Troubleshooting
What to do if the Control Station has difficulty starting up
If the Control Station does not power up properly or if you have difficulty in downloading a configuration
to the Control Station, a "cold start" is a handy way of starting over cleanly.
ATTENTION
A cold start clears the Control Station memory. You will need to re-load the Control Station's
configuration. Refer to Station Designer documentation for details on Downloading to a device.
