Disable Processor Freeze

Participates in a system freeze only when the processor itself halts

Is unaffected when any other processor halts or the system Freeze action is performed

Halt

Terminates all processes running on this processor. Halting a processor does not affect any other processors in the
system.

Halting a processor might result in unrecoverable loss of data. Use the Halt action only to prepare for

reloading the processor or for performing a memory dump.

Hard Reset

The Hard Reset action stops the processor and terminates all processes running on it. Places the processor in a
known state, ready for a Prime for Reload action or Load action.

Use the Hard Reset action only when the Reset action fails. Use of Hard Reset action will erase register

information, rendering a memory dump useless.
