.
• Press and then release the Halt button.
• Press the Restart (BA215: Restart/Run) button.

If you ran MDM on a new system, you are ready to install your software. Set
the Write-Protect button to write-enable and then follow the instructions
in your software manuals.
If you ran MDM on a system containing software, you must reboot that
software.
You can reboot your system software in one of two ways:
• At the console mode prompt (>>>), use the command BOOT Dxxx, where
Dxxx is the device name of the fixed disk or RF-series ISE containing
your system software.
Use DUxx for an RA-series disk drive, or an RF-series ISE with a
KFQSA adapter.
Use DIxx for an RF-series ISE with a CPU-based DSSI.
After your system software is loaded, set the Break Enable/Disable
switch to disable (down) to avoid halting the system by pressing
Break
.
• Set the Break Enable/Disable switch to disable (down) and press
the Restart (BA215: Restart/Run) button. That begins the self-test
sequence and loads system software.
