5.10.3 OTAP Recovery Mode
When a machine cannot verify the safe state or other
required OTAP parameters, users can initiate the OTAP
Recovery Mode for remote programming. The OTAP
Recovery Mode utilizes the TFX’s indicator LEDs and Morse
Code to verify the machine’s safe state when there is no
proper application on the HFX controller, or if there are
missing required parameters, to communicate with the TFX.
Refer to the TFX – Over-the-air Programming USER MANUAL
for more information regarding OTAP Recovery Mode.
