Router Interface

Note

If the Karrera system has been configured with a router IP address but a con-
nection to the router has not been established, changing the IP address in
this menu will not make the Karrera system immediately try to connect to the
new router address. The Karrera system will automatically try to connect after
about 30 seconds using the entered router IP addresses.

Primary and Secondary Router Communications

The Karrera system will initially use the primary router IP address for com-
munications. If the primary control system fails to respond, the Karrera
system will attempt to use the secondary IP address for router communica-
tions, and if successful will continue using it in the future. If communica-
tions then is lost to the secondary control system, the Karrera system will
attempt to reestablish communications with the primary router control
system.
