Using a Quantum 984 HSBY System

Keyswitch Override and Run Mode

Keyswitch and

You may choose to override the keyswitch on the front panel of the CHS 110

Run

modules for security or convenience. If you override the keyswitch, the command

 

register becomes the means for taking the CHS 110 modules on or offline.

 

By default, the keyswitch override is disabled. The Hot Standby dialog allows you to

 

enable it.

Keyswitch

 

 

If you enable the keyswitch override, the Offline/Running operating mode of the

Override

controllers at startup is determined by the values you set to bits 14 and 15 of the

 

command register. These bits are represented as the Run Mode for controller A and

 

B (depends on designation slide switch). Remember, that when the keyswitch

 

override is enabled you can not initiate a program update (program xfer) at the CHS

 

110 module in the Standby rack.

 

As long as the keyswitch override is disabled, the settings for the Run Mode can be

 

ignored.

 

 

 

 

 

CAUTION

 

 

 

 

 

Keyswitch Override Hazard

 

 

If you use the Zoom screen or RDE to enable the keyswitch override

 

 

while the Hot Standby system is running, the Primary controller

 

 

immediately reads bits 14 and 15 to determine its own state and the

 

 

state of the Standby.

 

 

Failure to follow this precaution can result in injury or equipment

 

 

damage.

 

 

 

 

If both bits are set to 0, a switchover occurs and the former Primary CPU goes

 

offline. The new Primary CPU continues to operate.
