Configuring the Hot Backup Triggers
Hot Backup is initiated by the slave MCU on detection of no response from the master MCU on a Keep Alive
operation. The Hot Backup triggers initiates the Hot Backup swap from Master to Slave when the selected
conditions on the Master MCU occur.
The guidelines for configuring Hot Backup Triggers are:
● Hot Backup triggers should be configured on both the Master and Slave MCUs.
● Hot Backup triggers are not synchronized between the Master and Slave MCUs.
The Hot Backup triggers are configured in the Hot Backup dialog for the Master MCU when the Hot Backup
feature is enabled.
To add the Hot Backup triggers to the Hot Backup configuration:
1 In RMX Manager, go to Setup > Hot Backup.
2 In the Hot Backup dialog, expand the Trigger Hot Backup Triggers.
A dialog opens with a list of event triggers displayed.
3 Select the appropriate Hot Backup Triggers check boxes:
Synchronization Status The status of the synchronization between the Master and Slave MCUs in the
Hot Backup configuration is indicated as:
• OK - Hot Backup is functioning normally, and the Master and Slave MCUs are
synchronized.
• Attempting - Hot Backup is attempting to synchronize the Master and Slave
MCUs.
• Fail - A failure occurred while trying to synchronize the paired MCUs.
• None - Hot Backup has not been enabled.
