7.1 Starting the S600
After you have wired the S600 for power and connected to external
devices, you can activate it by energizing the external 24 Volts dc
power supply. When it first receives power, the S600 automatically
performs an initialization sequence, including a self-test routine. The
S600 displays the message RESETTING, and then automatically
performs a warm start.
7.2 Warm Start
A warm start does not affect the configuration memory (SRAM). The
S600 continues operation, using the data stored in the configuration
memory just before the restart occurred. It preserves any current
accumulated values.
During a warm start, the S600 displays the message RESTARTING.
Following a successful warm start, the S600 Main menu displays,
which is the starting point for the display screens. (Refer to Chapter 5,
Front Panel, for more information on navigating the display screens.)
If the S600 cannot find a valid configuration, it does not perform a
warm start. Instead, it displays the Startup menu. Refer to Section 7.3,
Cold Start, for details.
7.3 Cold Start
During a cold start, the S600 copies the configuration file from Flash
memory and replaces any on-line changes that have been made to the
configuration files either since the last ones downloaded from a PC
running Config600 software or since the last backup. During a cold
start, you have the option of keeping or resetting the cumulative totals.
You can only keep totals if the structure of the database has not been
changed.
Use a cold start after you send a new configuration to the S600 or to
recover from extreme situations, such as a corrupted database. A cold
