records could be collected since it took 50 ms, or 5 records, to stop the CPU
from storing its 5 records beyond when the card was stopped.
8. Note that only the CRD: drive will keep storing until all its records are filled;
the CPU: drive will stop when the programmed number of records are stored.
9. Note that the O command in the terminal mode helps to visualize more
precisely what CPU: drive and the CRD: drive are doing, actual size allocated,
where they are at the present, etc.
8.8.4 Resetting the CR6
A reset is referred to as a "memory reset." Be sure to backup the current CR6
configuration before a reset in case you need to revert to the old settings.
The following features are available for complete or selective reset of CR6
memory:
• Full memory reset
•
Program send reset
•
Manual data-table reset
• Formatting memory drives
8.8.4.1 Full Memory Reset
Full memory reset occurs when an operating system is sent to the CR6 using
DevConfig
or when entering 98765 in the Status table field FullMemReset
(p. 628).
A full memory reset does the following:
• Clears and formats CPU: drive (all program files erased)
•
Clears SRAM data tables
• Clears
Status
-table elements
• Restores settings to default
•
Initializes system variables
• Clears communication memory
Full memory reset does not affect the CRD: drive directly. Subsequent user
program uploads, however, can erase CRD:.
Operating systems can also be sent using the program Send feature in datalogger
support software
(p. 97).
A full reset does not occur in this case. Settings and
