Default Settings
Functionality of the Embedded Modules 29
Default Settings
Since default settings may change across release and be different across platforms we
recommend using the Get Configuration Commands
to obtain default settings.
None of the configurable settings in the application FW are saved in non-volatile memory.
Thus the system will always boot up in the same default state, regardless of how it was
previously configured.
