Chapter 6 Troubleshoot the System

At startup, the Fault indicator is off, except for a few brief flashes, and the Comm
indicator is on. If the indicators remain off, check the power cable. After a
successful startup, both indicators are off and controlled by the application
running on the terminal.

The table shows indicator states if the terminal stops during startup.

Returning to the Out-of-box
Condition

You may want to return a terminal to the out-of-box condition to refresh the
terminal or to recover from severe application misbehavior. There is a special
maintenance action that permits you to perform a complete reset and return to
the out-of-box condition for the terminal.

Returning a terminal to an out-of-box condition does not affect the terminal
firmware version or the installed font image.

Follow these steps to return your terminal to the out-of-box condition.

1. Connect an external USB keyboard to the terminal and hold the Ctrl and

Shift keys simultaneously, while starting up the terminal.

A dialog box appears with the prompt:
Return to Out of Box Condition?
