o provide continued console operation in the event of failure of the main processor, processor redundancy can be
specified for consoles of 16 channels and above – redundant processing can not be fitted to the 8-channel frame as there
is insufficient space to accommodate the additional hardware.
When the redundancy option is specified duplicate SBC and audio DSP processors will be fitted to the console’s backup
I/O panel.
W
hen processor redundancy is used in combination with the Alpha-Link LIVE-R, MORSE stagebox or RIO I/O unit,
control of all sources and destinations can be seamlessly transfered to the backup processor should the master processor
fail.
Similar redundant switching can be achieved when using Alpha-Link Live units by the inclusion of optional MADI fibre
changeover switches.
Because there are many different ways that the I/O options can be configured to operate with the redundant processor,
consoles that require redundant processing should always be specified in consultation with an SSL representative.
Redundant systems will always include commissioning by an SSL engineer.
