## Swap boards

Swapping board positions means moving all data from one card to an other. When the physical position of two boards has been exchanged, both will still show their previously assigned data (directory number, parameters, keys, terminal type, etc.). The new board position can be an empty or an occupied one.

To access the dialog, click on the “Board” menu in the Configuration directory tree to open the context menu. Select “Hardware Survey” and click on a button “Swap boards”.

### Swapping boards

1. If two boards of the same type and the same number of individual should be swapped:

- Enter the new positions of the boards
- Click on the Submit button.
- The dialog refreshes, now showing the new entries. If no error message was displayed, the boards have been swapped successfully.

2. If two boards of the same type but different number of individual should be swapped:

- make a system Back-up including Maintenance data (system name e.g. BP_01) for security reasons
- Shut down the two board that should be swapped
- Enter any new empty positions (used temporarily only) of the boards
- Click on the Submit button.
- Exchange boards and update the new number of individuals
- For the temporary positions: Enter the final positions of the boards
- Click on the Submit button.
- The dialog refreshes, now showing the new entries. If no error message was displayed, the boards have been swapped successfully.

3. If two boards of different types should be swapped:

- make a system Back-up including Maintenance data (system name e.g. BP_01)
- Go off-line and swap board positions (Enter the new positions of the boards and click on the Submit button)
- The dialog refreshes, now showing the new entries. If no error message was displayed, the boards have been swapped successfully.
- Click on the Submit button and store the data.
- Switch off the system and remove the boards, that should be swapped
- Switch on the system
- Create a new system name e.g. BP_02
- log on and update the empty board positions
- Log off and connect again with system name BP_01
- Transfer the data to switch

Note

Non self reporting cards (AUX3, TBU, IC-LU, Battery Unit) can not be swapped off-line, because non self reporting cards can not be transferred to the switch
