Buddy Assignment
In a dual-sensor system, the Main sensor assumes control of the Buddy sensor after the Buddy sensor is
assigned to the Main sensor. Configuration for both sensors can be performed through the Main
sensor's interface.
Main and Buddy sensors must be assigned unique IP addresses before they can be used on the
same network. Before proceeding, connect the Main and Buddy sensors one at a time (to avoid
an address conflict) and use the steps outline in Running a Dual-Sensor System (page 30) to
assign each sensor a unique address.
When a sensor is acting as a Buddy, it is not discoverable and its web interface is not
accessible.
