Back Ordered Shipments or Additional Equipment Purchases

Back ordered Prelude components, or newly ordered additional equipment
will ship with default settings that will need to be changed to integrate with
the rest of your system. Adding components to a Prelude system will
involve:

‰

Install the new components in racks, provide power, and connect them
to the Prelude network.

‰

Resolve any duplicate IP addresses for the new components using Net-
Config.

‰

If you wish, you can name the new devices using their web pages.

‰

If there are new Concerto boards or Acappella frames, reconfigure the
frame(s) for the new components. New router configuration files will
then need to be created and sent to all control panels. You may also
need to edit existing control panel configuration files to work with the
new frames, and then send them to the existing control panels.

‰

Ensure compatible software resides on all system components.

‰

Send appropriate panel configurations to the new control panels, or
create new control panel configuration files and send them.

‰

Test system operation.
