7.1.1 Resetting the logger to factory settings
Beside the possibility to reset the network settings, the blue PiraT Mini offers the possibility to
reset the device to factory respectively delivery status, if the logger is in err
or state and there’s
no chance to connect to the logger any more (even after a network reset).
Warning:
Due to the reset to factory settings all data and licenses on the logger will be deleted.
Needed licenses have to be installed on the logger again after this operation.
An actual firmware version has to be flashed after this procedure. This is signaled by the
STATE-LED and a failure message
“FC_FW_UPDATE” at the client.
To reset the logger to factory settings the logger has to be unplugged from power supply.
While you connect the logger with the power supply, press the
[ON / Trigger]
button, until both
LEDs are pulsing.
Note:
If you do nothing, the logger tries to startup normally, in case of the button was pressed
by mistake during plug in.
During the short phase, in which the LEDs are pulsing (for about 10 seconds), quickly press
many times the
[ON / Trigger]
button, until both LEDs are blinking alternately.
The device starts to reset itself to factory settings. This operation will take some minutes. The
blue PiraT Mini will switch off after that automatically.
