Software Reset
Software reset provides a hard reset for the software-resettable control module and
ODU.
A software reset is equivalent to a power-down reboot (power off - pause - power on),
with one important difference; a copy of the Helpdesk Data File is automatically
saved to a default folder on your Portal PC at C:\Program Files\Portal\Reset Logs\.
For information on this file refer to
The Reports Screen on page 32
.
A software reset should only be used where all other avenues for fault determination
are exhausted - effectively a last resort option. It can be likened to a reboot for a PC.
• Relevant Eclipse alarm descriptions include a reboot prompt where all other
recommended actions fail to produce a result.
• Eclipse alarm descriptions are prompted within:
• The Event Browser screen under Help for Event.
• The Alarms screen under Help for Alarm.
• The Commissioning and Troubleshooting chapter of this manual. Refer to
Portal
Alarms for Edge on page 21
.
Clear Events and History
This function is designed to clear all historical data from the Event Browser and
History screens. It is for use post-commissioning or after re-configuration or
remedial work to clean out unwanted, prior data.
Two recovery choices are presented in the event you decide to return to the original
entries:
• A recover option to fully recover from the cleared action. If not clicked, all prior data
is lost once you log off - there is no subsequent recovery option.
• A temporary recover option to recover (show) data just for the current Portal session.
When Clear is clicked:
• Both the Event Browser and History screens are updated to show only events/data
subsequent to the Clear command.
• Both Event Browser and History screens display an information line, which remains
for the current Portal session unless a full recover is actioned.
