Default How to clear CAI 302 flight log memory?

Some time ago, I was able to fix a friend's problem with a CAI 302 by
clearing out the flight log memory. The procedure involved connecting
to the CAI 302 with a comm program like hyperterm and typing in
something like 'RESET' at the command prompt. I have gotten a couple
of similar requests here at the Sports Class Nationals, but in the
meantime I have forgotten the exact command or commands (getting old
and senile).

Anyone have the procedure handy? If so, could you email it to me at
paynter.5[remove ?

TIA,

You probably want CLEAR LOG. The Cambridge 302 Dataport user's guide
at http://www.cambridge-aero.com/manual...v517_rev21.pdf
contains what you need. But I'm not sure why this is needed. Make sure
people are using the latest version or the Cambridge download
software. A rev or two back they fixed a memory corruption problem in
the download software that could corrupt memory (or at least make
files look corrupted) and prevent downloads. It seemed to affect very
few people, but I did hit it. The problem has not occured for me on
the last few recent versions of their PDA download software. Sorry I
don't have affected version numbers handy, just use their latest
stuff.
