channel.reset()

This function resets the specified channels to factory default settings.
Type TSP-Link accessible
Function Yes
Usage
channel.reset(channelList)
channelList
Details
For the items specified in channelList, the following actions occur:
•
Any closed channels open
•
Additional user delay is set to zero (0)
•
Labels are removed
•
If the channel is forbidden to close, it is cleared from being forbidden to close
•
If the channels are used in channel patterns, the channel patterns that contain the channels are deleted.
Using this function to reset a channel involved in scanning invalidates the existing scan list. The list has to be
recreated before scanning again.
The rest of the settings are unaffected. To reset the entire system to factory default settings, use the reset()
command.
