Backup Scenarios
Console and console
Two consoles can be used to provide backup. Either can be configured as the primary or the
backup. If the primary console fails, the second console will take control with full show data intact.
This is a useful scenario for touring multi-user applications.
RPU and console
One RPU and one console can be used as a backup option. In this configuration, it is
recommended that you set the RPU as the primary and the console as the backup. In this scenario,
should the RPU go offline, you will still have the full functionality of the console user-interface at
your disposal.
RPU and RPU
Two RPUs may serve as primary and backup also. A backup system of this type can support many
client consoles at once, which you may turn on and off as needed without the need to reset to a
different master each time.
This application is ideal for permanent installations requiring synchronized backup.
