‘W’ – Reset System to Defaults
Syntax:
W
Purpose:
This command resets all of the system EEPROM variables to their factory default
values. When using this command, the
‘^K’ – *Save Operational Configuration
) could be used afterwards to save the factory default values to
the EEPROM if that is desired. Then the
) can be used to reinitialize the system and verify that the factory defaults
are now stored in the system EEPROM.
Relatives:
^K, ^Y, X
Default:
N/A
Example:
If the FASTRAK EEPROM had been altered (by sending various other
commands and saving the result to the EEPROM) and the user wanted to return
the system to its original factory default settings, then the following commands
should be sent:
W
^K
^Y
The green light on the front panel of the FASTRAK will now blink several times
while the system is initializing. After initialization, the system EEPROM will be
set with all of the factory default parameters. This exercise is especially useful
when the system has been modified to the point where the user is not sure how to
get back to factory defaults. However, care should be taken because
all
custom
settings will be lost as a result of the reset.
NOTE:
This command should only be used after consultation with Polhemus.
