The purpose of this feature is to keep an operator away from the modes and CONFIG mode items that

can change the contents of the controller's non-volatile memory.

When the Expert Access screen is displayed, the present state of the Expert Access Flag is displayed in

the data entry field. A display value of 1 indicates that the Expert Access Flag is set, and a value of 0

indicates that the flag is reset. To toggle the state of the flag, the user must key in a 5 digit code at the

prompt followed by the ENTER key. This code is found in a removable Appendix at the end of this

manual. If the information is lost, call the factory for assistance.

5.10.13 Reset System Data

The Reset System Data CONFIG mode data item is used to reset the controller's non-volatile memory.

When this occurs, the azimuth and elevation limits are invalidated, and most of the various CONFIG

mode items are initialized to a default value. This operation is usually performed at the factory. Access

to this item is allowed only when the Expert Access flag is set. To reset the system memory, the user

must key in the same 5 digit code used for Expert Access, followed by the ENTER key.

RESET SYSTEM DATA: 0 CONFIG
ENTER CODE ENT,BKSP,SCRLL ^v

Following are the default values that are assigned to non-volatile memory on system reset. A space is

provided to record the values of the CONFIG mode items that are assigned by the user.
