Service Mode
Note
: Service Mode is only available/required on Embedded Servers. From Delta Monitor v. 3.0 it is no
longer necessary to put the server in Service Mode to change NICs.
This function allows you to cycle in and out of service mode on an Embedded Server.
Selection of Service Mode results in the menu below. The Enter key is used to agree to either put the
server into or out of Service Mode. You will be warned twice before the system does the restart.
All Nano, Nano 4k and Duo II servers use a Windows Embedded Operating System. This offers the
advantage of file write protection on loss of power.
By default, all embedded servers are shipped out of service mode. When an embedded server is not in
service mode its menu is Blue/Cyan as per any normal Delta server.
When not in service mode, the operating system disk is locked. Anything that is saved to the OS disks
when not in service mode, will be lost on reboot.
There are some exceptions to this rule which are the following:
·
Delta registry settings, including any changes made to preferences within Delta through Delta GUI,
will hold after a reboot.
·
The Delta/System area is read/write
·
