This
message
appears
along
with
the
sign-on
message
above
if
the
battery
backed-up
RAM
checksum
verification
fails
at
power-on
time,
causing
the
packet
controller
to
load
the
default
parameters
from
ROM.
(This
will
be
the
case
the
first
time
you
turn
on
your
packet
controller)
This
message
also
appears
if
the
packet
controller
loads
the
defaults
in
response
to
the
RES
command.

This
is
the
Command
Mode
prompt.
When
this
prompt
appears,
the
packet
controller
is
waiting
for
you
to
issue
a
command.
Anything
you
type
after
this
prompt
will
be
interpreted
asa
command
to
the
packet
controller.
If
a
monitored
packet
has
been
displayed,
the
prompt
may
not
be
visible,
even
though
you
are
in
Command
Mode.
You
can
type
the
redisplay-line
charac-
ter
(set
by
REDisplay)
to
retype
the
prompt.
Whenever
you
change
the
setting
of
one
of
the
packet
controller
parameters,
the
previous
value
will
be
diplayed.
This
confirms
that
the
packer
controller
properly
interpreted
your
command,
and
reminds
you
of
what
you
have
done.
