Factory Reset & Restart
Factory Reset
The Factory Reset will revert an Ethernet Contrio controller back to its
unconfigured, factory-default state by deleting its configuration and clearing
any set IP address information.
To Factory Reset a controller:
1.
Power off the controller.
2.
Apply power to the controller while pressing and holding the
Locate
button. Keep the
Locate
button held for about 30 seconds.
3.
If using an EC-V, the controller will now perform the Factory Reset and
you don't need to perform any of the following steps. If using the EC-4B,
EC-4BV, or EC-8BV, the Boot Menu options should now be displayed and
you can continue to step 4.
4.
Select the 'Factory Reset' option by pressing the corresponding button.
Note that selecting the 'Restart' option will restart the controller without
clearing the configuration and IP address.
5.
The Factory Reset will now be performed.
Restart
Perform the Restart procedure if an Ethernet Contrio controller becomes
unresponsive. This procedure will restart a controller without having to
disconnect power to the device. Confguration and IP address information will
not be lost when performing the Restart procedure.
To Restart a controller:
1.
With the controller powered on, press and hold any button or encoder for
approximately 20 seconds.
2.
The controller will now power cycle and reboot with the current
configuration and IP settings.
NOTE:
There is no Restart procedure for the EC-V controller. To Restart
an EC-V controller, power must be disconnected from the controller
then reconnected, or the PoE device supplying power must be power
cycled.
