Applying Power 3-7
700 - 1500 Terminals
The PanelView Plus 700 - 1500 terminals have both a Reset switch and
a Default switch on the side of the logic module.
Reset
Use the RESET switch to restart the terminal without having to
disconnect and reapply power. Insert a thin probe into the hole
marked RESET and press the switch. The terminal will perform a
series of startup tests and run RSView ME. The loaded .MER
application may also run depending on how the terminal is
configured.
Default
Safe Mode is a diagnostics mode where the system is reduced to a
known state that allows recovery from a configuration or application
problem. Use the DEFAULT switch with the RESET switch to start the
terminal in Safe Mode. This is a diagnostics mode where the system is
reduced to a known state that allows recovery from a software
problem. Safe Mode ignores all user changes to the system and avoids
any problem that is due to interactions with end-user software or
changes.
For more details on Safe Mode, refer to page 8-14.
• Insert a thin probe into the hole marked DEFAULT and press the
switch, then;
• Insert the probe into the hole marked RESET and press the
switch. The system will restart immediately into the Safe Mode.
ATTENTION
!
Use a nonconducting object to press the RESET and
DEFAULT switch. Do not use a conducting object
such as a paper clip or you may damage the
terminal. Do not use the tip of a pencil; graphite
may damage the terminal.
