You have to be in manual mode, then push the button, then wait for a response 
and push it again.

It has been a while since I did this.
My memory is that when you push the white button you get the IBM equivalent 
of a QUESTION MARK meaning ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO DO THIS then you have to 
push it AGAIN meaning YES.
I do not know how long it waits between pushing it the two times.
I would check to see what the IBM equivalent is of the question mark & if 
that is still sitting on the panel.
