10.2 DECOMMISSIONING AN RF MODULE IN A REMOTE
The
Decommission
button is available only when a RF Module and hence the DART(s)
have already been physically removed. You use the
Decommission
button when an RF
Module and its DART(s) have taken out of service. This procedure removes all
information about this RF Module (such as associated alarms, links, and inventory)
from the EMS database. Entries in the Alarm History Log, however, are preserved.

Remote DARTS. For info
