Single Processor System
LightDesigner configurations with only a single processor will automatically resolve
processor number (identity) and IP settings when loaded onto a processor. No additional
setup is required.
Step 1:
Use removable media to load the LightDesigner configuration file.
Architectural Configuration” on page 60.
Alternatively you may load the
configuration file from a PC through the Ethernet port on the front of the
Paradigm ACP.
Multiple Processor System
Multiple processor systems require that you set each processor’s unique number (identity)
before loading a LightDesigner configuration file.
Step 1:
Set the processor number (identity) from the “Select New Settings” menu list
located in Assign Processor/IP menu. This action also selects processor IP
settings. Reference
“Assign Processor / IP”, page 43
.
Step 2:
Repeat
for all processors in the Paradigm system utilizing a unique
processor number for each.
Step 3:
Load the architectural configuration into all online processors in the system. Use
either a removable media device, upload from LightDesigner when connected to
Ethernet, or request it from another online processor.
