Figure 4.10 Load Optimized Defaults
Load Optimized Defaults loads the default system values directly from ROM. If the
stored record created by the Setup program should ever become corrupted (and
therefore unusable), these defaults will load automatically when you turn the PCM-
9587 Series system on.
