5.1 Shutting down hardware components
The installed hardware components CHU and BSCU operate with different software com-
ponents that should be shut down properly. For this reason, these hardware components
must be shut down before switching off the DIB-R5 flexibleTx.
The following table provides an overview of the order in which the hardware components
should be shut down.
Shutting down hardware components (order)
Order Hardware component
1 BSCU (standby) optional
With redundant BSCUs (controller redundancy), the BSCU in standby
mode must be shut down first to prevent a switchover of the BSCUs.
The operating status of the BSCU is indicated via LEDs, refer to
Ä
Table “Legend: Indicators (LEDs) of the BSCU” on page 49.
2 BSCU (operational)
Shutting down the CHU
All installed CHUs are automatically shut down at the same time when shutting down
the BSCUs without standby BSCU (controller redundancy). The CHUs do not have to be
shut down individually except for service and maintenance purposes.
