The Memory diagnostic checks Flash memory for the integrity of the upgraded firmware file.
Flash memory stores BDS firmware uploads. Firmware can be upgraded on-site or remotely
via modem. To run this test, click Start and select a file to compare to the contents in Flash
memory. This test takes several minutes.
SRAM memory stores calibration and setup information and data, such as Discharge, Alarm
and Resistance test data. To clear all measured data stored in nonvolatile SRAM memory,
click Clear Data Memory. To clear configuration settings for all strings in the BDS
Controller hardware, click Clear All Strings Config.
