If you cannot connect to the cutter or any miss-configuration has happened and you cannot access the cutter, you 
must reset the cutter to the default “Access point” mode and then re-connect to any wireless network in “Client mode” 
again. In order to reset the cutter, you must keep the “Wireless button” and “Right limit button” pressed together for 
3 seconds. When the “Power” button and the “Wireless button” is turned off, you may then release the button. At this 
point the “Wireless button” will start blinking until the network initialization is completed. When the blinking stops you 
are ready to connect to Edge-xx-xx-xx access point in order to use the cutter.
