ODU Selection
If you use ODUs in redundancy, you may toggle this page between the Online and Offline units.
Use the drop-down list to select CSAT #1 or CSAT #2, and then click [Select ODU]. A message
identifies the currently active unit as ‘ONLINE’ in the right-hand column of this section.
Force 1:1 Switch
If you use ODUs in redundancy, and the selected unit is currently the Online unit, click [Force 1:1
Switch] to force a switchover so the unit will then be in Offline (standby) mode. The command is
only valid for the Online unit in a 1:1 pair.
