8-4 Resetting the G9SP-series Controller
The G9SP Configurator can reset the G9SP-series Controller in the following
two ways. A password is required to execute the reset.
Reset Types
The configuration data includes hardware settings, such as I/O terminal set-
tings as well as the program and system settings.
The G9SP-series Controller stores this data in nonvolatile memory. Some
information, however, cannot be changed once it is set without resetting the
G9SP-series Controller. Select Return to the out-of-box configuration, and
then emulate cycling power to return the information to the default parameter
settings.

Depending on the reset type and the G9SP-series Controller status, resetting
might not be possible. Refer to 9-3 Configuration Lock and Automatic Opera-
tion for information on locking the configuration.
