Network Status

Click the Network button and select the ETH tab

The status of the LUMO-CPU-ETH
controller’s two Ethernet ports is
displayed in this panel.

ETH controller must be set using the on-
board web page. See

on page 18 for

detailed instructions.

The Ethernet Link Redundancy status is
reported in this panel.

In LUMO, this feature is always set to
Active Backup.

The two ethernet interfaces are
bonded together and configured
with the same IP address.

In the event that the primary inter-
face fails, network traffic is automat-
ically switched over to the backup
interface

The MAC (Media Access Control) address is reported in the data box

The MAC address is not user-configurable.

Data Restoration

Many of the LUMO-series cards that can be installed in the LUMO frame are complex and have a
lot of data stored on-board related to their configuration and parameter values. The LUMO-CPU-
ETH controller provides a backup of this data, which can be restored to the card when needed.
This is valuable if the card is inadvertently reconfigured, or is replaced after failure with a new
card of the same type. The saving of the current data into the controller’s memory, and restoring
the data onto the LUMO-series card, can be done manually or automatically.

For manual operation:

Click the Restore Point button and view the Cards tab.

The tab show a list of the slots available in the frame, with a check box, name, and status box for
each.

The LUMO frame uses slots 1 to 9.

Click the check box to activate the Data Restore feature for the card in that slot,
