Type 1 Reset of an ArmorStart EtherNet/IP
You will to perform a Type 1 Reset in the event that the login and password for
the product is lost and forgotten.
A Type 1 Reset will be sent to the product’s identity object. This reset will place
the ArmorStart in an "Out of the Box" configuration (except for those with IP
addresses that are statically configured). The controller will then performs a
power cycle.
In the following example, the user will utilize Rockwell Automation
RSLogix 5000 PLC programming software to create a Type 1 Reset. Other tools
can be used, provided the class, instance, and attribute values can be sent to the
product’s identify object.
1.
Within RSLogix 5000, select
File>New
to create a new project. Ensure the
project is offline.
2.
If an Add-On-Profile (AOP) window is open, click the
Cancel
button to
close it at the bottom of the AOP screen.
3.
Close any internet browser windows, including Internet Explorer that are
being used to view the ArmorStart web browser.
4.
Unplug any inputs and outputs that are connected to the ArmorStart unit.
WARNING:
A Type 1 Reset will cause all parameters and web page login
to revert to their factory defaults. No user date will be saved.
WARNING:
A Type 1 Reset should only be executed when necessary or
when the login and password must be cleared and set to the factory
default setting.
IMPORTANT
For those using an Internet Browser with multiple tabs open, you will
need to close the entire browser window, not just the tab within the
ArmorStart browser.
WARNING:
A Type 1 Reset cannot be done if there is an I/O device
plugged into the product port. This may cause an unsafe state to occur in
the ArmorStart or the environment around the ArmorStart.
