FG 32 DDC – pre release user guide – V1.4 Troubleshoot In order to make sure all the files are copied correctly into the directory, follow below checklist to verify all the files are in place. Checklist point 1. Platform file is in the platform folder. Checklist point 2.
Changing the IP address can only be done via sedona workbench at the moment. Step 1 Login to the FG32 via sedona workbench. Locate the object “IP” under the sedona service folder. Step 2 Go into the property sheet of the “IP” object.
Then a reboot or restart of the VM will erase all the objects in the sedona apps. The second way of restoring the FG32 back to default apps is via ftp client software. This way can be use as well if the FG32 sedona VM is not connectable and the controller keep rebooting due to some incompatible sedona apps loaded.
