Configuration/Deconfiguration Menu. The default is enabled.

The failure history of each book is retained. If a book with a history of failures is brought back online by

disabling Repeat Gard, it remains online if it passes testing during the boot process. However, if Repeat

Gard is enabled, the book is taken offline again because of its history of failures.

The four inner memory books, if present, are listed first, followed by the four outer books, if present.

The memory books are shown in the following order of physical location code:
