SRAM does not preserve data or files external to station

Please note that if a JACE power event occurs when station users have unsaved file changes, say in a Px file or Nav file being edited, those unsaved changes are lost. This behavior may seem different from a battery-equipped JACE entering an ordered shutdown—but it is not.

The practical difference is that a battery-equipped JACE may keep running over a short “power bump”. Station users may be aware of such an event, and react by saving changes (click Save button in the active view). Providing that communications are still established, the file edited may be saved. Or, power may be lost only momentarily, and then remain stable until the user does a normal save.

NOTE: A battery-less SRAM-equipped JACE does not provide a similar save opportunity after a power bump—it is already busy rebooting. Therefore, as a best practice, you should advise system users of battery-less SRAM-equipped JACEs to save often when editing items like Px graphics and Nav files.
