4.System Configuration verified.

5.System interrogated and initialized.

6.Presence of other CPU detected and RCMs initialized.

7.Complete user program verification.

8.Synchronize with the Redundant CPU.

When powering up the unit configured as the Secondary Unit in a Redundant system and no remote unit (the Primary Unit) is detected, the Secondary Unit will wait up to 15 seconds to see if the remote unit will also power up. If after 15 seconds, the remote unit has not completed its power up sequence, then the Secondary Unit will assume that no remote unit is present. If at this time, the Secondary Unit transitions to RUN mode, it will do so as a stand-alone unit.

If the unit configured as the Primary Unit completes its power-up sequence before the remote unit (the Secondary Unit) the Primary Unit does not wait for the remote unit to complete its power-up sequence. If the Primary Unit is setup to transition to RUN on power-up (that is, was powered-down in RUN mode), it will transition to a stand-alone unit without waiting for the remote unit. When the remote unit completes its power-up sequence, it will attempt to establish communications with the Primary Unit and will synchronize if also transitioning to RUN mode.

In either case, if one CPU fails to notify the other CPU that it is either present or powering up, this CPU will proceed to power-up as a stand-alone CPU and will become the active CPU. The other CPU will resynchronize once the power-up sequence is complete.

Note

In applications where it is desired to have a fully redundant system upon power-up, the Secondary Unit must complete power-up first but no more than 15 seconds before the Primary Unit. The way to be sure that this happens is to apply power to the Secondary Unit first.

Incompatible Configurations

When two units have incompatible configurations stored (for example, both units configured for PRIMARY or differing blocks for data transfer), then only one of the units can go to RUN mode. If the other unit attempts to go to RUN mode or both units attempt to go to RUN mode at the same time, a FATAL incompatible configuration fault will be logged.

If one unit is configured for CPU Redundancy and the other has no configuration, then both units may go to RUN mode at the same time but they will not be synchronized and only the unit that has been configured will drive outputs.
