When to Use
System Mode
Use the system mode functions to perform different subsets of related tasks:
• Application programmers configure a development device, download
development versions of applications, then test and debug these applications
until they are validated and ready to be downloaded to other devices.
• Deployers perform the specific tasks required to deploy a new device on-site,
including configuring the device, downloading applications, and testing the
device prior to deployment.
• System administrators or site managers change passwords, perform
routine tests and device maintenance, and configure devices for remote
diagnostics and downloads.
To perform the subset of tasks that corresponds to a job, select the appropriate
system mode menus and execute the corresponding procedures.
