ANUAL

The Operating mode of the Comtech EF Data Redundant Switch Unit (RSU-5060) can be
set via a command to the ONLINE CSAT. The RSU-5060 initializes to the AUTO mode
when power is first applied.

• In AUTO mode the RSU-5060 monitors the state of the two CSATs and will

automatically switch the OFFLINE unit online if the ONLINE unit faults.


• In MANUAL mode, the RSU-5060 will only switch the position of the Tx and Rx

transfer switches when commanded to do so via either the RTG= command or via
Pin V on the ‘M&C Control’ connector (J5) on the RSU-5060. The user sets
AUTO mode by sending a ‘1’ in the data field and MANUAL mode with a ‘0’ in
the data field.

The User can cause the RSU-5060 Redundant Switch Unit to switch the position of both
the Tx and Rx transfer switches using this command.

• If the RSU-5060 is in AUTO mode, the command will only cause a switchover if

the OFFLINE unit is currently UNFAULTED.


• If the RSU-5060 is in MANUAL mode, the command will cause a switchover

independent of the state of the OFFLINE unit.
