2.7 Reboot and Reset to Factory Defaults
Restarting the RPC2 module can consist of a reboot of the system or a reset to factory defaults. To highlight the difference, a
reboot may be required after network or configuration changes. In contrast, performing a reset to factory defaults reverts all
configuration parameters to the original default state. The module can be rebooted manually on the module through the
MPH2 rack PDU's LCDor via the module's reset button or web interface. To locate the reset button access hole on the
module, see "RPC2 Communications Module Ports" on page4 for an illustration of the module.
To manually reboot the module:
Press the reset button once, holding it down for one second. After a short time, the network port status lights turn off briefly,
indicating the module is restarting.
To manually reset to factory defaults:
Press the reset button five times, one second apart. After a short time, the network port status lights turn off briefly,
indicating the module is restarting.
NOTE: Use a paper clip to press the reset button.
To reboot from the module's web interface:
1. From the side navigation tree of the System tab, click Settings.
2. Click the Reboot icon, then press OK
to confirm the reboot.
NOTE: The Reboot icon appears on any System tab window where a reboot is required.
To reboot from the on-board LCD:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Information icon and press the Select key.
2. Use an arrow key to highlight Reboot and press the Select key.
3. Use the arrow keys to highlight an up or down arrow on the bottom-left and press the Select key to highlight
Reboot.
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Play button and press the Select key.
5. At the confirmation screen, use the arrow keys to highlight the up or down arrow, and press the Select key to
highlight Yes/Reboot Now, then press the Select key to reboot the system.
To reset to factory defaults from the on-board LCD:
NOTE: The LCD screen reset to factory default is only available for the MPH2 rack PDU. If you are using an RPC2
installed in an MPH or MPX rack PDU, you can only perform a reset to factory defaults using the recessed reset
button on the module.
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Information icon and press the Select key.
2. Use an arrow key to highlight the Reboot/Restore-Defaults icon and press the Select key.
3. Use the arrow keys to highlight an up or down arrow on the bottom-left and press the Select key to highlight
Restore Defaults.
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Play button and press the Select key.
5. At the confirmation screen, use the arrow keys to highlight the up or down arrow, and press the Select key to
highlight Yes/Reboot to Default, then press the Select key to restore the system default settings.
