Reboot Net I/O
The Reboot Net I/O screen allows the user to perform a hardware reset of the N-664.
This will not affect the state of the stored configuration files, but will cause all N-664
systems to reset as if a power interruption had occurred. A single button, “Click here to
reboot”, is provided to restart the system.
The N-664 takes approximately 10 seconds to reboot and return to full function after this
function is used.
When the N-664 is being reset, all the aux contact outputs will retail their current state
until the reset cycle is completed, at which time they will behave as configured on the
‘Aux Setup’ page. Any messages from to change aux outputs from other devices on the
network will be ignored while the device is rebooting. Alarm conditions on the alarm
input terminals will also be ignored while the device is rebooting.
When the N-664 is rebooting, all serial data links over the network will be dropped. The
unit will attempt to reestablish them once it has finished rebooting, but any data arriving
on the serial ports during the reboot cycle will be lost.
