What Is a Master
Configurator?
The master configurator of an Advantys STB island controls the configuration data
for all of the I/O modules during its reservation time (See Fields on the Master
Configurator Web Page, p. 80). The configuration master must run the Advantys
configuration software. The configuration master can connect to either the fieldbus
(Ethernet) interface (See Fieldbus (Ethernet) Port, p. 26) or the CFG port (See The
CFG Interface, p. 33) on the STB NIP 2212.
The configuration master of an Advantys STB island can be a:
local host that resides on the same Ethernet LAN as the island
remote host that communicates with the Ethernet LAN on which the island
resides
device connecting to the STB NIP 2212, serially, via the CFG port
The master configurator is identified on the Master Configurator web page as
follows:
A master configurator running over the network is identified by its IP address.
A configuration master connecting to the CFG port is specified as serial (See
Fields on the Master Configurator Web Page, p. 80).
A master configurator will pre-empt configuration mastery for the Advantys STB
island from any other configurator during its reservation time.
Note: The master configurator of an Advantys STB island must be set up on the
Master Configurator web page.
