This is probably too simple, but why not include the network and power cable in the cable routine? If you are moving some cables from one to the other, what difference does it make if you move a couple more? ?Certainly employ a second power supply, but do not connect the power to the backup processor until it is needed (after the rest of the cables have been moved).? This gives you a backup power supply that could also be used if the primary power supply failed.
?
Then you only have one processor on at a time.? Your backup is also completely isolated from potential electrical damage until it is actually in use.

?
Hi All,
I have a UC Engine with room environment controls and lots of Teams Automation.?
The client wants a back up CP4 to take over if the primary CP4 goes down for whatever reason.?
I have 3 coms, relays and 2 TCP/IP clients.?
Currently I have loaded the same program on each CP4 and they are both running simultaneously under different IPID¡¯s (03 & 04) on the UC Engine IP Table.?
The client only has to swap the com cables and the relay cables.?
the program seems to run fine however one of the TCP/IP clients (linked to a QSC Core 110f) has a some mic mute buttons etc and the button response can be slow when both programs are running.?
