To avoid damaging the circuits, make
A
sure the cable connector is inserted properly into
the
adapter in the next step. Note
the location of the locking screw as shown in
Figure 2-13, step B. Also note the red stripe on
the bottom edge of the ribbon cable.
11. Plug the 34-pin rectangular connector on the end of
the ribbon cable into the
rectangular

2.4.3.9 System Programming Keyboard
The system programming keyboard plugs into a DIN
connector on the front panel of the card cage (Figure
l-l). The keyboard must be used in the IBM
compatible mode. The mode selector DIP switch is
located on the bottom of the keyboard. Make sure the
DIP switch is configured as shown in Figure 2-14.

appropriate power outlet.
2.6 Power-Up Cold Boot
When the system has been installed and all cable runs
made, the next step is to perform a cold boot of the
system. This ensures that critical memory areas are
cleared. Failure to perform a cold boot can result in
erratic system behavior.
NOTE:
Depending on the system size, a cold boot
may require
minutes to clear memory.
At the system programming console, use the following
procedure to perform a cold boot:
1.
Loosen the four (4) captive screws on the front panel
of the card cage (Figure l-l) and
carefully
pull the
front panel a few inches away from the cage. Dis-
connect the keyboard DIN connector from the CPU
board. Remove the front panel.
2.
Press the card cage power switch inside the front
panel of the card cage to turn on the system. Refer
to Figure 2-5.
3. Reconnect the programming keyboard DIN
connector to the CPU board.
4.
Replace the front panel and tighten the screws.
5.
Connect the
programming keyboard
to the DIN connector on the front panel. Refer to
Figure 1-P.
6.
Set the ON/OFF switch on the front panel of the card
cage to ON to enable the system programming
keyboard. The system status monitor displays
“SYSTEM OPERATIONAL.”
7. Press the ESC key of the system programming
keyboard twice. The status monitor then displays
the Master Menu. Refer to Figure
15.
8.
Use the up or down arrow keys to move the cursor
to the SUPERVISOR FUNCTIONS entry. Press the
ENTER key to confirm the selection. The status
monitor then displays the Supervisor Menu. Refer
to Figure 2-16.
9.
Use the up or down arrow keys to move the cursor
to the SET DEFAULTS entry. Press the ENTER
key to confirm the selection. The status monitor
then displays the Set Defaults Menu. Refer to
Figure 2-17.
10. Press the END key to proceed. The next screen
(Figure 2-18) prompts for a Y to continue or an N
to abort. Press the Y key. This initiates the cold
boot. The status monitor then displays the memory
addresses as they are cleared. Upon completion, the
status
monitor
displays
“SYSTEM
OPERATIONAL.”
