Testing Mode

Once on, when the power button is pressed
for a long time, the RAM-L enters a mode for
system testing. This special mode is intended
for system debugging and testing. When the
RAM-L is turned off, the special mode is
reset. Upon restarting the RAM-L the current
standard settings stored by GLM software
are restored.
Test mode selection blinks the power
button light (see Table 2). A special mode
is activated by a long press on the power
button. In a special mode the power button
light remains on but blinks off 1-4 times indi-
cating the mode currently selected.
The testing modes are not intended for
continued operation. Use GLM software to set
up permanent settings for 1237A and 1238A.
