Do not remove power while a recovery image install or
backup restore is in progress, meaning the BACKUP LED is
flashing in "working mode" pattern (1s On/1s Off, or slow
blink). Otherwise, the EC-BOS-8 UUKL will be inoperable
("bricked"), and must be returned to a service center for
repair.
USB Ports and Pushbutton Switches
Behind the EC-BOS-8 UUKL front access door are two USB ports, two
pushbutton switches, and an associated LED.
Figure 9:
USB ports and switches behind access door.
1
PROG - USB 2.0 for usage with USB flash (thumb) drive.
2
DEBUG - Micro-A USB for serial debug communications.
3
BACKUP - Pushbutton switch to start a USB backup, or if held
in during power up/boot up, a factory recovery image.
4
SHT/DWN - Recessed switch for controlled shutdown.
5
BACKUP - LED to indicate USB media present, or a backup,
restore, or factory recovery image in progress. See
LED." On page 7.

The DEBUG port is a standard Micro-A type USB port for serial
debug communications to the EC-BOS-8 UUKL. Use a serial terminal
program (for example: PuTTY) to access the EC-BOS-8 UUKL
system shell" menu. This provides access to a few basic platform
settings. Default DEBUG port settings are: 115200, 8, N, 1 (baud
rate, data bits, parity, stop bits). For details on using a serial
connection to the DEBUG port, see the EC-BOS-8 UUKL EC-Net 4
Install and Startup Guide.
Login requires admin-level platform credentials.
•
The SHT/DWN pushbutton initiates a "controlled shutdown" of the
EC-BOS-8 UUKL, ensuring that all station data is preserved. This
provides an alternative to the platform "stop station" command, while
connected online with the EC-BOS-8 UUKL. See
BOS-8 UUKL
Shutdown".
Initiating an EC-BOS-8 UUKL Shutdown
When locally servicing an installed and configured (commissioned) unit,
use this feature before removing power.
Do not initiate a shutdown or remove power if:
•
BACKUP LED is blinking in "working mode", or
•
Beat LED is flashing at a 90%/10% on/off rate.
Instead, wait for the BACKUP LED to be in another state
(typically Off), and the BEAT LED to flashing at the normal
50%/50% on/off duty cycle rate before initiating a shutdown.
For related details, see
"BACKUP
LED," page 7.
Prerequisite: The EC-BOS-8 UUKL has been commissioned (Niagara 4
installed, platform configured, a station installed) and the unit is running
the station.

1.
Press and hold the recessed SHT/DOWN button just until the
"BACKUP" LED begins flashing in "alert mode" pattern: 100ms
On/100ms Off repeating (fast blink).
2.
Release the SHT/DOWN button during this alert mode. This
starts the shutdown process, where the station and software is
put into a safe state. During this shutdown, the "BACKUP" LED
blinks in "working mode".
When shutdown is done, the "BACKUP" LED turns Off. You

can safely remove 24V power from the unit.
In the case where the system cannot be put into a safe
state, the "BACKUP" LED blinks in "error mode": two quick
200ms flashes On, 3 seconds Off, repeating.
