Reset Pointer (RES PO) (1000 FleetKey only)
Use “RESET POINTER” to reset the starting point for printing maintenance transactions.
Maintenance transactions are stored in the KE200 in circular memory storage. The system
keeps track of these transactions by a beginning (FIRST) and ending (LAST) pointer system.
The FIRST pointer is set with the “RESET POINTER” command. The LAST pointer
advances as transactions are stored. The KE200 stores about 980 maintenance transactions.
You can print these transactions via the RS-232 port, or you can print only specific ones by
moving the FIRST pointer using the “RESET POINTER” command. For example, if you have
50 transactions in the maintenance transaction file (your LAST pointer is sitting at 50) and you
want to print only the last 10 transactions, you would move your FIRST pointer to 40. You can
determine the location of your pointers by running the “STATUS” command and viewing the
value in the “FIRST TRANSACTION NUMBER” field.
Ensure that you replace the pointer to its original location after printing desired transactions. If
you leave the pointer ahead of transactions not yet printed, transactions may be overwritten
and lost.
