This chapter describes how to reset the NVS-30 device using the Reset button
located on the device’s rear panel. At times you may want to reset current NVS-30
settings to factory defaults, please follow the steps outlined below to perform
factory reset.
1.
Use a paper clip to press and hold the Reset button on the rear panel for at least
5 seconds.
2.
The device begins a power-up sequence during which all LEDs illuminate.
3.
The device is ready when all LEDs turn off except the Power, Stream, Record,
and USB port 1 LEDs.
When resetting the NVS-30 using this method, the following device settings will be
reset to factory defaults.
•
Device’s login credentials reset to admin.
•
The device network setting reset to DHCP mode.
Note: You may switch the device to Static IP mode after performing a factory reset
or a simple device reboot, see “Default Static IP”
section in Chapter 3.
You can also use a factory reset to load pre-configured NVS-30 settings from a
configuration file. For more information, see
“

in Chapter 4.

.
Note: When performing a device reboot, all current settings are kept, including the

address and status will be saved to the USB device as a text file. This is a convenient
way to find the device’s IP address.
