Setting the Rack Number
To be able to differentiate between the two subsystems, the CPU must be able to
output the rack numbers. A CPU has rack number 0 and the others have rack
number 1. Set the rack number to the synchronization module. There is a
miniature slide switch on the module for this and it permits 3 points. The rack
number is applied during POWER ON and a manual memory reset.
The partner module must have different points for the CPU to startup properly, this
means the synchronization module must have the rack number 0 and the other
must have rack number 1. The two synchronization modules in a CPU must have
the same rack number.
