Appendix B System reset
When required, you can perform a system reset to return the firmware running on an FVAi-2030 microscope to
an earlier version. From that version, you can update to the firmware version you require. This facilitates
maintaining firmware-version stability and uniformity across a fleet of deployed microscopes.
Note:
If you must return to an earlier version of the firmware, you must first perform a system reset. You can
then update to a firmware version later than the version defined by the system-reset threshold.
Important:
•
VIAVI strongly recommends that you refer to the document
for information
about the system reset process, including limitations, before you perform this procedure.
•
A system reset deletes all test results, custom analysis profiles and optical settings available on the
microscope, and restores all factory-set options. Therefore, before you start a system reset, ensure that all
required custom profiles and optical settings are available on FiberChekPRO. For information, see
FiberChekPRO Automated Fiber Inspection and Analysis Software User Manual
.
