2.1.7. Power Button
The power button is located on the front panel, and has the primary function for
turning the APS-3 ON or OFF. Secondary functions are for data logging On/Off, soft and
hard receiver reboot/reset. In a soft reboot the receiver resets the firmware, while
retaining the current configurations. In a hard reboot the APS-3 will recall the receiver’s
boot configuration file (default reboot).
