Tools (Application)

The Brivo Application Tools page provides access to two commands that are used only as part of diagnostic

procedures where you might suspect that the panel is not operating correctly or data may have been corrupted. To

access this page:

1. Click

Application to access the Application menu bar.

2. Click

Tools to access the Brivo Application Tools page.

From the pull-down menu, select:

Restart Brivo Apps to shut down the access control applications on the control panel, and then

restart them. Generally, this command should be used only when Brivo Technical Support requests

that you do so.

Reset Brivo Data to erase the local database of credentials, schedules, door settings, etc., and

forces the control panel to reacquire all this information from the Brivo Onair Cloud Server. This

command should be used only if you suspect that the local data has been corrupted, or if requested

by Brivo Technical Support.
