located midway down on the main board. These buttons

board resets the controller. Press-
ing and holding this button for one
second will cause the E2 to reset
and retain all programmed applica-
tions, logs, and other data stored in memory.

Clean Out Button -
The button labeled CLEAN
OUT on the controller is used to perform a function
called
clean out
. Using this button in conjunction
with the Reset Button will cause a clean out, which
is a reset that
erases all data from memory
. The
E2 will re-boot after a clean out with all pro-
grammed applications, logs, and other data erased.
Clean outs are also commonly called Blue “R” resets,
named for the key presses required to clean out Retail
Solutions’ previous generation of controllers, REFLECS.
