ETCNomad as Master

Question

Hi! 
 I created a show with timecode using the ETCNomad. It works perfectly. 
 I'm going into a venue that has an element console. I would like to use that element console as a backup to the Nomad. 
 Is this even possible? 
 I can get the Nomad to act as a backup to the console, no problem, so the network is talking as it should. 
 But when I try to get the console to act as a backup to the Nomad, it just sits there saying it's looking for a Master.

Yes, a Nomad can be the master to an Element. 
 The rules don't change depending on "direction": 
 
 Same Eos software version installed 
 sSme library version installed 
 Set to same language 
 Same mode (i.e. Nomad needs to be in Element mode to talk to an Element 
 Dongle for your Nomad 
 Multiconsole protocol needs to be activated on the right network port. 
 
 When the console says it's looking for a master did you click {Troubleshoot}? Since this is a Master change for the console you will have to choose it from a list. When you click Troubleshoot you should see this list (in your case with just your Nomad listed).
