Resetting the RCM to Factory Defaults
You can reset the RCM to factory settings, if desired. You would need to do this if
you forgot the escape sequence for the RCM. Follow the steps below.
1. Turn off the system.
2. Unplug the AC power cords.
NOTE: If you do not unplug the power cords, the reset will not take effect when
you power up the system.
3. Remove the system covers. See Section 7.2.
4. Locate the RCM switchpack on the system board, and set switch 4 to ON.
5. Replace the system covers and plug in the power cords.
6. Power up the system to the SRM console prompt.
Powering up with switch 4 set to ON resets the escape sequence, password, and
modem enable states to the factory defaults.
7. Power down the system, unplug the AC power cords, and remove the system
covers.
8. Set switch 4 to OFF.
9. Replace the system covers and plug in the power cords.
10. Power up the system to the SRM console prompt, and type the default escape
sequence to invoke RCM command mode:
^]^]RCM
11. Reset the modem password. Reset the escape sequence, if desired, as well as any
other states.
