JNS Control Center
9−4 CM 4000 Installation and Operating Manual
To select all the boards, click on the Select All button. To de−select all boards click on the Unselect All button.
Reboot
This button sends a reboot command to the selected boards only. This differs from the Reboot button on the Configuration
tab, which sends reboots to all boards.
Note: Having different versions of software or configuration tables between boards can cause system instability.
Clear PMEM
This button clears PMEM on the selected boards.
Clear Flash
This clears flash memory on the selected boards and reboots them. The boards will immediately begin downloading all config-
uration and code.
Post Mortem
This starts the post−mortem debugger on the selected boards.
Start Board Override
Start Board Override is a troubleshooting tool intended for programmer use. When the Start Board Override button is selected,
and a board selected and booted, the basic operating system will launch but the Jupiter processes will not start. Boards in this
state will display a Probe message similar to “pmemOverrideStartBoard is set, not starting this board.” Using Probe, one can
enter “startBoardOverrideShow” from the shell to determine if the board will or will not start up on the next reboot. Once
troubleshooting is completed, one can either reboot the board (which will automatically “start” all processes), or use the Probe
command “startBoard” to resume normal board operation.
Probe connections are described in Appendix C.
Telnet
This opens telnet windows for the selected boards. For this command to work, you must have a “telnet.exe” application some-
where in your search path. The default TCP/IP Windows installation will do this for you. Note that if you have selected several
boards, the telnet windows may appear on top of each other. Simply move them to see the ones underneath.
Update Board Info
This requests updated board information from the boards. The control center does not poll for board information. It does at-
tempt to update board information when boards become active, but the display may occasionally show incorrect information.
If you suspect this, click on the Update Board Info button.
