Service, Factory Parameters Menu
6.20.1 Service, USER PARAMETERS Menu
The options are:
LOCK KBD This locks the keyboard after displaying a screen showing the unlock code. As
with all Paradise equipment the unlock code is simply the product number (eg
300). The unlock code is displayed before the keyboard is locked on the Modem,
as we had quite a few calls to the technical support line which start off “I’ve just
selected Lock Keyboard from the menu and ......”
CLR CONFIG This clears the current configuration down to its default blank state.
CLR ALL+RESET This clears the entire non volatile memory, including current configuration, all
configuration memories, and the traffic log, then resets the processor.
FAN Normally the fan is temperature controlled, switching on at 26C and off at 24C.
The internal temperature can be monitored on the TEST, PSU + TEMP menu. A Unit
Warning /deferred alarm will be activated if ever the internal temperature reaches
within 3 degrees Centigrade of the operating limits of 0C and 60C. Should the
internal temperature exceed the limits of 0C and 60C, then a Unit Fault / Prompt
Alarm is activated. The Tx carrier is muted outside the operating temperature
range.
6.20.2 Service, FACTORY PARAMETERS Menu
The options are:
SERIAL # This menu allows the serial number to be both viewed and edited.
DEBUG Used for Paradise internal procedures only. Setting Debug to a value other
than 0 is very likely to slow down the operation of the unit.
REM M&C This option is used to set the timeout required before local control can be taken
if the unit is in remote mode. This is covered extensively in section Change, Rem-
M&C Menu on page 99
WATCHDOG This provides an option to test the watchdog timer. The watchdog timer is a timer
which is regularly reset by the processor. Should it ever reach its set time, then
the processor has failed to reset it, and probably crashed. Testing the Watchdog
timer therefore will cause the unit to reset, and corrupt both Tx and Rx
traffic for a few seconds.
