Motorola APEX1000 Installation And Operation Manual page 328

•
Save Changes — Preserves changes from RAM to flash. This allows the changes to
take effect on the next reboot.
•
Reboot Now — Causes the APEX1000 to reboot immediately; changes in RAM not
persisted to flash are discarded.
Destructive Purge Menu (Root.4)
You should only use this menu as a last resort, preferably under the direction of Motorola
BCS technical support. Indiscriminant use of this menu may cause the APEX1000 to
become non-operational.
You must manually select the APEX1000 to be rebooted after selecting any of the
options below. From this menu you can access:
•
Erase All Software and Configuration Files — Destroys flash file system. This
includes all configuration files as well as the application software itself. Only the boot
ROM firmware is left intact. The boot ROM firmware will rebuild the file system at
the next reboot provided there is a BOOTP server that will provide the correct
configuration and application software files. This selection cannot be made if the
boot method was previously set to None.
•
Erase Configuration Files — Erases the APEX1000 configuration files, including
manual mapping files. This should only be done when a new set of known
configuration files are to be loaded onto the APEX1000. This selection cannot be
made if the boot method was previously set to None.
•
Erase Application Software Files — Erases all application files. This should only be
done when loading the APEX1000 with new firmware. This selection cannot be
made if the boot method was previously set to None.
•
Erase All Commands Stored in NVRAM and Reboot — This feature deletes all
stored Load APEX1000 commands (commands from an external controller such as a
DAC 6000) and all other internal APEX1000 configuration settings. Erasing
commands has no effect on the operation of the APEX1000 when the APEX1000 is
internally controlled (any of the VOD operating modes).
The APEX1000 will be immediately rebooted after accepting/entering yes.
•
Except for the erasing of NVRAM, a BOOTP server must be available to reload the
APEX1000 after the configuration files and/or application software files have been
erased.
