l. Press S to save the configuration. Press F2 to activate the
Selection menu and verify that the second‐tier Paragon switch is
properly configured: Select a channel port for the second‐tier
path and press Enter, then a channel port for a server attached to
the second‐tier Paragon switch and press Enter. If you can
properly access and operate the chosen server, the second‐tier
Paragon switch is properly installed.

m. Repeat steps C through L for all remaining (if any) second‐tier
Paragon switches attached to the Base Unit.
n. Edit the names of any servers directly attached to the Base Unit
and verify the Base Unitʹs configuration as described in steps 6B
through 6E of the section Installing a Paragon System with a
Single Matrix Switch (on page 24).

Important: If you rearrange a cascaded system or dismantle one and
rebuild it differently later, you must recycle power to each switch in
the new cascade. A soft reset allows each switch to retain all user and
system profiles, and to auto‐detect the current status of its channel
ports and user ports. Follow the installation steps in this section to
install the new cascade, but when you power on each switch (which
must be done in proper tier order, from upper tier to base tier), press
FUNC on the unitʹs front panel until ʺClear Database Hit Ent/ESC?ʺ
appears on the LCD panel. Press the ENT and the ESC buttons
sequentially to execute a partial reset on the database. Please see the
ʺReset Unitʺ section in Paragon II Front Panel Display and Controls (on
page 16) for additional information.

Rules of Powering On a Cascaded System
When powering on existing stable configurations (that is, if you are NOT
replacing or adding switches and NOT swapping the order of switches)
or when you are Power Cycling a cascaded configuration, follow the
sequence below:

or when you are Power Cycling a cascaded configuration, follow the
sequence below:
1. First power on the third‐tier switches (if a third tier exists).
2. Then power on the second‐tier switches.
3. Finally power on the Paragon II base tier.
User stations can be powered on and off at any time as needed.
For configurations where switches are added, replaced, or swapped (in
order), follow the sequence below:
