Reset to Default

When you click the ‘Reset to default’ button the control panel will delete the

User’s preference file and do one of the following:

• If “Shared” preferences exist, they are reloaded and the device is set to this

state.

• If the “Shared” preferences file does not exist, “factory defaults” are loaded

and the device is set to this state.

Erase all Prefs

For technical support purposes you may be required to remove Preference
