Base state:-

An application’s base state is the known, stable state that
you expect the
application to be in before each testcase begins execution,
and the state the
application can be returned to after each testcase has
ended execution. This
state may be the state of an application when it is first
started.
Base states are important because they ensure the integrity
of your tests. By
guaranteeing that each testcase can start from a stable
base state, you can be
assured that an error in one testcase does not cause
subsequent testcases to
fail.
When you activate the recovery system for one or more
testcases, SilkTest
automatically ensures that your application is at its base
state during the
following three stages:
• Before a testcase is run
• During the execution of a testcase
If an error occurs, SilkTest does the following:
- Stops execution of the testcase
- Transfers control to the recovery system, which restores
the
application to its base state and logs the error in a
results file
- Resumes script execution by running the next testcase
after the
failed testcase
• After a testcase completes successfully
The recovery system makes sure that the testcase was able
to “clean up” after
itself, so that the next testcase is run under valid
conditions.

Default base state:-

SilkTest provides a default base state for applications,
which ensures the
following conditions are met before recording and executing
a testcase:
• The application is running
• The application is not minimized
• The application is the active application
• No windows other than the application’s main window are
open

Default base state ensures the following for browsers in
addition to the items
listed above:
• The browser is ready
• Constants are set
• The browser has toolbars, location and status bar
displayed.

Hope this is help full :-)

Base state:An applications base state is the known,stable
state that we expect the application to be in before each
test case begins execution,and the state the application can
be returned to after each test case has ended execution.this
state may be the state of application when it is first
started.

Default Base State:Silk test provides a default base state
for application for applications which ensures the following
conditions are meet before recording & executing a test case.
.the application is running
.the application is not minimized
.the application is the active application
.no window other than the applications main window are open

there is only one default base state(normally the one from
silk test in default.inc)there may be one base state
function in your mainwin_defination but there may be a lot
of application status depending on how you build your
testing frame work.
