Cold Start
A cold start clears all the data that is stored in RAM as well as resetting all entered variables to their factory default values or to
the values last written to the tfCold drive by the Save and Restore utility. A cold start should be used for new flow computer
installations. This will ensure that all memory is clear and the operating program is at its default settings. Discretionary use of
this procedure is advised.
