3.4 Boot Wait Time

The command bw can be used to display / change the current BootWaitTime. Available delays are 1-2-5-10-20-50 seconds.

Note: The BootWaitTime is stored in the boot section of the serial EEPROM. This section is validated with a CRC code to
avoid the setting of random parameters. If the CRC of the Boot section is not valid, the BootWaitTime can be changed, but
this change has no effect because the bw command does not validate an invalid CRC to avoid undesired side effects. In this
case, the default of 5 seconds is always used.

To validate an invalid CRC, the appropriate utility from an operating system must be used (e.g. ee_config from OS-9).
