9.5.2 Resetting and Power Cycling the System

from a Remote Console

It is possible to reset the system or cycle power from the remote console under

these conditions:

• The console must be connected to port A on the clock board.

• The key switch must be in either the On or Diagnostic setting. If the key

switch is in the Secure or Off position, the remote key sequences and button

resets are ignored.

• Security features permit the use of the remote console.

• You must use a slow typing speed, not less than 0.5 seconds and not more

than 5 seconds between characters.

Note – The remote console logic circuit continues to receive power even if you

have commanded system power off.

The remote system reset command is useful for resetting the system under

general conditions. The remote XIR reset command is used for software

development and debugging.
