5.3 Resetting the Central Power Hub
If it becomes necessary to reset the entire Central Power Hub unit, this can be achieved either using the management application
(see The Systems operation page) or the recessed RESET button on the front panel. Using either method it is possible to enact a
basic reset (equivalent to removing and restoring mains power) or a full factory reset.
5.3.1 Device reset from the front panel
This procedure will reset the operation of the Central Power Hub unit, equivalent to a cold reboot. All power outputs will be
removed and then restored in a staggered manner (as defined within the management application). No configuration details will
be changed.
• Use a narrow implement (e.g. straightened paperclip) to press and release the recessed front panel RESET button.
5.3.2 Factory reset from the front panel
This procedure will perform a cold reboot but will also return all configuration details to their factory settings.
Note: The IP address
will be returned to 192.168.1.22 (DHCP will be disabled) and all user entries apart from the main admin will be removed.
• Use a narrow implement (e.g. straightened paperclip) to press and hold the recessed front panel RESET button for 20 seconds.
