4. The Bulk Erase function can be used for the following purposes:
➢
Erase all configuration and cardholder database (sanitize board).
➢
Update OEM default parameters after OEM code has been changed.
➢
Recover from database corruption causing the eMAX-EP4502 board to continuously reboot.
➢
If clearing the memory does not correct the initialization problem, contact technical support.
Bulk Erase Steps
:
Do not remove power during steps 1-8.
a. Set S1 DIP switches to: 1 & 2 "ON", 3 & 4 "OFF".
b. Apply power to the EP4502 board.
c. Watch for LEDs 1 & 2 and 3 & 4 to alternately flash at a 0.5 second rate.
d. Within 10 seconds of powering up, change switches 1 or 2 to "OFF". If these switches are not changed,
the EP4502 board will power up using the OEM default communication parameters.
e. LED 2 will flash indicating that the configuration memory is being erased.
f.
Full memory erase takes up to 60 seconds.
g. When complete, only LEDs 1 & 4 will flash for 8 seconds.
h. The eMAX-EP4502 Board will reboot 8 seconds after LEDs 1 & 4 stop flashing (no LEDs are on during
this time).
