Crash Recovery (Intermate101 only)

This procedure is usually only done by specialist technicians.

The Intermate101 has a special software component (G33)
called “Rescue Main” which allows you to set the print server in
Rescue Mode. From there, you can load a fresh copy of the
main code (G32).

a

Turn the unit off by pulling the power supply
jack out of the print server.

b

Start pressing the Test Button in and keep your
eyes on the LEDs.

c

Put the jack back in.

d

Both LEDs will light up.

e

After a few seconds both LEDS will go off. Let
go of the Button immediately.

f

If all is well, the Line LED (green) will light up.
This means that Rescue Main is running. The
procedure will typically have restored the
configuration file

g

You will now be able to contact the print server.
If the IP address has been lost (not likely), you
will have to do something to establish contact
with the print server (as described in consult

“Initial Contact” [page 87]

). The easiest method

would be to use the IMCU, because it can
make contact at the hardware level.

h

Load a new copy of the firmware (see

“Using

FTP Directly” [page 206]

or

“Using the IMCU for

Maintenance” [page 211]

.

i

Reboot.
