Install a redundant controller

A redundant controller requires an additional Power / Controller Carrier. Do not mix controller types in a redundant controller pair. Use two SX controllers, two SD Plus controllers, or two SQ controllers.

For this procedure, it is assumend that a simplex S-series controller and System Power Supply (24 VDC) are installed on a Power / Controller Carrier.

  2. Snap a System Power Supply (24 VDC) into the left slot of the Power / Controller Carrier.
  3. Snap an S-series controller of the same type as the redundant partner into the right slot of the Power / Controller Carrier.
