7. How to reset the firmware update password?
a) Use programming software or the controller’s RUN/STOP pushbutton (if
enabled in the hardware configuration) to place the RSTi-EP Controller
module in Stop Disabled mode.
b) Open a browser window and go to the PACSystems RSTi-EP Controller’s
homepage using the IP address assigned to the controller’s embedded LAN
1 or LAN 2 Ethernet ports. (e.g. http://192.168.0.100)
c) At the PACSystems RSTi-EP Controller’s homepage, select the
Administrator button in the top right-hand corner and select the ‘Reset
Password’ option. Dismiss any security warnings the browser may present
indicating the certificate is not issued by a known certificate authority. The
certificate is dynamically generated by the firmware on each power cycle
(i.e. the certificate is self-signed).
Note: If the controller becomes unresponsive it is recommended to repeat
the process from step (b) again.
d) Press the Run/Stop button on the unit as directed until the page updates.
e) Release the Run/Stop button on the unit as directed.
f) Enter the new firmware update password and confirm it by entering it a
second time. Press OK. The unit will save the password and return to the
homepage. The rules for the password are displayed on the screen.
Note:
• Performing a factory reset operation also resets the firmware update
password to its default value.
