Reformatting SRAM

When using a “serial shell” connection to a JACE controller with SRAM, a special “alternative boot” option is available. A sub-option allows you to reformat the onboard SRAM installed in the JACE.

You must be near the JACE to make this direct serial shell connection, and also be able to easily power it off and on as needed.

 

NOTE: In most cases the following reformat procedure will never be necessary. When shipped, the SRAM option card is already properly formatted, and does not contain any stored data.However, in rare cases it may be necessary to reformat using this procedure.
