7.3.2. Replace Board

This section allows you to swap boards in your system for similar boards.

This is necessary in the unlikely event of hardware failure (due

to a power surge) or to expand channel count by replacing an 8 channel

analog board with a 24 channel board, for example.

When selecting the board to be replace it must be removed from the system.

The board that you are going to replace it with must be physically in the

system and disabled. Disable the board by going to the Boards setup page

and selecting the replacement boards configuration. When you have a possible

replacement candidate the Replace Board setup page will show a submit

button. If you do not a valid replacement configuration the button will

not be present and the text at the top of the page will explain why you

cannot do a replacement.

The act of replacing a board transfers all settings to the new board.

This includes channel ordering, channel names, and parameters specific

to the board type.
