The RESET Button
• Press the RESET button until you hear one beep (after about two seconds), then release it. You
will hear one more beep after you release the button.
This resets the NAS’s IP address and password to the default values.
• Press the RESET button until you hear two beeps. After the second beep, continue pressing the
button for five more seconds, then release it. You will hear three quick beeps after you release
the button.
This resets the NAS to the factory default configuration. All settings you have configured on the
NAS, including IP address, password, user accounts, groups, and so on will be reset to the
factory defaults.
The reset process does NOT affect the volume settings, nor data stored on the NAS.
You should periodically back up your configuration file to your computer (see
for details about managing the NAS’s configuration file). You could then restore your
configuration in the event that you or someone else reset the NAS to the factory defaults.
Note: Keep the NAS in a secure location in order to prevent unauthorized reset of the
device.
You may need to close and re-open the NAS Starter Utility to discover the NAS. This is because the
NAS automatically re-acquires IP address information, so its IP address may change. If no IP
address information is assigned, the NAS uses Auto-IP to assign itself an IP address and subnet
mask. For example, you could connect the NAS directly to your computer. If the computer is also
set to get an IP address automatically, the computer and the NAS will choose addresses for
themselves and be able to communicate.
