is connected and hard power switch is on).

The backlit indicators will identify the operating status (master, backup, client, and so
on) of the unit.

USB port is provided for easy show loading to or from a USB storage device.

Step 4:

20 buttons are configurable from the Eos Configuration Utility (ECU). They are set to
a default configuration. The label strips for these buttons are removable and
reversible. Any changes to the button configuration can be written on the opposite

Start Up

After connecting power to the unit, press the soft power button on the front of the console.

By default, the RPU will boot into the Ion environment as a primary. If you wish to designate your
RPU as something other than a primary, you must exit the Ion environment and choose a different
designation from the Eos Configuration Utility welcome screen.
