Help for Diagnostics and Administration Screen

Use this screen to issue basic administration commands and obtain diagnotics information from the controller. All items on the screen require that the configuration program be connected to the controller.

Administrative Commands

Reset (C000)

This command resets the processors on the CPU and all RCB cards. The startup sequence will read all configuration parameters from the configuration storage EEPROM. Configuration changes made by directly writing to the EEPROM become active after a reset.

Controller Off (C002)

Turns off the controller, disabling all transmitters. Only the Controller On command (C003) is accepted by the controller through radio ports after issuing this command. Other commands are accepted from the serial port.

Controller On (C003)

Re-enables the controller following the Controller Off command.

Load Defaults (C100)

This command will force the controller to load the default configuration into the EEPROM at the next Reset. It should be used cautiously, as all configuration parameters, including call sign, prefix, and unlock codes will be reset to their default values.

Configuration Backup (C102)

The configuration EEPROM has room for 3 copies of the configuration parameters and macros. This command copies the working set to the first backup set. The backup copy is not affected by the Load Defaults (C100) command.

Configuration Restore (C103)

Copies the first backup configuration copy to the working copy. These values become active following a Reset (C000).

Deep Configuration Backup (C104)

Copies the first backup copy of the configuration parameters to the second backup copy.

Deep Configuration Restore (C105)

Copies the second backup copy of the configuration parameters to the working copy. The values become active following a Reset (C000).

Edit EEPROM

This opens a screen used for directly editing the configuration parameter storage in EEPROM
