1 If any frame housing your Kaleido-Modular-X input and output cards was not already in

operation, configure its Densité CPU-ETH2 controller’s networking parameters. See

Setting a Densité CPU-ETH2 Controller’s IP Address

on page 23.

2 For every frame housing Kaleido-Modular-X input or output cards, verify that the

Densité CPU-ETH2 controller’s automatic restore feature is enabled (see

Enabling the

CPU-ETH2 Automatic Restore Feature

, on page 24).
