3.4. Module Information

The following information is recorded by the TMR Expander Interface Module and made available to
the TMR Processor.

3.5. System Initialisation File

This module requires a simple entry in the system INI configuration. Within this entry, the System
Configurator allows the connection of expansion chassis to each port on the expander interface. There
is no further configuration required. For details of editing the system INI configuration, please refer to
PD-8082.

In the system INI configuration, the module should be defined in both the primary position and the
secondary (hot swap spare) position. This is required to enable the module to be hot swapped. The
chassis allocation only needs to be set up in one of the positions; it will be automatically copied to the
other position.
