, we recommend to de
-register the primary controller board
and to boot the secondary controller board until the boot process is finished.
Configurations can be saved as a
file that can be stored independent of the matrix.
We recommend saving a matrix status every time when a configuration has been changed.

3. Make any edits in the configuration and system settings.
4. Click Apply to confirm the changes.
The changes are applied immediately as the current configuration running in the volatile memory of the
matrix.
5. Click Remote Save to save the configuration into the active configuration to the matrix.
6. Click Deactivate Edit Mode in the toolbar.
7. Click Save Status to save the matrix status (backup file).
