Security
Reset to Factory Defaults, Reset All Passwords
There is a dedicated Reset dialog that allows for selecting any of the following options:
• Reset to the factory defaults, or
• reset all passwords.
This Reset dialog is available at the HMI only (i. e. not via
Smart view
).
Press the »C« key during a cold start until the Reset dialog appears.
For technical reasons, this Reset dialog is available only in English language
(independent of the regional language being used later, after the device has
started).
Note furthermore that the dialog might not appear at all because it has been
intentionally disabled (see below), or the option to reset all passwords has been
disabled.
Reset to Factory Defaults
All records will be deleted and the measured values and counters will be reset.
Exception: The operation hours counter is preserved.
• From the Reset dialog, select »Reset to factory default«.
⇨ There is a confirmation dialog, asking »Reset device to factory defaults and reboot?«
• Confirm with »Yes«.
⇨ The reset to factory defaults is executed, and the device restarts.
Reset All Passwords
It is possible to remove this option from the Reset dialog for security reasons (see below).
• From the Reset dialog, select »Reset all passwords «.
⇨ There is a confirmation dialog, asking »Reset all passwords?«
• Confirm with »Yes«.
⇨ The device starts using the standard password » 1234« .
For security reasons, it is strictly recommended to change the default
passwords immediately to some individual passwords. (See chapter “Changing
Passwords”.
