Performing a Factory Reset
The receiver’s Non-Volatile Random Access Memory (NVRAM) holds data required for satellite
tracking, such as ephemeris data and receiver position. The NVRAM also keeps the current receiver’s
settings, such as active antenna input, elevation masks and recording interval, and information about
the receiver’s internal file system. A factory reset clears the receiver’s NVRAM and restores the
receiver’s factory default settings. Factory reset takes about 1-2 minutes to perform.
Although a factory reset or clearing the NVRAM is not recommended as a common practice, there are
times when it can eliminate communication or tracking problems.
After a factory reset, the receiver requires time to collect new ephemeris data and almanacs
(approximately 15 minutes).
A factory reset will not delete any files already recorded in the receiver’s memory, and NVRAM keeps
information about the receiver file system.
There are two ways you can perform a factory reset—using TRU software and using the LED display
panel.
The procedure for loading new firmware into the HiPer VR can be performed using
MAGNET Field software version 5.1 and higher.
