Revision  E

Operating the controller

Restoring factory settings

Caution

Returning object values to their relinquished defaults during a cold start may 
abruptly turn connected equipment on or off. To prevent equipment damage, 
turn connected equipment off or temporarily remove the output terminal 
blocks from the controller before performing a warm start.

To perform a cold start:

1. While the controller is powered, press and hold the restart button.
2. Remove the power jumper.
3. Release the red button 

before

 replacing the power jumper.

Note

A cold start performed by this method is the same as performing a cold start 
with BACstage or from TotalControl Design Studio. 

Restoring to factory settings

Restoring a controller to factory settings changes the controller as follows:

Removes all programming.

Removes all configuration settings.

Restores the controller to factory default settings.

Caution

Resetting the controller erases all configuration and programming. After 
resetting to factory settings, you must configure and program the controller to 
establish normal communications and operation. 

To reset the controller to factory settings.

1. If possible, use BACstage or TotalControl Design Studio to backup the 

controller.

2. Remove the power jumper.
3. Press and hold the red restart button.
4. Replace the power jumper while continuing to hold the restart button.
5. Restore configuration and programming with BACstage or TotalControl 

Design Studio.
