Reset Factory-Default Configuration
In some situations (such as a lost password) it may be necessary to return the network clock to its
factory default configuration. A reset configuration button labeled “RESET” is located on the
electronics cover on the rear of the network clock chassis, to perform this function.
To reset configuration to factory default –
1. Depress and hold the reset configuration button on the rear of the clock.
2. Remove power from the device, while continuing to hold the reset button down.
3. Apply power to clock and continue holding the reset button down for five seconds.
4. The network clock device configuration will now be reset, including the password, and the
unit will need to be reconfigured.
