Repeat steps C through L for all remaining (if any) second-tier matrix switches attachedto the Master matrix switch.N. Edit the names of any servers directly attached to the Master matrix switch and verify theMaster matrix switch’s configuration as described in steps 6B through 6E of the sectionInstalling a Paragon System with a Single Matrix Switch, earlier in this chapter.Important: If you rearrange a cascaded system or dismantle one and rebuild itdifferently later, you must recycle power to each matrix switch in the new cascade. Asoft reset allows each matrix switch to retain all user and system profiles, and to auto-detect the current status of its channel ports and user ports. Follow the installationsteps in this section to install the new cascade, but when you power on each matrixswitch (which must be done in proper tier order, from base tier to upper tier), pressFUNC on the unit’s front panel until “Clear Database Hit Ent/ESC?” appears on the LCDpanel. Press the ENT and the ESC buttons sequentially to execute a partial reset onthe database.
