Appendix A: Resetting to Factory Defaults
You may reset the non-volatile RAM that stores all configurable SPC options.
This clears all administrator-editable fields on the control screen and resets
all command line configurable options to their default values, including
usernames and passwords.
You may reset the SPC to factory defaults by issuing a command or by pressing
the reset button on the SPC. You must have administrator-level privileges to
issue the command. Using the reset button may be necessary when a forgotten
password prevents administrator login. Either method updates the current
working configuration to what was set at the factory.
To reset the SPC to factory defaults from the command line:
1. At the SPC: prompt, type set cnfg all factory and press Enter .
2. When the command completes successfully, the following message
appears, where n =2 for an SPC800 and n =4 for an SPC1600:
Config changed on n board(s), 0 ignore(s).
To reset the SPC to factory defaults using the reset button:
1. On the front of the SPC, locate the recessed reset button directly below
the Input Current LED. You will need a non-conductive, non-metallic tool
that fits inside the recess.
2. Insert the tool in the recess, then depress and hold the reset button for at
least five seconds. When you first press the reset button, the Input Current
LED changes to two side-by-side horizontal lines in the middle of the
display. Continuing to press the reset button for five seconds begins the
reset, which is indicated by three side-by-side pairs of horizontal lines in
the top, middle and bottom of the display. At this point, you may release
the reset button. When the reset completes, the LED returns to displaying
the cumulative input load.
