10 RECOVERY MODE
In case of software crash, it is possible to run a recovery firmware on the device with a basic
communication service to restore the working environment.
In order to launch the recovery mode, power up the VSM, wait until the four status LEDs
(Set/Net, Adjust, Monitor e System) turn on in sequence, then press the STATUS button and
then the ESC button. The two Output LEDs start blinking, signalling that the recovery
firmware is running.
The VSM can be connected to the DataVS2 GUI in the recovery condition and perform the
following operations:
Update monitor firmware
Change VSM memory settings
Change monitor general information
NOTE
Please
enter Recovery Mode only if the sensor is not working and you are
not able to establish a communication with the sensor via the DataVS2
Graphic User Interface.
NOTE
The Recovery Mode is only intended for troubleshooting. The sensor in
Recovery Mode cannot be used for machine control.
