    Customers are advised to follow these instructions provided in the customer letter to configure the CARESCAPE Bx50 monitor to store snapshots locally only and to prevent the PDM from starting to store the snapshots. A PDM that has exceeded the snapshot quantity and becomes unresponsive to CARESCAPE Bx50 monitors can be reset by connecting it to a Solar or Transport Pro monitor and doing a discharge.
