MONITOR RECOVERY AND UPDATES
Note: The monitor provides VxWorks 6.0 support for Error Data and Reporting (EDNR). This feature allocates a per-
sistent area of memory that retains its contents after a systerm soft reset. Any information stored in the 32-
megabyte window starting at 0x1E000000 should stil be available after a soft resset.
This section describes how to recover and/or update the monitor, given one or more of the
following conditions:
If there is no console output, the monitor may be corrupted and need recovering.
If the monitor still functions, but is not operating properly, then you may need to reset
the environment variables.
Recovering the Monitor
First, make sure that a monitor ROM device is installed in the PLCC socket. Then, place a
jumper on JP2, across pins 1 and 2 (see
Fig. 2-4).

[Katana 752i (1.0)] => moninit serial#
2 Reset the monitor:
[Katana 752i (1.0)] => reset
3 Reset the environment parameters:
[Katana 752i (1.0)] => envinit serial#
4 Power down the board and remove the jumper from JP2, pins 1 and 2.
