5.5.6 Hardware factory defaults
This is not a menu item, but the function is the same as the software reset to factory defaults described
above. If you want, you can also perform the “Return to Defaults” operation via
hardware
.
This means you do not need to use the Web interface!
As mentioned, the recessed button labeled “RST” is located on the
front panel, near the PWR jack of Bytton LTE (see the illustration).
But simply pressing the
Reset
button for a short time won’t work!
You must follow the reset procedure described below:
a. First, you must stop the equipment. Take out the plug from the PWR jack connector;
b. Wait for at least five seconds to be sure that capacitors are discharged;
c. Press the RST button and keep it pressed, then power up Bytton LTE (insert back the supply
jack);
d. The green PWR indicator lights up immediately, keep the button still depressed;
e. Wait at least six seconds, until the two center green LEDs (labeled DATA and Wi-Fi) light up
continuously (all theree indicator LEDs must be turned ON);
f.
Now you can quit pressing the RST button!
g. Bytton will perform a hardware reset to factory defaults; it will shut down and then start again
operation, with the factory default settings.
This way of restoring the factory default settings is faster than using the Web interface, but you should
exercise the same care.
Note
:
the “Return to Defaults” option is quite useful when incorrect settings have been performed or when
you have forgotten the IP of the Bytton ICR router. If you don’t know the IP address or if you have
incorrect settings for iptables, you won’t be able to connect to the wireless router to administer it. So you
should perform a hardware “factory defaults”, and Topex Bytton will revert to its original settings, including
the IP address of 192.168.1.1
