Basic Use Guidelines

Displays

The RPU can be used with either one or two DVI monitors, or one VGA and one DVI. You can
collapse or expand the CIA on the displays by engaging the scroll lock and pressing F5. If you are
using one monitor, you may find this feature useful in increasing the efficiency of your available
display area.

Net3 Services

By default, both Ion and the Ion RPU ship with all Net3 services enabled.

When used in a multi-console backup system, you must disabled Net3 services for the intended
backup device. If the RPU is the intended primary (recommended, see

Backup Scenarios, page

363

), some Net3 services must be disabled on the intended backup device (console or RPU).

You must disable the DHCP server and TFTP server. You must also change the SNTP server to
“client” to enable time synchronization between Ion devices. All of this is done using the Eos
Configuration Utility (See

Network Settings, page 340

and

Local Area Connection, page 340

).
