FloBoss 107 Instruction Manual
Revised June-2017 Troubleshooting 7-9
7.4.1 Resetting the FB107
You reset the FB107 to perform a type of cold start that re-establishes a
known operating point and loads the factory defaults (19,200 baud rate, 8
data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit) into the communication ports. The
reset (RST) switch is located on the CPU module, just above the RTD
terminal block.
This cold start does not include any of the clearing options available in a
cold start performed using ROCLINK 800 software.
Note: This type of reset restores the communications ports to the factory
configuration defaults. Some user-entered configuration
parameters may be lost. Therefore, back up any required data
before performing this reset.
1. Refer to Section 7.3.4, Preserving Configuration and Log Data.
2. Remove power from the FB107.
3. Depress and hold down the reset (RST) switch.
4. While pressing the RST switch, reconnect the power to the FB107.
5. After the power LED flashes twice, release the RST switch.
6. Refer to Section 7.4.2, Restarting and Reconfiguring the FB107.
7.4.2 Restarting and Reconfiguring the FB107
After removing power to the FB107 and performing maintenance or
repair, perform the following steps to start your FB107 and reconfigure
your data. The procedure assumes you are using ROCLINK 800.
Ensure all input devices, output devices, and processes remain in a
safe state upon restoring power. An unsafe state could result in
property damage.
When installing equipment in a hazardous area, ensure that all
components are approved for use in such areas. Check the product
labels. Change components only in an area known to be non-
hazardous. Performing these procedures in a hazardous area could
result in personal injury or property damage.
1. Reconnect power to the FB107 unit by inserting the PWR+ / PWR
power terminal block.
2. Launch ROCLINK 800, log in, and connect to the FB107.
3. Select File > Download.
4. From the Open dialog box, select the backup configuration file (has
extension *.800).
