Description
The primary function of the Rest button is to trigger the
oMG 500 to reboot its operating system which may be
necessary from time to time following configuration
changes or when troubleshooting operational issues. It
can also be used to initiate a factory reset of the oMG
500's configuration by pressing and holding the button
for 30 seconds when it is powered-on.
Finally, the oMG 500 can be configured so that it does
not automatically start when power is applied. When
this option is enabled, the user must manually start the
oMG 500 by pressing this button.
