Forced Reload Procedure
Use this procedure to erase the current AP Image and download a new
AP Image. In some cases, specifically when a missing or corrupted AP
Image prevents successful booting, you may need to use ScanTool or the
Bootloader CLI to download a new executable AP Image.
NOTE:
This does not delete the AP’s configuration (in other words, the
Forced Reload Procedure does not reset to device to factory
defaults). If you need to force the AP to the factory default state after
loading a new AP image, use the
Reset to Factory Default
Procedure above.
For this procedure, you will first erase the AP Image currently installed on
the unit and then use either ScanTool or the Bootloader CLI (over the
serial port) to set the IP address and download a new AP Image. Follow
these steps:
1. While the unit is running, press the RESET button.
NOTE:
See
RELOAD and RESET Buttons to identify the buttons. You need
to use a pin or the end of a paperclip to press a button.
Result: The AP reboots and the indicators begin to flash.
