application image inconsistency, or other fatal application error.
• Always. Reboot every time the Neuron Chip is reset.
Application Specify when to copy the on-chip part of the application image from
ROM into the on-chip EEPROM. All applications have at least part of
their image in on-chip EEPROM in the Read-Only data structure. See
Appendix A of the Neuron Chip Data Book for a description of this
structure.
Note: You cannot use this option to recover from corruption of any part
of the application image that is in off-chip memory. If off-chip memory
gets corrupted, recovery will fail and the device will be in the
applicationless state. You will then need to re-program the memory
chip, or re-download the application over the network
• Fatal Application Error. Reboot whenever there is an application
checksum error, illegal device state, memory allocation failure, or
application image inconsistency, or other fatal application error.
• Always. Reboot every time the Neuron Chip is reset.
• App’less is Fatal. Classifies the applicationless state as a fatal
application error. If you select this option, you should also select
the Fatal Application Error check box or else recovery will not
occur.
Note: If you are downloading the device application over the
network, do not select this check box. This is because the device
must be in the applicationless state for a download to occur.
• Reboot EE Vars. Specifies that on-chip EEPROM variables,
including configuration network variables, will also be rebooted
any time the application image is rebooted. This will undo any
changes to the initial state of the EEPROM variables located in the
on-chip EEPROM by a network management tool, the application,
or another device.
Communication
Parameters Specify when to re-initialize the communications parameters from the
ROM copy. Note that re-initializing the communications parameters
will cause the device to lose its priority assignment if it previously had
one.
• Checksum Error. Reboot when a checksum error is detected.
• Type/rate Mismatch. Reboot if the transceiver type (differential,
single-ended or special purpose mode) or the interface bit rate of
the on-chip communications parameters do not match the values in
the ROM copy. This usually indicates corrupted communications
parameters, although this might not be the case if your transceiver
supports multiple bit rates.
• Always. Reboot every time the Neuron Chip is reset.
Setting Device Template Target Properties: Configuration
You can modify the configuration options for a target. To do this, right click the target, click Settings
on the shortcut menu, then select the Configuration tab in the NodeBuilder Device Template Target
Properties dialog.
