10.4.1 BadTokenData error in nShield modules
Some nShield modules are equipped with a rechargeable backup battery for maintaining Real Time
Clock (RTC) operation when the module is powered down. This battery normally lasts for up to two
weeks if no power is supplied to the nShield Connect unit.
If the module is without power for an extended period, the RTC time is lost. When this happens,
attempts to read the clock (for example, using the ncdate or rtc utilities) return a BadTokenData error
status.
The correct procedure in this case is to leave the nShield Connect powered up for at least 10 hours to
recharge the battery, and then reset the clock. No other nonvolatile data is lost when this occurs.
