The software allows you to backup back up the device configuration, as well as to make recovery and reset to the factory settings.

...

The selective backup configuration file can be used for mass deployment of monitoring units on a facility when it is expected to use multiple units with identical settings. One monitoring system is set up first after which the settings of this system are necessary to back up. Further backup settings are restored on other systems, and different parameters are set manually.

Backup settings

To back up the current settings to a file, in the System interface go to tab -> "System menu" -> "Export" and push-button "OK" for "Download current settings"

Reset settings

...

This possibility exists in all versions. Factory data reset is carried out using special firmware that can be downloaded from the drivers as the Settings Recovery Tools.

Reset features to factory settings:

  • full reset;

  • network settings reset;

  • user password reset;

Reset firmware installed in the same way like as a usual software upgrade.

...

Starting with version 2.5.0 reset is also possible via the web interface. Go to the tab "System menu" ->About and push tab "OK" for "Reset settings to default values" Image Removed

...

Possible options:

  • for sensors - reset sensors (elements) only;

  • for all - resets all to factory settings;

3) using a switch "Recovery" on the rear panel.

From version 2.5.1 and higher added the ability to return factory settings using a switch NORMAL / RECOVERY .

To return to factory settings, set the switch NORMAL / RECOVERY in the "RECOVERY" position for a time of 5 to 30 seconds.

In 5 s after turning this switch to the "RECOVERY" position, the "ERROR" LED on the front panel lights up. Now return the switch NORMAL / RECOVERY in the "NORMAL" position. The system restored the factory settings and then rebootrebooted.

If till 30 seconds after the ERROR LED lights up switch was not set to NORMAL, then the system will assume that the switch is set to "RECOVERY" by mistake. In this case, the LED starts to flash at a frequency of once per second, recalling this abnormal position of the switch. and even if now the switch is set to "NORMAL", the light goes out, but the restoration of the configuration and reboot does do not occur.

If the switch stays in "RECOVERY" for less than 5 seconds (before the LED lights up), the settings reset, and a restart will not be made.
