time, the present implementation turns off the converter before the programming. The programming time is added
to the Start Delay to provide the total amount of time for which the converter will be off or out-of-service.
Therefore, with one redundant converter in a system, the load will still receive power from the other converters
while one of them is being programmed.
6.4 CXC Reset
6.4.1 Soft Reset
The reset button located on the front panel of the CXC is for restarting the microprocessor. When pressed
momentarily, the unit beeps twice then resets. The front-panel LED’s will illuminate temporarily, but will extinguish
after the system has finished its 15-second self-test.
CAUTION: During rest, the controller may need to run a defragmentation cycle. Cycling of the
LEDs in the front panel indicate that defragmentation is in progress. All full defragmentation can
take up to 20 minutes to perform. DO NOT POWER DOWN the CXC during this time.
6.4.2 CXCI/CXCI+ IP Address Reset
To reset the IP address, press and hold the front panel reset button for three seconds. The CXCI/CXCI+ unit will
beep three times, IP will be reset (to 10.10.10.201) and DHCP will be disabled. The settings will be saved and the
unit will then reset.
This will allow local access; e.g., with a laptop and a standard network crossover cable. See current version
software manual for details.
6.4.3 CXCI/CXCI+ Hard Reset
There is a hard reset button located on right on the side of the CXCI (Figure 2)and on the front of the CXCI+
(Figure 3) This may be used to restart the microprocessor in the event that the front panel (soft) reset button fails
to operate as described above.
CAUTION: Use of hard reset may cause loss of data.
To access the hard reset button on the CXCI, remove the module adjacent to the CXCI.
6.4.4 Time Settings
The CXCI/CXCI+, upon startup*, will set the time based on the following:
•
Attempt to synchcronize with the NTP server (see www.NTP.org).
•
Retrieve the last time stamp from the Event Log.
•
Retrieve the last time stamp from the Statistics Log.
•
Set the time to 2005-01-01 midnight.
*
Whenever the unit is reset or power is completely removed from the CXCI/CXCI+.
