Factory Reset
You may want to perform a factory reset, or hard reset to the Dominion SX unit to revert the configuration to known
defaults. This is useful if the IP address of the unit is no longer known. Using the following procedure, the network
settings of the unit will be reset to the values shown in the table below, and all ports will be reset to 9600 baud, no
parity checking, and no hardware flow control.
Internet Address (IP) 192.0.0.192
Gateway Address 192.0.0.192
Subnet Mask 255.255.0.0
Port Address 23
Note : Factory reset does not remove the user-installed certificate from the unit.
This procedure details the necessary steps to factory reset a unit with a direct connection to another computer, which
eliminates conflicts with other network devices. It is not necessary to remove the device from all networks but it is
up to the discretion of the Administrator as to whether this is necessary.
The procedure for performing a factory reset is:
1. Power OFF the Dominion SX unit.
2. Attach the supplied Factory Reset Connector (serial DB9 female) to the serial DB9 male port on the rear of the
unit
3. Power ON the unit.
4. The unit will restore to factory default settings. This process will take approximately 40 seconds.
5. After 40 seconds, reconnect to the unit with the factory default IP address
192.0.0.192 .
6. Unplug the Factory Reset Connector.
Note : It is advisable to remove the unit from the main network while performing a factory reset.
Should another device on the network have the IP address of 192.0.0.192 , these two devices will
be in conflict.
