 Packet throughput is polled every 6 seconds. 

4.5 Reset To Default 

At the Main menu, you have the options to reset the VC-412 to its factory default settings. 

The Reset option will reset ALL settings back to factory default; IP Addresses, Gateway 

Address, Subnet Address, Auto Refresh Time, and any other commands issued to the 

VC-412 will be lost by the reset. Use this option only when there is a malfunction of the 

unit that prohibits it from functioning correctly after a reboot or power cycling. 

 

 

4.6 Reboot System 

 

The Reboot System command is used to reboot the OS but does not reset or change any 

settings of the VC-412 and its firmware. On some occasions you will have to reboot the 

firmware. The 

VC-412

 may function improperly after major changes, use the reboot function 

to refresh the

 VC-412

 with the new settings.
