810 REFERENCE GUIDE 145
This message is displayed when you select RAM FILES F2 in SYS MODE MENU 1 and
select
CLEAR GROUP_NN F2 or CLEAR ALL FILES F3 to clear files from the SRAM of a
specific file group (Group 1–15) or from the entire SRAM. This message remains
until the files within the file group or all files in SRAM are deleted.
If you select
CLEAR ALL FILES F3, only the application files stored in SRAM – not
the files stored in flash ROM – are erased. If you erase the main application
stored in the SRAM file system, the device displays
DOWNLOAD NEEDED after the
VeriFone copyright screen on device restart.
This message is displayed when you select
FLASH FILES F3, followed by DEFRAG F4
in
SYS MODE MENU 1 to perform defragmentation (coalesce) of the flash ROM
memory file system.
PLEASE WAIT remains displayed during the defragmentation
process. On successful completion, the device automatically restarts.
An application is being downloaded onto a receiving V
x
810 device from a host PC
directly over a serial cable. This message is also displayed on the Target device in
a back-to-back download.
The device displays a series of asterisks (*) to indicate the progress of the
download (each asterisk represents 10% of the download). When ten asterisks
appear, the data transfer is complete.
This information appears when you select
ERROR & TMPR LOGS F4 in SYS MODE
MENU 2
or on system crash. Select TAMPER LOG F4 to view a list of possible tamper
events. Select
ERROR LOG F3 to display the following information which helps
developers interpret the cause of the most recent unrecoverable software error
that occurred on the device:
TYPE: The error type code.
TASK: The type of task that was currently executed.
TIME: The clock time when the last error occurred in YYMMDDhhmmss format.
CSPR: The register that contains the processor and state condition code.
PC: The register that holds the execution address.
LR: The register that holds the return address of the function call.
ADDR: Contains the illegal address that the application was trying to access.
If you report a system error to VeriFone, you may be asked to provide the
information displayed on this screen. For detailed information about the error log
function and the terms listed above, please refer to the Verix V Programmers
Manual.
