NL100/105 Network Link Interface

2.4.5 Reset

This option reboots the NL100/105, using the last saved settings that have been
programmed by the user. This option is different from the Defaults menu item.
The Defaults menu item resets the NL100/105 back to the factory defaults.

After the NL100/105 reboots, it may take a few moments to reestablish
communication. Press enter a few times until the NL100/105 status line is
returned.

When using the NL100/105 in a PakBus network, resetting the
NL100/105 (or making other changes to the network that might
change the known route to remotes), may result in lengthy
communication interruptions until the new routes can be learned
by all the devices in the network.

NOTE

2.4.6 Help

The Help option provides tips for navigating within the NL100/105 menu
prompts and gives a brief description of each menu item. Help for a particular
setting can be displayed by pressing F1 or ? at the prompt for that setting.

2.4.7 Bye

The Bye option is used to close the Socket connection at the end of a Telnet or
terminal communication session.

2.4.8 Other Commands

Additional commands are available for the NL100/105, which are not shown
on the prompt line for the device or in DevConfig. The commands are used for
troubleshooting.
