8.3 Factory Reset
A factory reset will delete an AP’s configuration except for the default set of these five
parameters, as set on the AP’s commissioning web page:
• Management Server URL, which is the address of the default SCP server
• NTP server address
• IPsec enabled or disabled
• Security Gateway address (only relevant when IPsec is enabled)
• Remote traffic selector address and netmask (only relevant when IPsec is
enabled)
Therefore, executing a factory reset will mean that the AP will reconnect to the servers
currently specified on the commissioning web page. If any of these servers are no longer
valid, for example something has been decommissioned, the AP may be unable to re-enter
service automatically after a factory reset. If it necessary to change any of these settings,
physical access to the AP is required, so that it can be connected to a commissioning
terminal.
Note: If the reset button is released before the factory reset starts, the AP will reboot. It will not
return to the factory reset state.
Note: If the AP has been disabled as in section 7.4. It will not be possible to recommission the AP.
The AP will reconnect to the servers currently specified on the commissioning web page.
8.3.1 nano3G S8 AP Factory Reset
1) Use a thin rod to press and hold the reset button.
2) Keep the reset button pressed until the Service LED changes from blinking fast
(50ms on, 50ms off) to blinking slowly (200ms on, 200ms off).
The Service LED blinks fast (50ms on, 50ms off) until the factory reset
commences, then it blinks slowly (200ms on, 200ms off). When the factory restore
process is complete, the LED extinguishes and the AP automatically reboots,
takes the fixed IP address and enables the web interface for commissioning.
