• Reset to Factory Settings
If you wish to reset the device software to the original parameters set by the supplier, set the
switch to 00h/80h. This is necessary, for instance, when the device has been loaded with a new
firmware.
The reset affects the following program sections:
- Reset to default mapping (Careful: Mapping parameters that may have been added by the
user will be lost after a reset!)
- Rese to default parameters (Careful: The current parameter record will be overwritten!)
Procedure:
- Switch off the device.
- Set the switch to 00h.
- Switch on the device (intermittent acoustic signal from the internal signal generator)
- Set the switch to 80h (continuous acoustic signal from the internal signal generator)
- Wait until the acoustic signal emitted by the internal signal generator turns from continuous to
intermittent. (The resetting process is completed.)
- Set the device address. (red FA LED lights up)
- Wait until the FA LED extinguishes again (valid address range: 1 to 7Fh)
• Boot Load Function
A special boot load function is available for updating and servicing the device firmware. You
use it to load a new firmware version into the device.
Procedure:
- Switch off the device.
- Connect the device to your computer (depending on the device type: to the RS 232 interface
or to the CAN card of your PC)
- Start the PC Boot Load Tool “Hexapro”.
- Check whether the interface settings of your PC and the infobox device match.
- Set the hexadecimally coded switch to the boot load position: FFh
- Switch on the device.
- In the Hexapro tool, select the Hex program file.
- Start the program transmission in Hexapro. (A flashing FA LED indicates that transmission is
in progress.)
- Wait until the Hexapro tool indicates the end of transmission.
- Reset the device to its original factory settings (see above).
• Software Configuration (Setting the Parameters and Programming)
The device can be easily adjusted to meet different requirements by configuring it and setting a
number of parameters using software. Two PC software programs are available for this
purpose.
- PC-Tool for WIN 95 / WIN 98 / WIN NT for single user systems
- PC-Network Tool for WIN 95 / WIN 98 / WIN NT for CANopen networks
