In the settings menu there are three options to restore the original factory 
settings.
1. The reset "Settings" option will restore all amplifier parameters and a 
reboot of the amplifier will take place. Note that this type of reset is also 
done at the end of each a firmware update process.
2. The "Settings+IP" option will do the same but additionally also restore 
the Ethernet and U
man
 network IP settings to the above values.
3. The third option "Settings+IP+Presets" will additionally delete all previ-
ously stored or downloaded DSP presets, leaving the amplifier with a 
blank (empty) preset memory. So please don’t forget to make a backup 
of all your user defined presets before choosing this option.
3.1 Mounting 
Use four screws and washers when mounting the amplifier to the front rack 
rails. For mobile use, the amplifier should also be secured using the 19” 
mounting elements on the rear panel.
