Factory Default Mode
The operating Firmware and configuration for the 833IS is downloaded to the Server
from the Manager, or optionally via TFTP and Telnet. Before this occurs, the 833IS
is in Factory Default mode, or simply Factory mode. In Factory mode, you use the
Front Panel to configure any parameters needed for the initial download connection.
Factory mode also provides statuses on the Front Panel to help diagnose
communication problems with the initial download connection. Front Panel
operation in this mode is detailed in "Factory Default Mode" on page 235.
Once the 833IS has Firmware and is fully configured, the unit is in Normal mode.
The unit can be restored to Factory mode from the Manager (“Configure Menu” on
page 53) or Front Panel (“Control” on page 224).
