X-600M Users Manual Appendix A: Restoring Factory Default Settings
Appendix A: Restoring Factory Default Settings
In the event that the IP address or passwords are forgotten, the X-600M may be restored to its original factory
default settings. The restore process restores the IP address to 192.168.1.2, the default admin user name to
admin and the password to webrelay. It also erases all Events, Actions, Scripts, Dashboards and other
settings*. To restore the factory default settings:
1. Remove the DC power from the X-600M.
2. Use a thin, non-conductive object (e.g. Toothpick or plastic paperclip) to press and hold an internal
button located on the bottom side of the unit. Do not confuse this access hole with the hole on the
backside (inside one of the DIN-rail mount ears). The hole on the back side is used to prepare the
module for firmware upgrades as described in the following Appendix.
3. CAUTION: only a gentle force is necessary to activate the button. A tactile feedback can be felt as the
button is depressed.
4. While depressing the button, apply power and wait for about 10 to 15 seconds before releasing the
button. All settings will be back to the original factory defaults. Unlike other ControlByWeb products, the
X-600M's Ethernet LEDs do not blink during this procedure.
After these steps are complete, refer to Section 2.3 Establishing Communications for Setup to begin
reconfiguration of the device.
*In some cases you may have simply forgotten the password and do not want to lose all the other settings you
have made. To preserve the existing settings you must have previously made a backup. Please see Section
4.1.4 for instructions on how to load your previous settings with the username and password reset to their
factory defaults.
