Resetting the Gateway to Factory Defaults
Resetting the Gateway to factory defaults resets all configuration settings
and the password. For example, if the Gateway was configured for
wireless operation, the reset procedure will return it to wired operation.
After a reset, the Gateway does not clear any of its power harvest history.
The Gateway may have to be reset when configured improperly. If the
Gateway has spontaneously lost its network connection without any
configuration changes taking place, the connection can usually be re-
established by removing and reconnecting Gateway power (unplugging
and reconnecting the Xanbus network cable). If removing and
reconnecting Gateway power doesn’t work, then reset the Gateway to its
factory defaults as described below.
To return the Gateway to its factory default settings:
1. Close the configuration web page if it is open.
2. Remove power from the Gateway by unplugging the Xanbus network
cable from the Gateway Inverter port.
3. If the Gateway was previously configured for wireless operation,
connect an Ethernet cable between the Gateway Ethernet port and
your router or computer.
4. Use a pen or small screwdriver to press and hold the Reset button.
5. While holding the Reset button, reconnect the Xanbus network cable
to the Gateway Inverter port.
6. Hold the Reset button for an additional three seconds.
7. Release the Reset button.
8. View the Gateway configuration web page and reconfigure the
Gateway.
