Bypassing Password
If you forget your password you will need to restore the Remote Power Switch (AC) to factory defaults. This
procedure requires physical access to the Remote Power Switch (AC) and will reset all setting changes.
1. Connect you're PC to the Remote Power Switch (AC) through its craft port
2. While holding down the 'Remote Disable' button (on the left side of the unit), restart the unit by turning the
breaker switch (right side of unit) off and then back on. (Hold the 'Remote Disable' button until the unit finishes
restarting)
3. When the unit finishes restarting, you will be able to access the TTY Interface (previous section) without
logging in - press I)nitialize
4. To complete the restore you will need to restart the unit. This can be done with the breaker switch
OR
you can
hold the 'Remote Disable' button until the LED next to it turns green and then restart from the TTY interface
(trying to restart from the TTY without holding the 'Remote Disable' button will not work)
5. At this point you should be able to login normally using the factory default username ("
admin
") and password
("
dpstelecom
").
