Cable factory reset on RedFox Industrial
It is possible to set the unit to factory default settings by using a standard (straight)
Ethernet RJ-45 cable.
1. Power off the switch and disconnect all Ethernet cables (including copper and
fibre).
2. Connect an Ethernet cable between Ethernet port 1/1 and Ethernet port 1/2 (that
is, connect Ethernet ports 1 and 2 on in the leftmost slot by an Ethernet cable).
The ports need to be connected directly by an Ethernet cable, i.e., not via a hub
or switch. Use a straight cable - not a cross-over cables - when connecting the
ports.
3. Power on the unit.
4. Wait for the unit to start up. Control that the ON LED is flashing red.
The ON LED flashing indicates that the unit is now ready to be reset to factory
default. You now have the choice to go ahead with the factory reset, or to skip
factory reset and boot as normal.
• Go ahead with factory reset: Acknowledge that you wish to conduct the
factory reset by unplugging the Ethernet cables. The ON LED will stop
flashing. This initiates the factory reset process, and the unit will restart with
factory default settings.
• Note! Do not power off the unit while the factory reset process is in
progress. Skip the factory reset: To skip the factory reset process, just wait
for approximately 30 seconds (after the ON LED starts flashing RED)
without unplugging the Ethernet cable. The switch will conduct a normal
boot with the existing settings.
