Master Slave with LM5
#1
Hello,

In my project, I have an LM5 as the Master and another as the Slave.
The Slave is intended to switch on if the connection to the Master fails. Both should perform the same function.
I have KNX, DALI, BACnet, and Modbus communication.

Is there a way for the Slave to only activate when the connection to the Master has failed?
The Slave should, however, always listen in on all communications so that it is up-to-date in case of a Master failure.

Thank you very much for your help.

KNX sensors control the lighting via DALI. In the event of a failure, the second LM should take over the control and visualization.

The LM communicates with the Schneider Gateway via BACnet. Modbus is used for communication with field devices.

In case of a Master LM failure, everything should continue to operate via the Slave LM. Sensor values are visualized.

the DALI - is it KNX DALI gateway?
LM communicates with the Schneider Gateway via BACnet - what do you mean here? Is LM bacnet server or client?
Modbus - is it RTU or IP?
Two LMs can't have same IP so in any case this will need to be manually switched to new url.
