Default Parameters

This option allows the system administrator to reset the unit to default parameters without

deleting the Password Directory. To clear all menu selected parameters except the Password

Directory, and return the SRM-100 to its default configuration, first access the Utilities Menu

as described in Section 7.5. When the Utilities menu appears, type 4, press [Enter], and

follow the instructions in the submenu.

Notes:

• When the SRM-100 is reset to default parameters, all menu-selected parameters

will be cleared. Menu selected parameters cannot be recovered unless they have

been saved to an ASCII text file as described in Section 8.

• When the "Default Parameters" function is performed via modem, the SRM will

not immediately reset modem parameters. The unit will reset all other parameters,

wait for the caller to disconnect, and then reset modem parameters.

7.5.5.

Send Test Message

This option allows the system administrator to send a test message via the Console Port or

telecommunications line. If the SRM Command Mode has been accessed via the Console Port,

the Test Message will be sent out the Console Port; if the Command Mode has been accessed

via modem, the Test Message will be sent via the telecommunications line.
This Test Message is used to test communication with a remote device that has accessed the

SRM Command Mode via modem, or to test communication with the local device connected to

the Console Port. To send the Test Message, proceed as follows:

1. Access the SRM Command Mode as described in Section 5.1.
2. When the "SRM>" command prompt appears, type /U and press [Enter]. The Utilities

Menu will appear as shown in Figure 7.2.

3. From the Utilities Menu, type 5 and press [Enter].

a) If you have accessed the SRM Command Mode via the Console Port, the Test

Message will then be sent out the Console Port.

b) If you have accessed the SRM Command Mode via modem, the Test Message will

then be sent out the telecommunications line.

4. To terminate the Test Message, press the [Esc] key.

7.5.6.
