BRESET
Disable battery backup
Format:
Group:
BRESET
Nonvolatile
See also:
ELOAD, ESAVE, ERASE, PBOOT
ACR8000:
This command disables the battery backup the next time power is removed from the
board. This allows ACR8000 boards to be stored on the shelf without needlessly draining
power from the battery. The next time power is applied to the board, after shutting down
with BRESET in effect, the battery will return to normal and will hold programs during
consecutive power sequences.
Note: Once this command is issued, there is no way to return the battery to normal
operation without removing and then restoring power. Stored programs will be lost.
ACR1200ACR2000/ACR8010:
This command sets the battery backup memory to its default state the next time power is
removed from the board or the board is reset. This allows the ACR1200 / ACR2000 /
ACR8010 battery backed up memory to be cleared to default without physically removing
the battery jumpers on the ACR1200 board, the ACR8010 board or the ACR2000
ACRCOMM board. Reference the ACR1200/ACR2000/ACR8010 Hardware Manual
(ACR2000 ACRCOMM section) for jumper settings to allow the boards to be stored on
the shelf without needlessly draining power from the battery. The next time power is
applied to the board, after shutting down or after resetting the board with BRESET in
effect, the battery backed up memory will return to normal and will hold programs during
consecutive power sequences.
If valid program data has been stored into the Flash, using the FLASH SAVE or FLASH
IMAGE commands, this will overwrite the default conditions of the battery backed up
memory when using BRESET. If the default memory conditions are required, a FLASH
ERASE should be performed before the BRESET command.
Note: Once this command is issued, there is no way to return the battery backed up
memory to normal operation without removing and then restoring power or resetting the
board. Stored programs will be lost.
ACR1500:
This command performs no function on the ACR1500 board.
