50 can then be done from any location provided that that location is connected to the same network as the EBS-50. It is even possible to do that from a remote location but in that case, a VPN tunnel is required because of safety concerns. The EBS-50 can setup that VPN tunnel by itself, provided that the remote location already has a VPN server running but this is usually not needed. -

Page 13: Reset Switch
6.2 Reset switch The reset switch can be used to reset the EBS-50 to factory default. This can be used for instance when the operator has made a mistake and has accidentally locked the EBS-50 out from the network.
