RESET WATCHPAX 40
there are occasions when you may want to reset a WatCHpaX 40, for example, if the unit has been
corrupted, or if it’s a rental unit and user-specific info has to be removed between rentals.
there are two levels of reset:
• reset and keep user data. this resets the operating system, display, GpU and capture settings but
retains user data, such as shows and media.
• reset to factory settings. the takes the unit all the way back to the original factory settings‚ you lose
all user data.
IMportant: a reset, regardless of level, is an advanced measure. Make sure you are fully aware of
what data you lose when you reset!
RESET AND KEEP USER DATA
this option resets the system partitions but keeps all user data such as:
• shows
• Media

driver-related settings will be reset to default factory settings such as:

- display mode
- edId caching
RESET TO FACTORY SETTINGS
this resets all partitions to factory settings and all user data will be lost. this level of reset is suitable
when you want to remove all settings between projects.
