18 Operating Instructions, 06/2016, A5E03678333-10
The Reset button is located behind the screw-down cover on the underside of the housing.
The button has several functions:
● Restart of the device
To restart the device, press the Reset button briefly.
Note
If you make changes to the configuration and restart immediately afterwards with the
reset
button, the changes may be lost. If you restart the device using the WBM (menu
command "System > Restart") or using the CLI (command "restart" in the Privileged
EXEC Modus), the configuration changes are always retained.
● Loading new firmware
If the normal procedure with the "Load & Save" menu of Web Based Management does
not work, the reset button can be used to load new firmware. This situation can occur if
there is a power outage during the normal firmware update. You will find more information
in the section "Troubleshooting/FAQ" in the SCALANCE W700 WBM configuration
manual.
● Restoring the default parameters (factory default) Additional information can be found in
the section "Restoring the default parameters" in the SCALANCE W700 WBM
configuration manual.
