The Functions menu consists of commands for resetting and restarting the system,
and for specifying control system and touchpanel settings.
CNX/CN Series
Soft Reset
The Soft Reset command restarts the program that is currently loaded in the control
system's working memory, or RAM.
Hard Reset
The Hard Reset command loads the program that is in permanent memory, or flash
PROM, into RAM. This will overwrite whichever program was previously in RAM.
Cold Reboot
The Cold Reboot command re-initializes Monitor ROM (a set of system-level
routines similar to the BIOS) and restarts the operating system.
Boot from ROM
In CN Series control systems, the Boot from ROM command re-initializes EPROM.
Erase Permanent Memory
The Erase Permanent Memory command erases the program that is currently
stored in flash PROM.
Erase SIMPL+ Directory
The Erase SIMPL+ Directory command erases all SIMPL+ modules that are stored
in flash PROM.
Erase Everything Except the Monitor
The Erase Everything except the Monitor command erases all memory (flash
PROM, RAM, NVRAM, and SIMPL+) except for Monitor ROM (a set of system-
level routines similar to the BIOS).
