AW00097209000 Factory Default Button
Basler IP Fixed Box Cameras 81
4 Factory Default Button
A factory defaults button is available on the back of the camera as shown below. The factory
defaults button is especially useful if you have enabled user management on the camera and you
can no longer remember your administrative password. Using the button resets all of the camera’s
parameters to factory defaults. ALL STORED SETTINGS - INCLUDING THE NETWORK
SETTINGS - WILL BE LOST.
Depending on how your network is configured, you may not be able to access the camera
via your web browser after you set the camera to the defaults. If this is the case, use the Basler
BIP Finder software to locate your camera in the network and to connect to it as described in the
Basler IP Fixed Box Camera Installation Guide.
To use the factory default button:
1. Obtain a plastic stylus or similar non-conductive device that you can use to press the button.
2. Remove power from the camera.
3. Press and hold the default button.
4. Apply power to the camera while continuing to hold the reset button pressed.
5. After you have applied power, continue to hold the reset button pressed for about five seconds.
6. Release the reset button.
7. Wait approximately one minute for the camera to finish the reset process and to reboot.
