To Run the RAM Test
The switcher can be set to perform a RAM test every
time it powers on. To enable this feature, set DIP switch
1 in the frame to the down position.
Note: When a RAM test is started, it must be allowed to finish.
If the test is interrupted by a power cycle, the test will continue
when the switcher powers on again. This may appear as if the
switcher is failing to power on correctly, or is stuck in an
upgrade.
