Resetting the Device
If edgeGate can no longer be reached, e.g. due to a configuration error, the device can be reset to the factory
settings by pressing the reset button at the bottom of the front panel.
This is how to reset edgeGate:
1. Disconnect the device from the power supply.
2. Select a small object to press the reset button.
3. Reconnect the power supply and press the reset button within a few seconds after restart.
4. Keep pressing the reset button until the device confirms the reset procedure after about 20-30 seconds
by simultaneous illumination of the red
RUN
,
ERR
and
SYS
LEDs.
5. Wait until the
PWR
and
RUN
LEDs light up continuously in green. Then the gateway has successfully
booted with the factory settings.
CAUTION
Press the reset button only lightly with a paper clip or ballpoint pen until you feel a
click
of the
reset button. Pressing the reset button with too much force permanently disturbs the reset
button's function!
Note
The reset button is only active for a few seconds during the restart to make sure that the
configuration is not accidentally reset.
Hint
If access to the web server is still possible, you can also reset the gateway to the factory
settings via
Service Settings
Reset
.
