SYSTEM RESET

In the unlikely event that a failure 
should occur at any point in the Apollo 
system, the failed component may 
be reset individually from the other 
system components.

Fail warning indicator

System Status will detect any errors 
in the system and issue a warning to 
the operator.  One warning indicator, 
the FAIL WARNING button, is located 
on the Broadcast Facilities Panel, as 
shown in Fig 1.  This will flash when an 
error is detected.  It can be pressed to 
acknowledge the error and will stop 
flashing, but will remain lit until the error 
has been corrected.

Reset buttons

Buttons on the Broadcast Facilities 
Panel allow the DSP, Surface and Control 
systems to be individually reset.  To do this 
hold the appropriate button for the failed 
component and then press the ENABLE 
button as shown at the bottom right of  
Fig 1. 

Similar buttons are also available on the 
rack, with the addition of the Hydra2 
Router reset button.

Be extremely cautious when resetting 
the Hydra2 Router/Expander system. 
If any other consoles on the same 
network are accessing ports on your 
system, they will experience signal 
loss during the reset period.
