from the first lab testing i did with kxtd and tvs using digital integration, i know that the dpits data stream happens on the first, lowest jack the kxtd finds that has a tvs connection.
but i never tested a second tvs on the same box, and put it in a second extension group to see if the kxtd would find the second box. anyone in the group try it? (ok - won't happen, vm common control is a single process, no process for second box) maybe someone has another brilliant idea. problem is a dual 1232-4 maxed out serving two departments. i already have all of dept 1 co's and stations on the master with a tvs100 4port, and all of dept 2 co's and stations on the slave. about twice a year they loose power, longer than my 9 hours of backup battery, and when power returns during work hours, the cabinets won't resync. they at least can each do business (other than intercoming each other) but the loss of the vm to dept 2 is a big problem since the link is gone (the master and slave do work fine independently). not options: replacing cpus to -5 or higher (they almost hung me when i upgraded the cabs from -3 to -4 and the 7436/56 set features changed - these are all power users and their checks depend on these sets). and nwih will i consider tva or tda, tda smells way too much like the 336, problems never solved in 10 years. restarting systems during work hours is a real problem, so much station programming, it takes five minutes for the master to reload the slave. too much lost business. a second tvs would be a perfect fix. at least they love the system and all it's features. could talk to the building engineer about adding safe bsttery storage or a feed from building emergeny power (that everyone else wants too, 277v is fun to deal with ;-) -larry _________________________________________________________________ KX-T Mailing list --- http://kxthelp.com/ Subscription changes: http://kxthelp.com/mailman/listinfo/kxt
