Powerup States and Saved Setups

Users may program the T560 as desired and then use the

SAve

command to copy all

setups to nonvolatile flash memory. That saved setup may be recalled at any time via the

REcall

command. The saved setup is also recalled and installed at powerup, allowing the

T560 to resume operation without any serial commands.

The powerup sequence takes about 4 seconds. During this time, channel outputs are
electrically low and terminations are high-Z.

If the saved configuration programs channels to be inverted polarity, those outputs will
transition from low to high when the initial powerup sequence is over.
