Effects of Reset
During system reset, the PCR II Plus performs the following:
• Executes a warm-up.
• Tests the system memory.
• Executes a system reset.
• Calibrates assigned brightness levels.
• Programs the address specified in PCR II Plus memory into the
GPIB or SCSI controller.
• Rotates the filter wheel to the dark filter position.
• Loads default image dimensions for the camera module currently in
use. If a no camera module is attached, NO MODULE appears in the
message window.
• Clears an end-of-film condition, if one exists.
• Interrupts the current command in progress.
• Sounds a half second beep.
The PCR II Plus requires several seconds to complete a system reset.
Wait until the READY message appears before you send data from the
host computer. If you send data before the PCR II Plus is ready, the
reset operation hangs up. To recover, reset the system.
