A. The archiving strategies operate independently from each other. If one strategy were to fail for some reason the other one would continue to function correctly. Q. When archiving using the FTP, does the recorder send data to both servers each time or only to the primary server if this one is available, using the second server only if the first server is not available? A. The unit will always archive to primary FTP server unless there is a problem at which point it will switch to the secondary server. It does not archive to both servers simultaneously.
