Maintenance
The devices are maintenance-free. Cleaning is usually not necessary.
If the protective lens barrel becomes dirty, we recommend that you clean it professionally in
order to achieve a consistent reading performance.
Repair
For repairs, send the optical reader to Siemens without its protective lens barrel, lighting unit,
and other accessories. The current contact details are available via the Siemens Industry
Online Support.

Factory settings

You can restore the configuration of the communication modules to the factory settings at
any time. To reset to the factory settings, you have the following options available:
• Using WBM
• Manually via the reader button
Alternatively, using SINEC PNI, you can also restore only the settings of the Ethernet interface
to the factory settings.
These alternative methods are described below.
10.3.1

Restoring the factory settings via WBM

Requirement
The reader is connected to the PC via Industrial Ethernet.
Procedure
Proceed as follows to reset all settings to the factory settings:
1. In Web Based Management (WBM), open the menu "Device > System".
2. In the "Factory settings" group, click on "Reset to factory settings".
Result: The reader is reset to factory settings and restarted after about 2 seconds.
Note that restoring to factory settings assigns the factory-set IP address to the reader. After
restarting the reader, you may have to assign a new IP address or a new device name to the
reader.
