4 Active Primary – no secondary detected
5 Inactive Primary
6 Inactive Secondary
3.8.1 Single Host Device
If the 455U redundant pair are connected to a single host device, they should be connected
via RS485 - both 455U units will hear all data messages, but only the active 455U unit will
send messages.
3.8.2 Redundant Host Pair
If the host device is duplicated as a redundant pair, with an individual host connected to an
individual 455U, then RS232 should be used - the 455U will receive and send serial
messages, however only the active 455U will transmit via the radio.
3.8.3 Dual Redundanct Control Connection
The DIO channels on the two units are connected - this connection forms the Dual
Redundant Control Connection.
