3.
Connect the power supply to the controller
4.
The controller starts flashing quickly with the Alarm LED.

Pull down the switch 6 in the S3 dipswitch to the OFF position (down) starts in the
procedure of restoring the factory values
6.
After executing the restore factory settings sequence, the system starts from the
beginning until the platform starts (fast flashing with the RUN LED).
After finishing the procedure of restoring factory settings, the Commissioning Wizard
procedure should be carried out in the required version of Niagara 4.6 and up.
Note: This feature does work only in the Niagara 4.6 version and up.
Note: In case of accidental switching of switch 6 and switching on the power supply, we can
return to normal system startup by disconnecting the power supply, switching the switch 6 to
the OFF position and reconnecting the power supply.
Note: If the factory default procedure is performed, the station cannot be recovered from the
iSMA-B-MAC36NL controller.

Data Recovery Service
The Data Recovery Service is the station platform service that provides NV-RAM support for
iSMA-B-MAC36NL. Providing the platDataRecovery module is installed, this service
automatically appears under Platform Services.
Niagara 4.6 and up includes support for iSMA-B-MAC36NL operation, where a controller uses
NV-RAM (non-volatile random access memory), to preserve RAM-resident data when a power
outage occurs. This includes station data not yet committed to non-volatile flash memory.
Note: A station running in the iSMA-B-
MAC36NL has no seamless immunity to “power bumps”.
Although all station data, including components, histories, and alarms, are automatically
restored to “pre
-
event” values as part of station
start-up (following power restoration), the
briefest power outage results in a controller reboot.
In iSMA-B-MAC36NL solves that problem, as all station-generated data (changed from that
stored in its non-volatile flash memory at the time of power loss) is always preserved in NV-
RAM. Upon power restoration, this data is “played back” in the station during
start-up, then
saved in its non-volatile flash memory.
