IC698CRE020 GE CPU Module 700 MHz PACSystems RX7i CPUs With Firmware Version 2.01

Description:

The IC698CRE020 RX7i 700 MHz CPU comes with Hot Standby Redundancy, ensuring the uninterrupted operation of crucial applications even in the event of a failure in any individual component.

The IC698CRE020 requires a Redundancy Memory Xchange module (RMX), identified as IC698RMX016 in the catalog. Typically, it is set up as a redundancy link within each unit.

In previous releases of the RX7i CPU, an additional 250 ms was added to the timer that the Genius Bus Controllers use for detecting CPU failures.

The resulting formula was: ( 2 x the CPU's configured watchdog timer) + 250 ms with a maximum value of 3 seconds. The maximum setting for this GBC's timer was capped at 3 seconds.

Therefore, in certain cases of RX7i CPU failure, the GBCs would default their outputs up to 250ms later when compared to the same scenario with a 90-70 CPU. Starting with this release, this is no longer true.
