Backup Amplifier

This article describe the Backup Request feature. This optional function may be used together with the Backup Amplifier function.

The Backup Request is a feature to ensure an even faster switch-over if the defect amplifier has a power issue.


Assigning Backup Request to an Control Input

To assign the Backup Request to an control input on a backup amplifier:

  1. In Components view, open Input Actions.
  2. In System, identify the backup amplifier be used, and expand to Amplifier > Control Inputs > CI_X.
  3. Drag Backup Request to the Control Input.
Assigning Backup Request to an Control Input


Configuration on backup amplifier

Assigning Backup request from a specific amplifier

  1. Drag Backup Request to the desired Control Input.
  2. Select the desired amplifier in Amplifier.
  3. Press Done.
Assigning Backup Request to an Control Input


In this example the backup amplifier will receive a Backup Request from ENA2200 1.

Parameter details

Backup Request - parameter details


Amplifier: The amplifier that this Control Input will trigger the backup functionality.

Configuration on amplifier that is being backed up

You also need to configure a control output on the amplifier you want to backup:

Control Output Configuration


  • In System select the desired amplifier.
  • Select the Control Output you want to use.
  • Set the Control Output to Normally Closed.

Wire the Control Output on the amplifier to the Control Input on the backup amplifier.
If the amplifier loose the power the Control Output will open and the Backup Request functionality will trigger.
