Network 'Lock-Up' issue resolved
Last updated on February 13, 2011 by The C.A.R.L.A. Team | This article is Archived | Permalink
We've been testing it for a week now and feel confident our programming changes have fixed the lock-up (dead key) problem we have been experiencing on the network.
As some of you may remember, the problem started when we switched over to the back-up link at CARLA 8's site since we were having problems with the newly installed IP link to CARLA 18 (which serves as the Nevada Ring's Hub). Normally, CARLA 8 is a spoke off of the primary Vaca Hub. Currently it is acting as a relay between the Vaca Hub & Nevada Hub until we can thoroughly troubleshoot the IP circuit issue.
All that being said, the problem with the lock-up's seems to have ceased so we will now revert the time out timer from Nevada to California back to 3 minutes (from the current 1 minute temporary setting) and we don't have to deal with those annoying dead keys anymore.
