System CMOS

The NI 8171 series contains a backed-up memory used to store BIOS
configuration information.

To clear the CMOS contents:

1.

Turn off power.

2.

Remove the controller from the chassis.

3.

Move the jumper on J1 from pins 1-2 to pins 2-3 as shown in
Figure 2-2.

4.

Wait 1 second. Move the jumper back to pins 1-2.

5.

Reinstall the controller in the chassis.

Caution

Do not leave the jumper on pins 2-3. Doing so decreases battery life.
