CAUTION: THIS OPERATION ERASES THE OPERATING SYSTEM,
ALL FACTORY OBJECTS AND ALL USER OBJECTS.
Performing this operation will format the Forte’s system ash memory and erase the OS
software as well as all Objects. Do not do this unless you think it is necessary in order to
improve the performance of your Forte. Should you decide to do so, be sure to back up all of
your les and software. After you do this, System Mode will still be available, so you can run
updates and get your Forte up-and-running again. After a Format the unit will come up in
System Mode by default.
To perform a Format, follow these steps:
1. Follow the instructions specied on Page 12-1 to enter System Mode.
