FUNCTION MENU (cont'd)
valid communication and correct operation for each Fire SLC device in the system.
When initiated, power is removed from the GEMC-FW-SLC bus (the common
pathway that connects all of the Fire SLC devices), then power to the GEMC-FW-
SLC bus is restored. Each device's pre-existing configuration (stored within each
device) is retained. To ensure each device's ability to respond to the Fire SLC
circuit board, each Fire SLC device "type" is retrieved from each device by the
GEMC-FW-SLC circuit board (this process takes about 20 seconds, depending on
the number of devices). The retrieval of each SLC device "type" indicates each
device's ability to respond to the Fire SLC circuit board; for each successful re-
trieval, the GEMC-FW-SLC instructs each device to use its pre-existing configura-
tion.
FULL FSLC INITIALIZATION
Use this selection when you wish to re-establish a "starting" condition for all Fire SLC
devices in the system, without the need for the system to remain in operation.
To ensure all devices are operating correctly, this selection clears all memory from each
Fire SLC device in the system, verifies communication with the Fire SLC circuit board,
and restores each device's programming by sending data stored within the Fire SLC
board memory back to each device. Note: This re-initialization process may take up to
1.25 hours to complete, depending on the number of SLC devices in the system.
A full Fire SLC device initialization is also available in PCD-Windows Quickloader
download software. In the PCD-Windows Quickloader toolbar, click Panel History,
Status History, and click the "Fire SLC Init" button.
