5.2.2.5 CONFIG: Redun (Redundancy) Menus
1:1 Redundancy is an optional feature for the MBT-5000. When you attempt to select this menu
branch, but your MBT-5000 is configured as a standalone up/down converter system (e.g., a non-
redundant configuration, where a BUC is installed in Side A, and a BDC is installed in Side B) the
following message displays:
Redundancy is Disabled.
Otherwise, when selecting this menu branch and your MBT-5000 is properly configured as an up
or down redundant converter system (e.g., where either two BUCs or two BDCs are installed),
the Redundancy menu branch appears as follows:
Redundancy:
Disable/Enable Force
Use the ◄ ► arrow keys to select Disable/Enable or Force, and then press ENTER.
5.2.2.5.1 Redundancy Mode: Disable/Enable
Redundancy Mode:
Disable Enable
Use the ◄ ► arrow keys to Enable or Disable redundant operations, and then press ENTER.
5.2.2.5.2 Redundancy Mode: Force
Press ENTER to Force
Converter A to Standby
As the display instructs, press ENTER to force the redundant unit into standby mode.
